Scirocco Central

Ah ok, Thanks for the help

I picked up my 09 scirocco yesterday at Norwich and drove 210 miles home, it was awesome, great car. It has dab radio but no Bluetooth, I've read on here that you can add the module to the wiring that's already in place under the drivers seat, is this correct? If so how much will the module cost me?...

Thanks Gaz r, appreciate it

Ah ok, so what noise do I need to listen out for then??

I'm going to pick a 2.0 tsi Rocco in viper green up next week sometime, don't really know much about engines.So I need to listen for a rattle on start up from cold? Does anyone have a video of the rattle I need to listen for please? The car has done 71k with no issues as far as I'm aware, could ther...

Might be an idea to know the sound of the rattle on start up, gonna check this thoroughly before I drive the car away. The car comes with a 128 point check from the AA, I've mentioned it on the phone to the dealership stating this needs to be checked. But I'm not convinced they will. So can anyone l...

Hallelujah eventually found a Rocco I wanted, couldn't stretch to the new steering wheel set up. So I went for a viper green 2.0tsi with panaramic roof, black leather. 70k. All in I'm pretty pleased, car is located in Norwich so I've got a good old road trip to collect it. 180 mile each way. I'll po...

Spoke to the salesman this morning, The engine was changed due to a fuel
Pump disintegrating into the engine. Think I'm gonna walk. The search continues....

Looking at a 09 2.0tsi which they say has had a new engine in 2014, mileage is 61k, so is this the mileage from the original and new engine together so is correct? I take it the engine had been replaced due to the tensioner issue that these have? So it should have the new tensioner on and should be ...

Thanks for all the help, gonna stay well clear of that one

Currently looking at a Rocco online, looks lovely,74k, 59 plate, 2.0tsi gt. just been chatting with the dealership and he says the 1sr service was at 35k, now that seems a long time to wait to get a service done, especially with it being its first service, I'm thinking I should walk away and keep lo...

Ok so the DSG box is damn good then, I need to put a deposit down on one car so it can be brought to my local dealer, Can't bring both down unfortunately so it's decision time. Seems to be the 60 plate 2.0tsi DSG 210bhp car then. Has the benefit of the new steering wheel and heater set up. Where the...

Just intend to use the car for commuting etc. Def no track or racing.
So a 60 plate car will have the DSG 6 or 7?

Looking to buy my first Rocco in the coming days, I've seen a red 09 plate 2.0tsi manual for £7900 with 61k, cloth interior, whilst checking yesterday I found a grey 60 plate 2.0tsi DSG with 2 tone leather and also 61k, also has black wheels which look damn cool to. Never really had a automatic car ...

Ok thanks,
Is it only on the petrol models?

Did most pre 2012 petrol models suffer with the rattle that trashes the engine? Just starting to worry now about buying a petrol Rocco as I don't want to get a bill for thousands down the line Is the revision retro fittable to a pre 2012/23 engine? If so then what does it cost? Still waiting to find...

The car I'm looking at online at Evans halshaw says it's had a new engine under warranty, it's the 2.0tsi gt, car is 2009 Were there any common faults around 2009 that resulted in this? Could it be due to the mysterious rattle as mentioned in this thread? Car is not close to me so can't go and see i...

The blue 58 plate sold, I was umming and arring and lost out. Found an 09 in my price range but still got the older dash, it's red, what are people's thoughts on a red Rocco?
Look good still?
My current car needs 4 new tyres and the mot runs out Jan 17, Hence the rush to trade it in

Would a 58 plate have dab radio as standard or were they introduced later on?
Also how easy is it to retrofit the Bluetooth found in later models in a 58 plate?
And what's it gonna cost me to buy the unit?

It's only for commuting and picking the kids up from school and ferrying them about when needed. We have a new s-max as our main car(3 kids!) so won't need the Rocco for anything practical, I'm 5ft 7 so most cars are big enough for me :nod: Think I'm gonna stick with a petrol as I really enjoyed the...
