First drive of my spanking new GTI Mk6

Good stuff! Atleast we know whats caused it now. Usually settles down over a few weeks as the rest of the car adjusts to the slight flex. i would get the lube from VW and apply it as and when its required

in the arse if you're getting it from the stealers.

HM, give www.PowerBulbs.com an e-mail.  They also give forum members a discount, and they really are one of those rare things - a genuinely excellent company.

TT, I ordered my bulbs from them but am still waiting for the shipment. Apparently the Dutch postal service returned the shipment for no rhyme or reason... so hopefully I will be getting them soon...

Hmmmm . . . did your Dutch postie start his shift after a session in Willy Wortels (or whatever its name is)? 

NL is in the EU, so there are no trade restrictions between member states - unless someone thought that 'PowerBulbs' is sommat that is going to annhialate the Dutch tulip industry! 

Or maybe it is because we are having a few postal strikes here in Blighty.

For information, I ordered the following:

Philips X-Treme Power H7 - GBP27.85 x 1 and got
FREE Philips Blue Vision W5W

Yup, they seem perfect.

Yo Ho,

I drove my car today and realised the rubbery noises have reduced somewhat. Or I am getting deaf... I guess the VW lube works!!! I put it on Sunday and presto Tuesday the noise is almost gone...

Yaaaay, the car is finally 'quiet'!

Sorry for the Dutch .......

Kan jij mij vertellen wat jij aan het kraken van de rubbers/deur aan de bestuurders kant hebt gedaan??

Ik las dat jij ook een krakend geluid hoorde......

I used the VW Rubber Care Stick 75 ml Part No: 00V 096 310 A

I applied evenly on the rubber seals and waited 2-3 days before it was effective. Now the rubbery sounds are somewhat muted. Its quite quiet now.

Is that for free by the dealer?
