Re: poor build quality rocco

Had mine since april 2010 and can't fault it at all.. My only complaints are the crappy rod to prop up the bonnet and that people keep driving into it when I park (although I can't blame vw for that lol)

Re: Changing headlamp bulbs

It's easy to take out...you just twist the holder and it pops out, pop in the new bulb then the trouble starts. Unless you've got Jeremy Beadle hands it's a bit of a pig to line up then screw back into place. Took me lots of cursing and scratched up hands! :grumpy: Yeah, I second that. easy enough ...

Re: Refurbishment of alloys wheels

Waiting to get my car back so I can get mine done... I need to get a couple done so, went through the same thought, well I want them to match so I may as well get them all done. If I'm getting them all done may as well be darker.. Have seen things online about the wheel specialist but didn't know an...

Re: Best diesel engine for roc for power v weight ration

I gotta say 170 too.... But to be fair I didn't get to try the 140 as I was deciding between the 2.0 tsi and the 170 tdi.... Have tried the 140cr tdi in a golf though... Like it has been said before if you will use the extra power then its definitely the way to go... Only complaint I have with mine ...

Re: 170BHP VS 210BHP

I test drove the 170 TDI and the 210 Petrol for a full day each, before deciding on the diesel. I didn't notice much difference in either model apart from at the top end (over 70mph), where it felt like the petrol could accelerate a bit faster than the diesel, apart from that though, couldn't tell ...

Re: Dynaudio - Sunday Times Review

i'd still be interested to hear it.. I had specced it on my car but then took it off.. I'm usually quite picky normally and have spent a fair bit on the hifi setup in my house. however my philosophy with these things is despite what anyone else says only pay for what you can see or hear..

Re: Which diesel? 140 or 170?

Not sure... It definitely used to be the case as I collected mine at the end of april and have both the gear change indicator (which I thought would be standard on all GT spec rocs) and the chrome tailpipes... but I think the 140 still doesn't come with the chrome... I only test drove the 2.0 tsi an...

Re: 170 tdi flat spot in 3rd at 4000rpm?

I'd say it wasn't the fuel. I've noticed too (particularly when overtaking), and I've only put vpower or BP (not ultimate as for the price it did feel any different).
It'll be great if revo can amend this as I'm sure I'll be getting mine revo'd next year :)

Re: Too big

I agree with trix panno roof look best on a candy roc.(but it does work with other colours) As for parking I'm finding it ridiculously easy to park (aside from finding a space that least likely to have someone open their door into it). You have same drawback you do with any 3 door car the doors are ...

I don't think it is sumatra as that has more of a brown tinge to it..
