No ETA - later this year I understand! We obviously have our own HP DSG upgrades already installed in a lot of Golf 7's

Hi,
After a bit of consideration, I'm looking to upgrade the GTI PP and get myself into the R. Just wondering what price guide I should be aiming at for leather with drivers assist? Also, is there any upgrades in the near future regarding the MY16?
Thanks

^^Thanks for that. Cheers

That's a great price. Good combo too! I just went stock with DSG $55 with corporate!

I had initially ordered GTI PP and on boat month from delivery I changed order to R! As soon as they allowed corporate rates! Cost me $5k more but worth every cent! You won't regret it at all and especially if you go stage 1 tune it's complete animal and with AWD usable power!

I paid $60500 in Nov 14 for a fully loaded R with DSG

Apologies for the silly question, but what's DA?

DA is Driver Assistance package, which is adaptive (radar) cruise control and preventative crash thingy (PCT!) etc. Good value at only$1,000 (at the time-may be a different price now).

Does anyone know if the self leveling headlights can be adjusted via vcds. I find them pointing down too far with not enough distance on normal beam

Sorry if this has been asked but 306 pages is too much to trawl through.

When in Individual mode with engine in sport, the throttle is much sharper. But only for a while. If you leave it permanently in that mode it softens off somewhat. A quick switch to Eco and straight back again and it's all different. I'm talking switching over and back while at the lights so it's not a perception thing. Anyone else noticed this?

Has been noticed that if you drive around in Eco and then switch to race you notice for a while that it isn't as peppy as it is if you where to drive around in race the whole time
