Scirocco Central

does anyone have an iphone 3gs? I can't get the thing to charge using the MDI cable. Plugging in I get the same "error" about it wanting to turn on airplane mode, and plays music fine through the stereo, just the damn phone won't charge. I recently switched from a 3g, and it worked perfect...

Personally before you decide if you want to change or not I would take a very long test drive in the diesel. They are not for everyone... Personally I drive around 750/800 miles a week and I still choose to do so in a petrol engined car. If I am going to spend over 3 hours a day commuting for work ...

as i bought it with a fair discount, and the higher base price and VAT increase, I was hoping to get alot or even most of my money back...?

I was happy to do mainly commuting and city miles in my 2.0 petrol when I picked up my 'Roc in September, but I've had a big change of circumstances. Will be doing many 1,000's of motorway miles next summer because of a job change. Conservatively, I expect I'll be doing 450 miles a week down the mot...

I went from a 5 door 02 polo to my 59 reg Roc. Not regretted it for a minute. I did spec parking sensors and it's really solved the poor rear visibility issue. Practicality - go for a golf if you do need to log lots of stuff around or more than 4 passengers. However the Roc has really good boot spac...

you shouldn't be holding a cameraphone when you're going at 77mph!

You should be able to access it through your Tomtom. In Tomtom Home app. go to Add Traffic, Voices and Cams. and then go to Images and Icons. Car symbols are listed in there. I haven't hooked up to it for a while but there were at least a couple of Roc images you can use last time I looked. Thanks,...

Rocket, any chance you can share the file?

You rely on your computer far too much sliced bread, google smoogle, what pish! Remember in the old days we used to get this big yellow thing at the the door, Yellow pages ring any bells. Always find its much better to find the like of small local companies. I have to agree tho, dont go near halfra...

Seriously, do not bother with chips away. Do it properly.

I don't know any local body shops.... I tried googling it but that was fairly unsuccessful. I'm in SW london if anyone does know any.

I got some quote's.

Local Chipsaway guy: £92
Halfords: £155
VW bodyshop: £320 (full respray)

I've decided to give chipsaway a go. Will report back with before/after pics once it's done.

Too bad you guys are so far from me Ryan, your prices sounded pretty competitive.

OK i see thanks.

Crewe's a bit far for me, but at least I have an idea of how much it would be.

Who's "our"?

thanks.

some pics of the damage.

Some a**hole caught the left corner of my rear bumper as it was parked outside my house last night! It's left a small 1cm scratch that has gone thru the paint and you can see the black plastic bumper underneath. The whole area is scuffed and will probably need respraying (maybe a 7cm by 7cm area) an...

Hi, I have just collected a used March 2009 Scirocco TSi and am having difficulty getting my ipod Classic 160GB to work via the mutli-media cable in the arm rest. The car came with a single black cable which plugs at one end into the car's multi media socket in the armrest, and on the other end, ha...

I think the problem is that there is so much reduncancy and duplicating of info on both sites. I've seen the same username ask a question in both forums, just to be sure they get a reply. Kinda silly if you ask me. As the mk3 scirocco market is still smallish in the UK, wouldn't it be easier if we w...
