I use a 'George', have had him for years! Great for hoovering and for washing seats and carpets!

I thought I read somewhere on line that someone overcame this issue with coding, but for the life of me I can't find it again!

I decided i wanted to increase the screen size of my headunit from 5.8" to 6.5" and stupidly thought it would be a simple plug and play excercise, but it wasnt! After removing the old MIB1 screen I discovered, although the power connector was the same, the display plug was different! After studying it for a while I worked out I could modify the plug with the aid of a sharp blade! Job done or so I thought! When I turned on the radio I was greeted with a duplicated, shrunken screen similar to the attached picture! The question I am putting out there is, does anyone know how to adjust the coding to make it work properly??

Traded it in for a Red DSG R!

I'm in Newtownards and have VCDS. If you don't get sorted give me a shout!

She loves it, drives it more than me!! I have to make do with her MK7 GTI!!😂

The OP suggested that they were available through TPS! If I could get a part number I would go back to my local TPS and order them!

I spoke to my local TPS this morning regarding a set of VWR springs for my R and was told that they can't get them! Does anyone know the part number these springs would be supplied under through TPS?

I got a great price from AUTOLINE for my R even managed to beat the price my fiancee got me and she works for HUGHES Insurance!!

So I have noticed over the past number of months that the coolant level has been dropping! I initially I put it down to an airlock in the system after VW replace the coolant due to a complaint I made of poor heat from the heater! But when having the oil changed yesterday by a local independent garage they reported a leak from the thermostat housing area! I contacted my local dealer to inquire if there would be any goodwill contribution available towards a repair, ! After a brief hold I was informed by the receptionist that she checked with the service manager and he informed her that there would be no goodwill contribution given from VW for this repair, even thought the car is just outside of warranty and has 28k miles on it! After a quick search on the internet it shows that this is a fairly common complaint so I fired off a tweet to VW customer services voicing my disappointment of the response I received! They responded later asking for my reg number and mileage and said they would look into for me! Now I wait!!

This happened to mine just before the warranty expired. The dealer claimed it was an issue with the flap where the actuator locked into and the suggested repair from VW was to shave a little plastic off it! They did this but it didn't cure the problem! Eventually, a week after the warranty expired, the flap wouldn't open at all and the dealer had to replace the actual actuator!

Some nice spots down the peninsula for pictures!

I had the same problem when I had the red R, didn’t improve any when I got the white one! 🤣

Looks like they struggle to park properly! 😂
