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,

    GOLF waterpump leaks problem for YEARS ---why not solved
    This would have cost VW millions if under w'tee and more by way of reputation.
    Can any VW whistle-blowers insiders answer ?


    If I knew of this problem I would ask for a signed explanation and evidence that it have been fixed before taking delivery.

    Mk8 is still too new for waterpump issues to be discussed on here as any premature failures would be covered under warranty - but id bet my left nut that they are still made of plastic and will only last about 50-60,000km (at best) before they start to leak.
