Re: Panoramic Sunroof

No problem with mine, I love it. I also have heated seats and always use one or the other when driving, depending on the season/weather. The only thing to remember is that, despite its name, it most definitely is not panoramic. It looks like it from the outside, but inside you just get the 'old' let...

Re: My pure white Polo Gti 6c

Very nice, congrats. I made a similar move, going from a VW Up! to a Blue GT - night & day, as you say :)

Re: Sunglasses Holder

Yeah, at $15 they're so cheap you may as well get one just for the hell of it.

Re: SUNGLASSES HOLDER

Can you post the part number and approximate cost of the grab-handle glasses holder, please, as I would like one on my BGT. Are they from the latest Mk7 Golf?

Re: Is it possible to switch climatronic?

I asked my Ford dealer to do this on my Transit Custom van. Total cost was about £600 and, to be perfectly honest, it wasn't worth it.

Re: Blue GT - 2-/4-cyl. mode 'hunting'

Reassuring, in a way. I thought it might be my DTUK box. TBH, I do wish there was a dash-mounted switch to temporarily deactivate the COD feature, as it can be annoying. Sometimes you really feel a shunt as it kicks in & out.

Blue GT - 2-/4-cyl. mode 'hunting'

Not sure if this is because of the DTUK tuning box I have fitted, but my BGT often seems to 'hunt' between 2- and 4-cylinder mode, particularly when on the motorway at about 80mph/130kph. It's a bit like when old automatic gearboxes couldn't decide which gear to be in and hunted between two. Anyone ...

Re: Any one else got fogged up headlights?

I've had this problem on BMWs and Jaguars in the past (but not my Polo so far...). The vent holes occasionally allow moisture into the housing, but they are designed to clear/vent as soon as you take the car out again.

The DTUK box takes power from 150 to about 180, so a 20% increase.

Re: 2015 Polo SE Design, LED daylight lights

I fitted 60W LEDs in mine 6 months ago and, despite being warned on here that they might be too bright, I've yet to be flashed. They just look like normal 'bright white' DRLs to me.

Re: Blue GT coming up 2000 miles - oil change?

Mines done about 4000 miles and I haven't even checked the oil level yet. If it breaks, it's their problem :D
