On the flip side if we are lucky we can JUST get a DAB reception 0.005% of the time if we are in the open countryside with the sun out and the day has a W in it.....

Re: OEM Diverter Valve
Were abouts is the valve? looking at the picture looks like you would be able to see if you had the newer unit fitted without removing it!

Re: Door rattle.... Dealer trying to fob me off
Must say our drivers door closes with a nice noise......but the passanger door has a rattle when you shut it. I was thinking of getting the dealer to take a look....but im loosing faith in VW dealers..
Lucky at the minute the passanger door isnt rattling whilst driving

Re: A few questions and advice please..
I agree to a point regarding the Autoglym.....but there is no denying the car is VERY easy to clean and we look after our cars anyway so topping the paintwork up with a decent wax isnt a problem. But another good plus point is the interior protection....ie....get a stain but cannot remove it Autogly...

Re: A few questions and advice please..
We got our Autoglym for half that price in the end......and im guessing the dealer still made some money on that!!

Re: DAB question

Re: Fiscon or Parrot or another blue tooth kit
We have Fiscon in our Rocco and Parrot in another car...........without a doubt the Fiscon in a Rocco is the way to go!! After nearly a month of using the Fiscon I cannot think of anything bad to say about it.....the Fiscon unit is basically a Parrot with better VW intergration...best of both worlds...
