Not had a proper chance to give the Sport button a go yet, think I need to find some good roads (any suggestions, North of England?)


What about Holmfirth Road (A635) and Holme Moss Road (A6024)? Just a bit North of the Woodhead Pass I think.
Watch our for speed camera van on the A635 though ...

Mine has started with a high pitched, rubbery, squeaking noise from the steering wheel. It happens when you steer slightly in either direction and is more noticeable at lower speed. It's insanely annoying.

This is in additional to the rattle that also comes from the steering wheel area.

I finally managed to give the GTI a decent run out over the past two days, so here's some observations.

I got around 40mpg average on a motorway run with it occasionally going higher. That's better than I've had on the commute so far (28mpg).

It's a great motorway cruiser, comfortable and easy to ...

Is anyone with their gti noticing alot of juddering when setting off in start stop traffic?

Is mirror dip on reverse enabled on the Polo GTI? There doesn't seem to be an option for it and following the procedure to set it didn't do anything.

My GTI finally arrived this morning. I think I ordered at the start of May. It was actually at the dealers 3 weeks ago but I couldn't have it because my previous lease hadn't finished yet.

I'll upload some pictures tomorrow.

Could someone who has had their GTI delivered do me a favour? I see on the VW website you can get a digital version of the manual if you enter your reg or VIN. I've tried putting a reg from one of the pictures posted on this thread in but it didn't work. Could anyone put theirs in and post a link ...

My GTI is due to arrive late July. However, it's a lease car done through work, so they won't actually let me get it until my old lease expires in mid September! So it's going to be sat around for 6 weeks...I hope the battery doesn't go flat.

Don't suppose anyone speaks Japanese to translate the bit at the end? The Polo driver missed one of the balloon by the look of it.

I demand videos!
