Thanks

I can confirm my 2014 BGT is also 6R at 7th and 8th characters along the VIN - but no idea if it should be 6C or not.

Quick update on my car - it has been back in at the garage as the CMS/Discover Nav is in need of getting replaced by a new unit due to it rebooting and shutting itself down intermittently. They never had the part in stock last time it was in the garage sadly but they did fix the issue with the Sat ...

Cheers guys.

Strange thing happening with the Discover Nav unit this morning it kept switching itself off after 5 seconds took me ages to get it going again - constant on/off . Hope that this is just a one off glitch as i've had enough of having to go back to the dealers when i had the vRS!

Hi all

I've been lurking around the forums for some time but never joined up so this is my first post. I previously owned a 6R Polo 1.2 Match. Liked the car but not the engine. I've since had a Fabia vRS Mk2(terrible oil consumption!) and still have a Golf Mk6 1.4 TSi Match which is getting ...
