UK Passed in 1989 a week after I turned 17. Ford Escort MK3 1.1L X Reg Like the original 'X' US Passed in 2004 in a Chrysler Town & Country. lol Had my UK tests booked all up, when I was 16. I say tests, cos I had TWO prebooked, in case i failed one.. One in Surbiton Surrey, 5 days...

Tiguan SEL 2013.

I have three Panasonic THX Plasma's, (last three gens) and wouldn't be happy if i had to replace one now, as nothing out there that moves the image as good as my panny's.

lol my kid found this hilarious.. Said dad can i do this to your new car... Err no kid, not unless you want to end up eating a shorukyen !

It was only last week that i became a member. Bought my shiny new Gti, all excited i came on here asking about the Fender Audio and to join the community. He told me to 'do a search' then to piss off. lol. Funny enough i did say keep contributing like that, it'll get you far !! (which i...

So just bought a new MK7 and tried to register using my name from the 5 and 6 forums, but never rec'd an activation email, so can't use my name? Can't find anyway to contact the admins so that they can fix for me. So here i am on the 6 forum, hoping someone can give me a pointer. Thanks in...

I have a 2007 Gti, and the dark grey headlinder, by the top console has detached... Is it possible to fix, or does the entire top headlinder need to be replaced ? What sort of cost do you think I'm looking at. I live in a hot climate, so this was sort of expected I guess. Shame its happened...

My car drinks a quart of oil every 1000 miles. I put 1/2 a quart in every 500 miles. VW ran an oil test on it, and said it was still within spec and that was that. Thing is since its last oil change, its had 10 quarts.. TWICE that of what I'd put in for an oil change. Is it really...

What causes the ticking noise, that's present on idle, the one that is very pronounced on the Gti's? It seems as if its getting louder to me, from when i first had the car. I 'think' its coming from around the belt area. But i'm no mechanic. The car is a 2007 2.0T Gti, with 47,000...

Hi I took my car in for a DSG oil change on Friday. At the local vw dealership Got the car back and now none of the electrical items work on the right side of the car. That includes the front and back door, the right power mirror, neither of the right front or back power windows. When I...

Hey fella's VW want a staggering $400 for the 40k DSG oil change. Is this a DIY job? What exactly would be needed.. Failing a DIY, what about any independent transmission place be able to carry out this change, providing I made sure I supplied the correct oil. (which I'd get directly from VW)...

Got busted (again) for speeding. Doing 85 on a 70mph interstate. But the thing is, his radar wasn't even locked in, because I know for sure, cos i had cruise control on at 80mph AND I have a decent Escort radar detector, which wasn't bleeping as if the radar was fully locked on me. So he must...

Just curious to all those who are into the tuning ? How much money have you invested into tuning your car? Without the body mods, just on engine.. and have you done most of the work yourself or paid someone else to do it? Curious I am !

Has anyone had any DSG issues? Outside of the megatronic failures, that are being sorted by VW FOC in way of a recall? This is new tech and now that this new tech is starting to see a few miles, i'd be interested to hear what the long term reliability is like? I hear Audi was having issues...

Hi, My VW Gti is currently going through an oil consumption test. They filled it up and told me to come back in 1000 miles time. Does anyone know what is within their guidlines? I'd say I'm going through a quart every 1000miles easily. What will they do if they say yes, it's drinking more...

I don't need nav or touch screen. Only one that I can fit an external AMP too, and that the display matches the VW red and bluy neon dash lighting. In other words one that looks as stock as can be. Thanks in advance.

Hey there On my 2007 Gti, is there anyway to improve on the quality of sound, without going crazy? I mean on the standard unit, is there an aux output that i can hook up an amplifier to it? and perhaps switch out the standard speakers for something with a little more warmth and depth? Without...

Hey all, Is there a bike rack that'll fit a 2007 Gti? The missus has an Electra Cruiser bike that she's like to mount on it. Went to the bike shop and they said ooooh that's going to be hard to find to fit that car ??? :thumbsup:

Hi, 2007 GTI, need a new battery. Just went to my local advance auto and they wanted $156 + $12 disposal fee. Seems kinda steep to me. Any advice as to where to buy?

Soon it'll be time to have my DSG oil and filter changed.. What sort of cost am I looking at?
