Scirocco Central

Just had my first year service on the R, done 9k and the front tyres have worn slightly more on the inside edges. Left Front: Outer 6.0 Middle 5.5 Inner 5.0 Right Front: same as above Does anyone know whether this is normal for the R steering geometry? Just that I'm used to the Outer edges wearing m...

I have setup a Car-Net account on my PC and registered it on my Discover Media unit but I can't get the Car-Net to work. I have an iPhone 6 and have connected the Discover Media unit to it via WLAN and phones Hotspot but everytime I select Car-Net it says "No Data Connection Available". Ha...

Yes you can just buy the cap although the OEM part comes primered so you need to get it painted. You can buy pre-painted pattern parts off eBay although the quality is not as good as OEM. A quick search brings these up http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/262757317736?lpid=122&chn=ps&adgroupid=13...

Can you replace just the coloured rear capping on the door mirrors.

Another driver hit my door mirror driving too close and now it has a large scuff on it. Mine are gloss black.

If you can buy the capping does anyone know the price of the part.

Thanks

What would be best product to use to clean up a sticky sweet residue from the inside of the glovebox?

I don't want to go in too aggressive and damage the fabric lining.

Thanks

My Scirocco R was stolen from my drive last night. Thieves broke into house and took the keys.

If anybody see's it please contact the police.

It's in Indium Grey and reg is OO65MJP

Note: Picture of my car is at a B&B we stayed at. Not my driveway.

Does anyone know whether the new Dash and Infotainment system will be rolled out to the rest of the Scirocco range?

Mine does not do that .i.e. it doesnt turn on with ignition fire-up! The only time it does is if I left it on before I turn off the car on previous start-up I leave mine on Auto all the time so it's always running when the engine is on, but it's not starting up on next ignition and I thought it did...

Checked mine this morning, the auto and a/c lights come on with ignition and then fan starts after car has been running for a few seconds. I'm sure it comes on sooner in the summer when set to cold and then after a few seconds in winter. Could be wrong though it's been a while since had it on cold ...

My car went in for is 2nd service today and yesterday I noticed what I thought was a fault. When I turned the ignition on the climate control fan didn't turn on. I am convinced that it has for the previous 2 years of ownership. When I start the engine after a few seconds the fan turns on as it shoul...

Stopped working again tonight.

Looks like its a trip to the dealer for me.

I hope its covered by the 3 year warranty.

Drove the car tonight and its working ok now.

After nearly 2 years of use without a hitch, suddenly my RNS315 has stopped playing music from a SD Card. The screen shows 00:00 at bottom left and something like --/-- botton right. It makes no difference to the screen whether the SD card is inserted or not. Any ideas? Or is it a trip to the dealer...

Do VW recommend a Distance/Time for doing this?

I notice a huge difference in mine between sport and comfort! I will drive in normal most of the time and find it pretty good at adapting! Sport for the back country roads and when I want to really give it the beans! Would drive in sport all the time but some of the unavoidable pot holes make me wa...

I would search VW's website.

If I was spending £15 - £18k I would buy from a VW dealer, not a private sale

Do you know of any tyre place that has a Hunter GSP9700 in Sussex or South East England or know the best way to find out short of ringing round numerous tyre places? I dont mate I'm afraid - I'm from the Midlands .Although I can pretty much guarantee that any Jaguar / Landrover dealership you find ...

Cuprabob is right - it definitely sounds like a wheel issue to me too. You say that the steering wheel is shaking - do you mean that the wheel column is shaking vertically ? (body shake) or that the wheel itself vibrates left to right ( shimmy) ? A wheel & tyre assy with high RFV (Radial / Road...
