    2016 Golf R 6-sp vs 2019 Golf R DSG?

    I might be able to trade in my 2016 Golf R 6-sp manual for a 2019 Golf R DSG, while keeping the same monthly payments. I know the DSG is faster, but it didn’t exactly wow me when I test drove it, and it lugged the engine in D just like my wife’s 2018 GSW DSG does. Any pros to a 2019 vs a 2016...

    Car: 2016 Golf R, 6-speed manual, stock Launching the car on snow with the ESC / TC turned off (holding the button down for 3 sec), I notice that the rear wheel(s) are slowed down momentarily.

    MK7 Golf - windshield wipers hitting A-pillar issue

    For my 2016 Golf TSI, the windshield wipers sit higher than normal in the off position, and hit the A-pillar when wiping. Normally the wipers are hidden below the bottom of the windshield, but in my case they sit quite high. Is there a way of resetting their normal / off position, or do I need...

The sales person confirmed this as well. The GTI will only be available in Base or Autobahn for the 3-door, and Autobahn only for the...

    Manual transmission adjustment - what size locking pin?

    Today I installed an Audi S3 short shifter and ECS shifter cable bushings in my 2015 MK7 GTI 6-speed manual. Luckily I had a locking pin from an APR shifter cable bracket (which I did NOT install because it looked like it'd be a PITA to remove the turbo ducts in order to access it). This locking...
