Re: Panoramic Sunroof
Never had a problem with mine (2012 6R GTi), and they look awesome on a white car, really adds contrast to the looks. I guess if you stay on top of cleaning, making sure the drainage is clear, then there should be no issues.

Re: Supercharger clutch
I think this is the part you're after (assuming clutch failure), the megnetic clutch is part of the pump I believe - one belt drives the pump (inner pully) and then a belt on the outer pully drives the supercharger. The inner pully drives the outer pully when the ECU wants the supercharger in play, ...

Re: Supercharger clutch
Also, from what I gather, the clutch is part of the water pump so this would need replacing as a single unit.

Re: Supercharger clutch
From what I understand basic diagnostics can give a semi-accurate fault code but VW will be able to provide more specific info.

Re: Supercharger clutch
It doessound like the magnetic clutch has failed meaning no drive to the supercharger. Best bet would be VW for a proper diagnostic, their equipment should come up with more accurate info.

Re: 6R GTI newbie with questions
Forgot to say, mine has DRL as well but its just the front on mine, didn't realise you could get rear. Needles to say, I'm not sure how you'd turn the rears off.

Re: 6R GTI newbie with questions
I think the 'tapperty' sound as you put it can be traced to the clutch that engages the supercharger. Mine does this very occasionally, usually under hard load. I think there's a newer version that can be fitted under warranty but it happens so rarely that I'm not too concerned. Regarding the lockin...
