Scirocco Central

A couple of weeks ago I went out to work and my motor wouldn't start, I was turning the key and nothing was happening. I called the AA out who had it in bits on the road for half an hour and then had to tow me into my local dealers. No compression in the engine and not fixable either, a new engine a...

I've googled Votex, but can't find much other than T4 stuff. Do you have any links? I was just about to order a set of Thule ones, now they have released a fitting kit, but the speed & load ratings are similar to the ones you mentioned above. After speaking with Thule today it sounds like the 1...

Not been on here for a while but I'm glad I've just spotted those pics PC. :eyepop: I've been hauling my 15ft canoe up to Scotland every month for the last year on my bars, they still look solid and show no signs of bending but the consequences of me losing my boat on the M6 could be nasty. Good to ...

Mine's exactly the same, I've set mine to "Brightest" but it's not made any difference.

It's not too bad in the morning but come midday it might as well be turned off as I can't see a thing.

Had mine analysed and road tested this morning, surprise surprise no fault was found.

Just have to live with it I suppose.

Yep still there on my MY2010 BW2 210PS

I've got mine booked in for a looksee on Friday morning, I think they're running some engine diagnostics for an hour or so. I'm probably wasting my time but it's not a good sound, especially when most of my driving is between 2-3k rpm anyway. If it's the wastegate like some people are suggesting, do...

Thanks guys

I'll have a play later and see how I get on.

Does anyone else struggle to see the display on the 510 in daylight ? I've got my brithness level set to the max but I can still hardly see it during the daytime, at night it's fine. If that big yellow thing comes out in the sky then it makes it impossible to see anything. As usual, am I missing out...

Is there any way to fix the stutter between tracks when playing an iPod through the 510 ?

Hey, I'm getting my Sciroccco in the next few weeks, would you say that the rack from micks garage is good quality? I was worried it might scratch the paintwork. It looks good on the car, low profile and not too bulky. Thanks for your help. Keith I bought Candy Monsters bars off him and used it for...

I had the Parrot ck3100 fitted a couple of days ago, seems to do the job nicely so far.

I took delivery of my build week 2 last week, just to confirm it does have the 6CD head unit.

I have been checking up on the Thule website and the place i bought mine from for my current car, but am starting to think that it is going to be a while until Thule bring something out. I will be getting my car 1 March, so am keen to get my roof bars for my MTB as soon as possible, but will hold o...

I have this between 2,000 and 3,000 rpm, plenty of threads about it on here. Personally I like the sound but many people are unhappy with it.

Nothing to worry about though pal

That's good to hear, what is it making the noise ? Is it turbo related ?

Can anyone shed any light on the iPod playback, not too keen on the jumps between tracks. Is there a fix at all ?

I got my new Roc on Wednesday and I've got a metallic raspy noise coming from the front end when I put my foot down a touch.

Is it supposed to be doing it ? It sounds like a dodgy turbo or something to me.

I've been driving the mkV Gti for the last three years and never heard anything similar.

Just to show folks some pics of the bars in place. I got these particular ones from a member here but I think they're the same as the those at Micks Garage. I only got my Roc on Wednesday so a nice little 700 mile trip to Scotland for some canoeing and wild camping was in order. To fit the bars it's...

Thanks guys I got on the blower to the dealers yesterday and the missing ipod cable came through in the post this morning. Apparently the guy who delivered my car was new and he didn't pick up the cables from the parts dept. Anyway I connected up my 1st gen iTouch and it works like a good un. Can th...

Maybe switch between the mirror modes and back again in the convenience menu. Only got my Roc yesterday so still learning, might be worth a try though.
