First ever VW...
« on: 24 January 2014, 21:49 »
Hello.

Names John. Just bought myself this today after my year with a Volvo C70 T5 ended when the gear box died on me.



05 Tornado Red GTI DSG, only done 49k since new. As far as I can tell there are no problems with it, DSG box has just had the oil and filters changed. The only thing I did notice was the rear boot badge had that "white worm" thing, can someone actually explain to me what it is?

Not really gonna do much to it for the time being to be honest. I am thinking of getting the cruise control stalk fitted, I've seen you need it for the APR remap, or can they be selected without that?

Eventually I'm gonna paint all skirts and bumpers, don't like the black plastic look, change the badges on the front and back, probably to match, and solve the white worm thing.

One thing I do want to ask, I've heard that theres an update for the DSG software, do I just take it to my local VW dealer? And how much is it normally to have it updated?

Look forward to having a nosey round the forum.
