It's amazing how the manual says how dangerous it is to overfill but then makes it not so obvious where the max line is ? Another amazing fact is how certain people on forums, esp...

Confusing Oil Check ?

Hi, With the concern of overfilling by a few mm all too prevaillant and the owner's manual showing a different dipstick to the one on my new Scirocco gt, please excuse me for the following question ! Is the MAX mark at the top of the ridge, indicated in the photo, or should there be a clearly marked...

Can i still order the current model with the updated spec from 2012: The leather seats, rns315 with nav, bluetooth and DAB, rear parking sensors and electric lumbar in front ?

Re: SatNav retrofit costs

Hi,
I know i'm stating the obvious but have you considered the Garmin unit on sale at Halfords for £ 80. With 3D maps, photo quality, bluetooth and free updates. I know you probably want the luxury of a built-in system but could have better quality sat nav and save over £ 2700 !

Re: Wheel noise on full lock
