According to my dealer there is no recall on the Sunroof.

No I wasn't aware of it, I'll call them on Monday. Hopefully I can still get it fixed. I did find the drains in the front and removed the little orange caps. The driver's one is a pain. There both are behind the shock towers near the firewall.

I have read through a bunch of posts on this subject and I just wanted to get opinions. I have a 2025 GSW with 111k on it so it's well past the warranty. I have only noticed the leak in the past weeks because the passenger side floor is damp. Especially the rear passenger floor. And as I...

It's just below the hash marks. Right on top of that ball. And after adding just 1 quart it will go half way up the hash marks.

I am on the opposite it seems here. I'm using 4 quarts in between the 10k interval. I'm in the process with VOA and the dealership to get it fixed. By the way does anyone know how much oil is left in there after the low oil light comes on?

108k on my 2015.

I've had 3 cold starts after sitting outside all night with no problems. It was around -10 to -16 °F

My car does that on really cold mornings for some reason. I stops after a while, after the car warms up.

Nice car, they are awesome. Don't crash it! They aren't makeing anymore because VW is stupid! Seriously, my 2015 GSW SE 6MT is one of my favorite cars that I have ever owned. Sadly, they stopped making them because of the emission scandal. I'm sure the EV cars will fill the gap. Anyways...

The DSG service is a little harder then your standard transmission fluid change. And I didn't want to spend the money on the computer program that is needed ( I forget the name ATM). To each their own, I prefer driving a manual in a car. And, BTW I almost spit coffee out of my nose about you...

That 40k interval comes up fast when you put on 25k a year. I couldn't wait to get rid of my old Jetta and buy the new GSW with a 6MT. I spent a ton of money getting that DSG serviced and I don't miss spending that money.

Manual transmission and the car has 81k on the odometer.

I just had my phase 2 done and I have not noticed any difference. I will have to wait for a couple of tanks to see if the MPG is different. They did replace the catalytic converter because it was damaged during the process.

It seems I have gone backwards, the car is burning more oil lately. I'm going to have the dealership do a test on my next oil change.

The 2015 are different and mine froze during the last two weeks. I was able to get it open but it was annoying. I'm still not sure what part is freezing but I will probably spray the whole thing down to try and stop it from freezing again.

Are we talking about a manual transmission or a DSG transmission?

Something isn't lining up, I'd take it in and have them look at it. I have not had that problem on my GSW and I almost have 60k on it. However, I know what you are talking about because I have occasionally experienced it on my 95 Mustang but its expected, it has a lot of hard miles on it :)

The throttle cuts off anytime you touch the brake. It's supposedly a safety feature, that is probably due to those run away Prius a few years ago. Which does not allow any heel to toe driving. That might be what through OP is talking about.

It is not hard at all. It is actually an easy and virtually mess free oil change. Just zip-tie the wiring harness out of the way (I don't even unplug it) and use the Oil drain plug in the filter housing. My 09 was easier with the top oil filter but I still had to remove the belly cover. So...

Their insane on the prices. I just thought I'd mention it, in case someone needed some oil in a pinch.

You can either buy Castrol at the dealership. Or if you live near a Pep Boys they sell Mobile ESP.

You are losing out of a lot money if you don't get the fix. The first part is a software fix that takes about an hour to complete and I got about $4000. I have not noticed any negative impacts what so ever. In fact, it feels like it runs a little better now. And next year they replace the...

My car used/burned a bit of oil in the first 10k and I had that light come on. I just added some oil maybe half a liter at around 8k and then some half way through to the 20k. But really, after that I have not had any issues. I think it takes some miles to fully seat the rings on these engines.

I have 50k and I have had only one minor A/C issue.

I'd do what Ol'Rattler said, use some polishing compound and polish. It works on headlights, it should work fine on the instrument panel cover.
