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,

  • Electrical buzzing sound when in 2nd & 3rd gear

    Hi all,

    There is a slight but noticeable electrical buzzing sound coming from the engine bay when in 2nd & 3rd gear.

    Any idea what this could be?

    If it’s around 2000rpm it’s likely fuel line rattle. There is a service bulletin for it - dealer should fix. Google will help too

      Thanks Timmy, I will raise this when I take it in for a service next week.

      Do you know the bulletin number that this issue relates to?

        Don’t know the bulletin number but very common problem, they should know what you’re talking about if you ask them to check it.

          service centre said it was a loose air vent in the drivers footwell.
