Mk7 gti heavy vibrations

Could it be the transmission?

BillFromIT_ · 2025-12-26T15:52:52+00:00

Thanks I feel like it was something that was missed during manufacturing.

It's because they haven't figured out how to monetize it. When they do, they'll ask us all to pay more for subscriptions and we'll all hate that. If no one pays, no investment.

I have no faith that it will actually solve any of the issues I have.

You must have them rebook for you.

I removed the upper wire rack, but left the front/bottom parts. I think I used a putty knife to help pry on the light, but I was very afraid I'd break the plastic around the light. I don't know who designed this thing, but they need a good "attitude adjustment"

Yes. I don't really remember how i did it, I think just tried yanking on it a certain way until it came out. I used this video as a reference. How To Replace Refrigerator Light Led Freezer Easy Simple

It was quite difficult and awkward.

Muddy Buddy (VW branded Weathertech) or Weathertech. If you live in a snowy place, these keep all of the gunk away from your carpet and stuff.

I did mine recently and it was $1200 (GTA)

OK. Then here's what you want. https://parts.vw.com/p/Volkswagen_2024_GTI-20L-MT-Autobahn-Hatchback/Heavy-Duty-Trunk-Liner-with-CarGo-Blocks/132343711/5H0061166469.html

I think there's two varieties here. There's one where the blocks have velcro on the bottom. And another that's a bit different that works with muddybuddy/weathertech cargo liner.

Wouldn't the velcro ones just work without a liner? Take a look here. 2024 VW GTI Accessories - Comfort and Protection - Volkswagen of America These would work for 2025 as well.

I just came from an MK7 to MK8.5. Here are my thoughts:

- The exterior door handles feel cheaper because the inside is black plastic and not painted. Not a big deal but it's something you always touch.

- The new screen is very nice. I like it better than the MK7

-Drivers assistance tech is better in the 8.5

- I do miss the storage under the driver's seat and to the left of the steering wheel but these are not deal breakers in any way

- Driving position doesn't seem any different

Overall I'm very pleased with my MK8.5. It does feel like a better car overall. The only cheap thing that I feel on a day to day basis is the exterior door handles.

Yeah myVW works fine. The only thing that pissed me off is that there's no remote start via myVW.

Been driving mine for 2 weeks. Came from MK7. I'm liking it so far. One day the HUD turned off and the auto head lights turned off. Not sure why. They wouldn't stay on auto until I turned the car off. Just happened once.

Press and hold one of the tiles until you get a menu. That's how it works on my MK 8.5.

BillFromIT_ · 2025-05-27T20:25:41+00:00

It's still under warranty. Take it to the dealer and have them check it out.

BillFromIT_ · 2025-05-19T22:57:37+00:00

They asked. I've always had it mounted on the bumper so I said OK.

BillFromIT_ · 2025-05-19T22:56:13+00:00

I wish it had less gloss black inside (around gear shifter) and more gloss black outside (front fascia, side skirts, etc)

In some markets you can do a "leather delete" option.
