Golf mk7 / Re: New MK7 owner - Oil leak, help?

The sump is plastic, it may be worth checking that it isn't cracked. It could also just be spillage from where it has been topped up.

Golf mk8 / Re: CS rear hatch spoiler

I may have answered my own question, the smaller section does look to be slightly different so it'll be whole whole thing by the looks of it

Golf mk8 / CS rear hatch spoiler
« Last post by flipflops on 15 April 2026, 17:24 »
If I wanted to fit one to a normal GTI, is it the whole spoiler I need or is it an extension fitted onto the back of the standard GTI spoiler?

Also does anyone know the best place to pick one up?

TIA

Some random EU regulation. A bit like straight bananas.

I preferred everyday use.
That's why I didn't think about PP.

I’d have been the same to be honest.
The red tipped wheels and black exhaust are unique to the Ed50 and the suspension should be a tad more useable for standard (quick) road car use so I’d have stuck with a regular non PP version.

I haven't but, cars like these are going to get old and disappear soon so I'd say if you can, do it. Exciting new cars seem few and far between and also very expensive. Even if you enjoyed it for a year and then moved it on at least you'd experienced it.


Precisely that ^^^^  :cool: :afro:

Golf mk8 / Drivers seat
« Last post by jc_tattooer_ on 15 April 2026, 17:08 »
Had my 8.5 GTi a good few weeks now, and I am constantly adjusting the drivers seat. I feel like every time I get in I’m further away fro the wheel, so I feel like I’m forever adjusting and it’s not comfortable at all.
Spoke to to dealer today, they can’t help me at all until August. 4 months!!!! But, it was almost like they knew it was an issue.

I’ve since found a bit on FB about people asking the same thing, anyone here at that issue?

Any regrets not specifying the Performance Pack?

Congratulations Miromen, your car looks fantastic! How are you finding the drive in comparison to your previous golf?

I have only driven a few kilometers so I don't want to rate it yet.
However, I didn't expect such good comfort/smoothness from the chassis. It's no worse than the standard pre-facelift GTI on 18"

Golf mk8 / Audio Question
« Last post by K9Pyro on 15 April 2026, 15:54 »
Hi,
Last week I put up a post about my boot sub, this one;

https://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=291567.0

I didn’t get any answers so thought I’d add it here to catch any owners who can help.

Best I can tell, the sub I have is that same one in all other VAG group cars, it doesn’t seem to be a HK one. Is that correct? Doesn’t the HK upgrade get you a upgraded sub?

Can anyone with a 2024/24 Golf GTI with the HK upgrade have a look at what they have please?

Thanks all  :smiley:
