Re: Tigger73's Scirocco R

Haven't done much to it lately so not a whole lot to report. Had it's 2 year service done and first set of tyres changed at 35,000km. Also had the steering wheel control module replaced under warranty as I had intermittent (every months or so) cruise control not activating. Seems to have fixed the i...

I think he's after an aftermarket diffuser not a genione one as the genuine part doesn't fit his new exhaust and ends up a puddle on the ground.

Tigger73's Scirocco R

I also pulled the doors apart again and taped up the door warning light wires with the cloth tape. Then zip tied to keep it from rattling inside the door. Plus installed the chrome trimmed mirror control switch. Took a lot less time second time around to remove the door trims. https://uploads.tapata...

Re: Tigger73's Scirocco R

Picked up the elusive chrome trimmed mirror switch this morning. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171012/0c486fbfa3387c66fd76965341c696f5.jpg It actually isn’t that different from the standard one - except I’ll know it every time I look at it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171012/54a077e3a0bc...

Re: My13.5 R - new purchase

I had a PolarIS+ in my previous VW (Tiguan) and it was a useful bit of kit. Haven't felt the need for it in the Scirocco as I have most of the info I use with the additional pod gauges (but I have a MY16).

Re: My13.5 R - new purchase

Answer is yes you can fit a boost gauge. The facelift MY15+ actually has 3 pods on the dash - oil temp, lap timer and boost. I find the oil temps useful to keep an eye on before giving it a boot, but barely look at my boost gauge to be honest. You can get a mechanical guage for sure but there's a co...

Re: Tigger73's Scirocco R

You should put the footwell LEDs to the same blue as the dash back lighting. Would look much nicer! Agree that blue LEDs would look good especially when driving at night. THe kit came with white LEDs with the option for red footwells which I wasn't keen on. May get a set of blue LED bulbs down the ...
