I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Have a safe and wonderful time with your family and friends! Cheers!!! Don :happyanim: :drinking: :party0038:

My vehicle is 13 months old but it already have had new front springs and struts, a new fuel pump and the latest, a new DSG gearbox - all replaced under warranty. In addition, 2 guys have driven into me albeit light damage only. It must be the worst jinxed MkV. I'm seriously thinking of...

Why is it not fully open rather than a squared out area? Would look neater with the rest of the open grill.

I put my car in reverse in the garage but noticed boot was not closed tight. Stepped out to close boot and the car started to roll back. Found myself quickly pinned in the diminishing space between my car, my car door and my missus' other golf - we don't park parallel in the garage...

Removing existing fob badge - to avoid damage to the plastic, pry at 9 o'clock. Zero glue at underlying steel/screw head causes the badge to pop up easily. Covering old ground... thanks to Ian. I used the dark chrome. Original v OSIR

My fuel pump has been humming loudly and intermittently over the last few weeks. It has been frustrating cos' I have to wait for the high-pitched humming before I could bring the car in for the technicians to listen to same. CCC replaced my main pump last Thursday but the humming came back on...

Has any of the32 owners considered the flapper mod? It looks too simple. Wonder how noisy it would be in the32 on the freeway.

Not as balanced as these :smile:

I know what you mean, less like the Jetta and Passat too and more like a Golf. This is what I have done with Avery 900 signage paper (thanks to Alex our blackout king), blade and hairdryer. Dirt cheap and effective for now without replacing the whole front. Took me about an hour.

Spotted frangipanis on rearscreen, windows and even doors? I don't get it :iono:

MkV... same VAG photoshop artist?

I thought I should fix the loud backseat rattles which have been annoying me for the last 4 months. Having searched the forums, the plausible root cause was the seatbelt retainer but mine was more metal on metal and most frequent when I'm alone. Here's what I have done and it has completely...

Missus badly clipped her wheel on her Sportline. Searched around the boards and found this from JamieGTi. Custom Painting & Wheel Repairs 11 Romford Road Kings Park Any suggestion for a reliable repairer somewhere in Sydney? Thanks Donald

Sorry, BMW photo only. My photos are somewhere in my CDs. Great car, fit and quality, smooth as, RWD! etc. 335i or R32, I couldn't resist the V6, sound, gusto and $value of the32 when I was supposed to be test-driving a GTi for my wife. So, I'm now a MkV owner who misses the kidneys.

Please let me know what you think? Cheers BEFORE THIS AFTERNOON

Missus and I bought our vehicles from Denlo and have been asked to return for service at James Ruse Drive. Missus had her first service there and was reasonably satisfied. That said, they cleaned the car and blackened the tyres contrary to her instructions not to. Mine is due soon but I...

Driving in D6 in DSG and you want to gun it, how do you do it? 1. Floor it in D6? 2. Left flappy paddle 3 times quickly to D3? 3. Pull back gear shift to 'S' mode, automatically kicking it back to S3? :iono:
