Scirocco Central

Hi mate,

Yep, still interested... Just having a minor cash flow crisis ATM which means I probably won't be able to get my wheels refurbed.

What wheels are you on?

I don't suppose you've changed your rear brakes have you... I dropped a b*ll*ck and removed the 16 splined bolt holding the caliper onto the knuckle, refitted it and discovered it was a stretch bolt... only to have it fall out some time later.

Where are you based?

@candy I'm in Oxfordshire.

My DCC settings are 'HARD' and 'SLIDING DOWN CONCRETE STAIRS ON A TEA TRAY'...

Hello All, I've had my Rocco for nearly 4 years now, and love it. However, whilst the 19" Lugano alloys look great, I do rather feel that the chassis hasn't been tuned properly to this set up. Even in DCC 'Comfort' mode it's teeth-chatteringly crashy. Add to this the fact that at the first sign...
