    Marketplace?

    Can we get a dedicated marketplace forum yet? I get that there's not a ton of traffic here, but I have some MK8 specific parts I'd like to sell. and buy.

    Well that certainly clears things up.

    Over the air update ???

    After some digging I found vw started doing OTA updates on 2020 model years, because they have a 4G car net connection. The early years have 3G, which doesn't support it. The updates are mostly for the electric vehicles but include the ICE ones too. The mk8 forum has a bunch of threads on...

    Over the air update ???

    My wife said her 2020 GTI popped up with a message on the infotainment screen asking her to "Download Update". Apparently it has over the air updates somehow? I'm still rocking my 2012 GTI, so I had no idea. Thought that was only a thing on Tesla's. Anybody else get this message today...

    Are they still making GTI's

    Ford is ridiculous. They decided to kill all of their sedans except the mustang, then they turned the mustang into an SUV. Then they revived the Bronco SUV, then they said Bronco is actually it's own brand of 3 different SUVs with more to come. Talk about an over correction.

    Rs3 Coilpacks not working

    Any time you change the coil packs, especially to different ones, you should re-gap the spark plugs to match. I tried R8 coil packs in my MK6, they didn't last long because I didn't have the proper spark plugs.

    Are they still making GTI's

    well, supply and demand is a double edge sword isn't it? If no one is buying them, the manufacturer is not exactly jumping at the chance to build a ton of them. Your anecdotal evidence is not only suggesting that nobody is buying new cars, which would make sense in a pandemic, in a...

    Are they still making GTI's

    My wife just bought a 2020 GTI yesterday. We were going to wait until the fall, but the 0% financing convinced us to do it now. That and what the dealer said about inventory. For us, it has to be VW, must be manual transmission and has to be a hatchback or wagon. That severely limits...

    What did you get in the mail or bring home for your MKVII today?

    Today I brought home...my MKVII GTI! Well, my wife did anyway. She traded in her 2012 Golf and got a 2020 Iron Blue GTI S. We just snuck in under the wire on the 0% 72 month financing. This is our 4th Golf/GTI. I started with an '03 Golf and currently have a 2012 GTI which I'm hoping...

    (CAR) TV Shows you hate....

    Car Talk on npr is outrageously funny. I enjoy when I catch it on the radio, and sometimes listen to the podcast. When I was a clueless kid I liked "Trucks". I always wanted a huge dually or a wrangler rock crawler. Then I learned about mpg. Oh wait, this was supposed to be car...

    Drove a Tesla Model S today

    One of my old high school friends works for Tesla. He got to drive the Roadster. 3.7s 0-60 and ~250miles on a charge. I wouldn't turn one down. The funny part is my friend is 6'2 and the roof is barely up to his waist.

    Fun/Dirty Drinking Games?

    Nothing beats good ol' fashion beer pong. Use shots instead of sips of beer to accelerate the process. Cards against humanity, while not really a drinking game per se, is hilarious when participants are drunk.

    DAFUQ Did I Just Stumble Upon?

    wtf? I was a goth kid in high school. this was never a thing. Dancing was what the preppy kids did while we sat alone in corners being depressed. I blame Zumba.
