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,

  • Air Con Issue

    Hi Guys,
    I recently purchased 2007 GTI Polo and it’s a lot of fun to drive!
    However last week I turned on the car and my air con suddenly stopped being cold after working wonderfully.
    The heater works perfectly fine and the air comes fine out of the vents.
    I thought it would just need a regas and I had a mechanic come out to do this.
    After 10mins and not much checking he just said the air con compressor needed to be replaced and it would cost $1400
    Normally I would take someone at their word however this guy wasn’t very pleasant to deal with from his arrival so I’m wondering if there is any way for me to confirm this information.
    It’s not a huge issue more like an inconvenience in the summer days and when it rains and windscreen fogs up!
    Any advice here would be amazing I’m in Sydney by the way.

    I can send you up a secondhand compressor from a working car. Be much cheaper than a new one obviously.

    Message us on facebook. We break a few polos. Gavin
