Scirocco Central

Hi 2207,
I tried that. I have a GB40 1000A NOCO Jump Starter kit, but it made no difference. I'm not convinced it's the battery. Anyway, it's with VW now and in the workshop, so will be interesting to see what's up. I'll let you know.

Cheers J

I don't think it would have anything to do with the lights, as they would have switched themselves off automatically when you turned off the engine - assuming that you didn't sit there for 10 minutes with the ignition on unnecessarily or the engine running. I'm sure it'll be an easy fix, but perhap...

I have the exact same issue since yesterday. Was listening to music for a few hours while changing the tail lights and suddenly while playing around with the navi audio settings the sound started to crack and fade away. Battery is 2 weeks old, when I try to start now only thing I hear is a really f...

Yesterday evening I went for a drive with a mate. We stopped for about ten minutes to watch distant firework display whilst sitting in the Rocco. During that time I forgot to turn my lights off. When I went to start the ignition there was a clicking sound and on the MFD a error message was displayed...

Thanks 2207 and davidscirocco, for your reply’s. David the indicator lights don’t turn on with the headlights. I’ve tried everything and they only indicate :( As 2207 said the DRLs are built into the headlights. It would have been great if VW allowed for the indicator lights to have a multifunction ...

Thank you mikejtaylor96 and Deagol for your replies. I cannot find any way to switch them on as DRLs. Although they look clear from the front, they illuminate orange when they indicate. However, I cannot find any way at all to get them to illuminate as DRLs. Perhaps they are only indicators. Any fur...

Hi, I have a Scirocco R which I have had 10 months now from brand new. My car was one of the last Sciroccos built. I am extremly happy with it. I do have question that I hope somebody might be able to help me with. The DRL on my Scirocco are within the headlights and not on the bumper. Those lights ...

Hi Paradox1, I agree with you totally about driving it and enjoying it. It’s a lovely car and spends too much time stored away. I’ve started using it more. Interesting you should mention the £3 car wash. I’ve been using the jet wash at my local Fuel garage and it only cost £2 for the basic one. I ne...

Hi Kev, Thanks for your reply. It’s reassuring to hear from your experience that you’ve not garaged a car for that long a period with no rust or paint damage. You’re right cars these days are far more weather resistant. Like you whenever I go to a supermarket or anywhere where I need to use a car pa...

Thanks Roy_01 for your reply. You made some interesting points. Here in the U.K. parking spaces are very narrow and that’s something I’m always careful about when parking my car. Fortunately the private residents car park have wide parking bays and there is no risk of someone opening their door and ...

I've had my Scirocco R about 8 months now from brand new and am loving it. My car is a big investment for me and for this reason I decided to rent a garage to keep it in. Although I have a private residents car park, I have no garage of my own. Anyway, I am now seriously considering giving up the ga...

Hey guys, Not been on here for a while. Just wanted to say a really big thank you for your feedback and photos. You've been very helpful. I've decided to put this on the back burner for a while or at least until my VW Warranty expires. The reason for this is that recently I had to speak with the aft...

Hi Paradox1, Thanks for your reply, that's very helpful. I did see JJC on ebay and wondered which ones. So reading your reply is very helpful. I've seen that DPM do H&R's 15mm hubcentric, they are £100 a pair. Alternatively they also sell FKs for £65 a pair: FK 15MM (30MM PER AXLE) HUBCENTRIC WH...

Hi all, I’m going to be getting my new Scirocco R lowered soon with H & R 35mm springs as recommended and tried and tested in a friends Scirocco. I would like to add some Spacers and wondered what people would recommend? I’ve been recommended to get Hubcentric spacers, but can anyone tell me a b...

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your reply. I’m sending you a PM. If you’re still unable to reply via PM I would message the site administrator.

Cheers for the replies and recommendations. I’ve purchased some Gummi Pfledge online.

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a product for blackening the rubber seals around the car windows??

Thank you
