  • GTI/TFSI owners (and those with lowered vehicles)

    Do you have any dramas with kids and car sickness?

    It's getting a bit crazy with my 4yo to the point that even a 10-15min trip in my TFSI (on 18s) ends up with a bit of motion sickness. I presume its the rough ride plus the low seating / small windows that are doing it. Sure is driving me crazy ...

    You are probably right about small windows, mine (not 4 but 25) gets sick only sitting in the back. In the front he is OK.

    You could get rid of the car and keep the kid or get rid of the kid and keep the car.

        VW's are a bit crashy/ jerky in comparison to a lot of other cars on the road. You could try going back to 17's with thicker rubber? If it was me I would get rid of the kids..

          We have a 4 yr old that has never had car sickness at all. She seems just as comfy in our jetta or our tiguan. Drove to qld 2 yrs ago in the jetta with little one in the back without issues. Don't find our jetta rough over bumps despite 18" wheels.
          By lowered are you talking lower than factory or the 15mm that the 147tsi has over the base jetta??
          Ours is the 147tsi that is factory lowered , not aftermarket
