Re: New GTI
Mine cut out once with stop start enabled an once disabled. Its hesitation is wen it's running on choke I'd say. Never had to 'warm through' on any other car I've had. I have no idea about the cutting out then, maybe you were going at very low rpm in a tall gear that cut the engine out, I have expe...

Re: RE: Re: New GTI
When I'm driving with a cold engine I'm experiencing some kind stuttering, I'm not sure how to explain it, but the engine is working in a little bit jerky, uneven way - especially when going slow on low RPM. After few minutes, when it gets warm, everything works as a charm. Is anyone having similar...

Re: New GTI
Its a shame that some of you are having problems with the car, the only issue I have had thus far Is an annoying rattle that turned out to be 1 loose screw for the headlights in the engine bay. It might just be some of us have Tuesday cars and others have Friday afternoon cars. Regarding the spec if...

Re: New GTI
So I got a nice message late last week from the dealer saying my build week has been confirmed at 20/06! Managed to get the sports pack/DCC onto the spec before it got locked in, so happy days. Kept the colour as white. All the nice pictures of Silk Blue GTIs almost swayed me though. Ordered red 'G...

Re: New GTI
Already clocked 500 miles and loving it more each time I go out in it :) Onlt thing I've noticed with a fair bit of motorway driving is there is a distinct slight wind noise from the drivers door somewhere.. not too major but just something i've noticed. It's so nice to be able to accelerate past s...

Re: New GTI
I totally agree with EssexPologti's points above. After picking my GTI up on Saturday and driving around the country roads around Haywards Heath all day I can say that from initial impressions anyone ordering a GTI MUST go with the sports pack atleast. The car took a little while to get used to simp...

Re: New GTI
To be fair my MK6.5 ST had 0 rattles and that was 10 years old so I will not be impressed if the polo has any rattles

Re: New GTI
Did yours get to the port sunday? Mines in the uk now and awaiting transport. Mine arrived in the port on Wednesday last week and will be arriving at the dealers any time between now and Thursday. My dealer is Haywards Heath VW, so mine came off the boat at sheerness? All in all it will be between ...

Re: New GTI
Right so all is looking good for a saturday pick up of my solid black 3dr GTI with Nav, Sport pack, Winter pack and Conveniance pack. Can anyone advise on the best methods/ methods they have chosen to wear the engine in. I am currently thinking the best way is to let the engine get up to temprature ...
