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,

      Yeah, they should be paying us to take them off their hands.

      Come on! It’s a 10% discount! It’s got more equipment than my MY15 R has and costs less than it did.
      Looking for:- RS4 B7 Avant.
      Current:- Amarok V6 Sportline; Mazda CX-9 Azami AWD

              How do you get it to idle under 1k rpm in sport on the DSG? My R sits around 1100 rpm. Maybe a GTI/R difference.

              • Can anyone please confirm if the 7.5 maps have traffic information (eg. just like BMW's iDrive / Google Maps showing the road as red for heavy traffic)?

                          • The advice is not correct...the system does work in Aus including showing heavy traffic.

                              • I enabled traffic on my 7.5 R via odb11, works well showing red line for heavy traffic. Also waze on android auto also works.
