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,

      Not sure if this is a thumbnail I've attached or full size (this Mac I've had to start using is all so foreign to me).

        That looks awesome, they really need to offer them with more lift and smaller wheels. There’s no point to 18” wheels with low profile on a vehicle like this, not sure why they thought 19” on the Wolfsburg was a good idea.

            Yes their 19 x 8.5" the cars stance looks good with them. That way I can't scratch the originals

              I would have preferred a lighter colour like our old one but this was too good a deal to pass up. Full service history, new tyres at 41k and very clean. There is not a single mark on the wheels, couple of tiny door dings. But the one thing I do miss is the paddle shift.
              Looks the goods! Congrats - sounds like a great deal. Didn't realise they don't have paddle shifters - that's unfortunate as it's nice to have the option to shift down a gear.

                It’s only on the Wolfsburg model.... but then you get the povo lights

                  Giving black beauty a wash this evening and I noticed this was flapping loose.



                  Anyone know what kind of double sided tape would remedy this?



                  In other news it looks so nice washed.

                      The have body tape at Supercheap. I use it to stick on the number plates rather than drill extra holes.

                      Roof and gutter type silicone would also work

                        Was it originally mounted with a tape or an adhesive?

                        if tape - then pretty much any external-rated mounting tape will work

                        if adhesive, then Selleys Plastics Glue - Household Adhesive | Selleys Australia

                          Looks to be a 1-2mm thick black DST. I just wasn’t sure of the the grade etc needed, don’t want to lose it down the track. I think I was lucky it came off in the driveway while washing.

                              Wife called me today from the weekly shopping center run, car had a warning light neither of us had seen before



                              A quick little search showed it as emissions warning lamp. I told her to go straight to local dealer (under warranty)

                              Test came back as glow plug resistance on cyclinder 2 too high. Was removed and replaced. I have no idea if this is related to raspy sound issue. I have not test driven it yet to see if there has been a change.

                              Just posting here so I don’t forget it happened.

                              Bonus was they topped up the Ad Blue while it was in so I don’t have to worry about it.

                                How does the Wolfsburg have povo lights? They are full LED just don't swivel (which I had on my previous car and found useless).
