Hi all, I’ve tried doing a search but am not seeing anything relating to what I’m doing with my GSW. I have a 2015 Sportwagen TDI SEL with DSG and bought a brand new Mk7 Golf R DSG steering wheel. The Golf R steering wheel has a coucple extra buttons compared to my original SEL MFSW. I put...

I’ve had this happen on every Mk4 VW I’ve owned, along with my Mk6 Jetta and Mk7’s. Seems to do it most when ever I disconnect and reconnect the main battery. Seems like in order for them (or one) to start working automatically again I have to cycle the windows up and down a few times (does it...

Nice! I was real iffy and skeptical about buying another Mk7 after VW bought back my first Mk7 TDI SEL 6 speed MT. Loved my first one but put 44k miles on it in one year, hit a dear, got it fixed then a few months later hit a semi tire tread damaging the same side as what the deer caused. VW...

Not my GSW but my first Mk7 TDI. Lowered on ST Coilovers. Best riding coilovers I’ve ever felt.

I don’t think I posted about my previous Mk7 iPad dash install before so here it goes. I did this to my first Mk7 TDI SEL with MIB 1 in 2016. I used an iPad Pro 9.7 with cellular, a secondary radio bezel with AC vents I sourced on eBay and a hard plastic iPad case that I cut and epoxied to the...
