Re: Scirocco sold - just a couple of questions
Thought as much. Shouldn't have asked. I was put in an uncomfortable position. Even at my age, you think you have covered all bases. I know trade-in values are generally chap but as I say, I tested the water on auto trader at £8850 with no luck. I could have maybe got luckier around the £8250 mark b...

Scirocco sold - just a couple of questions
Hi 'All' I parted company it my Scirocco yesterday after 17 months of ownership. It was a 1.4 (122) model. It was a '60' plate with 48500 miles on the clock. I traded it in for a car I had wanted for a long time and decided to take the plunge.....however, I cannot feel disappointed by a few things a...

Wing mirror 'ripped off' - advice
This morning I had a knock on my door. It was a bloke who was looking for the owner of a vw scirocco. That would be 'me'. His daughter hadn't closed a door right on his car resulting in the door swinging open and whacking my passenger side wing mirror off. Fair play to him for his honesty [emoji72] ...

Re: Dectane DRL issue - help appreciated
Got a reply from Dectane. Incredibly they have 'no solution'. The small part (wedge holder and resistors on the pcb) is not available as a spare. So in other words, for a common failure, the only solution is to buy a new set of lights? Wow. Has nobody encountered this issue and found a solution? Sen...

Dectane DRL issue - help appreciated
I bought this car with these already fitted. A few days ago the driver's side white led strip (drl) stopped working along with a warning in the dash. Today I had a go at fixing it and found the holder and the red connector badly corroded. As I never fitted them, I am unsure what parts came with them...

Re: Water leak in boot - 2010 1.4tsi
No tow bar mate. Possibly the lights. Never been disturbed by me but possibly the previous owner. I plan on treating it over the weekend

Re: coolant leak help- 2010 1.4 (122)
Thanks. I have just nipped up the bolt and got a bit 9f a turn on it. Took it for a spin and no leaks for now but I'll order the washers and keep an eye on it

coolant leak help- 2010 1.4 (122)
Today after a short motorway trip (bit of hard acceleration but nothing major) I noticed when sitting at some traffic lights,steam coming from under the bonnet :eyepop: and a smell of coolant. I lifted the bonnet and could see a small drip dropping down onto a hot part of the engine from the point (...

Arnold Clark (VW) also offer a service plan for older cars. It has been re branded but unsure how good/bad the service would be

Re: New LED rear lights. Thoughts?
I personally don't think they are bad, but I'm just not a fan. I like some aftermarket options but hear bad reports about dectane hence I've not bothered. Having said that, I'm not a big fan of the factory fitted rears either lol

Re: 2010 1.4 tsi water/condensation in driver's headlight
Thanks for the advice. Going to keep an eye on it. Not the best weather for it to dry off either on the West of Scotland
