After temps like 35Ć today and yesterday . Quick rinse off . Still love this beast so much . 

Update for the mtec discs and yellowstuff pads.. works great . Immense stoping power .bt they are squeeling sometimes . They didnt came loose from the backing covers .. gues it has to do with outside heat . O and dont panic .

I never use handbrake when possible

And in neutral when possible ..

I dont wash the car on hot brakes either . So no panic . The selfwash is like 2 minutes of driving . So so real heat got in them...  never planning on doing that coz my mate warped his discs

I did the same, used a good water repellent from autoglym.

 

Never use my mirrors or indicators anyway :dull:

The fact that it is made out of plexiglass put me off to be honest and so I got a glass one.

There is no description of the material used - I actually contacted them before buying and they told me they use acrylic (plexi glass). You can double check if you like to make sure.

 

The one you should try is https://www.gecleant.de/shop/glasstopfen-fuer-audi-vw-seat-skoda.html made of glass and fits perfect. 

When you install it push just enough so it sits flush with the rear window. After it dries then apply silicone in the gap between the plug and the window and afterwards wipe the excess with a cloth. Don't worry about the mess you can remove it easily after it all dries.

 

Sorry for the dusty pic. Too much pollen around.

Maybe switch off the TC and then try 'D', and a V-Box or something accurate.

Quickest acceleration from 0-100 mph / 161 km/h might be with the car in Manual 1 and then do not change gear force the DSG to until 5th.

Use hand brake not foot brake before flooring it.

  • Author

Its quite accurate actually . And i dont need to go to 5th gear to go to 100kmh...

Wont buy a vbox just for that. 

Would try manual with traction off . Maybe someday . Glad to see my car does 5.5sec to get to 100k

I know you should not need to go to 5th to get to 62 mph, it should just be going into 4th.

 

5th is needed at 100 mph / 161 km/h on an unmapped one usually.

The DSG will change in manual up into 4th.

Just mentioning it as it usually gives a quicker 1/4 mile time and terminal speed than S or D.

So finally doing some more mods to the car.

Opened up the DRL'S . The chrome trim inside will be gloss black. Because one fell of and the other had a water leak so it hazed up all the time . 

Did a wiper delete also. Maybe make an intercooler spraybar ... mcm style :)
