I suspect my Pilkington glass was installed incorrectly because the HUD display was undeniably distorted and crooked. Along with the noise and vibration, I couldn’t accept it as it was.
Now to see if my tint guy wants to cover new windshield tint in his warranty. Feeling a little naked with a...
My experience these past two weeks should be a good data point for anyone in this situation.
On 8/21 driving on NYC highways a random pebble audibly SMACKS my windshield. I immediately notice a quarter sized spiderweb crack at HUD level about four inches from the drivers A pillar - directly in...
I've purchased Tuxmats for my past two vehicles and I don't plan on buying any other mat ever.
The side coverage is the best feature. It provides coverage all the way up to the plastic trim.
20% ceramic all around.

I’ve seen one ITS in the wild EVER! None since I’ve owned the car. Drive all around NYC and Long Island literally have been in every borough this week.

Let’s get a meetup together!
I’m an active New York City Police Officer. (NYPD)

Turning headlights on the GTIs is a feature i miss for sure.

My 7th gen GTI was assembled in Mexico. Although build quality wasn’t up to MK6 standards was mostly rattle free.
The 6th gen GTI was assembled in Wolfsburg...
This. The cable secured to the vehicle is needed if even thinking about storing while parked.
For myself I would never leave a firearm in the car parked because if where I live. (NYC) I always have my Sig 365 IWB and train tactics in the drivers seat.
I keep a couple extra magazines in the car tho.
I agree with Tw1stedlog1k, if you can get into a new ITS with not to much damage to the wallet, I would absolutely do so if I were you. You’re always going to have little imperfections bother you throughout the life of the vehicle.
Before the ITS, I came from a manual GTI and the Golf R is the...
