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,

    Tells you everything about your car.

    Remotes your car.
    What’s the benefits? What does it tell me that I don’t already know?

    Maybe I’m just old school (gen X) but I like my cars/bikes and driving/riding to be a separate experience from my mobile phone! Other than BT for hands free calls, I don’t use my phone in the car. And when I’m sitting on my couch, or out for dinner I really don’t want to be reading an app on my phone! Lol

        Lol. So “just cause” then? 😛

        I think a lot of this sort of thing is mostly gimmick for marketing. The younger gens all go “ah cool” when someone says “you’re always connected”.

        I wonder how they’d handle no internet, phones and apps sometimes.

        Man I sound like an old fart! Hahahaha

                Oh dear! My mobile phone sits in the car permanently and never gets looked at for months at a time. Am I missing out on something? I can't remember the last time I lost a car and couldn't find it, mind you for some of them it might have been a good idea.

                  Hahahahahahaha! Ironically because they were on their phone and distracted from where they're parked?

                      Awesome!! I have pre paid phone and last year it started with $15 credit and it had the same $15 without additional credit being added 12 months later. I am really into mobiles, I had to carry three of them in my last job and that cured me of ever using one again unless I absolutely have too.

                        The only thing stopping me from not going back to a small flip phone, is that I rely on the amazing cameras in the modern smart phones too much. My DSLR and my other digital point and shoot cameras gather dust. I have no need for them any more.
