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,

    I'll be avoiding on my build. Just the additional cost and upkeep for not much benefit in my view.

    Also in Melbourne and I doubt heat will be an issue though if you want it. I lived in Sydney and had seat warmers in the Polo GTI. Now that was pointless!

      I have heated seats and live in Sydney, I use them all the time on the way to football training and matches. Great way to warm up the hammies

        Hadn't thought about that! As not a footballer myself. But makes sense!

        So the sunroof in the Tiguan is a panoramic sunroof or a standard one? I'm yet to see one with the sunroof come through my dealerships.

          It's a large panoramic one.

            So went and did a test drive today on a 110tdi Comfortline with panoramic sunroof, it was enough to convince me to add the option. Dealer has confirmed it won't affect delivery time and my car is expected to land in Melbourne mid July with delivery hopefully by the end of that month.

            On a side note found the 110tdi was not bad at all, had a bit of go, very quite for a Diesel. It was optioned with DAP so first drive with that and loved the ACC, very cool!

            Did notice there was a little wind buffeting at 100km with the roof wide open, a slight opening on any of the windows fixed that straight away. All in all was very impressed and hanging out for the car to be built so I can watch it travel over the high seas daily, who am I kidding it'll be hourly.. lol

              Nice! May do that at my dealership when we have some with sunroofs in stock before making the decision myself.

                positive: airflow and light

                    anyone with a sunroof on their Gen2 Tig want to try to see if "convenience closing" closes the sunroof along with the windows?

                    (yeah there's a thread about this but no-one seems to have commented on whether theirs works or not)
