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,

                    • This may be a stupid question, but why would some cars develop the noise and not others? The reason I ask is, I'm not sure if I've got it or not. I don't think I hear anything abnormal, but should I ask the dealer to check?

                        • Should I enquire with my dealership about the clip now? While not very annoying, I'd love to rid my car of this sound!

                            • VW Barloworld in Bayside are a joke. I've been waiting over 4 months for a clip from those guys, and the service manager just extends the due date of the part every time I email him.

                                just heading home from Barloworld.
                                As i was about to take the mechanic for a test drive, i was explaining the issue.
                                He knew right away what i was on about, and said theyve the part on order, with about a two week lead time

                                didnt even need a test drive

                                After a long wait, here's a follow up to my post above.

                                The issue totally fell off my radar for the last few weeks. The noise still persists, and every time i went for a drive I said to myself "I really should call up VW to chase it up", and then either forgot about it, or when I did remember it was too late in the day to call them.

                                Well, while nursing my hangover after yesterdays festivities, I actually remembered to give them a call today, and was told that the part had arrived yesterday! However the earliest booking I can get is either 24th Nov (no loan car) or 9th Dec with a loan car.

                                So, it looks like this issue will hopefully be fixed in the next few weeks Maybe me forgetting to call them, and therefore not hounding them, has worked out in the end
