GTI Clubsport.....Can't be long now

The rear tints were on the options list nit sure in the % factor

The rears do have a heavier tint than the fronts at 65%, but if you hit the option button you get 90% instead.

Look like 90% to me.

The only issue i have with my car is the reccaro seat, im not sure if mine has failed or developed a fault, before i ring my dealer i'll ask here, when im sat in it and push back it is now making quite a bad creaking noise, it was slight when i first had it, but over the last week it has got a lot worse, so when im driving and brake or corner, any shift in body weight, and im only 12 stone at the moment, the seat creaks ... anyone else thats owns have this

Several owners in Germany are having similar issues with the bucket seats, for that very reason I went with the standard option. From what I understand going by the information on the link below  the issues are not easily resolved. Do hope you get yours sorted out.

That's an issue I couldn't live with on an old car, let alone a brand new Golf!

Strangely, mine and a friend's in Germany (also with buckets) are fine. I asked another guy in Sweden with the seat noise to send me a vid with it, just to make sure I wasn't filtering out anything due to excitement about the car and the creak definitely isn't there in mine. Guess it's pure lack that some suffer and others don't, but if that's the case it should mean there is a solution to it I imagine?

On the other hand I have the fuel lines rattle which is an easy fix but most CS owners don't seem to have it, you can't get 100% lucky I guess...

Ive seen one vid with the seats making a clunky noise but its not that, mine have the plastic creak noise, everytime bodyweight is shifted into the seat. I have emailed the dealer but i dont think much will be done

Progress ..... i had a look under the seat, at the back there are two parts touching and when i move these rub, causing the noise, bit of lubrication and solved.. no more creaking

Good news and good to know just in case mine creak in the same way.
