Quick help required finding a page!

Hi guys,
I'm trying to find a page that has all the ll the dealer checks that they undertake when certain issues are raised. e.g rattling in this area then investigate X
I remember viewing the page but can't find it despite 30 mins of looking.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Chris

I am very interested in the exhaust note does anyone know if there is a video or sound clip of it I cant seem to find it on youtube. ...

Re: 170 TDI, the good and the bad...opinions wanted

Since I had my care deliver about 3 months ago I have been very quiet on the forum (following 9 months of daily posts during the wait.) I wanted to weigh in on the whole 170 vs remap vs petrol. First thing long journeys Doing 65 up hill on motorways, 70 on flats, 80 downhill (plus the odd overtake h...

VAG-COM - Near Reading

Does anyone have the ability to offer the services of a VAG-COM unit.

I am willing to pay and wish to meddle with some setting (In particular the MPH speed display, unlock noise and reverse lights)

Thanks in advance

Re: After 9 months the wait is almost over...

good overview, You might want to see my post in the tech room about the bluetooth audio. You seem to have got your at a decent price, I did get a couple other option and the 170 so evens itself out. Consumption wise the 170 seems pretty similar. Out of interest (as it seems you have contract hired b...

Re: 2011 Changes (MY2012 changes)

Only seeing rumours and they don't hold enough water for me. Latest one puts twinkles on the front with a slightly modified rear with Golf/Polo style rear lights. Wishful thinking. Mk1 Scirocco (1974 - 1981) - had a minor change. But wouldn't call that a facelift at the time, wrap round bumpers &am...

Bluetooth Mute Issue

Hello,

I am facing an issue with sound not working when I use the media input from my iphone 4.
As soon as phone is connected I lose sound and it becomes greyed out.

I am pretty sure I have read about this in the past but cannot find the resolution.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Nice one, although I am sure once I get my car the time spend on the forum will decrease, due to being in the car rather than thinking about driving it!

It looks like there's already a mod in place, the chrome tail pipes which are not standard on the 1.4 TSI 160.
Were these added or have the started providing these on the 1.4?
