Re: GTI and GTI plus owners experiences

@monkeyhanger do you notice any differences between the gpf and non version? Sound? Performance?

Re: GTI and GTI plus owners experiences

My aircon smells musty for a while when I first start up. Anyone else experienced this?

Re: GTI engine specs

Yes I'm well aware of the pros and cons, had two previous tuning boxes on other cars. The JB4 is one of the best and has ability to delete error codes if necessary

Re: GTI engine specs

I have a JB4 tuning box fitted from Burger Motorsports. They say the biggest restriction is indeed the small cooler and potentially causes issues particularly in the summer here and warmer climates. It is supposed to be good for 245 hp but not much more without improving the cooling. Sent from my SM...

Re: Polo gti practicality

I have the Polo Gti+ but have previously done lot of miles in a Golf GTD and driven the GTi a number of times. Personally, if affordable I would go for the Golf. I think the refinement is a little better and it uses slightly better quality materials in the cabin, for example the door cards. Also the...

Re: GTI and GTI plus owners experiences

5500 miles completed and I have similiar experiences. Pros; - Sharp to drive, handles really well. - Actually sounds pretty good too with little pops from the exhaust. - Nice interior and love the digi dash and infotainment system. Quite a grown up feel for a small car. - love the adaptive cruise - ...

Re: New GTI + delivery

Well, I've waited (granted - not as long as some!) but now the day has come and I have to give up. Following placing an order on May 24th for a GTI + with Brescias & DBP paint, I'm still waiting for a build date. Originally told Sept, then Jan and now I have been told an UNCONFIRMED build is lo...

Re: GTI and GTI plus owners experiences

Makes a huge difference depending on length of trip and driving style. I have averaged 34 mpg over 5000 miles. My commute is 10 miles and I get around 30mpg but I also do longer trips on motorways which goes up to 40+

Re: Brescia wheels

Hi, I would love to but my car is on pch so I don't think I can change. I'm sure there will be plenty of other offers... To be honest, the person collecting the car at the end of the PCH would be highly unlikely to even notice the wheels had been changed. They'd have to be very knowledgable of the ...

Re: Brescia wheels

Anyone able to tell me what the ride is like? Collecting a New GTi + with 18 inch Brescia wheels. How harsh is the ride on our potholed roads? If too harsh dare I ask if anyone would swap new Brecias for a 17 inch wheel. Just testing if this might appeal to someone. Grudgey Ooh very harsh! You can ...
