Re: 2015 facelift Headlights on the previous R model??

Would also like to know exactly what is required to get facelift headlights working on a pre-facelift (xenon) Scirocco R? How difficult of an operation is it?

Re: Thinking of buying another

Early facelift models (MY15) have the old infotainment (RCD, RNS), but from MY16 they updated it to the newer Golf 7 style (Discovery etc.). Other than that there was not really any changes to the R during the last model years. This is in German, and for all Scirocco models, but it's a compehensive ...

Re: PS4S Tyres

Yes, got them last year for my R. Previously had the original Pirelli P Zero's on the R, and have run many other tyres on similar cars (Golf mk5, mk6 and Scirocco TDI). The PS4S is an amazing tyre, and the difference to the Pirellis is big. So much more grip and feel. The only negatives are slightly...

Does that seats are original one?
Those R front and back seats are the OEM one come with the R cars or what?!
Thanks
These Recaro seats were available as a factory option for the R when bought new. An expensive option, so very few cars have them. But OEM yes.

Re: My second Rising Blue R

After 4 years with the TD Pro Race 1.2's on my previous TDI, and now the Pro Race 1.3's on this R, I felt it was time for a change. In reality I was never really happy with the 1.3's on the R, so I finally made a change this week. Other than that, not much has happened, but I gave the car a full det...

Re: My second Rising Blue R

After the worst late winter/early spring in years (i.e. way too cold and too much snow), I could finally bring my car from the winter storage today. Happy day! No Friday 13th for me :) Over the winter I have done a few small mods again, although the major change was to update the wheels and tyres. N...

Re: Revo? Forge? VWR?

Is there a big difference in how loud the Revo is compared to the VWR/Racingline intake? Yes I have checked youtube videos, but it would be good to hear comments from those with experience of both, considering that where I live I don't really have a chance to see many cars with these installed to li...

Re: Did the R ever come with 17" wheels?

I read something online yesterday stating that you could order 17"s fitted with winter tyres, even for the R but I don't know if that was only in certain parts of mainland Europe where they are compulsory Yes, that was possible. They were called St. Moritz (6,5 x 17 ET 39) and that was the off...

They were available for/on the Golf 6 R as well, but with a different offset (ET).
