hi,
my 2015MY 7R blew through its second water/coolant pump recently but after replacing that the shop noticed a leak from a coolant pump flange Golf MK7/Rcoolant flange - part no 5Q0122291BF (pic below).
i can’t seem to find any listings for it, new or used. did VW update the part number and...
First, have to thank you golfdave, literally all the information I needed to decide between the CTS Street Shield and the OEM+ option for my 2015 Golf 7R.
Question (to anyone with any leads), anyone know UK stores where the skid plate and the other listed accessories can be bought? No eBay...
Hi, is this used to configure the helix subwoofer as well? What does "The Demo switch will allow you to demonstrate the Volkswagen Soundbox & DSP unit by allowing users to turn the system on or off on demand." actually mean? :)
This is actually a way for me to also document what i find so i can come back to it every now and then. So please feel free to poke holes at whatever I find :)
After some digging, a huge advantage the Burger Tuning JB1 (most common Piggyback/Tune box I found) has over ECU tunes is that it can be...
Well at least one of them can be prevented or at least delayed. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the Haldex service then brace for the water pump which seemingly will inevitably fail. Pay to play :) Thanks!
I'll definitely consider this along with the Unitronic Stage 1 + TCU tune. I'll do some research then maybe share that here for anyone that might be interested.
Appreciate the quick response! And I'm realizing if you can run a stock intercooler in your climate (Nairobi is generally a lot cooler than Melbourne), then I probably shouldn't worry about it. I'm curious what informed VW's decision to detune though.
And totally unrelated, when did your water...
Hi, curious to know if anyone has done any tunes to their R in these "hot climate markets" (they come slightly detuned on the power front), and if they've faced any challenges after turning the engine up (the kind VW were afraid we might face that led them to detune? That kind). Thanks!

I'm waiting for it to ship to me as we speak, I'll be back here once I have tinkered with the system.
I am going on previous experience (Merc C-Class 2015) where the infotainment unit though standard, had the option for setting language as English, but would only change the radio text to English...
Hello people! My first post (after weeks of taking in all the Mk7 knowledge y'all have amassed here!) and it's a question about the 8" Discover Pro that comes with the car.
So I'm about to pick up a 2015 R from Japan (easier to import into my country), but having driven other JDMarket cars, I'm...
