Scirocco Central

I upgraded the sound system in my R and because i wanted to keep the stock head unit i bought an Audison Bit Ten. This takes all 4x of your speaker level outputs and puts them through a processor to give you a bit more control/refinement of your speakers. This may also be a consideration or someone ...

the mk3 came out in 2009 and the R version 2010 iirc, i personally don't like the r-line model it has no real reason to be in the scirocco line up. A second hand R i would estimate you are looking around £15,000 - £25,000 depending on mileage, condition and options. If i was to buy again i would go ...

I logged mine for a year using a fuel app and it averaged out like this...


This was totally ignoring the on board trip as that usually over reads anyway..

I'm in a similar situation to the OP and have a dash cam also but i would like the 12v outlet in the center console to come on with the ignition and then go off with the ignition once the key is out.. does any one know if this is possible through VCDS? at the moment it just stays on all the time. Th...

yes the trim is common. front left 1K8867233A front right 1K8867234A Add either CE6 for titanium black or 5T5 for pearl grey to end of the code. The trim colour depends on interior not model anyway. Thanks for the info. My local VW Dealer are quoting me £63 for a pair which i don't think is too bad...

Hello, Does anyone know if the A Pillar Trims from a standard Scirocco/GT/GTS will fit the R Model?

Looking at pics they look the same... I'm not worried about them colour matching as i plan to re-cover them.

Any help would be great, cheers.

Sorry I've been a bit quiet... The DSG definitely has its plus points and I'm sure I would get along with it fine. Might go have to pay the dealer a visit and see what deal i can get.

Just for info Spec of the DSG R is... 11 Plate 34k 19" Wheels DVD Navigation + 30 GB Hard Drive Bluetooth Phone Prep Hill Hold Cruise Control Dynaudio Sound Pack Folding Mirrors - i think Cloth Seats Rising Blue Priced @ £21,490 Been offered £17,500 for mine P/X Its really tempting me but I'm j...

I have driven both and to be honest i like both but I'm swaying more towards the DSG just for the ease of driving. I only have 1 year left on my R before i own it so not sure if i should take the hit with the DSG with the new R coming out late 2014.

Hello, I'm currently driving a Manual R but the opportunity has arisen for me to possibly part ex my Manual and get a DSG, I'm just wondering if it will be worth the extra money.

Would love to know your opinions

On the subject of speed and the R, what is the top speed of the R without its limiter (Stock)

Hello, I'm also in the same boat as you, i have been looking at the kits on eBay but a little confused as to the part numbers. Some seem to end in B or E and not too sure of the difference. Let us know if you have any luck.
