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,

  • Find radio code

    The code for my OG radio is nowhere to be found. How do find out what it is without paying a fortune?
    I have the radio serial number and VIN.

    Your Eurovox 4680, right?
    Those old units don't even have EEPROM, just a combination of diodes.

        When putting the stock unit back in, I found installing the unit and starting the car unlocked the code automatically, just turning it on via ignition auxiliary presented the code prompt.
