In a word, moderation I've heard that they're a right pair  :laugh:

All versions of vag com / vcds are free yes but as you quite rightly say the lead is payable but worth every penny  :wink:

I take it the gear change thing in question is that annoying display that tells you when you should change gear??  :undecided:


I do have it on mine.... would love to get it taken off if possible!!

I agree, I've never needed an indicator to tell me to change gear!

A right pair of nice guys.  :wink: :cool:

I find the indicator is in synchrony with my driving style only on a dead flat road. It is hopelessly optimistic when there is an incline of any kind or in traffic jams. Whether I follow it or not, makes little or no difference to fuel economy. Still, it is an interesting feature which is only partially useful. :smiley:
But, I do keep looking at it constantly. :embarassed:
Basically, it is an indicator for those people who don't know their apples from their oranges. :lipsrsealed:

It encourages more economical driving, if you are in to that.

You wicked person.
Yesterday you promoted murder  :shocked:, today it is banning.
Gilly, are you the resurrected Kev?  :undecided:

Back on topic: :grin:
What I cannot understand is that why some GTDs, all of which were released after the GTI and thereby all being much newer cars, don't have this indicator enabled? :undecided:
Are there also older GTIs that don't have this feature enabled?
