Golf mk7 / CSS in 'Y' car park LGW
« Last post by Ooosh on 23 March 2026, 15:35 »
Hello to the owner of the lovely looking white CSS (with personal plate) at LGW.

Thats 2 out of the 150 UK cars sharing the same work car park. Slim odds on that!

Golf mk7 / Re: De-condensating headlights

Surely the LED cornering lights don't have fans? Don't think there's enough space in there.

Modern ones have the fan built in and they are the same size as standard Bulbs. I have been using the MAXGTRS ones for a few years, just upgraded to the new ones below with 3 sided LED's and they made a huge difference..

Golf mk7 / Re: What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

Changed back to my BBS's, put in my spinning centre caps and gave it well overdue wash.

Bar the number plate it's not an edited photo, I tried Koch Chemie WetGloss for a second time now that by Gyeon Cure has worn off and found it a lot better and glossier.



Is that standard ride height? Can you recall the wheel spec? Looks awesome

Soundaktor was rattling the dash like mad so wedged some foam under the bracket with the help of this forum and Youtube.
Just about managed to wrangle the bolt without removing wipers - fiddly! The bolt was also finger loose at first which explains the rattle  :shocked:

Controversially I like it on as with the music turned up to 11 at least I get some feedback.



Any links to the guides mentioned?

Golf mk7 / Re: Revs sitting at 1200rpm

Hi. Ive just done a battery test and the SOH is 6% this might be the issue as if I turn my heaters off and start the car the idle is perfect soon as I turn them on it raises the rpm to 1200. I'm thinking it could be making the alternator work harder maybe.

The TCR and the ED40 have the R engine, and the only difference is software.

As what SRGTD says, mine does exactly the same every few months. I followed his advice a year or so ago, problem solved.
