Re: Interesting "feature" on diesel start up.

Is it not just on the blue motion version? Mine does it and it is a blue motion.

Unfortunately no. I am not very mechanically minded either. I will have a look in daylight tomorrow though and see if I can see it

Re: Window seals

Just found out my 12 month old car needs a replacement door controller as the window is not closing the gap in to to the seal enough - the effect being a constant wind rustle next to the right ear.... Glad you figured out the problem! Have you tried the window reset in the link in RW1's post above?

Re: tyres on a lease plan? do you need to buy OEM?

Mine is through Vw finance. If you have a maintainance lease just drive into a national tyres and they will put a new set of boots on if the tread is below 2mm. They will put the same tyres on or an equivalent premium brand :)

Re: What's the one option...

I would have gone for GT spec and xenons if it was my own car and not a company car. And definately reversing sensors!

Re: White soon to be cost option?

on the two year lease for my Scirocco company car it was actually cheaper to have a metallic option believe it or not. The reason being despite the £500 cost option the car is easier for the leasing company to sell and has a higher residual value. Shame because I wanted white!

eBay! There appear to be two main types: - Sills with lightly engraved etchings (£20 upwards) - Sills with deep, more '3D' engravings (sometimes £80) This set appear to be deeply engraved and cost £44 including delivery http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250846977142?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p39...

Re: Relatively cheap Scirocco accessories for company car?

Me too! Mine is due start of October. I have ordered new headlights (Philips blue vision), led side lights, and I am going to give it a good wash, polish and then go over with Autoglym HD wax to protect. I can't wait either. It's taking far too long!

Re: Cool display

To turn the running lights off without xenons if you hold the indicator stalk towards you and down when you switch the ignition on until you hear a bong, do they not go off? My Roc is on order so cannot try it yet but thats what they do in my golf...
