Ok so I told my mate who is a bit more technically savvy than me and he thinks it sounds like the clips that hold the window glass in place are misaligned or something and that when the window goes to close, it meets a bit of resistance from these clips and this triggers the anti-pinch sensors of th...

Ahh ok. Nice one. It hasn't done it since.

Was driving yesterday and pressed the button for the leccy windows to go DOWN. I pressed it all the way so it does the auto-full open thing, then I stopped it halfway down by putting the auto-full mode up on by accident - BUT it just stopped dead it didnt go all the way back up - THEN i pressed the ...

Pulled up outside work today and heard this new (?) noise coming from the engine, it was like a sort of tapping noise like a really small deisel engine, car was well warm, and had just been driven at a mix of slow traffic and not hard but quite hard for about 1.5 hours (forgot my laptop and had to g...

Thanks for replys. The 1.2 SE come with the standard 15" alloys, with a star shape in the middle. Will have another look ( is it the long tool thing?) Im sure its there, just checking eveythings there, dont trust VW dealer! Bought it on current PCP deal. Anyone done this before? How did you fi...

My fiesta don't even compare & the new car smell... Wonderful

Good Stuff! Enjoy your weekend!

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a car lover and an early hooner.

Whaaaat!! how is this possible? 3000 miles? whats the damage then? are they gonna sort it for you like under the warranty?

Very nice! Total cost for the upgrade, if you don't mind me asking?

DONT forget to check the oil after 800 to 1000 miles because it will almost certainly need topping up (all the others on here have, including mine at 900 miles).


DO boot it everytime you get the chance!

Yeah I read about that Edi and whilst its lovely when your tanking it around the country roads, its a pain in the arse on the motorway.

how long have you had it bennyboy? I've had mine three weeks and already done over 2000 miles!! F********K. depreciation monster.

It's quiet in yours on the motorway? Thats good. Mine is pretty loud. 70 isn't bad, it sits at about 2 and a half in 7th at 70 which is fine, but as soon as you push it to 85 or even 80 the revs creep upto 3 and thats where the noise comes in. It's the same in every gear mind, not much grunt (noise)...

...But yeah it does have that "diesel" sound to it!! but I love it :D It's wierd that you should say this and I'm sure other people will agree with me, I just bought a 6R GTi and on start up and untill the oil reaches about 60'C, mine sounds like a deisel as well!? I was as confused as yo...
