What did you do to your Scirocco today?

[NickRocco3]

Well...technically i havent done anything to it....but today i did buy my first Scirocco :-) so happy and cant wait to pick it up saturday! just working out what to do first!

[Jamie_liverpool]

Mine took me and the dog to Moel Famau in north Wales, nice little run and averaged 58 mpg, quality!!!

So if anyone seen a 12 player candy white with a west highland terrier hanging out the passenger side it was me!!!

Currently sat at VW midlands having my Revo remap Stage 1 installed, can't wait to see the results, what's even better was its my Birthday present off my girlfriend!

Sounds like you've got yourself a 'keeper' there!

[christian_VW]

Second that ^^^^^

[GrizzlyGreeno]

Indeed. I'm a very lucky guy

Dyno went very well, and the difference is amazing with the Revo map. Very happy. Would also like to mention that using Shell Vpower has made a huge impact on performance, they advised they usually see a 10% drop in power on the remap when using standard or cheaper super unleaded products, boosting at 2 bar with a 0% drop in power!

Glad your happy with the remap, i bet she rips now! Im looking at getting mine done in the next couple of weeks, how much did it set 'her' back if you dont mind ? Did they say whether you will get improved mpg just as i drive a lot of motorway miles!

[GrizzlyGreeno]

I have been sponsored by Revo on the RICO Rally so she did get a discount, it was £410 altogether including the dyno read outs which are £25 when you get it done at the same time as the map.

I commute from Sutton Coldfield to Coventry everyday on the M6 and I have been advised as long as I drive economically, which I do, I will see a slight improvement so let's see, I will PM you the results Christian.

[christian_VW]

Excellent cheers grizzly, looking forward to get it done and get it on the dyno too!!
Hopefully see an improvement across the board!

[RisingRoc]

Just put it in for its fourth year service and MOT...finger crossed!

Update: Passed the MOT no problem Got the brake fluid and all filters changed as well, but due to the garage being so late in coming back to me with the MOT Report, they didn't have time to do the Cambelt and return the car to me tonight. Going to leave it for a couple of months and then get it done.

Just added led's inside and out, what a big difference well happy
I would say this is a must do mod....

[GrizzlyGreeno]

I agree Matt I did this to mine last weekend and it looks amazing, license plate and reading lights are my favourite difference. Festoon and footwell lights also look nice!

[christian_VW]

Any reccomendations of where to get the leds from ive got the numberplate leds which look great at night! Just want the interiors and sidelights, cheers chris

[RisingRoc]

Do a search on here for Flux Bulbs. A guy that sells them all and several people have used.


Back on topic, I gave mine a bit of an internal and external spring clean since we're now into March. Swapped back in the luxury mats and broke my clay bar cherry. Amazed at the difference in quality of finish for such little effort. Waxing is still a pain in the arse though!

[whiteDevil_170]

Spent 3 and half hours giving mine a good clean.
Washed it then used iron out to get rid of any iron fallout then used obliterated to get rid of a build up of tar.
Then washed again, then dryed whole car then used tough prep for base coat , followed by 2 coats of tough coat.
Then I sealed the wheels using poor boys wheel sealant. Used revive on the trim parts. Then used crystal on the windows. A lot of effort but it looks great and its got some protection on it now. All products used was auto finesse. apart from wheel sealent. Post pics later.

[GrizzlyGreeno]

I'll second the above and spent roughly 3 hours cleaning, waxing, taking off the tar with 303, then going over the car with Iron X for this years cover against residue, finished off with Meguires and Werkstat detailing and wheel shine, wheels are going in tomorrow for black gloss coat so looking forward to that.

Have also fitted Revo and other decals today, pictures to follow!

[GrizzlyGreeno]

Wheels coated Satin black, interior trim wrapped carbon fibre (not yet finished) and decals fitted. Found the interior trim very easy to remove.







Very happy, now less than 2 weeks until the cup spoiler to be finished and H&R springs to be fitted.

[BunnyJen]

Mine got turned into a hen party wagon this weekend.....it's now covered in glitter.

Here is the bride to be.

[Mark V]

Are congratulations in order Jen? Or is that not you, lol? :-)

[Scottydog]
