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,

  • Australian VW Parts Finder?

    Hey all,

    VW Parts, Accessories, and DriverGear - Volkswagen of America Online Store This link here will guide me to the US (NAR) parts catalogue. I think it’s great and quite accurate. Although I can’t seem to find the Australian catalogue for Volkswagen parts? This would be useful for me indefinitely. Does anyone know if there is one or do Australian dealers only have access to this? I’ve plugged in Australian part numbers into that website without any results. Thanks in advance!

    Im certainly not aware of anything similar for the Aussie market.

    I always have a hard time trying to find part numbers as most parts im after are not easily accessible on the car to check the part #, or are perhaps a part number fitted to European models but left off Aussie models. Having a part finder tool would be great.

    Some part numbers vary (only slightly) if they are for LHD or RHD market.

    What parts are you looking for? Most of the time if someone with a TSI or TDI Golf (for example) is looking for specific parts fitted to a GTI or R, a member with a GTI or R will help out with the part number for specific parts.

      Lucas,

      I do recall phoning a Volkswagen dealer and they wanted specific part numbers to search in their catalogue but I assume it was dealership use only. I’ve found the part number that I was looking for although it takes a little longer compared to a parts finder here :|

        Would something like this help? Stick to Europe as selection. Helped me find parts online in the past.

          I normally use the 7zap (EU market) or ECS tuning for part numbers.

          If you want to find the RHD equivalent, simply swap the 3rd digit.

          E.g. 1J1 = LHD
          1J2 = RHD

            I did see that website but I skipped over it as I didn’t think it was the official website for Aus. I’ll still utilise though.

              That’s good to know! I can see the subtle difference. I’ll keep this in mind.
