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,

  • Whats goes vrrrmmmmm THUMP!

    A VR6 with sheered front and rear engine mounts...

    Seems a lowered vehicle just puts more stress on all the parts and while the rear mount had been replaced, the front had not so when it gave way entirely it's taken the rear mount with it again

    Turns out that having the engine secured to the chasis is a good thing and thanks to Matt (Golf Loon) being at his workshop late tonight I just drove into the driveway with a working VR6

    Thanks to Matt for taking the time outside normal hours and keeping a fellow dubber on the road

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                        It's actually reeeeeally lame and soppy what we're all doing here but I have to agree. It's not so much a workshop, rather, a mate's place!
