Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • MK6 118TSI 2010 3000 rpm Rev Limit

    So I've got the ever so reliable GOLF CAVD engine with a DSG and 80% of the time it's great. However 20% of the time it decides it won't rev over 3000rpm in any given gear. It's quite annoying when trying to overtake and realising you've got no power as soon as the turbo spools up. Anyone know of this issue, there's no engine codes or warning lights popping up when it happens either.

      Have a look here, someone with the same car with the same issue. Looks like an issue with the transition from supercharger to turbo causing the issue. The flap or clutch which transitions from the supercharger to the turbo failing.

      Engine holds 3,000 RPM randomly...
