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,

  • Battery

    After only 6.5 years my Passat’s AGM battery is failing.i thought i’d get longer especially since it’s an AGM, disappointing to be honest. My fathers 2007 Passat only recently changed his original battery. I suspect the fact it’s only a 69ah battery is part of the problem, i mean why do Mercedes and other models come with 80ah batteries? My car is fully loaded with heated seats and heated steering wheel etc.

    Anyway my question. My battery is in the boot. I noticed it has an extra screw hole for a larger battery, does anyone know if a 80Ah would fit for sure? Anyone on here fit one or did their car come with one fitted?
