I've been suffering with the same problem, it started after a month or so after buying the car from new.
Dealer said it was the intank fuel pump, which was replaced yesterday, it made no difference, the whine is still there when the engine is running.

Re: Car-net App connect
I have both in my new Scirocco. For car-net, one needs to set up one's phone as a wifi mobile hotspot (ie tethering) for this to operate depending on your phone contract. For app-connect, yes, there is a £100 cost involved but it allows your phone & car to run Android Auto & Apple Carplay. ...

Re: Illumination of dashboard.
Thanks Roy.
This must be a new "feature" then as my 62 plate Roc GT illuminated the dash when 'sidelights' were turned on.

Illumination of dashboard.
Hi guys!
Picked up a new facelift R-Line last week and noticed the following.
When I have the sidelights on, the dash cluster is not illuminated.
When the main lights are on, the dash cluster is illuminated.
My dealer says this is normal and not a fault. Can any of you guys assist?

Goodbye Viper Green & Hello Black Editions.
Just been on the VW configurator, new month, new Sciroccos, well the Black Edition line has been introduced, purely cosmetic though. I also noticed that Viper Green as a colour choice has been withdrawn from all models of Scirocco. Will that colour become a collector's edition? Only time will tell!

Re: Colour Choice - Ultra Violet?
UV was one of my colour choices for my new build R-Line which I ordered this month.
It was a choice between UV and Indium Grey.
Having seen both in the flesh at my local dealer, I went with Indium Grey.
UV is unique, not many out on the roads, it's a good colour choice.

Re: New Roc - Undecided on colour
No mods planned, going to keep it as is.
The colour is exactly the same of an RX8 I had for 6 years before a hail storm wrote it off!

New Roc - Undecided on colour
Hi guys! I'm currently on my second Roc and about to replace it with a third. I'm upgrading from a GT 140 manual diesel to an R-Line 184 manual diesel with a pana roof and a lot of extra electrical gubbins, Xenons, Park Assist, etc. To this date I'm still undecided on the colour as my 1st and 2nd Ro...

Re: 2.0 l Bluemotion R-line
I went for the 2.0 TDI Bluemotion GT purely for the fuel economy and still wanting a coupe. I'm averaging 54mpg on a daily commute.
This was coming over from an RX8 which I had for nearly 7 years which averaged 18mpg on a daily commute.
