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,

  • Broken wiper arm stud.

    Hi,
    vehicle is 2007 polo match 1.6
    stupid me broke my wiper arm stud on the linkage side. Does anyone know if this part can still be purchased from VW or am I going to have to hunt throughout the wreckers? I would call myself but its sunday and I'm a bit pissed at myself.

      it was hard as hell to undo so I think it was over tightened to begin with and I just finished the job while putting it back on. It was a 1/4 drive ratchet to so it didn't need much. either that or I'm stronger than i thought. do you have a guestimate on howmuch a whole linkage is?
