    At what point did your suspension become 'crashy'?

    I've now got 91k miles on my 2008 GTI, which is running its original suspension. Lately, I've noticed that lately the car crashes and bangs over bumps, in a very un-German way. Other than that, the suspension is still firm and doesn't seem like the shocks are blown. Most of my driving is on...

    Plaids to leathers!

    Anyone replaced their plaid seats from a 2008 GTI with leathers from a 2007? I'm about to do this swap and trying to learn as much as I can. I've searched and there is a bunch of rabbit to GTI seat swaps, not too much on the GTI swaps. I'm mainly concerned with plugs for seat occupancy...

    What was your last car?

    Wow, a lot of previous Honda and other Jap cars seem to be taking the plunge. I think the MkVI is responsible for getting a lot of non VW owners into the brand. Got 85k on my 2008 GTI and it runs like a champ. Within the year I'll be going either MkVI GTI or R. What wonderful cars the GTI's are :)

    oil change help?

    Ok guys, tried to change the oil today myself on the GTI for the first time. There seems to be a little black cap on the base of the filter which needs to be removed to get access to the nipple. I tried both screwing it off, and prying it off. How do I remove it? Anyone? Bueller? :biggrin:
