Golf mk8 / Re: MK8 Clubsport Akrapovic Exhaust - Search is on!

€1,600 seems like a _steal_.

The "GTI Parking" sign in the background would maybe point to it being an enthusiast that just happens to have one available. Hmm, how to deliver it...

Thanks - will not post - collection only. Just need a man and a van who would be willing to collect!

Cheers

Golf mk8 / Re: Have you ordered an 8.5 ?

I got confirmation from the dealer today that my car has made the boat as of yesterday and is meandering its way across the water to Dublin as we speak. Nearly there....

I enquired a bit about this. Adding the performance pack forces Estoril wheels which I didn't want, so I left it out and briefly looked into retrofitting it.

The part number is 5H6253181BD if you want to keep your eyes peeled for a second hand one.

The VW specialist I checked weren't sure if they could even order it (perhaps can only be ordered if the car was specced with it) and the price was eye watering at €4,200 plus VAT.

Golf mk8 / Re: Bluetooth & WIFI connectivity for CarPlay

Don't connect your phone to the car wifi...

Just use bluetooth

Yes but issue is as stated originally, do that and it won’t connect to Car Play. This is the problem.

You don't need to connect your phone to the car's wifi for carplay to work. You connect it to bluetooth and the head unit connects the phone via wifi during the bluetooth handshake - which is different to connecting it to the car wifi.

Thanks, definitely have a good selection of parts. Unfortunately, they don’t ship to the UK according to their eBay page.

Totally forgot about the 8.5 diffuser, looks way nicer. I would love to source one, hopefully fitment is the same, being just a facelift.

Fitment will be the same. I think someone posted photos on here actually of their MK8 with an 8.5 diffuser fitted.
