Re: New Tyres (2016 Polo GTI)

I have the Michelin on my front and you will absolutely love them. So grippy. No wheel spin and the handling is crazy. Had the conti’s and they’re awful compared to the Mich

Re: New tyres 6C GTI

I went for the PS4’s in the end on the 40 profile. Prob the best purchase you can buy for the car. It’s a must for all owners. I also heard the new GTI will have them on but I also seen a few reviews on YouTube of the new Gti on track and mentioned the PS4’s. So much better than the Conti’s. Just ex...

Re: New tyres 6C GTI

Also came across a good deal on the Michelin Pilot Sport cup 2 but the profile is 45 instead of 40. Anyone think it’s a good idea?...

Re: New tyres 6C GTI

I’m thinking the Mich P4’s as I have Conti’s on. Think the wire is showing on mine. The Dunlop’s look good and heard that it performs well.

Re: Bad brake rubbing.

I will ask the dealership when it goes in. At low speeds it's quite loud. Yeah the hand brake works fine as well as the auto hill start. It makes that horrible sound when you washed your car and the brakes are oxidise and haven't drive the car for a few days. Argghhhh

Thanks for the info :)

Re: Bad brake rubbing.

Let me know how you get on. I think I will wait until I get the car serviced. I'm unsure if other people have had the same issue and that they had new brakes fitted. It's very annoying as at times the rubbing is quite loud when you reverse in the drive. Even the passengers said that it's quite loud....

Bad brake rubbing.

So as of late I'm getting as brake rubbing at slow speeds. I believe it's coming from the rear. Covered 3.5k miles and it's starting to really annoy me. Also when I dip the couch that's starting to squeak. Bar from that everything g is fine :)

Anyone else having these issues?

Interior LED Upgrade for the 6C GTI

Has anyone installed any Led's for the interior? Come across the Philips X-treme Vision 6000k 43mm Festoon LED Bulb. Any help will be great.

Re: New GTI

I picked up my new GTI in Silver. I think the colour shows the shape definition different to the other colours if that makes sense :) Will add some pics when clean. Talking about clean, going to be using Valet Pro Citrus pre wash and power washer. Don't like to touch the car in the winter and scratc...

Re: Polo GTI w/CarPlay Support? (or Anyone with MIB II?)

So I'm picking up my pre owned Polo tomorrow and know that it doesn't have car play installed but is there a way that I can get it installed as the dealership can't do it. They said all it is a code but vw can't help. Wondering if anyone has had the stereo modified to get car play for the IPhone :) ...
