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,

    Hello Everybody,

    I have recently noticed that my Tig is blowing out hot/cold air, even when the heating-cooling system is turned off. It is quite irritating when you are driving and there is hot air blowing at you. So any advice? Straight to the dealer?

    Regards,
    ABT

    Push the recircilate button on the the AC controls. Should close off the vents from the outside.

      This guys onto it! I was told by my dealer that it is a safety feature and you have to press "Air Care" or "recirculation" every time. I drive past a mushroom farm everyday so I quickly called my dealership when I found it automatically was venting from outside.

        I have a severe dislike for this also. Should not be blowing cold air when set and synced , in my case to 24 (cold Melbourne mornings) Should not have to press recirc button, air just should not blow when not necessary. Constantly having to change settings is not what I would call climate control.

              I hate having air blowing on my face at any time so the vents are always aimed elsewhere. Doing that I never have to touch the AC/heating controls at all.

                Does anyone find that the seat belt buckle on the drivers side stick out too high. Find it uncomfortable when resting my left hand on my leg as my hand touches the diagonal part of the belt. Probably the same on the passengers side as well. Hard to explain this, lol. Didnt have this issue with previous vehicle.
