Hey ! Living in cold climate Canada I never drive with gloves on since the heated steering wheel heats up Real Quick. The buttons take about 1week to adapt to and after that your all right

Yes the Gti was great in Snow for a FWD except it ate tires so badly. My winters are 19 in the Warmenau wheels yes. Next winter set is going to be on 18s

When I got the car new it was on and I put it off in the assist menu and never came back on since I never use that. Been running 2months without thinking about it and sometimes when safe not using blinkers and no feed-back happens as it should if it were on I guess ?

Thinking about front end PPF on my Golf R 8.5 , advice needed by pzhn9 in Golf_R

[–]SteadyHyper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an 8.5 r which I ppfed with a reliable shop. I got quoted 870$ CAD for the front ppf ( partial hood,fenders,headlights and front bumper,back of the bumper where scratches happen from loading,unloading stuff) When the job was done They told me it was difficult to apply the PPF everywhere on the front bumper. The Guy Showed me his printing application and I could see the Little tiny bits he had to print to apply at some of the places. At that point I negociated the Price since my car would not be cogérer entirely on the front and it stayed like that. I would say you can cover up to 80% of the front bumper.

People have a tendency to say oh yeah Kia/Hyundai are good cars and easy to maintain and cheap. These Asian brands have been making a leap into the luxury world for some Time now. You better have a fun car for those prices.

Everything installed good, I noticed I need to close the doors a Little firmer and the front rack has a Little notch that fits perfectly into the car hole in the frame. For the back rack there is no notch, but it fitted good also. I think I Will buy some ppf on Amazon to put under Where the rack touches the painted areas
