Running in an engine is a thing of the past. You only need to run in an engine of a lesser quality vehicle. Anyway, I will not have for much more than a year before I upgrade it.

True but ide run mine in all same. Ive heard that only the 1st few miles actually make a difference as the pistons get nice and cosy. + Thats what warrenty is for. If your keeping for 2years like myself you might aswell nail it from day 1

hey Ronnie, arent you supposed to run-in ur new GTI before attempting a speed breaker? I dont think you want your engine to be wrecked when its only 3 days old... ho ho ho

Nope, ALL engines need running in - even VW ones!

Hi, I'm relatively new to the forum, you seem to be very knowledgeable but you also seem to just jump on a thread and shoot people down without any helpful follow up.  If you know so much why not share it rather than just flame every post? 
"Actually all engines should be run it correctly because blah blah blah....." "Actually that oil isn't recommended because of blah blah however Y brand is good because....."

Get my drift? You seem to love a dramatic exclamation mark.

Spot on Gossa, I just got his academic qualifications thrown in my face because he thought XDS was a £700 extra in another post.

Have to say though, you thinking the chassis was different because of some options was priceless

There's Julie back for her typical 'two bobs' worth - Amazing through how you brush past such a glaring error from a so called highly regarded and highly skilled technician as though it was nothing. This is a prime example of the wanky clique in force again. I think your having a bad hair day Julie, thats it, isnt it ?

Me too to be honest, but I had to filter out the errors first

The general atmosphere in the MkVI section is a real let down to this forum.

People like Jules and TT have been on here for ages and the latter in particular is always able to give quick, helpful advice. I don't know why they bother coming in here if this is the kind of play ground mentality they're faced with.
