Re: Lowering springs

Unsure if the H&R 28711-2 fit on GTI's with the Sport Select suspension ("adaptive" dampers). H&R seems to think so, but all retailers I've inquired at, disagree and claim they will not. Who do I believe, the half dozen of retailers. Or the manufacturer. :D My car has the sport se...

19" 8.5j Wheels on a Polo - Will it work?

Hi Guys, Need some advice please. Thinking about fitting 19" Rotiform wheels that are 8.5j et45 on my Polo. I don't have access to a wheel to test fit. I currently am running a 19" 8j et43 wheel with no issues. The optional wheel on a Polo GTi is 18" 7.5j et51. Will the 8.5j et45 work...

Re: GTI and GTI plus owners experiences

Enjoying my GTi.

H&R springs and the OZ 19" wheels have made a major difference with the handling.

There have been a few reports of fuel pump failure in SA. Waiting to hear if my vehicle needs a replacement fuel pump.

Re: 115ps 1.0L Review / Discussion

I had the 1.0 TSI 115ps in a DSG, was a joy to drive, I upgraded this car to the GTi. Rattles on mine were becoming unbearable. My daily is a manual 1.0 TSi, I must admit I'm struggling to get use to it, the engine is starting to loosen up a little making the drive a little pleasurable. Wish that it...

Re: Polo AW1 Coilovers

Hi Guys, I've fitted H&R springs to my cars. Ride is fairly good seeing that these cars look like 4x4's in standard guise. There are 2 versions, the standard drop and the ultra lows. I've gone with the standard 35mm drop, the ultra lows is a 50mm drop. 28711-1 - for my RLine 28711-2 - for my GTi...

Looks great. Really like the wheels; are they Oz Racing Leggera’s? Much better than the standard diamond cut wheels in my opinion.
Thank you.

Yes, they are the OZ Leggera HLT.
