Hope you weren't using it...
You can use Amazon Echo Auto Mode on your phone instead if you desire.

Golf mk8 / Re: Queenstown and DCC
« Last post by Exonian on 08 July 2025, 18:09 »You can order a Clubsport with Queenies and no DCC however a regular GTI 265 has Queenstown and DCC as a package in the UK. Whether it’s down to the weight of the wheels or some other marketing reason I have no idea.
Dogman12 has a point though, it’s not impossible that a set could have been retrofitted to a GTI minus DCC.

Stick your budget up preferences and you may coax owners out of the woodwork

Golf mk8 / Re: Queenstown and DCC
« Last post by Dogman12 on 08 July 2025, 11:59 »Looking for a used mk8.5 GTI for the misses. Is it safe to assume cars optioned with Queenstown alloys have DCC aswell? It seems on the configurator you are forced to select DCC with the Queenstown alloys. Is that a new change or always been that way? I have searched the forum but not getting any hits, I'm probably being stupid! I called up a VW dealership earlier and asked someone in sales, it almost blew their mind
Any info on the subject would be appreciated!
it's better to check the equipment through VIN number. Someone could've bought wheels separately.

Hey. Yes, selecting Queenstown wheels has always required DCC as a mandatory option. I also believe if you select another style of 19" wheel, it requires the sports suspension for 19" wheels option. Not sure why there are different requirements for different styles of 19" wheel, but that is what VW chose to do!!
