Re: Tall drivers

I'm a mere 6 ft1" and have no issues whatsoever. At 6ft4" you should probably consider a berlingo!!

Re: Help - R vs GT 2.0TSi?

I love my GT but there are piles of them everywhere now. If I could afford to swap mine for the R I would do in a second.

Re: Your worst scirocco moment?

After a week of ownership I reversed mine into the garage (which is at a funny angle due to it being a shared drive), rubbed the front driver's side against the downpipe on the house causing 5 or 6 light scratches on the front bumper. As you can imagine the air was blue, I was gutted. Sadly the scra...

Re: What don't you like about your Rocco?

I don't like the blue display of the climate control. They could have made it match the driver info system display in white. I LOVE everything else about it though.

Re: The rain could not spoil my day today....

Gave the car a quick wash this morning before taking her out again, took a few more pics and posted on the Facebook group, didn't have to reduce the file sizes that way. (Still wearing that big cheesy grin!)

Re: Dynaudio...Worth it...??

I have the Dynaudio and it's fantastic with CDs and higher bitrate (256kbps+) mp3s via the ipod. I have also had a tinker with the EQ settings and no doubt that after about 10 hours use the system is still 'running in' but for me it's definately worth the extra few quid.

Re: Daylight Running Lights. ARGGHHH......

HA! Ahem.

Great post QR - Quite literally a 3 second job and now my lights function in the way they should.

0 = off!
Auto = auto
Sidelights and headlights do just that.

Perfect! :lol:

The instructions to turn mine off were in the manual. :yes: Well if you were successful by that method then you are the only person on this forum who has found those instructions to work so far. That method doesn't work on UK models though I did read someone's suggestion that it works on LHD's. It ...
