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,

    no recommendations for the northside other than northstar?

    i wouldn't take a wheel barrow there.... the last time will be the last time.

    mine is about to walk out of warranty and would be nice if there was someone worth taking it to that told the truth...

        I seriously considered going to German Autos. Even went so far as stopping by to have a chat.

        Old skool mechanic with an interest in old VWs ....... probably does a great job and will service and fix all VWs, especially old ones very effectively.

        However, not particularly interested in modern VWs and not at all in their tuning possibilities. Downright disdainful of ECU tuning a modern VW ...... and had no discernible knowledge of what is currently being done in that respect to modern TSI engines.

        I therefore decided against taking my tuned VWs there.

        So still need a quality, inexpensive (not the same as cheap!), enthusiast VW mechanic on the Northside .....

          Hmmm, I'm in desperate need of a mechanic as I'm back in Brisbane next week after a long hiatus.

          Do you think he'd be ok with a Mk4? I was hoping they could install a DP for me too...

            German Autos will be fine with your MK4, will have all the parts in stock too.
            MK4 GTI - Sold
            MK5 Jetta Turbo - Sold
            MK5 Jetta 2.Slow - Until it dies.

                Have to say that German Auto did some really great work on my daughters Mk4 today.
