LOL - that's like asking someone if they would like to swap their Lambo for a Fiat!

I think the places to look are pretty obvious.

a set of ropey used wingbacks will set you back appx £2k upwards, then a retrim on top of that. Be prepared to dig deep into your wallet.

Apologies I'm not to familiar with the 7 speed dry clutch box but I know on the 6 speed wet clutch box, the clutch clamping force can be adjusted. For reference a set of clutch packs for the 6 speed box is circa £1,100 plus fitting. It's also worth checking that the DSG is running the latest firmwa...

Few pics of my 2011 R DSG stage 2+ Rtech tuned with 380bhp and 436lbft on Airlift 3P Performance struts. TTRS Brembo 4 Pot brakes, BCS Powervalve exhaust system. https://i.ibb.co/GPH23dv/ROC1.jpg https://i.ibb.co/rmV6WLZ/ROC2.jpg https://i.ibb.co/KGmtZMs/ROC5.jpg https://i.ibb.co/Kyzx9gX/ROC4.jpg

My 2011 R is lowered on H&R 35mm springs and I am running 12mm H&R spacers on the front, and 15mm H&R spacers on the back. It now has the PERFECT stance. The fronts tuck EVER SO SLIGHTLY, and the rears are perfectly flush. I wouldnt go anymore on front or rear.

i have 15mm rear and 12mm front on my R with 35mm H&R lowering springs. Fronts tucker EVER so slightly. No rubbing issues at all.

DIY Rear seat delete


Sir Henry Parkes

I have always kept a close eye on my oil temps on my R. Even on hot days like we have been seeing recently I rarely see the oil temp go above 90-92 degs. Winter time I am lucky to see it go above 85 degs and that is giving it a hard long drive!

I don't care what people say (mainly uneducated ones) but PS4S are the KING of tyres.

for the price of oil and a filter, do it yourself every 5k or 6 months. You can pick up 5L of Castrol Edge 5W30 for £40-£45, and a genuine filter for £13. Takes 30 mins to do the job too.

I don't think there are any really big facebook groups. We have a page but it's quiet. Most of them seem to be. The majority of posts get answered on here. As with all of these kinds of sites, anything highly technical or specialised relies on someone else on the site knowing how to do it already. ...

the good thing with the Scirocco facebook page is you get answers/replies on there, unlike here.

mate - seeing at this forum is like a ghost town its best you join the scirocco facebook page for answers to stuff like this. Plenty of active members on there and you will get a quick answer.

Hi mate - resonator delete is only a small section of exhaust and a doddle to fit. As for warrenty voiding, it depends how arsy the dealer can be. If you are interested in a resonator delete I know a company (Progressive Parts) who do them (very high quality) and if theres enough interest they will ...

So after collecting the car on Saturday and having the weekend to get to know it all i can say is just WOW! I just love the smooth power delivery. For some unknown reason i have come across multiple Golf R this weekend (Coincidence) and i must say the Rocco is the must best looking one! I can feel ...

Hi guys, I have a 2011 Scirocco R, wanting to fit rear spacers. Not sure if to get 12mm or 15mm. I currently have stock ride height with 19" Telladega wheels, but do plan on getting some H&R 35mm lowering springs at some stage. I rarely carry rear passengers and nor do I carry heavy loads i...

The DCC problem isn't a major thing, it just would have been nice to have all the 'luxury' functions working properly, especially as this is my first proper car! Also concerns me in terms of future saleability. I'm still struggling to understand the DCC setup so knowledge welcome . I am wondering i...
