& now the screen wash cap is partly blocked...

Best to fit the proper Audi one which hinges from the other side...:cool:

that's another of my guides to read...

Agreed, washer fluid cap definitely needs to be swapped out. And looking for something to replace the fabric battery cover. Thought I read somewhere that the full plastic cases from Tiguans can be swapped out, anyone come up with a good option?

Another guide.....:D


Again they only fit to the R-Line, GTD, R, & the eco 1lt engine versions....

Message to VW...Just go the whole hog & fit it as standard to every estate car. as it improves the aero, keeps the rear screen clearer & makes the car look better!!...

Believe it or not I actually found out about the spoilers elsewhere, shocking right? Hahaha. But was grateful to confirm the correct part #s from your guide.

Lucked out and found someone online selling a perfectly matched set of European rear seat side headrests (thank you Hunter). If you haven't seen this upgrade before it makes a nice difference seeing out the rear window

RS3 coils/RS7 plugs installed today and a noticeable difference immediately. Much smoother at idle and through acceleration. Highly recommend if you're tuned, only gripe is that I didn't do it sooner. :)

Thanks, much appreciated. And congrats on your new GSW, liking the wheel choice.

Been wanting black mirror caps for a while, shout out to Jedimk7 for the inspiration to finally get my arse in gear. Normally a big fan of staying with original equipment, but for less than 20% of the genuine VW part I went AliExpress. Fit was spot on and finish looks OEM, so as long as they hold up I think we have a winner. And yes, winter mode has been activated.
