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've had the car for about 3 weeks now, and absolutely love it. The road I mostly drive is winding over hills, and gives me the opportunity over about 30km to test the power and handling of the car. Great ride and features - couldn't be happier with it.

    I have ordered the DRL's that Snerlo posted up recently, plus interior LED's, puddle light LED's and R36 badged centre wheel caps and valve stem dust covers.

    Will get a VW towbar fitted at some stage, but I need to be sure of a tidy install before pushing the go button. Have seen a few ugly looking results. There were some pics recently on a thread about exhausts that just happened to show a very tidy towbar install. That's what I'm after.

      Man, I love the "Cargo Management System", I'd love to know why NZ got this option and the AU cars didn't...

      Great looking car mate, same colour as mine too - I reckon its the best colour for these cars, but, I AM biased!!

        Yes the CMS is great. Some guy in an office at VW Australia probably didn't tick the box on the standard spec sheet - could be as simple as that.

        Initially I wasn't too fussed on the Icelandic Grey and I didn't have any choice, but it has grown on me and I really like it now. My other car is bright yellow so I'm not averse to the bold colours, although I don't think yellow would work on the R36. Jakeys Candy White looks really nice, and Biscay Blue also looks good. It's a great car whatever colour you've got!

          Still loving my R36. No problems except other people damaging it.

          Will be ticking over 100,000 km this week.
