Re: Dashcam power?

You should wire in an uninterrupted power supply, like a Blackvue power magic pro, Vicovation power plus or like me an Itronics ITV-80.

Re: APR Remap for Polo GTI 6c

Anyone have any info on the Revo tune? Apparently they've released their tune for the 6C GTI.

Re: Door trim (inside) behind mirrors

It seems like that gap is prevalent on all 6C GTI's, here's mine.

I only seem to see people with white car complain about it, as the light colour makes the gap very obvious.

Re: 2016 GTI LED FOG LIGHT BULBS

I've now fitted some of these bulbs to my 6C Polo GTI here in the UK (bought from a different seller). Like yourself I'm very pleased with them so far.

Re: New GTI

I'm pretty sure the manual is torque limited in first and second gear too, holding the esc button until it goes into sport mode seems to turn it off. There's a very noticeable difference in acceleration in my one. Try it out so I know it's not just all in my head. :lol:

Re: Most common Polo spec - POLL!

Doesn't quite work for us here in Australia. We only get the 5 door model, no wheel choice other than parabolic and the sports pack is fitted as standard. Wish we got the 3 door here.
