Pretty sure it’s the average, as discussed above.

Mine certainly moves like an average and not like a lowest consumption.

Just refueled my Polo GTI and reset all fuel/distance settings to zero, drove about 10 Km and my Av fuel display was showing 7.6 Litres/100Km but the red arrow was hovering ...

For those still waiting for their GTI and doubting if it’s still worth it, there’s an interesting new review from a new YouTube publisher. He didn’t get all facts right, but it’s a fun review all the same:-

I’ve seen the same issue. I use the sports info with power output, boot pressure and oil temp (same as monkeyhanger).

I have also noticed the the oil temp has a ’—‘ displaying even when the temperature is well above 50.C. This only happens around 30% of the time and tapping on the radio button ...

I am new here, currently driving golf 7 , ( the second ) I fancied a change ! Ordered polo gtl + on Monday 13th May, no one seems to know accurately when it will be here , I will pass on info on here when I get it . Meanwhile I have been reading reviews and watching YouTube videos about Polo GTI ...

That's great thanks Martin. :D


You’re welcome. The oil temperature only reports from 50.C upwards. That’s usually 4 or more miles from cold. I usually wait until it’s above 70.C until I start accelerating hard. I plan to keep my GTI for quite a few years, so I’m a little OCD about making sure ...

Hi S_94.

To get the sports information on the infotainment screen, hit the ‘Car’ soft button on the right, then as you move your hand to the screen it’ll pop up a select option at the bottom. Tap that, select the ‘Sports’ option and it’ll present three dials. You can swipe the dials up / down to ...

Hey guys.

Remember reading a thread on here a few months back regarding engine care for a new car. Can't seem to find it out now.

Is there any advice I need to follow in terms of how I should be driving the car for the first however many miles? I'm sure I read something on here about waiting for ...

That is the armrest, is it not?


That is definitely the arm rest.

S_94: the top flips up for storage, and the pad on top extends forward, over the arm rest when you pull it out.

Unless they've changed the design, the top isn't ratchetable for height adjustment like the Golf's.


I’ve got ...

This is really helpful info, thanks both! Will hope for 12 days as well with an extra couple of days thrown in for Easter


I should also mention that my salesman said a lot of cars had been ordered to the UK for March delivery by the main dealers for stock; worries about Brexit made them order ...

Finally got an update today - my car is due in Emden on 13/04. Customer service say once there it can take 15 working days to be loaded onto a ship and then once it’s arrived in the UK it can take 7-10 working days to reach the dealer.

Can anyone who’s received theirs tell me roughly how long it ...

I collected my car 10 days ago. I’ll state from the beginning that I am new to DSG gearboxes (always driven manual cars) and am breaking in the engine, so have avoided full throttle and always ensure the oil temp is warm before even thinking of moderate acceleration.

I’ve been using the normal ‘D ...

I took delivery of my new 2019 GTI+ at 5:00pm today. That was after a few hours of paperwork, trade-in finalisation, other paperwork, etc. I declined their ‘invitation’ to have a series of photos taken for their Facebook account and website, and felt the grand ‘uncovering’ was pointless. After ...

I think it still sounds okay. Yes, perhaps there isn’t the ‘pops & bangs’ of the pre-WLTP model, but it really doesn’t bother me at all. Perhaps I’m getting old :D

I’m collecting my 2019 GTI+ tomorrow (with GPF - so I’ll ...
