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 you're going to lie in your car sales advert, be smart about it people...

    I've been looking around for a cheap golf mk5 gti as a daily while my motor is getting rebuilt. I came across this advert on gumtree which made me laugh so I thought I'd share...

    Note the Brand New DSG Transmission and the 120,000k's...



    if you are going to claim something in your sales advert its probably best not to put a receipt photo up that says your car has done 200,000k's and has a 2nd hand transmission...

            Is there such a thing as 19" GTI rims? They'd be reps wouldn't they?

            $8.5k for a 15yo car is a bit nuts.

            This Octavia Vrs manual for $5900 might fill the bill.

            I can fit a set of 225s across the back with room for tools, jacks and fuel cans and still have room for 5 pax.
