I like most thing about my R. Having the front end bottom out from modest potholes is not one of them. I’ve triple double checked that the shipping blocks have been removed. Dealer on multiple occasions says suspension is fine. I even went to an 18” wheel with all seasons with little to no...

17’ Golf R manual. Having a strange issue where the car will intermittently crank for an extended period. I hit the start/stop button as soon as I notice this happening so I’m not sure how long it would crank and if it would even start. A couple times I had the radio up and it’s been at least...

2017 Golf R with Pretoria's & P-Zero's. Chicago roads make for a brutal ride. It's only a matter of time until the Pretoria's are ruined. Further the Zero's aren't very good, especially when compared to something like PSS. But I digress. So I was going to buy a dedicated set of 17" snow tires...

Looking for winter wheels & tires for MK7 R in the Chicagoland area. Open to tire & wheel combo or just wheels and tires. Let me know what you have. Thanks TL

It's been more than a year since the release of the AP for the Mk7 GTI. During the release the R development was "in the pipeline". I know they have historically taken time to get things right but we're not talking about a substantial difference between the GTI & the R. Anyone have some insight...

Since as far back as I can remember I've only had black cars. And the car just previous to the R was satan incarnate. The white R was impulse buy and the choice of colors and lack of aggression is making me long for something else. It doesn't help that my neighbor keeps asking my how my daughter...

New Golf R DCC with roughly 1,500 miles. At highway speeds car is not planted, likes to dart all over the place. Please keep in mind that this is in relative terms. I've never been a Pirelli fan and have had some version of Pilot Sport's for the last couple decades. So my 1st though is wider...

Hello, old guy from Chitown with a new R. Wanted a fun daily driver. Narrowed my choices down Focus RS, M235 and Golf R. Ride quality or lack there of on the RS was tolerable but couldn't live with the up in the air tractor style seating position. Certainly an amazing car. Couldn't find a...
