Golf R Observations and Questions

[dave_r]

Thats the way! Respect....hope there is salami and garlic hanging from the roof as well, and a ton of fruit and veg trees in the back yard!

Um... 3 out of 4 hehe

I guess that walking to work cause you didn't read the owners manual just helps to make you "stronger" too

Well actually it does from a healthier point of view

I borrowed a friends manual for the R and have read it before i have taken delivery of my car. Afraid i am a closet manual reader, for everything i buy, if it hs a manual, I read it.

Here's one for you: How much windscreen washer fluid can you add?

This forum is my R "manual"!

Checkout the paint job on this R's Talladegas. Not my cup of tea but just thought I'd share.

That looks horrid!! Not waiting for work.

I stopped past Berwick Volkswagen today to waste $75 on some rear floor mats and saw that they have Dean's Golf R on display (the one he used on the Targa Tasmania earlier this year). If you're in the area you may wish to check it out. I didn't take any photos, but I'm sure you all know what it looks like.

I bought my car from there and the salesman mentioned the car at the time. Seem like a pretty good dealership.

From experience about 4 litres.

I think i need to vomit!

This almost seems like Berwick VW actually approves APR tuning!

[Ryan_R]

I was more surprised since it's a nice advertisement for Volkspower (as opposed to dealer servicing)

[Corey_R]

I'm not really surprised.... Volkswagen have a long history of participating in motorsports. They've also got a long relationship with APR. Whilst we haven't really seen any VGA APR partnerships in this country, I was actually introduced to APR by it being mentioned to me by my dealer., the Scirocco 24 hour cars use some APR parts, VW of America commissioned APR to help build it's SEMA cars a few times (I believe that's where the first Stage III GTI came from), and there have been various countries which have released cars which come pre-flashed with the APR ECU, including Singapore.

Volkswagen are also leading the Grand-Am Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge in the "Street Tuner" class courtesy of APR America's efforts.

Good points, however if something breaks due to the extra horsepower created by APR tuning, would they still have warranty?

[Corey_R]

It's been discussed in the Tuning and Performance forum on many occassions. The answer is no different to the warranty sitation if you change your stereo, or your suspension, or your whatever else on a car...
