Scirocco Central

Thanks for the tip adamgt80, less is more.

Thanks for the reply Cuprabob.
I have Autoglym leather cleaner so will give it a go this weekend.
Should I apply leather balm afterwards or just use the cleaner?

Hoping someone can help.
My car has covered 50k miles and I have recently noticed that the leather on my steering wheel feels sticky.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so what is the best way to clean it?

Thought I'd share an update of my dilemma...... I covered my car with a plastic sheet overnight and managed to keep the interior dry. I spoke to my local VW dealer this morning who informed me there is no manual override to close the sunroof! They managed to squeeze me in today to diagnose the fault...

Any help would be greatly appreciated guys!!! I parked my car on my driveway and came out of the house a couple of hours later to find my windows and sunroof open. I closed the windows and attempted to close the sunroof with no success..... I press the button inside the car to close it but it won't ...

Factory resst may be worth ago I tried a factory reset as you suggested but alas no success. I received a GPS antenna which I purchased from eBay and fitted it this evening. I powered the unit up on my driveway and had 5/12 satellites with 3D fix, hopefully this will increase once I'm out on the op...

Thanks for your help risingblue78.

I'll purchase one today and have a look at the video too.

Hi Guys I'm hoping someone will be able to help me with this problem. Nav was working fine yesterday, however, I tried to use it today and my current position is not showing correctly so I can no longer use the nav......... I've checked the GPS viewer which shows the following; Satellites: 0/9 Mode:...

Hi Wolfas Here's the part number for the 'ESP off button' : 5K0927117 Not sure where you're based but I done a quick Google search and found this from China; http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/1pcs-OEM-ESP-SWITCH-BUTTON-for-VW-GOLF-MK6-JETTA-MK5-5k0927117-New-/171118555337" onclick="window.open(this....

Hi It's easy to fit and takes a matter of minutes. You need to remove the holding down bolt at the rear of the inner rail, can't remember off the top of my head the size but know it's a spline bit. Once you've removed the bolt slide the new guide block onto the rail (make sure you fit the correct on...

Hi liri9 I had the same issue with my passenger seat but didn't find any parts, it was like that when I bought it from the dealership. If you push your driver's seat fully back then pull the handle on the top of the seat and slide it all the way forward you will see the part on the inner rail..... T...

I agree with x.laura.x, Shell all the way! I can't really comment on Tesco's fuel as I've never used it....... I always fill mine with V-Power and have done since ownership, I also used it in my GTI. I have a Shell driver's club card which enables you to collect points and receive money off vouchers...

Not sure if anyone can beat this offer but I have recently purchased 5 litres of oil from mytyres for £31.20 including delivery. Best price I could find and should last me a good few months. 1 litre can is £8 and 20 litre can £118.30 Here's a link to the items; http://www.mytyres.co.uk/cgi-bin/oshop...

Hi Bobby
I have handsfree on my R but it's controlled through the head unit.
I guess yours was not factory fitted, hence the need for the unit on the air vent.
Do you know which head unit model is fitted in your car?

Unfortunately you have different symptoms to what I had, my seat would slide forward but would not lock back into place. If you adjust your seat height to it's highest position you should see 3 metal pins which should be lifted when you pull the easy entry handle, if they're not moving, lightly grea...

Hi SPEEDDRV.
Can you move your seat forwards/ back if you pull the adjustment handle underneath the seat?

Hi bobbyjoe and welcome to the forum! I had a very similar problem with my DSG Scirocco R a few months after I purchased the car. I took it to my local VW garage where one of their technicians took it for a test drive and confirmed there was a fault. They said they would need to do further investiga...

Hi dstill, The mystery part that the garage kindly discovered for you is off a guide block part number 8T0-898-025. Have you noticed that one of your seats no longer returns to it's last position when you let someone in the back of the car? If so you can easily replace the said item and fix your sea...

After some investigation to figure out how the easy entry seat works I have fixed my seat for the pricely sum of £14.58! I managed to track down VW diagrams online from the following website; http://www.partscats.info" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; which helped in recognisi...

I have same issue with passenger seat but have the approved 12 month warranty remaining would this cover this fault thanks. I have a VW extended warranty and took my car to the dealers hoping they would fix this fault FOC. I was told by the dealer there is a TPI (2021441/4) which says it could be o...
