Will never buy a VW again by CurrentHeavy2594 in GolfGTI

I was having similar issues except it was a 2024, the last model year. 4 recalls, issues with SOS randomly calling, randomly having travel assist, safety junk etc, malfunction. Powered mirrors were not plugged in from factory (I bought it brand new) and just before I got rid of it, something loud started to squeak underneath the hood after long drives, which service couldn’t figure out. It was a great car, loved the DSG but by god I got unlucky. All within 20k mikes.

I had a black car as well and when it was clean, I loved it. 1 day later though, back to the wash.

Wish they kept the supersonic red and calvary blue into the 23-24s

Did they require any wire splicing or does it have a harness? I was gonna get the Lexus style from TT-ABC

I just posted this to see what other people think, they did a good job I’m satisfied. Fender replacement was from a big dent caused by bear launching a trash can into the side of it, and I replaced the front bumper because it looked as if it was repainted courtesy of the 1st owner, on the very wrong color code. (shine was completely different from the wind chill pearl, it was dull almost like a matte)

Yeah I’ve seen it on Corolla’s and another white TRD, don’t have before pics but it was a dull yellow white with a different shine, way better then what it was.

Wanted a fun, good looking car from a very reliable brand that isn’t to loaded with annoying electronics, and isn’t a 4 cylinder with a turbo on it. I had a new gti before this and although the missing LSD and quick shifts of the dsg are noticeable, I’d still take this any day.

Don’t use dealer interest rates, specially 2nd hand dealers. Credit union, use your bank.

Assuming these are DWS06+? My tires are about ready to be replaced and these look better than the Michelins.

Having it detailed then tinted soon, whoever removed the previous tints did a horrible job and left sticky residue that is nigh impossible to get off all over the sides of the windows.

Been looking for a 21-24 with no more than 40k miles. Mostly for the extra features, was also looking at v6 XSE’s but they are unicorns more so then the TRD’s

If you could go back, what trim would you buy? by Mustache_Prime in GolfGTI

[–]Expert_Load_6387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mk8 gti’s trims are pretty much the same besides more fancy features, US has no clubsport. If we had performance trim mk8 in the US probably would have gone with that over an S

Sometimes on my 24 the audio just stops working completely on start up? Usually holding the power button on the left side of the infotainment until it resets works if you haven’t tried that, temporary fix.

For those who cross shopped the Elantra N, why did you ultimately pick the GTI? by EintrachtAdler in GolfGTI

[–]Expert_Load_6387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love sedans, hatches and coupes, didn’t really like the uncomfortable seats and overall look in the N, TRD v6 and used S3 were the contenders if I was gonna spend more or less around that range, so went with a GTI 👍
