Re: Which diesel? 140 or 170?

I tested the 140 and didn't get it .. waited for 170, thats how much I did not like the 140. With a remap I think the 140 would have made me smile however as I was getting a company car it was something I didn't want to mess with.

Re: Wind noise through door rubber welts

I have this on my passenger side but thats probably becasue the window was replaced by autowindscreen and probably not fitted properly. Driver side is fine... I can only tell the passenger side when on the motorway with the music off or listening to 693 MW

Re: Could NOT open / deactivate my Roc!!!

I had this happen to me just before xmas and like you thought what the hell .. tried the other fob but then spotted the gap to stick the key in and pop the plastic bit. I knew there had to be a key slot somewhere ... it was just a case of working how to get it of without damaging it. Touch wood it h...

Re: Had yours been broken into?

Got mine back yesterday with extra legroom! Glovebox on order from VW .. apparently will take 2/3 weeks to come according to bodyshop. At least I have the car ... no chance of anyone breaking into the glovebox now :-)

Re: tradeing my scirocco for a3

Well I am somewhat like the others, I wouldn't go for tha A3 until it was replaced with a new model. That said, if I had to choose one (and nearly did due to company car options) it would be similar to the one you have chosen... 170 tdi quattro with S-line. Plus I get bored quickly, my roc is stayin...

Re: tradeing my scirocco for a3

Re: Had yours been broken into?

Thanks for the message Gilez, I am already on the case. Found out today company car insurance doesn't cover personal items .. so its a choice of claim it on the house insurance (need to look at the excess) or foot the bill for a new one. Hope you enjoy yours when you get it. If you are still in the ...

Re: Had yours been broken into?

No there were no marks, the mount wasn't working so was in the glove box, they nicked that as well... so they got away with a 3 year old tomtom one that only works if its being charged and with a mount that just falls over... i did have the charger plugged into the 12v port though which they probabl...

Re: Had yours been broken into?

Thanks for the comments. Ipod cable was found by autowindscreen guys when cleaning the car and usb cable was still in place with usb key .. so looks like they didn't know to look there. Oh and it was in Birmingham .. but reckon they were just after the sat nav (which yes I know I shouldn't have left...

Had yours been broken into?

:-(, came back to my car yesterday to find they had smashed both passenger side windows. Ripped out the glove box (it was locked with sat nav in it) and nicked the ipod cable. Reported it but nothing Police can do. When I called the glass people they asked if I had been in a couple of weeks ago. The...
