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,

  • New diesel - may not be to everyones taste.



    New daily driver for the little lady.

    Done today: Stubby antenna, number plates surrounds, sticker/decal/cross bar removal

    To come: Eibach Pro Kit, SuperChips, Spacers, Intake, Leather protection and a set of wheels if someone can find anything that is not ugly in 4x108 PCD 18".

    It is interesting to compare to the 2.0 TDI, both 103KW 2.0 - Golf is more nimble, but the Pug is much more comfortable place to sit.

      The car is smoother than the mkv, but is definately not as hasty when you put the foot down.

      But I am comparing it to a 103KW with no DPF (308 has one), Pod Filter and rear muffler removal - so it is when thinking back to before those mods, still slightly behind.

      As for the interior space, it is massive compared to the Golf.

      I love it.

          Mate, real nice car!

          I have a real soft spot for that model Peugeots (specially the 206 GTI 180) I know what you meant straight away in reference to how comfortable they are. They are massive inside, and don't seem to have the reliability issues of old.

          Good luck with the mods too

            Nice car! I love a bit of quirky French styling. Looks great in red.
