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,

  • Spare key

    Hi all, one of the things that irked me when I bought my B7 was the lack of spare key.. Dealer proposed to do one but you know the saying once money is parted with all promises are as good as the paper it's written on.

    Question is where can I get a spare that's not going to cost >$500?

        I don't know of anyone in ACT but there could be an Auto Locksmith that could do it, you won't be saving much over the dealer though. Also any key programmed to your car that didn't get ordered though the dealer can cause you issues later down the track.

        I think you are best off pressing the dealer for it. They aren't cheap as you know.

          Here in The ACT there are 2 dealers
          1) about $500ish
          2) $360 for key blank and $80 for programming.
