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,

    If you read 4/5 of my posts, you’ll see I’ve fast become an anti vw advocate. It still doesn’t change my opinion regarding the brake pedal being normal enough.

              Im sure you will be successful, NOT LOL

              If they cant get towing limits explained sensibly what chance has one person got of a major design change which the other several million are happy with ROFL

              Next will be wanting carpet design changed as heel has worn a hole in it from not ever lifting his foot off it.

              Oh the problems

                  Why do you all have to make this forum so toxic? Forums are a place for asking questions, voicing opinions, and sharing knowledge; but the moment you start making blatant personal attacks it just reflects poorly on you.

                    A bit of dark humour doesnt go amiss especially on subjects like this

                      Went for a drive this morning and took notice and even driving in thongs could swivel foot to work both pedals without lifting foot or changing position of my heel. Damn now I will wear out the carpet LOL

                        Interesting observation Mitch I did feel like noticed this when i first got the car but I have got used to it now. One thing I have noticed though is the steering wheel adjustability is poor! It does not pull out far enough meaning I have to drive with my seat slightly more forward than my ideal driving position or drive with dead straight arms!

                          How tall are you then as I'm 6ft 2 and have no trouble. I also have long legs but with the electric seats have no trouble getting a good position and the seat isnt right back nor is the steering wheel right out but I do have it lowish

                            5 ft 9, I also own a golf 7 and can get the steering wheel closer to my body.

                              LOL me too, but the car just feels too damn good to drive!

                              Had a shetbox Ford Equinox for a week in Tasmania, holy shet it's a POS.

                                I wish I had bought the 162. I really thought the diesel would have the better low end. I was so, so wrong. I have no bottom and top ends (top end expected, and for a diesel it’s ok) Lose, lose!

                                If I had, I’d probably be able to be a bit more positive. I agree, the ‘feel’ of the car is nice.
