Changed the MFD fuel consumption correction factor from 104% to 103% as the mpg readings have been consistantly under-reading a little since adjustment from the over optimistic factory setting (100%) two years ago.

So if mine's wrong does that mean my mpg is being conservative or optimistic?

I am not that technically minded and if it not for all you excellent people posting instructions etc on how to do things it would not have been possible for me to complete what I have done today. Big thanks.

I am a newbie and I know it is not much but I have now changed all internal and external bulbs where possible to LED's and the results are fantastic. Included blowing a fuse which I learned how to find and replace on this forum. All in all it has cost me £25 so I am well impressed with such a cheap mod.

I debadged the Bluemotion badge on the rear of my Scirocco. It was really doing my head in making everything look very cluttered, took about an hour in total though to get the sticky pad and residue off completely but a combination of heat, tar remover, polish, clay and the help of a good friend got the job sorted in the end.

I took it in for its first service (since I bought it in Nov12). Apparently it's not going to have a full inspection service, but just an interval. I was surprised that you could have 3 intervals before the main inspection. It means I have more money to spend on other things though :)
