Re: That dreaded intermittent fault.
Thanks cuprabob. That makes a lot of sense. Most mornings it is fine, which if it was a cold start issue you may expect. Generally it mainly happens after i have finished work around 5pm and the temps are up to their 20+. Once again you have come up trumps.

That dreaded intermittent fault.
Hi guys, quick question to see if anyone else has e prettier need the same fault. For the last couple off weeks when starting the car from cold the revs go up to 1250 and the engine runs a little off. Not a proper miss fire but just a tad lumpy. Exhaust sounds louder than normal but it only lasts ar...
Re: New tyres
Tyres are a midfield. Since buying my roc about a month ago the road noise it's really noticeable. All wheels have Bridgestones. So looking at replacing the two most worn ones. So I would like to know how quiet these falkens are. £200 It's an expensive punt otherwise.

Re: Boot interior
thanks guys. It makes sense for them not to be there if it is not a legal requirement but it seems odd that the hikers are.

Re: Battery Help
My battery went down all of a sudden a week after buying the car. There was no indication before it happened. Had the battery tested at my local battery supplier who insisted it was indeed the battery. Most likely out was the original. Head it changed and everything was okay. But beware, in my case ...

Re: Grit stuck in window frame
Not heard off third problem before but have you considered using an airline in order to dislodge it rather than trying to such it past the seals with the window fully down.

Boot interior
Hi guys. Just a bit curious. Apart from the usual spare and tools, to the left hand side there is a strap that it's now empty. Also on the opposite side to the number plate again there seems to be something missing.
Could anyone tell me what was once in those locations. Thanks

Engine revs.
Hi guys a bit of knowledge would be appreciated. Just bought myself a 1.4 160 Scriocco. Not having owned one before I am curious but the revs seem to be limited too 4000 both in neutral and under acceleration. There is a slight delay when you put your foot down but the motor does seem quick enough. ...

Coincidence or malicious you tube post.
Having just purchased a scirocco I became confused by the fact the headlights remained on even in the off position. So I YouTubed it. Video shows how to turn them off using the turn indicator and flash combination. Filled the instructions to hear a ping. No difference. Car wouldn't turn over and had...

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?
Held on to the unlock button to see the Windows go halfway down and stop. Flattened the battery and had to bump it. Only had it a week.
