    loaded a 176cm flat packed shelving unit into the car with several bags of mulch and pots. i love doing that at bunnings. the looks on the faces of people loading up their suvs are priceless and she'll still go like a rocket too.

    Understand may not be to everyone's taste; although they are functional for my needs.. Thule aero bars and Thule BA 594 (side arm, downhill bike carrier). Due to my bike frame its the only one that fits!

    Booked mine in for a service, and was informed that it's due for a 60k major! $950ish at Essendon VW! Argh. The new(er) car learning curve just got steeper. Previous owner mentioned nothing about this of course, even when I asked him specifically. Anyone know if I have any other options here or do I just bite the bullet? I've got the 3 year extended warranty and I understand that dealer servicing is a condition.

    I think it would take more than roof racks to spoil the looks of an R32

    Sorry this is in the wrong place .... but

    Just do it, amortise the $$ and it isnt too bad.

    Also ring another dealer for a comparable price

    Visited Harding Performance in Brisbane and had the stage 1 APR tune loaded. Couldn't help myself after having the trial.

    Much more responsive - just the way it should have been from the factory.

    got a torque arm insert from guy at hp. interesting place you have guy and top notch service too. i'm thrilled to bits with the insert. she drives much more like she did from the factory and axle tramp is pretty much gone. well worth it. your other half might whinge about the vibration though and it can get a bit juddery right on idle but it's worth it for how crisp it makes the drive train feel.
