Hi all, ive just picked up a 64 plate mayan blue, blue motion technology 1.2 tdi 75bhp.
it needs a good hoover and valet so that is the first thing on the list.
I had a lightly modified mk3 golf gti a few years back so i'm looking forward to getting the detailing gear out again.
The car had been stood for around 6 weeks so i warmed it up and took it for a blast around some local roads to blow the cobwebs out and all seemed great, the only thing i noticed was the cooling fans stayed on when i parked up at home, the temp was fine on the gauge and coolant level also fine, but i think this was maybe a dpf regen?
Is there anything else in particular i should look out for on this model? its on 69k miles and just had a big service inc belts done. Any common faults or tricks i should know of?
It will be my daily driver so i'll probably look to upgrade the speakers at some point soon, so any recommendations for that would be good, i'll probably stay away from component speakers and subs this time around just for convenience. Its a 5door btw.
