We are heading off on a caravan trip through western QLD over easter with our Tiguan Allspace.

I'd rather not have to rely on the space saver if I get a puncture, so I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions for a cheap, but full-size, spare ?

Just for laughs I called...

Is it on par with other VW's of the same era? If you've upgraded your speakrs, what have you done?

Sad the Dynaudio wasn't an option on the early cars....

I've had Vws before, Mk2 Polo, Mk3 Golf, VW Caddy, all ooooooooold VW steel!
Looking to maybe get back into the brand with a B8 Passat as one last ICE powered hurrah before in say 5 years time a hybrid or EV is the only real option.

Hi, and thanks!

Got an RS245 and I have to drive with the soundaktor on because it's so quiet.

I like how the MK7.5 R (and GTI) sound from factory. It's not loud but not silent like the Octavia.

Wonder if you guys know the differences between the Octavia exhaust system over the equivalent...

Obviously the sliding windows leak, although one is worse than the other. The retracting blind is rust discoloured now, so time to do something about it.

Have read that one option is to have the whole window replaced with an aftermarket sliding window. Has anyone done this? I'd be looking...

Went through a tow ball and it went through the front bumper.
Has anyone found a good aftermarker supplier of body parts.
Genuine being last option please.

Hi everyone, poor old Gidget T4 diesel campervan has thrown the engine timing belt. I can't get anyone around here to even assess the damage let alone take on the repair. She is a member of the family so will be fixed. Anyone know of a repairer within a couple of 100 k's of the Illawarra who might help....

Hi Caddy folks

My sister has asked me to do the front brakes and some other maintenance on her Caddy.
I just cannot work out what size rotors to buy.

Listings show 3 sizes along with option codes
280MM 1ZM, 1ZF
288MM 1ZE
312MM 1LJ, 1ZA

I am looking to let the Tig go as we have had the car for 3 and a half years, 54K km. My next car has come earlier than expected.
It's a 19.5 series 162 Highline with R-Line option, Sunroof and Sound and Vision Dynaudio package. Looking at about 50K give or take. Shoot me a PM if interested....

Read a couple of opinions that its not a bad option to get a EGR delete done - thoughts

I'm looking at intercooler upgrades for stage 2/3. Anyone have a recommendation?

Not sure what to look for apart from how much it drops the temperature and ?keeps? pressure I assume?

Will an intercooler upgrade help to make it respond/drive more like it does on a cool night...

Hello to the Golf R owners. We own a 2018 Golf GTi and I am considering a Mk 7.5 Golf R for myself, and leaving the GTi as a second car for my wife (and kids and dog to continue to trash). I am thus very familiar with the brand but am finding it hard to “value” a 2nd hand R at the moment given...

Today has been an interesting day. We have been considering replacing the Multivan for years but it just keeps going. Maintenance is starting to get up and it's starting to show its age around the edges. On one hand we could keep it and just keep driving it since we own it... but that comes with...

hi guys, aim looking at the v8 line but at this moment it may just be a bit out of my price line.
i have done a bit of research and was wondering if a tuned v6 that is producing 220 kw and 630 nm would be a great option when making a comparison between the v6 and the r line.
i tow a van...

I need to re-paint my front brake calipers (which are stock red ones on a Golf GTI Mk6) because they're pretty scuffed and have a few chips

Does anyone have an opinion as to whether to re-paint without removing them (ie. masking etc to avoid overspray) and removing them entirely to...
