  1. Be careful with low battery situation, the car needs to be above a certain percentage for the steering rack to work I think it’s 65% And to have the rack go out on you is mega scary! VW will try and get you to replace your steering rack and column, Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. With the four years I’ve been driving I haven’t been caught speeding. The golfs do have excellent brakes to slow you down near instantly! Ps. Brembo pads are great on stock callipers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Mine has been set to 140mph. I could safely say that I’ve set it off only twice and I’m running a remapped gti e40 [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. From what I understand the difference between 7 & 7.5 are the lights, but I’ve seen people who has installed a 2018 light unit onto a 2015 vehicle. But to have the panel replaced for £530 inc. labour, it’s a good deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F262956085534 I haven’t replaced a front wing on a golf but have found that they’re pretty much the same on all cars, usually held in with a few bolts under the wheel arch. 2 hours max installation time. You might need to find the correct paint and get it professionally painted if it’s not colour correct. I had this happen to me lucky I had a dash cam with parking mode, caught the perpetrator and claimed on their insurance, Derek. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. If you have an android device, you can buy a wireless reader obdeleven, there’s an option in it where you can permanently leave the exhaust flaps open, then you can manually close them when you don’t want it There are other mods too, my favourite is audible lock tone.

  7. Thanks for writing back! The extra money you saved can go on a far away flights! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. Has the car had a knock on the front bumper? Has the car had tracking done? Has the car had a steering rack replacement? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. That's the danger of having nice things, the standard gets moved along. I had the fortune of driving a Mercedes E220 2019 courtesy car, and the audio (although having the same amount of drivers) wasn't anywhere as near as dynaudio, I spent time EQ'ing the speakers, but to no avail, the sound was congested in the midst and highs leaving out a lot of detail in the bass, the bass was there but kind of presented itself in a tinny sense. Like knocking on hard wood [emoji23] The cockpit was nice tho.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. The only way I can think of distortion is probably it has has something in the door panel or side bins. The only way is to take it back to VW and try to replicate the issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Sorry it's in Russian. I'm sure the setup and menu option is the same. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Depends on your proficiency, if you're good with electrics it's just a matter of buying the drivers and wiring it in yourself The system consists of 4 bass drivers one in each door and 2 pillar tweeters, you'd have to get the sub separate. If you have the navigation 2 I think you can reprogram it on vcds otherwise I think you have to get the head unit too which comes with a cd unit in the glovebox After looking online they're going for £1000+ just for the audio drivers, I think head unit and accompanying cd will be another £1000 then there's installation fees if you can't do it all It might need coding to the car too! I think it'll be easier if you bought Android based pioneer head unit and speaker set... Cheaper and immediately an improvement in sound Vs stock. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Actually thinking about it, when you have more individual drivers to play a specific frequency the separation in your audio is better therefore you get less interference from neighbouring frequencies. So by adding a sub you have gained more depth in your tracks. Another point would be your source of audio, and the files you play, if you're listening to compressed files like apple music then the stock stereo after EQ'ing would be adequate. Also, if you like your music loud, distortion will be an issue so any named brand premium audio should reduce that as they're using bigger drivers, which will distort too but at an uncomfortable volume. Sound signature, if you're into your bass and volume then it's worth the price but if you're into a natural - flat EQ I would say, save yourself the money and buy a decent set of personal earphones.
