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,

      If I remember correctly, that model with the large blinkers had the "big block" 1.5 litre engine, perfect for towing the 14 ft caravan.
      Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

        I got my driver's license in this one, my father's 1962 deluxe microbus, unusual in that it was a walkthrough, we were told when he bought
        it that was one of three walkthroughs imported into Australia. I used to drive it almost every day. My father ended up fitting a 356 1600
        Super into it. Don't ask where it is now, I don't know.
