I'm not sure that's why they stopped selling it, it's quite common for VW to bring the flagship model for a range in early and end it early too.JohnPolo wrote:The fact that VW UK stopped selling the outgoing GTI while it was still possible to order the rest of the model line up pre refresh tells you something.
Certainly, I seem to remember they did it with the golf, and Audi have done it with the S3 too, as I found when I tried to order an 8P version well before the 8V was available. The dealer tried to sell me any number of 2.0T quattro S-Lines instead.
I'm. It denying there have been issues, be daft to, but the ones you hear about are a self selecting sample, nobody really posts to say 'mine is great'!
My own car seems to have settled now, and is covering north of 3000 miles to half a litre or less.
I do get occasional 2nd gear DSG clutch judge though, when the engine is hot and I've been driving around town in atop start. I don't get it in manual/paddle shift mode though. I'll mention it when it goes for a service in the next couple of months.
