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,

    • I know that it is illegal to use fog lights in WA but... Has anyone installed fog lights in their Golf just "to look pretty"...

      I understand it sounds stupid but did anyone added unconnected fog lights to their front grille, such as :

        Hey Mate,

        I installed my own RNS510 the other day.. it's dead easy.

        I'd be happy to help you do it one day if you order it from eBay.

              Yep but I don't have a cable.

              It will still work without the coding, just won't get the display on the MFD. But I found a nice guy on here who is letting me use his cable to code my stuff too.

                Was wondering, whats the maintenance like for the APR Carbonio filter? How about replacement filters? That said, the same for BSH, etc.

                • I believe that a simple wash with warm soapy water is enough for the APR panel filters. They are a foam filter (not cotton like K&N which need a dedicated cleaner and reoiling). Obviously make sure that the filter is dry before youre install it.

                      A GTI Carbonio owner would be the best person to speak to. R = panel filter. GTI = pod filter.

                        What was the final price before shipping? I've got my eye on the same items but haven't decided where I'll buy from yet.

                          • I didn't ask the right question, meant after. In any case, just looked it up myself hehe (714.69 shipped to vic). Didn't realised they'd started stocking Mk6 R bits.
