Must do this myself, had a good run there the other day and was back at 38mpg the day after I can barely get 32mpg. Strange though as I typically have nice long runs 40+ miles, although maybe not that the right speed to let it regen.

Golf mk8 / Re: Golf GTI Mk8 2024 Spacesaver
« Last post by davo245 on Today at 09:20 »Very confused! Looking to buy an original VW space saver but lots of different product numbers. My vehicle has 19inch Adelaide wheels. Will 1K0601027B which is an 18inch wheel do the job? If not what product should I be seeking? Thanks
Not sure on part numbers but the price of new wheel and tools from vw is over 400!
I took all my tools and spare wheel from my mk7.5 GTI performance I had from new(19" Brescia's) and put in my mk8 (19s adelaides) all fits perfectly in boot and on car if that helps you out.

Still makes me smile though.

Thank you for your support and advice. It was invaluable.
I took it along a dual carriageway and drove at 70 mph and then dropped to 30 mph without braking. I did this about ten times! It worked. Now back to normal.
Good to hear it worked!

Golf mk7 / Re: What have you done to your MK 7 today ?
« Last post by Rudedog on 23 April 2024, 21:14 »Or as James May came to the conclusion in 'Cars of the People' - the VW Golf was the "perfect people's car" - and all the car you could ever need.
Even Ben Collins (the Stig) said that out of all of the GTI's he would have either a Mk5 or a Mk7.
