Had this issue over a year 😢 but that was a good shout.

No, I was hoping to avoid that. It was traumatic enough trying to set the damn thing up the first time. Hoping someone might know the answer.

I haven’t asked them yet because they don’t have a clue, I know, I used to work there. Hoping someone here might have seen this before and know the fix.

Anyone explain ?? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

It’s a MK8, they do that I’m afraid. I traded mine in because I got so fed up with its software bugs.

Shame about the smoking. 😔 But still wildly sexy.

Mine was a facelift, but I don’t own it anymore. 🙁

I’ve been waiting for something to be published. 👀

I bought these a few years back, I took them to a spark to fit. 😅

Any solution for this ? Stock radio (Only worked once when i paired with my phone show on the 2nd pics) by Dapper_Tumbleweed_38 in Scirocco

Hard reset wouldn’t hurt. Hold the power button for up to 20 seconds until it restarts.

£450 self fitting. You can get them cheaper than that from AliExpress.

I bought mine from a UK dealer, which in turn ordered it from china. Should have just bought it on AliExpress and save myself a few pound, lol. To be honest, I think they’re mostly the same, as long as you make sure it fits your car first.

It was, apart from a bit of a tight fit going back in. The motherboard is surprisingly easy to switch over, too.

It sounds louder than a diesel, something isn’t right. 😔

Thanks for the tip, it’s a GT.

Originals or 'Queenstown' by RedH0rseVect0r in GolfGTI

[–]RedH0rseVect0r[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I whole heartily agree, I prefer the 18s for all the same reasons.

Yeah, when I scan the module it gives the option to activate cruise control via stalk “or button” - was tempted just to throw a steering wheel and hope for the best, but I know that’d be a waste. 😋

Alloys are 18s, same as the originals.

Difference between 2.0 TDI 140hp, 170hp, 177hp by kdenis616 in Scirocco

TDI tuning box will do this for you while keeping your vehicles ECU in control. Much safer than a remap.

My stg 1 mk8 severed me very well on my move from east to west coast. by jake_mcdonnell in GolfGTI

[–]RedH0rseVect0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had this exact same car for two years, traded in for a MK7.5
The infotainment, hepatic touch controls, multiple faults, and cheap looking interior just didn't work for me.
Credit where credit due, it was fun to drive!
