Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Another difference I think is that the sunshields in the GT Sport are extendable.

      ahh, very nice.

      From what i could find, they seemed pretty similar. I have just collected a 1.4 TSI GT 2007 model & noticed some GT Sport models around while looking for mine.

      It does have the full height MFD & non-MP3 single cd audio system (Hence my first addition, an Xcarlink )

      I'm now thinking the black headlights or the HID's....

        Other than that small discretion, all the differences seem to be covered
        Mea Culpa - you're right, Paul! My bad!

        Re: the extendable sunvisors: AFAIK it was on the GTI (5 door too) from 05 to some point before 07 when it was cut from the specs (penny pinching). I'm gob-smacked that it apparently has found its way back.
        As for its usefulness on a 5 door, it sure is - there's about a 15cm gap between its end and the B pillar - right alongside where my noggin is.
        Very annoying when driving with the sun on the starboard side...

          RE: the sun visors, I think it may be luck of the draw whether your car has them. They're extendable in the sense that you can pull them sideways a little bit. Makes sense to have them on the 3 door models since the side window would be much longer.
