Slightly off topic, will l need to run the GTD in?

No, just make sure you don't rev it above 3.5k until the oil is near 90 degrees. It takes longer than the water temperature to get to normal.
5 door GTD in night blue collected 1/3/17

4 weeks in and still with the factory. Online chat still have a potential build of week 31. I get the hump when I cannot buy something on Amazon Prime now and have it delivered in 2hrs time - this is killing me  :grin:

My order has been built and is in transit according to VW chat  :smiley:  Now I just have to wait another 3-4weeks until I get it!
Thankfully it won't be the 25 weeks I was quoted at time of order!

Something like 20 weeks from order to actual build week for mine, probably something like another 4 weeks after that before its ready to collect, so 25 weeks from start to finish sounds about right.

Just to put that into perspective, 26 weeks is SIX MONTHS.

Current: Mk8 GTI DSG, Adelaides, DCC, HUD, HK, Winter Pack, Rear Camera.. Aka "HMS Weasel"

Gone: 2017 Mk7.5 GTD,manual, NavPro
Gone: 2014 Mk7 GTD, manual, NavPro, DCC
