My BlueGT is flashing up '300 miles to oil change' on the dash, which presumably is for the 10k/1 year first service. I'm on a VW service plan and it clearly states in the service documentation 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever is sooner, which is fine. The car is 12 months old in November (bough...

I saw my first other BlueGT on the road today, so if you own the black '13 plate that was driving up the A444/A4082 towards Asda in Coventry, I was the Silk Blue '63 plate who overtook you in the right hand lane.

That's the first other BlueGT I've seen in 5 months of owning the car!

Hi folks, I'm about to buy a new blue GT but just having second thoughts given the price. Is everyone still happy with there cars? I would like some reassurance that I'm doing the right thing. Currently drive Mk 5 Golf GTi with DSG, now looking for smaller more economical car. Your thoughts would b...

Finally got my tyre fitted on Friday afternoon and then as I drove off the light came back on, so took it back again.

Turns out they didn't reset the sensor when they changed the tyre! It's honestly been a bit of a comedy of errors but you have to laugh at these things I guess....

They're out of stock on LoveTyres...

So, I found out I had a slow puncture on Monday night when the tyre pressure warning light came on. I took the car to a garage and the right rear tyre was registering 20psi. Topped it back up to 32 and left it overnight, by the next morning it was 28. Confirmed at VW it was a slow puncture on the wa...

I will say the reversing light is properly weedy though, may as well not have bothered (living in the sticks it's dark reversing off my drive, feels like going into an abyss...). Ha! I thought it was just me struggling with the reversing light. It's a good job the parking sensors are there because ...

Thanks Faye. Another question for you, are you satisfied with the performance of the headlights? I'm just wondering if I should go for the xenons, but have to keep a lid on the extras! Thanks Peter Well, I've only had the car for a little over a week myself but I'm more than happy with the headligh...

I have to say that this thread is a wonderful source of information on the BlueGT, and it is of great help to me, so thank you all. A little question that I'm sure you can answer for me, are the DRL's in the fog lights or the headlights, and are they LED's? I am sure I have seen some reference some...

Thanks guys.... yeah I noticed it on the consumption screen driving home tonight, but I noticed that a slight hill or a tiny press of the accelerator turns it straight off! I might have been a bit too heavy on the right foot perhaps previously!

So car is absolutely fine. just me being a dunce! lol

A few days in, I've done several motorway journeys and I have no ACT showing on the info screen while cruising. (I have a manual) Is this just a symptom of only doing 100 miles and will it start kicking in soon or could there be a problem? I had the 2 cylinder mode occur on the test drive so I know ...

Great news Faye, are you happy with the interior too? I agree with the auto wipers, they do seem to come on when necessary unlike other cars I've been in. I asked the dealership to activate auto-locks for me, so maybe give them a quick ring? The interior is perfect, the blue speed cloth really work...

Finally picked my BlueGT up today, I'm chuffed to bits with it. Took it on a little spin to the next town and the range only keeps going up! So far I've managed to stall it twice, which I'm not proud of, but the anti-stall is definitely something I need to get used to. My only gripe (and it's minor)...

It mentions it in the 1 May 2013 brochure that I have and she's confirmed that it is still the case, not sure when you ordered aniseedvan? Given mine was a car just about in build in build 5 weeks ago when I effectively ordered it, I don't know when the dealer ordered it... I did query it at the po...
