Come on the suspense is killing me here. 😂

Any further updates?

Thanks Booth, I’ll stick with them then as they do work brilliantly. Re APC, what other good uses does this magic liquid help with [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Happy new year all, Not R related as I don’t have it anymore, however lots of knowledgeable people here so this is the best place to ask Currently use Bilt Hamber Korrosol (fallout remover) and Autosmart Tardis (tarremover). They work brilliantly but the smell is horrendous. My car and drive has the strong chemical smell for days after washing. Can anyone recommend any alternative products that don’t smell so bad [emoji3] On a side note…..I’m an APC convert. Never used it until today. Always a little sceptical of what it was and it’s uses (still don’t know uses if I’m honest). However after the initial jet wash of the car there was still quite a lot of dirt on the paintwork. I used a 20% dilution of APC on these areas, waited a couple of minutes then jet washed again; dirt washed straight off. Does much better than snow foam at removing dirt the initial jet wash leaves behind.

The Peak District pretty much sits between Derby & Leeds (slight detour west). Some great roads and scenery through the Peak District. Worth the short detour. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You need to use the -ve earthing point on the bulkhead when charging the battery whilst in the car. If the battery is out of the car you use both -ve and +ve terminals on the battery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I emailed him for a quote a few years ago…..£2500 for his full ‘White detail’ package. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve recently sold my Golf R and moved to a Tiguan. First thing I saw on the Tiguan forums was to remove the sunroof ‘spider traps’. Assuming the Golf and Tiguan share the same design. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys….. Is it possible to add the speed camera locations onto the Discover Nav (not the pro) infotainment (same head unit that’s in a mk7.5?Golf R) and have it warm you as you approach? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

To be fair I didn’t mind it. It was the Tekna model so had all the toys. We did have a few electrical issues (parking sensors beeping randomly and the electric drivers seat stuck at its furthest setting). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had the same success 4 years ago trying convince the mrs to get a Tiguan. Reason being, 7 years ago I had 100% success in swaying her car choice and we ended up with a Nissan Qashqai - and she hated it [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just been to pick it up…..lovely car inside. Being a later 2017 it comes with the 8” glass infotainment system and Active Info Display cockpit. Yes, it’s the lowest of the 3 power outputs at 150bhp / 2 litre diesel. Didn’t buy it for the power, more for its towing capabilities. I’ve always liked these cars. Tried to convince my wife to get one 4 years ago but she got the mk7.5 GTI instead. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gone for a mk2 (not the FL). Got a good strong price for my 2014 R (only lost £3000 on the purchase price from 5 and a bit years ago). Hopefully get the Tiguan Monday, just waiting for confirmation that the dealership have put a full years MOT on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

VW Tiguan R-Line DSG 4motion Pick it up Monday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, after 5 years of trouble free ownership the R has now gone. It’s been great being part of this group / community, lots of very knowledgeable folk about that have helped out immensely. Enjoy your cars all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Can anyone recommend a HPI car check service? Are they all roughly the same, or do some companies offer more information? Still worth getting if buying from a VW main dealer? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you George. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve got the JB4 with Bluetooth installed in my car. I’ve taken a deposit on the car, collection next weekend. What do I need to do in the app to allow the new owner to connect / use the JB4 with their phone? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, you will lose all the oil when you remove the pump. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks, yeah I’ve seen that. Decided to sell my car, obviously don’t want any test pilots driving it on their third party cover. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone know of a test drive policy which insures the policyholder for an hour which covers the full value of the car for sale? Is there such a thing? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
