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,

  • The mid spec Mondeo I had with my last job had colour changing interior lights which sounds cool until the kids work it out

    • I hired some sort of mid size GM in the US 2 years ago with led colours youbcouod control from the head unit.
      Might have been a Malibu.
      The effect was extremely naff.

      • I was playing with the system in the new E-Class Merc. a few weeks ago. It's a similar design / idea to the systems above and was mega awesome. I love the idea... especially as I have multi-coloured LED strip lighting all throughout my house. However... all things considered, I'll take the active info display over the coloured lights any day!

        As with all things in life... you can't have it all!

          • Hi folks, I'm new here, and wasn't able to find these answers in the thread. I spotted one of these at my work car park. I couldn't find out who owns it, so came here for some questions...

            - what's the interior storage like, particularly the centre console, and is there a place for glasses?

            - I'm assuming it has electronic park break, where is the switch located? (Bloody Subaru is next to the seat warmers...)

            Well done all those folks in their new rides, certainly has the potential to turn heads.

              Hi Mate!

              1. Storage is good. The centre console has a decent sized bin... which houses the USB and AUX ports. There's a few other odds-and-ends storage compartments as well. I have the pano roof, which I believe misses out on the overhead sunglasses holder on no roof models.

              2. Electric park brake is located just forward of the centre console bin, located to the left of the centreline. It's clear of everything else. Easy to use and doesn't impinge on any other switchgear.

              Hope it helps.

                Thanks for sharing your views and the answering the questions from those of us still dreaming about the 206TSI! The specs mentioned that the Luxury Package has park assist, but no mention if it is standard on the 206TSI. Can you confirm? Thanks.

                  Hi Mate

                  Yep... it's included on the car! It's just to the left of the hazard lights switch. I've not actually used it yet. I had it on my GTI... used it once, never used it again.

                      I've recently re-discovered some classics Aussie rock (the joys of an Apple Music subscription)... Aussie Crawl amongst it!

                      I really like his newer acoustic albums... basically, because I can understand him. I defy anyone to listen to the original version of 'Hammerhead' and tell me what he's saying!

                      But, I digress...

                          It's going to be worth the wait. What did you order?
