Golf R Observations and Questions

[AdamD]

Meaning that the individual control at the front passenger door, and rear passenger doors, don't have one-touch.
The statement in the specs is the same on all MK6 brochures that I have saved. So I don't think that there is any change here or mistake here (but I don't have a MK6 in my garage yet, so someone else will have to confirm).

All buttons for the driver are one-touch. The passenger button is one-touch. I haven't used the rears myself and so can't comment on those.

(This is for a MkVI GTI.)

Thanks for checking AdamD

If you really don't believe me I can make a video.....

[Corey_R]

No - I believe you. Your post said for both front windows, which we know, but the spec is talking about the controls, not the windows. Either way, the spec is wrong.

Whats the deal with Satnav?? Are we getting this badboy as a standard or wishful thinking??

[Corey_R]

SatNav is not standard.

Hey guys,

Just wondering if it is possible to fit the Recaro seats after the car has already been purchased.

My current situation: I dont see a current need for these sport seats, however I may change my mind down the track. Can I then take them to VW and get them fitted?

Thanks

I believe this would void your insurance as you are removing the factory provided airbags and thus reducing the safety of your vehicle.

You would also have to install resistors in the wiring to stop the airbag fault showing up on the dash.

It probably could be done but i don't think it is worth it.
An independant service provider would probably be more likely to do it than VW would.

You cannot buy them afterwards anyway. There's a thread on the topic here.

You could source a set from a write off maybe????

No doubt some hero will push their's too far thinking that 4Mo = 100% control all the time and total an R (maybe an S3) with recaro's.
