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,

    Good idea.. this unit is very powerful doubt the 12 volt unit would be as strong

                    • 5K1RX6/11 - What does this mean?

                      Hey Guys,

                      Still a newbie, and wondering what '5K1RX6/11' means?

                      I'm about to sign the contract for a new GOLF R later this week, and on the contract it says: VOLKSWAGEN 5K1RX6/11

                      Is this still a MY12? so Bluetooth and MDI are standard?

                      Thanks,

                      Eddie

                        • hey buzuki,

                          Thanks for the reply. Good to know it was built this year.

                          I do have a follow up question, would this be a MY12? even if it was built this year? (as opposed to a MY11 built in 2011)

                          • It will be MY12 if it is built from June onwards. If you are signing a contract for one on the forecourt it will be MY11 I would imagine. If you plan on waiting months for the delivery it will probably be MY12. Best to check with your dealer before you sign.

                                thanks Ozram,

                                Just called up the dealer, and he told me that it is a MY12 (bluetooth and MDI are on it). He also said that the the MY12 code is not available in the system yet, and will update my contract accordingly once it becomes available.

                                CANT WAIT FOR MY R!!!
