Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

Cheers.

These were the spacers I bought: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/123607225548" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

In terms of ride comfort, no real change to be fair. It does feel a lot more planted now, especially on corners

What did you do to your Scirocco today?

Morning all. Haven't posted for a while but thought I'd put out a bit of an update. When I first bought it, I sprayed the callipers red as well as a couple of areas on the front grille. Ive the last few weeks, I have managed to do the following: - New 5-spoke alloys - 20mm spacers - Front dropped 30...

Re: MDI Bluetooth Issue

Looking at the specs it mentions about using the phones mic for calls. I would think you may have options during a call on the phone to output speaker volume to the bluetooth connection. But I think if you can; it will have to be done every time you get a call. Not ideal in a car as you don't want ...

MDI Bluetooth Issue

I have bought a MDI Bluetooth cable for connecting my iPhone XR to the stereo, so I can stream media using the Media/Aux setting. All works fine, however when I take calls, there is no option to listen through the bluetooth connection, so I need to use my phone speaker. Which is pretty annoying as i...

Engine light but full power

Morning all

Driving back home yesterday and looked down to see that my engine light on the dash is on, however there is no loss of power or anything like that.

Have any of you had this before? any ideas where to start looking before a costly trip to VW for a diagnostic check?

Thanks all

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

Thought I'd get the callipers done to match the red I did on the front last week.

Really happy with the result, what do you think?

I think the next step is some LED/Halo lights for the front......

Re: Stereo cables

Hey bud I am no expert and have only just got a Scirocco myself, however, the first pic looks like some form of mini-coax style connector. I have used these before on aircraft for connecting a GPS antenna to another bit of kit. Did the old head unit have inbuilt GPS? Not sure on the other, could be ...

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

So thought I'd give the front end a bit of a change. Took some pics and worked it through photoshop first to see if it would look ok. Must say, I'm very pleased with the result, and all for a £6 can of Plastkote off Amazon. Its the first time I've really done this type of thing with a car, and shit ...

New Stereo vs BT Module

Hey all So I have had a look through the forum as my Bluetooth doesn't work, and upon further inspection, there is nothing under the drivers seat.... therefore nowhere to fit a new BT module. As I also want SatNav installed, I have had a look at a few double din systems to replace. Still being a 'no...
