Re: DSG vs Manual - opinions please!

Re: DTUK Box, peoples reviews and reliability
Hi c_randell_23 ,
If you're looking for reviews head over to the Polo 6R 6C Owners Club UK there is a lot of feed back on there regarding the box. Which I run myself.

Re: Polo GTI 6C DSG clunk when changing 2nd to 3rd in M mode
You're not letting the car get up to temperature if this is happening, make sure you run the car for 20-30 minutes too get it hot... mine does it. Is the car stock or tuned?

Re: Sun Roof... Yes or No ?
I have a Polo GTI with the pan roof...
definitely aint cheap but I don't regret getting it... keeps the car nice and cool... makes the car much lighter in side.
