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,

    I can get better economy but it can pull up a hill quicker than I can!
    I think I know what you mean by pulling uphill with cruise control on , the throttle pedal would have to be banged hard to the floor to get the full acceleration that the engine is capable of , the cruise control would electronically make the engine respond directly at the throttle body rather than manual input from the driver . I know in our T5.1 the response after cancelling cruise and then engaging is very quick .

      Yes.
      It has a bit less get up and go than the Transporter and uses more fuel but I make more money!
      There are some little issues but nothing major so far.
      Will have the 100k service next month in under a year............VW are not saying what happens then!

        Yeah......even on full throttle up a hill I can't get the grunt that CC can.
