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 keep thinking I'll change. Did really like the m140i but I've always wanted the r so I know I'm just lying to myself and I'll wait it out.

      Same here, but my screen shot from the dealers system says ‘arrival at importer 22/01/18’. I was originnaly told mid-Dec then mid-Jan. Threatened to cancel and they came back with the screenshot confirming. Still don’t believe them until it comes out of the factory mid next month.

          Yeh I've been nervous for a while and probably will be until I'm behind the wheel. It'll be good to get before the summer is over.

            I get your point but....summer is the worst time of year for owning a turbo car. Once the air temp is over 28 degrees you can wave bye bye to huge swathes of your torque curve.

                Same, though the dealer did send me my vin number 3 or so weeks ago, so I'm guessing it's built. Not on a boat yet though.

                  I meant. Did you order it with or without sunroof.

                    • Hey Mr T, I have a feeling a few dealers aren’t quite telling potential customers the truth regarding delivery dates. Feel for you. I’ve ordered a Blue wolf wagon with sunroof, back in June and from back then was told 22/01/2017 arrival at importers.

                      On another note have you signed a contract? I’ve only put the standard $500 deposit nothing since.

                        Wow so lucky. Sounds like dealers are telling some tall stories of shortages.

                          Yes have signed a contract but the dealer will refund if the car if its not on the boat by the end of November.

                          • There’s a blue 7.5 wagon on Carsales. The dealer has to get an award for the worst photography skills of all time. Ever.
                            Mine should be here a a couple of weeks

                                Mine has just hit Melbourne. 2 days until Port Kembla.

                                My patience is wearing them.
