Re: Changing speedometer

The tacho goes with the car. It has a memory that keeps the miles etc. It's aslo coded and if you change it you must go to a dealer to code it for you. Not an easy vag-com thing. I don't think there would be a compatibility issue between the new and old tacho. It's just that coding thing!

It's a program with workshop manuals, current flow diagrams etc. for all VWs. I haven't updated mine since June, but till then no Englis...

Re: Scirocco pulls left

However I'm guess that because theses cars are built in Europe they are set up to drive on the other side of the road hence the slight compensation in the steering as the camber of the road would be on the other side. Anyone else think this? Perhaps someone with a Europe mainland car could confirm ...

This was your kit :lol: The cable is routed along the bumper and up into the boot area with the cabling for the number plate lights. The gromit is big enough for all the cables and brings them out in the right area to run along the drivers side trim. PM me about the bluetooth as the new kit is will...

Re: Safety cameras

If you have a RNS510 then it has HDD. If you have it then when you put in the maps' DVD it will ask to copy the maps or not. If you select yes then it will copy them to the HDD and you'll not need the DVD anymore.
