New GTI

[Andy4791]

A quick silly question does the GTI have a dial where you can adjust the headlight height or is it automatic because my car doesn't seem to have the dial next to the headlights switch. I've got the convenience pack.

Anyone else got springs on yet? With pictures?

Also, how hard is the gti logo part on the key to change? My mk7 golf gti one arrived today

I put some H&R springs on a while ago and posted pics, did you see them? If not I can post the pics again.

How has it settled?

Any recent pics?

Haven't noticed that it has changed much since I've had it done, took this pic this morning, they've been on for about 2k miles now.

How much drop do the springs give it? I've herd that the shocks will go after a time with these being lowered ....

Auto. That's why they rise and dip when first starting up at night

I noticed in vcds that you can adjust the range adjustment percentage but need to work out which way to take it.

I find myself having to use main beam a lot more over my 9n3.

Friday evening when I was driving home the tyre pressure warning popped up. I pulled over and checked the tyres, everything seemed okay, no flat, so I just carried on, but a little slower. On Saturday morning still no signs of a flat tyre, but I drove to a local garage to check the tyre pressure and do an inspection of tyres. Some of them needed more air, but we couldn't find any damage on the tyres, so I did a reset of the pressure control.

After driving another 90 miles everything is fine, so probably it was a false positive.

Had exactly the same happen to me. No flat but one of the tyres had dropped about 5-6 psi. So filling them back to the correct setting and then resetting the alarm sorted it out.

I've got a Polo GT as you've probably guessed haha. I almost went with the GTI but wasn't is fan of the check seats. The power is great and if you ever feel like a bit of fun it's great. I've got the DSG box and always said I'd never have an automatic but now wouldn't have anything else. The ride quality is excellent and it is a pleasure to sit in for long periods of time. I am in the process of looking at having it chipped which I think would be good idea. The economy is amazing as on a daily commute I'm averaging around 60+ MPG but even when in sport mode with a lead boot I'm getting around 20 MPG. Hope this helps

Had a lad flash his lights at me today as we drove towards each other in Kenilworth. Both in our red 6C GTI's.

I hope to be able to do the same thing around my area. Although I probably know every one around my area who already has one.

Basically the same as what happened to me. All tires were a little below recommended psi but a trip to Tesco Petrol station soon sorted that out! Reset the button afterwards and it has been fine ever since. *touches wood*.
Actually inspired me to get a new foot-pump!

It happened to me about a week after I'd had a puncture so I was a bit mardy to say the least, but like you when I checked them they were all fine? Reset it and touch wood it's been fine since.
