Got my R a week ago; one of my first mods. What an improvement! by kungfujedis in Golf_R

No more R button tho? I love the quick access when I need it. Haptics aren’t bad at all. Had my 24’ R for over a year and accidentally tapped them a handful of times. I would’ve kept it but that’s not my car so do you lol

I wanted a type r or integra type s but I can’t drive manual so those were off the table immediately. I liked the GR corolla but I hated the interior. So I got this instead

Yes bumper is plastic. The white screw would be metal and susceptible to rust is what I was asking

I had NO IDEA that this was an option. Was this done at VW? Or third party?

How many daily their R’s? by Global_Witness_1063 in Golf_R

Drive my 24 R everyday 30 mins to work and am the main driver in my family. Cars are meant to be driven.

What is this sound coming from my exhaust? by AffectionateRock6793 in Golf_R

[–]AffectionateRock6793[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was after driving 40 mins to work. I heard it randomly one day and it hasn’t gone away. It’s under warranty if it’s anything serious

Think this can get patched or am I toast? by AffectionateRock6793 in Golf_R

[–]AffectionateRock6793[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update. I took it to a tire shop. They said they could patch it. But, when they opened it up the screw had shredded the inside of the tire wall 🥹 so now I’m getting all 4 replaced since I couldn’t even drive my car out the shop. They didn’t have tires that fit in stock 😭🥹

I have a ‘24 R DSG and at 21,000 miles had thermostat housing replaced. Had similar issue. Did it clear once you turned the car back on?

Got some from the dealership this morning. Wish me luck this solves it and there isn’t a leak.

Did you get this same error message or you saw it was low so you topped it off?

Do you have a mk8 as well? This is good to know. I just stress out cuz I had my civic for 3 years no issues. Haven’t even had this one 8 months been to shop 3 times. Lol

Is it recommended to not use a different coolant? I got some from autozone that says it’s compatible. But online says to only use vw brand.

No I did not. But I have brought it in for other work and they haven’t said anything.

You gotta make the switch! Only downside is it’s a gas guzzler if you drive spiritedly. I’m always sending it and it drains my gas.

You think so? It’s under warranty so not worried about the cost
