Re: No Cruise Control?

If you have it, it's a flick switch on top of the indicator stalk.

A simple aircon recharge/regas sorted this problem for me

Re: Group 1 / Age 1-4 Car seat

I've used both the Britax Safefix plus (massive isofix seat with a pole to add stability) and maxi cosi axiss in mine. The Maxi cosi isn't perfect due to the seatbelt not quite going round it right. The britax fits perfectly. I was quite surprised at how easy it was to install either seat.

Re: Looking at a Scirocco to buy

Looks like a very fair price for a main dealer. If I were you,I'd try and get at least a few hundred off it, given that you are a cash buyer.

Re: Scirocco 2.0 TSI GT DSG fuel economy

Had mine 6 months, seems to average 29-31 on daily urban commute, and 35ish on open roads/ motorway cruising.

Re: How many chain tensioner failures on here?

So I guess the best approach might be to remain vigilant for the start-up rattle and act fast if it happens?

Re: How many chain tensioner failures on here?

So, is it mileage related?
I have a 2010 2.0 tsi DSG which has only done 17,000 miles.
There's no rattle (or anything wrong with it for that matter), but you guys have got me a bit worried....

Re: Car seat

Jimmy, It's not an ideal car with babies, but it's not awful- our maxi cosi base fits in fine (not the isofix one, mind you, but identical in shape I believe so shouldn't cause any problems) for our baby, and a britax isofix seat fits very nicely in the other seat for our toddler.
