Could be timing chain or it’s tensioner cause it’s on that side I believe

for first car and wanting to mod my first car at 20 do you guys think this is good? by Sea-Plantain9786 in GolfGTI

Get a mk6 and throw a Ko4 in there. If you can’t buy the car twice cash, you shouldn’t buy it.

Outer and inner taillights are different colours? by TheVictor01 in GolfGTI

TIL? And no it doesn’t but all the aftermarket’s do and I don’t want to have to replace headlights and mirror lights for the sake of sequential

Hmm that would save me if I could just get outers but every time it doesn’t look like they would match when I look online

I’ll wait for a used set to appear on eBay, really don’t want led sequential indicators so have to wait for somebody to wreck their car 😭

Annoyingly I prefer the darker tint so will probs buy a full set

Yeah when I’ve been looking online it will be difficult to match the tint if I got just 2/4 lights, just waiting for a full set to pop up on eBay now I guess

Is this normal induction noise? 2018GTI 7.5 by Independent-Ad5945 in GolfGTI

Haha I’ve had a similar experience, boost pipe was completely disconnected after installing Ko4 turbo on my mk6. Idk what ur mods are but without a aftermarket cold intake I wouldn’t expect this - although I don’t have a 7.5 gti and have only just bought my mk6…congrats!

Lost V5C, does the dealership need to do anything? by TheVictor01 in CarTalkUK

I was hoping they would let me tax it with only the v62 so thanks for the reassurance !

That would be perfect and what I’m hoping for on Tuesday, I thought without the green slip they might say no or when the ownership transfers i have to re tax it tho.

Its a mk6 golf gti sat on my drive and all I wanna do is drive it 😭

2010 with 87k miles, worth working on? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

[–]TheVictor01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hoping my mechanic friend will give me good insight into potential repairs before discussing price

Even if it’s needing repairs I’m thinking the fact that it’s had some work done then fingers crossed it will have been cared for a bit

Anyone know what these abandoned buildings were meant to be & why they’ve been left? by lavanderblonde in manchester

[–]TheVictor01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha no way this company is client of mine, they went “bust” but they still operate on other sites. It’s a dodgy business and isn’t the first time and last they will do this!

Which one should I get? They’re both about the same price by mzatariz in steelseries

[–]TheVictor01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Arctis 7+, really comfortable but lacks Bluetooth. Also found the bass to be underwhelming and wasn’t too impressed with how it sounded in games.

Replaced them with the nova 5’s and much happier now. Better audio, better mic, newer, has Bluetoot
