Golf R Observations and Questions

Does anyone read German ?

Just curious what the sticker says. I assume it is something like "this **** gets hot". You should be able to zoom in on the sticker to see the text

Never mind. Someone on another forum suggested Google translate

Engine date I assume of 13 May 2011 at 9.56 am ? Car build date completion was late June 2011 so seems about right.

Edit - sort of makes sense and as expected, of no value

Attention ! For all audit and adjustments

Community Service Announcement

Double Demerit Points kick in tonight - time to detune the right foot folks

[Ryan_R]

They can do that? I presume it's NSW only.

Is it permanent or just for the holiday break?

2 weeks IIRC. It happens several times a year during peak travel holiday periods. We've been doing it for years. Double demerits, not double dollars.

Case of coldies for the mechanics, one for the service manager and a bottle of champers.

Gotta look after them

Great bunch of guys.

Who's your dealer?

I did the same for my old mechanic, but have yet to find a dealership where I have got that level of relationship.

Bill Buckle.

They have been very good to me so far.

Another observation, post stage 1 tune it takes a month before the fuel economy returns ( if thats what you want to call it) cant be sure if this is the taming if the right foot or the car has re calibrated.. happy to take other observations

Hey all,

its been ages since I was on this site. Anyway still loving my UG 2010 Golf R. Had it since late Jan and its clocked up about 20,000k's without any major dramas *touch wood* apart from stuffing a set of front tyres on a massive 6 foot or so wide pothole that the bloody council left after doing some roadworks.

Today was one minor drama. My 4 yr old nephew was in the middle of back seat with my daughters on the way to the beach and he decides to put down the rear cup holder and practice his football skills on it. Anyway the door to the holder snapped out and broke off the little catch that holds one side in. Needless to say I was pissed, but what can ya do lol. Luckily I managed to find the small bit that was broken off and super glue it back on when I got home. It was bent on the join in the plastic so its still kinda wonky but hopefully its enough to hold it in place. . Add to that I caught him swinging on the rear door handle and about to pull down on the rear wiper as well. I needed the patience of a saint today I swear. Ah kids ya gotta love em o_O. LOL!

Anway it might seem minor but to us fans who LOVE our cars its enough to make ya cry sometimes! )
