I'm at about 4K miles on the GTI, so far mostly positive. Recently I started to feel more vibration in the steering wheel and pedals. This is RPM-specific which makes me think of mounts.
I'm a VW virgin and I read a thread (that I now can't locate) that mentioned VW engine mounts having been historically problematic/soft. I'm aware of the irony of replacing the mounts with poly which will increase NVH but if I'm going to deal with vibration anyway I'd rather head this route. One thing I don't notice is any sort of engine rocking sensation on or off throttle, though I do drive like a grandma.
