Maybe in Canada. But the NAR 2019 Rabbit trim was more or less equivalent to the 2017 Sport trim, which was essentially an S model with performance pack, lighting pack, KESSY, and auto headlights/wipers.
I was looking it up. American rabbit trim definitely doesn’t have acc. My mistake
dunno about the Canadians though

Canadian Rabbit trim from 2019 was equivalent to the SE w/ Experience Package. It may have come with ACC, again don’t know lol. Prolly not since it’s typically reserved for exclusively SEL/Autobahn models
Gotcha

Trims can be a bit confusing as there are sometimes late additions in a model year and then you have the Canada/Mexico imports that muddy the waters.
Emich Volkswagen has the trim guides for the US where you can see what features were available when.

Software update, sounds like it may be related to emissions but I haven't researched it heavily. 2019 with 18k on it, no stalling but I'll likely get the update as there are reports of improved fuel economy... Side note, just got average of 39mpg highway using cruise control at ~70mph for about half an hour, the weekend previous I had a blast autocrossing the same car. Very nice to see the GTI offers great enjoyment on both sides of the fence, something I'm not terribly used to.

hm, I wonder if it’s for 1.8T/4Mo cars as well since I have a 2019 Alltrack and would love to re-gain the gas mileage I lost when I went APR S1 lol
Some emissions update thingy

The APR piece inserts into the voids in the factory dogbone. The powerflex insert inserts into the voids in the factory dogbone. You cannot run both simultaneously. You CAN, however, modify your powerflex insert to run the UPPER 034 insert in conjunction with the powerflex piece. 034’s upper insert is the only piece of its kind on the market, all others are 2-in-1 solutions (lower + upper insert). The 2-in-1 solution has inherent compromises, since the upper insert portions can only insert into the areas where there is direct voids with nothing in the way. Th upper insert fills much more of the upper void than any other solution on the market, besides perhaps a full-replacement lower/upper piece (unless my understanding of that is flawed and there is truly no such thing as a”full” replacement dogbone, just more hybrid-like pieces that retain the OEM upper bushing).
also yes you can re-use OEM bolt, though it IS a stretch bolt so you SHOULD get a new one for install.

Definitely feels dumb, but has anyone ever retrofit the window switches from the Mk7 (with the chrome tips) into a Mk7.5 (plain)? The chrome is a nice touch, wondering if they're compatible or not. Anyone know what the front driver and passenger part numbers would be if so?
