    Gentex replacement rearview mirror

    Just to follow up, the auto-dimming feature is working very well on the newly installed mirror. Wife drove it this morning and she commented on how well it worked. We would both constantly be flipping the manual mirror and find the automatic mirror dims the bright lights very well. Excellent...

    Gentex replacement rearview mirror

    Thanks to all the advice in this and other threads I just finished installing my GENK41A in our 2011 Golf TDI (with sunroof). Took a couple of hours with many trips from the garage to the computer. I hooked up both power leads to the red/blue wire off the overhead console light connector which...

    New TDI Golf - iPhone Question

    I think I'll go with one of those dash mounts rather than a windshield one. Thanks for the tip on the cable extension, that should do what I need as everything's working great, I just can't access the other programs with it in the console. If a mod could move this to the Golf forum, that'd be...

    New TDI Golf - iPhone Question

    Hi DieselNerd, Yeah I tried bluetooth but then you lose the slick music integration with the stereo, info center and steering wheel controls. Unless I'm doing something wrong and others have figured out how to show song info and control the music via bluetooth? I have many thousands of songs...

    Warranty About to Expire on 2006 Golf TDI

    Hi all, Are there any things known to be problematic on these cars that I should check before the warranty expires in the next 200 miles? The car seems to be performing well and other than some little stuff that's been corrected under warranty: glow plugs hood latch (twice) leaking oil from...

    HELP!: Thinking of buying a New TDI Golf

    No, I'm in Alberta and there's still lots available up here. Buddy at work hooked me up with carcostcanada.com. Was able to find out what the dealer wholesale price is. It also told me that one of the local dealers is willing to give $1200 CDN over their cost. This works out to them making...

    HELP!: Thinking of buying a New TDI Golf

    Spent the weekend looking at cars with the wife. We both liked the TDI golf. Was just blown away when we were told that for a loaded GLS (demo with 250km, couple of chips/scratches, only missing option was side airbag) the best he could do for an all inclusive price was $29,800 Canadian. This...
