    Offer Letter Just Received

    Finally got my letter yesterday for my 11' Golf. Had my docs approved on 11/7 and have been waiting since. Active loan on the car was the obvious hang up I expect. Notarized and resubmitted my letter last night, though I had to get creative with how to get the notary symbol to show up. Hate to...

    How long have you owned your MkVI? Miles driven?

    Owned 11' Golf since new in June of 2011. Only real issue is the intercooler icing, experienced mild to harsh symptoms 5 times this winter. Only occurred possibly once prior to this winter.

    Hard Start / No Start - Is your intercooler frozen? Check Here!

    Well the two winters prior to this I've had no issues, this winter is a different story though. I've experienced the intercooler issues 4 times between Thanksgiving and the first weekend in January. Twice it's cut off instantly after starting, and all times it's ran rough. The first time I...

    Hard Start / No Start - Is your intercooler frozen? Check Here!

    I'm glad I started reading this thread. I've had this problem three times in the last month, twice where it wouldn't start and once where it did start but ran rough. For a while there I thought the HPFP was starting to go and I've run an additive since new. We were about to trade the car off to...

    Gloves for Refueling ???

    I keep a pair of cheap work gloves in each vehicle specifically for this purpose. I don't have a problem if diesel gets on my hands, it just bothers me if it does and I have no where to wash it off at. After that it ends up getting on everything you touch...steering wheel...shifter, etc. It's...

    2012 Golf TDI Bluetooth issues

    Your issue sound pretty spot on to the issues I was having with my Samsung Fascinate. Spotty connection, disconnection after every phone call was made, random drop outs on bluetooth. My wifes iPhone 4 worked flawlessly, so when it was time for my upgrade I got a 4s. So far I have had some issues...

    Good source for additive bottles....

    I went to Walmart and bought 6 bottles of their "Super Tech" brand injector cleaner for around $1.30 a piece, (see here). It came in a bottle that had a capacity of around 6 oz., with a white label and a long neck, perfect for being able to reach easily into the fuel door without spilling. I...

    DSG or 6M

    It's all up to you, but if the manual has been good to you and you've been happy with it, "if it ain't broke don't fix it." I went with the 6M because I just loved the feel of the stick, and while the DSG is probably the best automatic I have ever driven, I just wanted the feel and control of...

    iPhone 4 and 4S bluetooth compatibility

    My 4S has been pretty good in my Golf so far, although it has it's issue. It pairs fine, but randomly it will loose connectivity with the BT even though it says it's connected. You'll know it because if you recieve a call or try to make one using the steering wheel controls, it either doesn't...

    Bluetooth help with ringer volume on cell

    The only problems I've had with my 4s is that when you plug it into the MDI, the songs from the music app will show up but none of them play, except for one. That same song is the only one that will play normally through the speaker on the phone itself. Every other song is heavily distorted...

    Bt-audio

    On the radio screen, is BT Audio grayed out or is not there completely? Are you able to pair your phone at all? Have you tried unplugging the bluetooth module and plugging it back in, kind of like doing a reset?

    2010 JSW Bluetooth: no device to pair

    Like the bluetooth from the car won't show up on your phone at all? Can you see the pair screen for the phone in the MFI? Have you tried unplugging the bluetooth module under the seat and plugging it back in? I couldn't see the pairing screen at all and resetting the module like I just mention...

    iPod IOS 5 & MDI

    What kind of problems? When I hook my 4s up to the MDI it displays all the songs that I have on there, but if I select one to play nothing happens. It does this with all 100+ songs on the phone except for 1, this is the only 1 that will play at all on there. Also, if I try to stream through...

    BT-Audio Autoplay-Not Displaying?

    Have you tried turning off the phone and turning it back on since you synced it with the car? I just went through the same issues with my Golf. Synced the phone but BT audio wouldn't work. Restarting it, so to speak, go the BT audio working. But I think bugs in iOS5 are causing skipping and...

    2011 Golf - Phone pairing screen not showing up on MFI

    9w7 I believe. Either way, turning the phone on and off reset the bluetooth streaming. It worked fine with my android so I knew it had to work with the 4s. I think the issues I'm having now are because of bugs with iOS5. Songs in the music app are skipping and starting in random places, and it's...

    2011 Golf - Phone pairing screen not showing up on MFI

    Well unplugging/replugging the module fixed the screen not appearing issue. However, even though the phone is connect up and making calls fine, I can't stream music to the radio via Bluetooth. It just acts as if it can't seen the radio or doesn't recognize the feature. I'll have to try some more...

    Hmm, maybe I'll try unplugging the module just for the heck of it.

    2011 Golf - Phone pairing screen not showing up on MFI

    Hey All. I went to go pair my new iPhone 4s last night and the phone pairing screen doesn't even show up in the MFI. I had the Bluetooth on the phone turned on and searching but it couldn't find a thing. I tried pushing the Bluetooth button on the headliner multiple times, turning the car off...
