    Crack in sunroof bezel/roof trim?

    I've had many vehicles with sunroofs and zero cracks or leaks. Honestly, I've never had a car with such low miles have so many issues and no way I keep this car outside of warranty. I was warned by multiple knowledgeable people who work on cars don't buy this car but I always wanted a GTI. I...

    Used car market is still nuts and way overpriced.

    2018 Autobahn paid off

    Yeah, in just the past 8-10 years I have bought and sold, traded more than anyone I personally know and the funny thing is most think I was always in debt but no, I worked hard on the front end buying for great deals and most I bought had great resale value so I lost money probably 1-2x...

    2018 Autobahn paid off

    Completely agree. Me personally, I honestly don't care about modding my GTI which I know is the minority here but I completely understand and respect those who do. Years ago I threw too much money modding stupid Jeeps and I would love to have my $$ back today but I have learned from my own...

    2018 Autobahn paid off

    Really? I can think of many cars that look better myself but obviously looks are very subjective. I'll take paid GTI over huge monthly Supra any day. I can write check today and pay mine off but 1.75% makes it difficult for me to follow through.

    EA 888 gen 3 possibly the most reliable engine?

    Mine is a 2018 with only 34,500 miles and well maintained and I've had 2 injectors, coils, spark plugs, and thermostat housing replaced. Thankfully all under warranty. But I've had plenty of cars never have any of those issues within 100k. I will say this is my first German and DI turbo...

    2018 GTI headlights LEDs unit.

    If you all had extra new set of LED headlights in boxes would you hold on to them for future replacement or sell? I still have mine.

    2018 GTI headlights LEDs unit.

    Not sure on repairing but I know they are ridiculous to replace because I have a pair that I'm debating if I want to sell and I'm looking at prices and it's just stupid. People are obsessed with LED lights. They are nice but before they were a thing I personally don't recall ever saying I just...

    What would you do?

    I live in central Texas. Maybe they do poorly in extreme heat. I have PPF on my headlights, mirrors, and door pillars. I did the headlights to hopefully prevent yellowing and rock chips. When I had accident with person throwing rocks on my car my headlights were spared due to the PPF. The...

    What would you do?

    Wow, your LEDs started cracking at 70k?? No accidents? Do you live in extreme cold area. Anyone else here have issues with them? Appreciate the feedback. Reason I am wondering if I should hold on to them.

    What would you do?

    Lol, I'm not going to do any track days in this car. Just trying to figure out best places to sell. Appreciate it. Does anyone know average lifespan of factory LED headlights?

    What would you do?

    After have paint done by body shop they also approved me for new LED headlights on my 2018 SE even though my current ones has PPF applied and nothing wrong with them. So.....I have a set of brand new LED with red lights in Volkswagen boxes. They are pretty expensive on eBay, etc... . Sell...

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    Nice. I find that extremely hard to believe because there's TONS on the used market. Very very few have high mileage. Please do show me some with 200k+ original engine transmission.

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    However, with this BS on my Carfax now I'm taking a hit on resale and I still have 4 years and 50k miles warranty remaining. That's a lot of warranty and I don't put more than 10-12k per year.

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    Nah.... I'll take a true Japanese car in 2022 which would be Mazda over Honda if I move on. Honda not the Honda of old. Garbage 1.5 and poor quality control. Mazda might be a small company but they make quality, reliable cars. Underrated.

    Anyone have thoughts on severity of carbon build up?

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    Appreciate it. Hopefully some more people will look at pics and let me know. I've never really seen inside, so not sure. Also, undecided if keeping car long-term so that was another reason. Wonder how much the 2 injectors, coils, plugs and thermostat housing would have cost with no warranty??

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    Getting car back today. They asked if I wanted carbon cleaning while open, I thought hard and declined. Cylinder 2,3 injectors, coils, plugs replaced along with thermostat housing but no water pump all warranty covered. Maybe I should have had it cleaned? I had no time to make decision...

    My hoaxwagen dealership experience

    Yeah, unfortunately not easy decision at all in this horrible market. I will say on the positive side, most people complain about paying more new currently but tend to leave out the other big side of the math equation....there will most likely never be a time again where you can get this much...
