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,

    Finally gearbox gave up the ghost in my '97 2.5l. Torque converter was locking up and progressively became worse.

    Complete rebuild with separate oil cooler and warranty for $4,500. Hurt the wallet quite a bit but feel good about taking it on a long trip now. Very good service from transmission shop here in Canberra and will recomend if someone needs some work done.

    Apparenty there is a guy in Sydney who imports reman'd units from Hong Kong and have heard good things about them. Similar price all up I believe.

    I'll be servicing my transmission every 20,000k from here on...
