It’s just getting warm! Lol. But not like you’re used to.

Isn’t SF typically pretty breezy and cool?

That's true. I used to be fine with 7°C foggy weather in SF, but now my body's adjusted to the 26°C and up range. We even have summer temps reaching 45°C, so I'm not exposed to the cold as much anymore.

What I don't understand is that it was like 13°C earlier this morning, and my Canadian relatives needed to turn on the AC in the car. I had to put on a beanie and zip up my jacket!

Welcome! You'll probably also notice that there's as many Golf R's on the road as GTI's, at least in my experience. It does rain here alot [emoji1]

Thanks!

I've seen many Golf Rs, but a bit more GTIs. Tbh, I may have seen more Golf Rs here already than I've ever seen in my area in the past 2.5+ years I've owned my GTI.

There were also plenty of nice-looking Mk4 Golfs going around Downtown Vancouver today. I *never* see those anymore.

Hey I'm still looking to see if anyone can help me out with their OBD11. I'm in the Langley area and would be more than happy to bring you a case of beer or something.

Seen this post now, I have OBD11 and also live in Langley if you need a hand.

Anyone local running the Clubsport S muffler? If so are you happy with the sound for daily driving?

100% happy with it. No other exhaust mods.

It’s quite controllable, if that makes any sense.

I bought one of the first 5 that e-acca.com sold. Paid $380 USD shipped. Feb/Mar 2017.

Hey Guys!
Im considering starting a WhatsApp group for us BC MK7'ers. I figure it would be easier to coordinate meets, sell parts, etc. Would any of you guys be interested in joining?

How far is it from stock sound when just say, commuting in traffic? I drive South Burnaby to PoCo everyday so no real highway driving but more stop and go.

It’s deeper than stock when driving mildly. And it’s not much louder unless you are aggressively accelerating. And the control over how loud the DSG farts is probably the best part. I don’t mind meeting up if you want to check it out sometime. I’m 45, grown kids etc... I think you will really like it.

I always hear that the Leavenworth drive is a lot of fun, maybe I will go this year.
On another note, is anyone on here planning to go to the DAS VW weekend up in Kelowna??

The drive is fantastic, but the destination is a complete waste of time.
