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,

  • Turbo backfiring

    Hi all,

    I have a bit of a problem as I believe I'm getting a bit of turbo backfiring. It's not all the time but I don't want it to corse damage.

    If anyone has had this in the past what did they do to fix the problem?

    Can you get a video clip of it happening so we can understnad what you are talking about?

    Is it just the exhaust pop that the performance oriented engines make i.e. Golf GTI?

      Or at least describe the problem in detail so we can get an idea of what you mean?
