    What did you do to your MK7 today?

    Got it back yesterday from the shop. They broke all of the grab handles somehow, but paid to replace them so I have all new grab handles. All the dents are gone at least!

    Blinker coding - oscillating rear

    Is this a local or federal law? I've never seen anything like that in my state. My Subaru alternates its amber turn signal and the red brake light around it when I'm braking. When not braking they flash in sync. I've had police here tell me it looks good..

    Anybody elses dealer cuts corners on the oil / filter changes on the new 2015s?

    Glad the forums could help out! I tried all sorts of things including a strap wrench before getting out the hammer that were all a waste of time. I'm glad the tire was in valve-stem down otherwise I may have just checked the pressure without actually removing the tire which would have come back...

    Anybody elses dealer cuts corners on the oil / filter changes on the new 2015s?

    My car was exactly the same as this. Over filled by 600mL and the spare tire was holy **** tight. I thought the plastic nut was going to break when I had to tap it loose with a hammer.... Spare tire was also at 25PSI...

    What did you do to your MK7 today?

    I ordered a 1x5' roll of matte black vinyl on Amazon. I grabbed a sheet of printer paper and scissors cutting it to shape it until it was exactly the size of that window. I then transferred that to the vinyl and did one side which turned out great so I mirror it onto another piece and did the...

    Vinyl wrapped the little mirror windows since they can't be tinted easily. 20170505_133106 by Alex, on Flickr 20170505_133120 by Alex, on Flickr

    Sportwagen rear license plate frame

    Same, I'll use 8 total and then give the rest to anyone local. Maybe if I drop them off at the dealer it can prevent future failures on their part...not. Thanks for all the information gents. Hopefully the #10 screws will still go in my bracket and I don't have to replace it.

    FWIW if you push and hold the lock 'button' on the drivers door handle it will put the windows up.

    Sportwagen rear license plate frame

    Thanks for the 'Crack-master'Carr part number. That place already gets a lot of my money :o I'll have to go harass my salesman until he hands over some touchup paint to prevent rust there. I already had to hassle them about having their detail job, if you can call it that, redone since there was...

    "New" TDI owners...check yoru paint!

    Thanks for the heads up! I'm having a 3rd party company re-detail the car at the dealers expense because they did such a trash job the first time around. I'll mention that to them and have them check it over.

    Sportwagen rear license plate frame

    I recently picked up a 2015 TDI Sportwagen as many others have over the past month or so. My hatch has a plastic bracket on it for holding the plate, but the dealer installed 4 oversize screws that were also too long and left a mark in the paint under each hole. Does anyone know the correct...

    Another new 2015 question

    "New" 2015 GSW Incoming. Couple of questions for the experts:

    Vehicles with near 0 miles won't have any contaminants in the oil so it looks like it just came out of the bottle. The oil from the factory may also have no coloring added to it.

    What did you do to your MK7 today?

    Thanks for the info sir! It wasn't on for my commute this morning, but I'm sure it will return next time I drive a longer distance. I'll just pull a little bit out and set the level correctly on the stick since that's too hard for the dealer to do ;)

    What did you do to your MK7 today?

    3 days into TDI ownership: 2015 GSW with 500 miles is telling me to "Reduce oil level!" I guess it's a tiny bit over the 'D' area on the dipsick.. sigh. Oil does smell a bit like Diesel exhaust. Is that normal?

    Clear bra- possible group purchase?

    If you use a PDF reader like Adobe Reader DC you can do File > Export to > Image and to a JPG. I'd be interested in this as well. I haven't done clear bra before, but I've done vinyl somewhat and I did my whole dash and doors in Alcantara so "how hard could it be"??

    Bought it! I've been trolling this forum for a few weeks and the number of posts in the MK7 section has sure increased over the last few days!:D
