Re: 2010 Cruise Control

hey guys, I've been following this thread with interest. I finally got the bits delivered to the dealers this afternoon and took it to a place to help with fitting. When we assembled the whole lot back together, my horn stopped working and I was getting a warning light on the dash that looked like a...

Re: Tips

I left mine over Christmas for about a month in all the really cold weather. Like others have said, it didn't bat an eyelid when I started it again. Just to be cautious though, I left mine parked on a hill so I left it in gear. I'd also take it easy both accelerating and braking for the first few mi...

Re: how much mpg you get?

My economy seems to change dramatically depending on how warm it is! I've got a Revo mapped Tdi 140 and in the really cold (-12d) weather we've had recently, on my drive to work of 35 miles, I averaged only 52mpg. Rewind to last summer however, and most mornings I got a least 67mpg. The highest I've...

Re: Alloy Wheel Corrosion

Someone else I know had this issue with the wheels on theirs. They just took it to the dealer and all affected wheels were replaced under warranty.

Re: Retrofitted Cruise Control post week 45 (2010) cars only

Hey guys, I've still been following this thread with interest as I'm still waiting for it to be fitted. It's good news that it can be done now but are they able to do it in the dealerships yet? Sorry to go on, but if you're as technically oblivious as myself when you come to these sort of things, yo...

I'm certainly itching to get mine. I do a lot of motorway driving and my heel starts to ache after a while from the position my foots' on the accelerator.

You can usually get dealers to throw the basic ones in when you pick it up.

Re: Some incapable driver...

That's terrible news. You'll probably have to have it sorted at a VW approved bodyshop in order for your warranty to be honored. It's also worth reporting to the police as well, even if it's just for your records.

Yeah, make sure you can get it in writing. Mine's a week 46 MY2010 car and I've been waiting for the cruise control retrofit kit since November!

Re: 20% VAT increase

It might be relevant to know that the new VAT rate only applies from the 4th of January so if you can angle to pick it up at the start of the month you'd be ok. However, as trix said, VAT is paid at the rate on the day of collection. Having said that, you could ask your dealer if you can pay for it ...

Re: Apple Iphone Software Update- iOS 4.0

Well I appear to be suffering from the signal drop problem. If Apple don't come up with a solution soon I'll be taking it back and exchanging it.

But we probably steer this thread back to the original topic guys. Chat non-specific to the Roc should live in the General forum :)

Re: Bodum Travel Mug

Hi, My Bodum travel mug has arrived and I can confirm it fits well. Its a little on the expensive side in comparison to some, but it does not leak even if you turn it upside down and shake. fyi the base diameter is 7cm. Andy Thanks for following up now. It's quite sad how excited I am about the pro...

Re: Does iPhone 4 work hands-free with Roc Bluetooth?

Has anyone got the new iPhone 4 yet? No, because the iPhone 4 launch date is June 24th. This, but the answer will be no anyway. The Roc doesn't us the normal bluetooth protocol. As trix has mentioned, it uses a bastardised interface whereby it effectively 'hijacks' the sim card in the phone and thi...

Re: Cruise control retrofit

shows how much the dealers know sadly S Have to say, customer service aren't much better either. My conversation was something like: Them: "Yeah, there was a change in November last year and it affected the cruise control kit. This is what the issue is." Me: "With due respect, thanks...
