    Speed-dependent control

    Another Question, how does the speed-dependent control work? (tried a few searches ..)

    Thanks

    Well, it does what it says it does. You go faster, the volume increases a bit to adjust for the change in noise associated with driving faster.
    There's a sensitivity setting for it too, as well as the ability to turn it off completely. How to adjust it is explained fully in the respective manual for the head unit that you'ved picked for your car.

    It would be a lower quality if anything, cheaper car.

    My paint looks a bit dodgy in a few spots, has some light scratches so not sure if it was like it or a tree brushed it etc.

    Suppose to have paint protection but doesn't seem very thick, probably just needs a proper detail as it should polish out.

    I'd personally be surprised if there was any difference in paint quality between a Golf and an Audi A3/S3 - same car, same parent company, I'd say their processes are pretty similar. Between that and BMW M3. Well, the GTI costs $40k, and the M3 costs $160k. So for 4 times the price, I'd hope the paint quality was better

    Having same problems...swirl marks all over the paint, like it wasn't buffed properly pre-delivery. When did you get yours delivered? Chances are if it was towards the end of the month, they did a half a** job getting it prepped up. Mine is only two weeks old.

    My dealer is pretty good at making sure you are happy with the car (thumbs up Bill Buckle). They are going to essentially re-deliver the car for me: re-buff, detail, etc.

    Do that actually buff the car during pre-delivery? I would think probably not as incorrect buffing leads to swirlmarks.

    I assume they did. I may be wrong.

    Just curious, does the new MK6 GTI has an oil dipstick?
