Re: NEED HELP! 1.4 122 or 160?!?!
Hi there after enjoying our 122 for the past 2 years 9 months and now having to look for a new lease, I would have gone for the 160 without a second thought had the facelift come in sooner, and not in the middle of our lease change. As with the 122 you have already worked out, it lacks the power of ...

Re: Centre wheel cap size
Thank you kindly for that information, didn't know you could buy just one, so it may as well be a trip to the dealer at that price

Re: Bonnet Rod Rattle?
Hi i have found when closeing the bonnet that the holder is very lose fitting to the bonnet rod, what i do is wrap a small bit of rag round the rod were it clips in so it stops any rattle and i always have a bit of rag to take the oil level.

Re: 122 MPG
Think its about 41 - 42 mpg on mine that's after 12,000 mls and driven carefully, any heavy footed acceleration will cost !!!!! as in any car. the 122 may be the lowest powered scirocco but its still no slouch.

Re: Getting time for a change
Always buy what you feel is you, anything else will always be second best. I will be leasing another scirocco next July, because it just ticks all the boxes, for both my wife and me.

Re: Interior Swap- Thinking about buying a Scirocco
God that looks like a basic DIY job,
has it been stuck on or what!!! if you like the car that much get the price down for that reason, but there are other less problem cars around and it may pay to just keep looking.

Re: What would you do?
Nice to think someone cared enough to leave you a note, reward with a gift as the person will probably refuse a cash sum anyway,
to you for the thought, not all is lost in this self centred get away with it if you can island.

Re: 1.4 TSI 122 Engine noise
mine's a 1.4 TSI 122, and i haven't noticed anything unusual in normal driving, except a little bit raspy under acceleration, as if there's a slight leak , which doesn't overly bother me as it's a slightly sporty sound, but i'm keeping an eye (ear) on it, as I've had the car in to get the exhaust h...

Re: Acid wash + plastic wheel nut covers = unhappiness
You were lucky to get them to pay for them, if I forget to take them off, I just respray them after my first run in with this problem. bought some off ebay and they didn't fit due to different size lock nuts being used.

Back in the good old days WD 40 used to be good for sunroof leaks and squeaks, so worth a try.
