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,

    • Can't really blame the dealer for that... they don't have much say in when it'll get delivered to them...

        No but a good dealer would manage your expectations better

        • Yeah - a good dealer would tell you it'll be 4 weeks. Then the customer will come here and have people tell them that's ridiculous and it only took 10 days for them. Then the customer is annoyed at the dealer anyway... they're stuffed both ways

            True but I still prefer to be disappointed at the idea of 4 weeks than pissed at an actual weeks delay

            • The thing was last Thursday he told me the car will arrive in the shop on Monday. He mentioned it takes a few days plus he wasn't working tue and wed so by Friday it would be ready for pick up. I called him today on the status and he said the car hasn't arrived yet. Courtesy call on Monday would've been nice to at least not get my hopes up throughout the week. Ahh can't do anything now but to keep on waitin...... Been doing this for 6.5 months now

                    • Picked up the new addition to the family this morning. Spent the day driving around Sydney, then back to the central coast. So far I am thoroughly impressed. Car feels like a dream to drive (compared to my last bomb). Can't wait to put some more klms on it ASAP. Note the car was on topeka for the earlier post.

                              Don't discourage them from talking about their new cars and posting pictures... I rather enjoy living vicariously through them while waiting for my car!

                              • Was told by my dealer today that 'if all goes according to plan' (whatever that means......), I should have my GTI by the end of this week!!!!!

                                FYI - There seems to be an 'explosion' of GTIs across QLD this week. Australs had about 8 (mainly 3dr and plus all but one was a 2010 build) and Norris had about the same number (only 1 appeared to be 2011 build)....

                                Wonder where they were hiding all this time.......
