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,

    Sadly have failed the Eye test for my licence so Tig is sold and Ive bought an E bike and a white stick.

    Wife has been appointed head driver and I will have to go in her Kamiq.

    Not a lot of point in posting as wont be up to date with stuff any more

    Will just haunt the Kamiq thread occasionally as cant modify a lot in them unfortunately.

    Have enjoyed my time helping the odd one and the sparring with a few others LOL

    Cheers

    Cheers Hillbilly.

    I enjoyed your point of view.

    Sad that your eyesight has failed but at least you still can get around with the wife.

    Take care and best wishes.

          I will also miss your point of view & am sorry to hear about your medical situation. I will be 80 this year &
          have to rely more & more on my family to live life. While I still enjoy working on my cars, everything takes 4 times
          what it should & sometimes I don't have the strength in my hands & arms to complete some jobs without calling
          my son in to help.
          Take care as you adjust to the future.
          Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

            All the best of health Graham, I have shift my centre of gravity slightly into a 2023 X-Trail E-Power. While waiting to sell my tig, enjoying the linear drive and low fuel consumption.

                Thanks Graham for your insights over time. Always knowledgeable about coding, and your views about sticking to servicing schedules and correct oils. Our T Cross may benefit from your coding skills; if you would still like to tinker about. I'm at Maroochydore so I could pop up and see you in the future if you are interested in keeping your hand in. Thanks and All the Best- John
