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,

  • Sourcing Specialty Tool - T40159

    Hey,

    First post here and probably one of many... I was reading erWIN for the removal of a sump on a 3.6 passat and saw it requires specialty tool T40159 to remove 3 bolts on the gearbox side (I believe its an extra long triple square round-head M8 to reach past the flywheel).

    Just curious if anyone knows where I can get one of these at short notice, or possibly rent/borrow(with a worthwhile deposit of course) from any users in the Sydney Metro area?

    Cheers

    I looked at an image of this tool. It's beautifully sculptured with a narrow-waisted shaft. However I don't see why a normal long triple square M8 socket available at many tool shops couldn't do the job. The head is the widest part, so the diameter of the shaft shouldn't matter. Or am I missing something?
