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,

            Of course - all the cool kid CSGs would hang out.

            Actually based on forum buys it seems white and CSG are the two sellers right now.. a mk7 driver in a red GTI will probably be the unique guy this time around!

              Just by seeing a midnight blue one the other day at the dealer. To me it is the best colour. Looks bloody awesome!

                    • The Official &quot;I have ordered/received my new MK7 Golf&quot; Thread

                      Last night I noticed 4 circles on the front windscreen and 3 on the rear. They seem to be etched into the window. Washed the car today and I can't get them off.

                      As I've had the car for 2 weeks and never touched the windows I can only assume they were there at the time if delivery.

                      Anyone have this problem? If so what did you do?

                      • erm, well I checked very carefully and pointed out faults while the car was still in the showroom. You can try pointing it out to the dealer but they wouldn't have to do anything about it, just depends on how nice they are I suppose.

                          Where on the window and how big/small are they?

                          I know I have a few on mine right down the bottom of the front window. I think they are there by design though as they show up when the window starts to fog up. It is an indicator to turn on the de humidifier.

                          • Could have been the suction grippers used to fit the glass at the factory. Are they spaced evenly across the glass?

                              I haven't measured them but I would guess about 100mm

                              I will have another look tonight and confirm the position of each circle. From memory, on the front there are 2 in the centre and at the rear there are 3 scattered near the bottom.

                                I thought if that briefly, but they are on the inside. The suction caps would surely be placed on the outside.
