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 think he's saying something about when people change their brake pads they don't follow instructions properly and it engages the electronic brake system and I'm assuming he's worried this might happen at the place which he owns which is why he now supervises his staff to make sure it doesn't happen.

          Is this another case of stupid pointless technology only complicating the ownership experience? What are the benefits of an electric parking brake on any car, especially a hot hatch? From my observations, the freeing up of space for oddment storage hasn't actually resulted in any additional storage in the MkVII, so what is the point of it? Can anyone advise will I miss the handbrake in my MkV GTI when it will be sold later in the year?

                      Nope. Just normal dials and a digital readout if you choose the setting on the MFD screen between the odo and speedo

                          Have an 86 GTS at the moment and become used to the digital Speedo. Too many speed cameras around Melbourne....

                            Pretty damn big lol. You'll find it on the screen in the middle of the speed and rpm dial
