    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Apparently the first. I don't have to look envious at all the Goddamned Golf Rs around here. They are like Camrys lol. That said I wouldn't take an R anyway. I put 85k km on my GTI in 2.5 years. Creature comforts matter. No sunroof or console armrest/adjustability in the R meant it was a no go...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    It is the Dark Iron Blue indeed. When I first saw it before any dealer prep, with the white protection sheets on it, in full sun... It looked grey to me too! Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Traded it! On a Mk7.5 2018!!!! Went from white to the new blue, and from leather to cloth. Apparently a "launch" car, one of 4 in the province. Never saw the showroom. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    '15 GTI Black Screen / SD Card Issues

    Hi, Canadian MK VII GTI w/PP. Recently on start, the infotainment screen is black, and I have to press the power to get it to come on - and it goes through a reboot cycle to do so. That means no back-up camera on start, which is frustrating. And then, once the cam is on and the...

    WTB (and Advice) - Ski Rack

    I have the VW OEM bars for my GTI. I'm looking to purchase (preferably used) a ski rack for the rails. Ideally, I'm looking at a Yakima Fatcat 6 followed by the Thule Snowpack 6. Are there any other recommendations? Also - anyone selling either of these? I've tried Amazon, but none of the...

    Deleting a phone quick dial

    Hi everyone, How would one go about deleting one of the quick dials (the four buttons when you hit "Phone") that you have stored? Gotta toast the ex-gf.

    Is it useless?

    A friend of mine sent me this photo, which completely proves the statement above. Look closely at the buttress on the right, about half way down. Yup. That's an "N" sticker on a matte grey Aventador. It looks, at least, like it's facing the right way... No worries, considering that every...

    For Car Care OCD folks - between hand washes?

    Ok all you car care OCD people. I was originally going to post this for 35+ folks that have to juggle their time, but every one has choices to make with their time... so here's my poll. I just want to know how long you go between hand washes, and what you do if you haven't the time to hand...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    I had to drive to Penticton BC for a conference. Took the Coquihalla on the way up (woohoo, updated the speed limit to 120km/h / 75mph - fastest I've seen in all my years in Canada...) but took the Crowsnest Highway back; that was always my intent, but the Coquihalla was apparently closed for a...

    Ringtone

    I've seen a couple of folks mention that their phones ringtone is what rings through the infotainment system when the phone rings. I would like to set that up -had it on myfordtouch and it was great. Any ideas how to set it?

    Vancouver - soon to be Mk 7 GTI owner

    44. And my girlfriend can't wait to drive it - she lives in another province, and it's only a matter of time... Per your pic request.... If you are around Production Way, you are near my place. I live across the street from Burnaby Mountain Golf Course. And no, I find I use the Sport...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Finally managed to get about 32mpg out of her... all highway. Also bought a pair of bike racks for my carrier bars - $75 from e-bay!

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Got to take her on a 400km road trip to the US for a golf tournament. I was pleased to be taking an older gent that is a member of a trade association with me, as he is our side's ringer- he's 80 and regularly shoots UNDER his age. He also drives an '88 Prelude (and I had a 2000) so he likes...

    Any dog owners?

    Here's a better look. I've taken the headrests out to give it a real test, and will put slits in the blanket to allow them to pass back into their slots this weekend. Looks much better with a model in the car too. :D This thing does the job with aplomb. Sand and water shake right off.

    Any dog owners?

    Well I finally got it. The owner of the company called me back on Saturday (finally) and agreed to meet with me. She charges $70 for all her products, tax in, but of course the stores charge $85 plus tax so patience was worth it. The fit is, if anything, too large - but that work in our...

    Goodies mailed to you from VW?

    No, I'm not talking about the free travel mug (or t-shirt, or ball cap, or whatever) that you got when you picked the car up from the dealer. :) I was surprised when I got home one day and my postie had dropped a package from VW Canada on my mat. When I opened it, I found this lovely box...

    Vancouver / online - Bike Racks

    Hi all, Where is the best place to go, for both selection and pricing, for bike carriers? i have the oem bars and need to get at least 2 if not 3 bike carriers. Not picky on brand but would prefer ones where the front wheels stay on. I'm looking for stores in the lower mainland, or online...
