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,

    Mate the vinyl'd Polo is looking tough - i really like it. If i could offer a little bit of advice....

    1) get your windows tinted ASAP (although i think you mentioned that its coming). It makes such a difference.
    2) remove the VW service and roadside assistance stickers off your windscreen and stick them to the inside of your service folder thingy
    3) remove NSW rego label from windscreen (its no longer needed as of 1st Jan 2013)

      Yep tints are on the agenda, just gotta stop fart arse'ing around and call the guy to book it in.
      Good call on the stickers and rego sticker. Didn't even think of that

        does this have the 1.4 twincharged motor in it?

        I have thought about this but not sure how well the spring will stay in if driving it hard? Might look into it on the weekend. Would ideally like custom springs so I can still adjust the height
