Does anyone know how can one tell if his car is MY15 or MY16? (is there a physical thing? serial number maybe?)

Look for the Sport button on the Dash. Also the MY16 has the Reversing Camera as standed (mounted on the rear number plate).

Thanks mate

Sports mode if great when you want to play.

Whilst the extra torque of the manual is great - I test drove both manual and DSG, there is no way a human can change gears as quick as the DS, and you don't get the amazing DSG fart. Yes there has been issues with DSG's in the past, but that's why you have warranty. Never live life in fear of something going wrong, just get in there and enjoy it and play hard.

I don't think there is one manufacturer that is happy to help out on warranty, but since I have a good relationship with my dealer I'm hoping there would be no issue for any warranty claim. Even though this is my first Dub, I have bought a few Subaru's through my dealer and the same sales person. Fingers crossed that they are helpful eh.

edit: oil change. If you're only doing 100km/week (not sure why you bother owning a car) then you'll only be at 5200 when 1 year comes up so don't bother with an early change

So the fact that i have driven my GTI a total of 34km's in the past 4 weeks must mean i am crazy hey Mind you, our other car has been driven about 400km in that time.

Anyone that have the "Adaptive Dampers" option (Sport button) can explain a bit more about the two modes?

Someone WITHOUT that option will have only 1 mode, which is the more stiff (?) one,

and someone WITH that option will have a comfort mode, when the button is OFF, and a stiff mode (just like the ones who didnt take the option) after the button is ON.

Did I get it correctly?

Would appreciate your feedback

As my car is arriving soon, does anyone know of any places to get Polo cargo liner. OEM part is $123! Ebay only has poor quality liners and some online stores have one-size-hopefully-fit-all liners which requires surgery to fit
