Month old battery flat!

Bought a new battery less than a month ago and it's flat, is there any common electrical faults with the polos? I notice strange noises coming from the car since I've had the car, I'm going to try my luck and ring vw in the morning see if they can check it out

Re: Fog lights

But when fog lights and fog light bulbs are one piece ( can't work fog lights without bulbs) I do not see the issue in asking a question within this thread named fog lights,
everyone on here is to help people with queries correct?
And making a separate thread named fog light bulbs Is unneccessary

Re: Fog lights

Ali123 I do apologise, been as though the topic is on fog lights, bulbs are included within the fog lights correct? and with regards to making a new thread seemed a bit pointless and naming it "fog light BULBS" don't you agree?

Re: GTI HID's fitted

im going to be fitting 8000k H7R on mine soon, seen a kit on ebay for 54.99 + 4.99 postage

i took the angels lights off as i got really fed up with them as the angel lights werent that bright and to change the bulbs would be a strip down and then hunting for the bulbs, so back to standard lights.
