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.

Ran out of petrol
Semi on purpose. Wanted to see just how far I could get after it says "0km till empty" -- managed to squeeze out another 43km.sigpic

shouldnt be any worse for a turbo than any other NA car.Originally posted by noone View Post
the only reason why its bad is it drags all the crap from the bottom of your tank through your fuel system.... But since your cars are relatively new, shouldn't really be an issue

There are few things more satisfying in life than finding a solution to a problem and implementing it

I heard theat if you run out of petrol, it will create vacum in the injectors and it will damage them and it is expesnsive to replace them as well... So dont run you car too empty!Comment

I had a jerry can with me. Once I ran out, put in 10 litres.
Yeah, it's bad for all those reasons you've listed. Also apparently the fuel pump uses the fuel as a coolant so when you're really empty, there is a chance of burning out the fuel pump.
As Golfman said, newer cars generally won't suffer these problems. Which is why I decided to carry out this little experiment now, just so I know.sigpic

Just bought a 3yr/60k extended warranty from VW Australia to kick in this Nov. Piece of mind considering i've had a radiator replaced and gearbox rebuild in the last year, amongst a few smaller warranty jobs. Would rather have spent it on mods heheh
