GT Suspension Settings

Are there any differences between the suspension on a GT and R-Line models.
I have heard that the R line is on stiffer Springs.

They were replaced as a warranty claim and I hadn't got 5 miles from the garage before the new ones started to fall apart. The plastic trim on the underside of the bars were only stuck on with double sided tape and blow o...

Re: Do new cars generally have crap mpg? (2.0Tdi 184)

Remove the spare wheel jack, tools, rear seats, don't go for the sunroof option as it increases weight, run it on worn out tyres as this reduces weight, duct tape over all body gaps only put 1 gallon of fuel in at a time and drive it in your under pants after a good crap because that's what VW did t...
