I have checked and javasript is enabled, but there's just a big box with a little coloured thing in the left hand corner. Oh well....Kev wrote:Working fine for me. It's just a straight embedded youtube clip. You need to have javascript on in your browser.

Re: 220PS Scirocco? PHOTO NOW ADDED.
It's right at the bottom of the pillar which has the lock on it, just above the sill.easybreeze wrote:Interesting... but where is that sticker exactly? Is it below the catch on the pillar which holds the door locked? As I said, I just have a sticker about the first service... does anyone else have that?

220PS Scirocco? PHOTO NOW ADDED.
Don't know whether this has been covered before, but there is a sticker at the bottom of the drivers' door pillar of the 2.0 GT TSI saying that the power output is 220PS? I thought it was 200PS?

Service Package?
Did anyone manage to buy a service package when they bought their car? When you buy a new Polo or a Golf you can buy 3 years servicing for £225. I asked about this, but I was told it was not available on Sciroccos. Seems a bit odd seeing you can even buy it for the new GTI Golf?

Re: How much have I been offered for my Scirocco?
I hazard a guess you have not taken the dealer up on his offer! Correct, no way is the dealer making £3-4K at my expense, just as well I'm not desperate to sell! :lol: I reckon I could keep it a year and still get around £15k for it with say 5k miles on the clock. I think privately it's currently g...

Re: How much have I been offered for my Scirocco?
My guess.. £15,000? List Price £22,000 minus 10% discount, minus 15% VAT = £16830 minus around £2000 for dealer margin = £15,000. He can then put it on the forecourt for £18-19k and have around 1-2k haggling space... Was it a good guess??? No prizes, but jc74 was spot on - almost like he had inside...

How much have I been offered for my Scirocco?
Bought my car brand new in late January 2009 - 58 reg GT 2.0TSI manual, completely standard other than black pearl paint and reversing sensors and I asked my dealer if he would buy it back off me (long story). How much do you reckon I was offered?

Re: DRL Survey
I'm now on two letters, three on-line complaints and several phone calls with VW Customer Service trying to get the DRLs switched off. They have yet to reply to either of my letters or on-line complaints in writing or by eMail. They seem to prefer verbal communication only, usually to my home while...

Re: DRL Survey
I was told by VW that they could switch them off, but it would take most of the day to do, and then could not be switched on again, a sort of one shot deal, dont know if i was getting the bums rush, but ive decided just to switch to sidelights. Once your VW dealership have the coding from VW (mine ...

Re: im annoyed!!!! VW are copying me :(
If PVW / Golf+ feature that i'll cancel my subscription. No offence but its just some paint and wheels, hardly ground breaking. . . . Readers rides perhaps, but not a full feature :shrug: I take your point, and I don't like what Ryan has done. BUT it is probably the most modified new shape Scirocco...

Re: DRL Survey
Sorry to hear you're still not sorted. Lookers got the info from VW in less than 24 hrs. I think you need to speak to your dealership again? Good luck.

Well done. Looks like I've got to have another afternoon at the dealer then... :rolleyes: Do you know if they used the VAG-COM switches shown on the screen-shots above?
