Whats included...
« on: 23 March 2010, 15:08 »
Can somebody tell me exactly what is included in;-

Lux pack?

Winter Pack?

Are these a standard set of items or can you add or take off items from each pack on initial order?
Looking for a new GTI!!!

Lux Pack contains - folding mirrors and reverse activated kerb view adjustment on passenger side

Winter Pack contains - Headlight washers (pain in the arse), heated windscreen washer jets and low wash fluid warning light.

I cant remember if the heated seats came as standard on the GTI or with the winter pack, I think standard but not 100%.

FYI the smoking and convenience pack both came as standard on the GTI.

IN YOUR FACE ALAND!

 :laugh:  :tongue:
MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

Never had headlight washers.  What's the "pain in the arse" issue BTW

The washers on the MK5 seem incapable of just washing your lights, they spray the whole of your bonnet. Now this might not sound like the end of the world, but try spending hours washing your car on a Sunday only for these poxy fecking jets to pop up and cover your bonnet in washing fluids that dries and leaves mark. Its a total pain, I mean how dirty can your lights get !? It totally ruins your bonnet.

They also run down the side as your move and leave trails of water all down the side of your car.

I think you worry far too much about the washer after washing your car, after all if you need to use your windscreen washers when driving then it must be dirt and rain, so the car's going to look bad regardless?

I don’t think the heated seats come as standard on a GTI, only on the ED30 and only on the standard GTI if you order the winter pack.

As for the lux pack, I have folding and heated wing mirrors, but the passenger side mirror doesn’t dip when I select reverse? I have the DSG gear box and rear parking sensors, so I don’t know if this affects anything? I did ask the dealer to fix this issue when the car went in for its DSG oil change, but when I came to collect it, the guy told me that it wasn’t possible on my car. I mentioned that I hade folding heated wing mirrors, and I thought that meant I had the lux pack, but he said I didn’t? So anyone got a clue as to why I have the folding heated wing mirrors but not the dipping passenger mirror when reversing?
Mrk V, GTI, 3dr, DSG, heated seats, winter pack, cruise control, rear parking sensors and now thanks to GizzyWizzy and SteveP in the MK6 section a RCD 510. Awesome!
