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,

    Is it coming all the way down at the rack or is it coming from the steering column somewhere?
    Reason I ask is my clockspring was slightly noisy. I took the opportunity to replace it when I was putting in my new steering wheel, but as yours is integrated with the stalks and steering wheel control module it may just need some lubrication.
