    wading the waters, opinions please.

    Wagons make sense if you need the space. The Golf I told you about was sold last night. There will be more good deals in the coming months! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    wading the waters, opinions please.

    I bought the 2015 Golf TDI SEL back in Nov 2019. I’ve put 8k on it and love driving it...great interior, decent sound system, good sound insulation, great road trip car. I was going to buy the same for my wife..she currently drives a Honda Fit. She’s now decided to keep her car. In the meantime...

    Swap MK7 key fob for MK6 key fob?

    I too am rough on my fobs. I bought a used fob on eBay and switched out the covers. My issue was mostly the rubberized button cover... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    2015 Golf TDI Weird idle 'grinding' sound

    I also bought a 2015 (Golf TDI) that was stored for over a year in a dusty area(found it all over the covered parts Inder the hood). My car has the identical noise. I suspect it’s the serpentine belt tensioner. I bought a kit with the tensioner, belt, and two replacement bolts(bolt replacement...

    From MK4 to MK7 GSW and STOKED!!!

    Thanks @Nuje! Before you could reply I went into OCD mode and researched until I settled on Kerma TDI flash tune. It’s going to be 5-6 weeks before the transmission tuning device is available. I will update after install. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    ProfBrown's 2015 GSW TDI Build

    I’m also driving in SOCAL with a steep hill on my commute. I noticed if I really have to use the brakes it will come up with some slight warpage from the heat. Once it cools down it’s fine. I will definitely replace the front rotors and pads when it comes time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Headlight Advice

    Let us know how you like them. I’m a commercial photographer by trade and love the look of xenon 1st then LED’s. Currently have the lighting package on my ‘15 SEL and couldn’t be happier. I’ve gone as far as modifying a 325i headlamp System from tungsten to xenon/HID. Cool project with all the...

    2015 Golf TDI SEL 6 speed

    I have always considered KB or NADA online research, recently I’ve used Carfax and feel that the ‘Private Party Value’ seems to be the goal of what I try price my car for a no haggle price. Good Luck! https://www.carfax.com/value/ Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Anyone use koni special active on rear of golf?

    I just put a set on the rear of my ‘15 Golf SEL with stock springs. Overall happy with the purchase. The handling is far better than the bouncy stock Sachs shocks. Beefier design all the way round. Also got rid of the a annoying creaking sounds that occur in the rear end. Found the best deal...

    TDI on GTI springs

    I realize the main topic is GTI springs on a TDI... Since we also spoke about shocks I wanted to post my first stage(of three) concerning replacing the TDI springs. As previously mentioned the stock(Sachs) shocks are ‘bouncy’ and unsettled. The Koni Special Active was my replacement choice. I’m...

    Towing

    I think if I can tow a Uhaul containing a heavy 5 cylinder Mercedes Diesel behind a Prius (from BELLINGHAM ,WA to LA) you should be able to tow behind your TDI.
