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,

  • Handy tip - Rear wiper plastic cover.

    Just a tip.

    My 9N3 polo was missing the plastic cover on the rear wiper, the part that goes over where the spindle/bolt is.
    It turns out the part from a MK5 golf or similar aged VW fits.

    I found this by going to the local car scrapper/recycling place.

    Seems that there are two different sizes, and the 9N3 needs the larger one if you ever compare them side by side.

    Handy if you are seeking this part, especially if you want it to colour match as buying new you would need to replace the whole arm otherwise they would not match due to sun aging/fading.
