Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

Mine is behaving itself so far.
Only thing I wonder is why android auto happily plays YouTube music with artwork and on other occasions says I need to upgrade to YouTube premium to access service.

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

Here's an observation. Compared to my 2019 model the doors, particularly drivers, have a more satisfying clunk as they shut.

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

So for me first time having matrix lights. Quite cool watching the car detecting oncoming vehicles and seeing segments of the main beam switch off and on so not to dazzle. Like it.

Re: Normal mode a big 'sluggish'

I have to say I'm not feeling mine is sluggish and I have felt like it covers ground well and with more determination than my 2019 model. Curious. I'm with @SRGTD on the sport mode, couldn't live with that switched on all day, would drive me nutz. Great for short bursts of fun but not all the time, ...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

@SRGTD. Will be interesting if the ride remains the same . I remember seeing a vid regarding the car where they said the ride had hardened compared to the previous model. Didn't like that idea. But that's not what I'm finding. I was shown the VW connect working but the jury is out for me in whether ...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

So far enjoying the car. Soaks up the bumps better than my 2019 version. I know it's had a tweak but it feels a stronger power delivery than before. Slightly disconcerting at first the car trying to steer you if you haven't signalled a lane change that it deemed necessary, but that's OK. And the hea...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

My dealer telling me that they aren't impressed my car is still stuck at the port. If its not here soon they'll go and get it apparently. They've booked me in for the new car on Friday afternoon this week.

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

I have seen another one and driven one.
Good job really, as mine 10 days on or so is still stuck at the UK port. What a crock of ****.

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

I was told about 9 days ago that my car had landed in the UK. Was going to be told when it hit the PDI centre. No news yet. Such a protracted process again. Digging out an old phone and in the days when you got a regular text update with status, it took 7 days to arrive at the dealership. Next time ...

Re: WeConnect issue

Only thing I've ever connected is my phone to the car for music.
I don't use half the kit, don't know why I keep buying them. :lol:
