Re: Issues with iPhone in new GTI

My Polo won't even allow connection via USB with my iPhone! Had some arguments with the dealer but they reckon my car was chosen without the option to have Apple USB compatibility.

As for the jumping, I get that when I connect via Bluetooth - as well as popping in the speakers and sound distortion ...

Re: Creaking clutch

VW diagnosed the issue as a faulty clutch pedal box. They didn't have all the parts when I first took it in, but I'm taking it back next week to have a new clutch pedal box fitted - possibly the same with the accelerator pedal as that squeaks too. Madness to have this issue in such a new car.

Just an update to this in case anybody else has the same issue.

Took the car to a VW dealer who checked over the engine and said there are no faults. I went on a test drive with the mechanic who heard the noise coming from the engine but assured me there was nothing wrong and it was nothing more ...

Air Con/Engine Noise

Hi guys. I've got an annoying noise issue with my 64 plate 1.2 Polo TSI. There's a croaking (sounds like a cricket) noise which is constant after starting up the engine, and the only way I can get it to stop is by turning the air con ON - once on it sounds almost like pressure is being released and ...
