    My start/stop is aggressive at creeping speeds

    I've maybe a odd problem with my Start/Stop on my 2019 mk7.5 rabbit. The start/stop is sometimes aggressive in shutting down when the engine is warmed up. I'll be creeping up to a light and it turns off at 1 or 2 mph. The car is actually still moving! No other problems, it just has that odd...

    Paint worn under cargo floor 27k GTI

    Anybody without a carpet liner in back should check the area under the trunk "floor". Finally decided to soundproof my cargo/trunk area in my 2019 Rabbit, ~27k miles. Found some disturbing paint wear. VW has not equipped the Rabbit with a trunk liner for the spare to sit on, so the cargo...

    temperature sensor under rain tray ? not secured

    Help! So I got a filter cover to cover the cabin air intake under the rain tray (mk7.5, 2019 GTI), and got a surprise when I removed the rain tray. There's a little 2-wire sensor (temperature?) just wedged in, wrapped in foam. Cord's not long enough to secure to inlet position. Is this another...
