Cjintense Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Hey everyone. After a long time of being a vw enthusiast I've bought myself a scooby. Hopefully gonna check some shows through the year.
Jay762 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Wotcha and welcome - we have a few former / current VW enthusiasts on here. Would be great to see some photos of your motor :)
Cjintense Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Trying to figure out how to use the mobile version. Hopefully have some on here soon. Me and the missus have just bought one each 1

LUIGI-3 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 welcome aboard mate, and im also vw enthusiast but scooby is something i wanted since i was a child :)
Cjintense Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Know where you're coming from there lol. I've wanted one for years but couldn't afford it
Cjintense Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 I need to have a goods out on here for the boot leaking problems. Found the wheel well a tad full
Gambit Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Check the rear lights mate might need to put a bit of silicone on the bolts and holes but not to much that it's hard to take off again. 9 times out of 10 water gets in from there :)
Scooby Pete Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Welcome to the club. Check the spoiler, they bolt through the deck lid (beetle fan :) ) and can leak through there. Check you rubbers and how well they seal around the boot itself. A way to test to see where the leak is, is to climb inside the boot, shut it and the missus to spray the boot with a hose or jet wash, pretty sure she won't mind doing this :D. Use a torch inside the boot to look for leaks. Then hope the missus lets you back out . Also check the inner rear wing where the jack is for water, and the opposite side behind the boot liner, mine pooled in there and I had to get a pump from halfrauds to suck it out. Turned out the boot lid was warped after some one rear ended me, and the body shop missed it as it still fit when they reassembled. Won't be using them again.
Cjintense Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 That was the next plan. I work in a body shop so hopefully can sort anything out
Miggs Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 welcome aboard fella, i too am a VW enthusiast, got sick of the bitching in the scene and getting banned from the forums so came to the subie fold instead, much nicer here ;) as said get some pics of the motor up, if you are using your mobile then tapatalk is worth getting, designed to make forums quicker and easier from mobile devices
Cjintense Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 Cool I'll have a look for tapatalk. My profile pic is my motor. Just getting the missus to join up too 1
kathenson82 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Me being the missus who has the better scoobie ;) hehe 4
Gambit Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Haha the penny didn't even drop when you said your fella had one he had already signed up :) And I'm going to keep out of the domestic of who's car is better :D
Jay762 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Individual project / mod threads may throw up some frosty comments :P
