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,

  • MY2013 TDI Tiguan - Oil leak at lower intercooler hose

    Hi,
    I picked up my tigger from the dealer after its 60,000 click service.
    They said that they were concerned about oil leaking from the lower intercooler hose. I believe them because I was starting to get oil drops on the floor over the last month and the engine sounds a bit odd when I lift-off the throttle.

    Anyway, they said they've cleaned it up and now want me to drive it until Monday (I have a Sydney to Canberra trip set down for Friday) so they can diagnose it.

    Since I can't risk being stuck on the Hume Hwy needing a tow truck (and possibly a new engine) and my faith in the dealer is waning rapidly, I did a search and found Sydney Diesel Centre.

    Has anyone used them and if so, were they ok? If not, is there anyone else in Sydney that isn't a VW dealer that they'd trust?

    This is frustrating because I planned to do a trade-in at the end of January.
