If anyone has noticed the wipers on their new golf not clearing the windscreen properly, particularly in line with the drivers field of view, get your dealer to fit the new improved ones before you hit 1000km. After that VW aren't interested. Apparently the springs in the centre of the wiper blade currently aren't strong enough to accommodate the windscreen curve of the new mk7.

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.

With your music, did you use an SD card or a USB drive. How did you arrange your music? Did you do 1 folder per album or have a folder for each artist with subfolders for each album?- MkVII 90TSI Comfortline 5-door, 2014, Pacific Blue (LA5J) 6MT, w/ Driver Assist 2 and Discover Media - DELIVERED

I use a 64gig SD card for my music.Originally posted by stedes View Post
Depending on the artists, I have artist then subfolders for albums. If there's only one album I like from an artist though I just leave it as 1 folder.
Also if you want the album art to display it's w400 x h400 dimensions.Comment

1 week in and we love our new GTi. However, one thing I haven't worked out is if the cabin (ceiling) lights are meant to come on when you open a door.Ordered mkVII GTI - carbon steel - DSG - bi xenon - leather - sunroofComment

On my MK 6 it turns on when you unlock the car. Make sure the switch at the top is in the O position i think. Pretty much make sure it isn't clicked in.Originally posted by cox11 View Post
On a side note, my car just left Durban, South Africa, and is on it's way across the Indian Ocean to Perth. Not long now (unless the ship does a detour and looks for the plane)
