Definitely not anything to do with a supercharger if you've got a 2.0 - it doesn't have one!

Re: Going to buy new tyres... Suggestions?

Got the vreds on my summer wheels. Can't complain about them. At least as good as the stock bridgestones in the dry and considerably better in the wet.

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

My arguement to VW was that that shouldn't happen. They said the nuts were too tight (they were torqued to vw spec). Not impressed with vw supplying such a crap attempt at a wrench.

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?

Had my exhaust put back on last saturday and refitted my itg today. Much better! Also replaced my wheel brace as this had happened to the original:- http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y35/Deacon666/20130216_175209.jpg And I replaced the rubber engine cover grommet VW had broken during the last service!

Went to the deserted local pub car park and had a play in the about 6" of untouched snow. I can confirm winter tyres are amazing and handbrake turns are a lot of fun!
