My new GT TDI 150
« on: 17 September 2010, 08:47 »


I Absolutly love this car its an 03 reg done 97k miles and drives like new, I previously had a leon cupra R and I was never away from the petrol station I do around 300 miles per week.

Has anybody had any problems with the heater buttons sticking?Huh?? this morning when it was cold all my climate control buttons were sticking and hard to press is this common?

Im new to the forum and this is my first post sorry in advance if this is in the wrong section

Very very nice mate, best colour  :cool:    Maybe try taking out the climate control unit and giving it a good clean and spraying some wd40 around the buttons, will work itself in there and probaly free everything up abit.  :smiley:

Yea tell me bout it, Shows dust very bad, but does look the nuts when clean, Not so many mk4's with indigo blue which is nice. Not like silver which are 2 to a penny.
