Talking of goodies, my R centre caps arrived today (along with air caps and R key ring- all good quality btw, thanks for the Aliexpress tip Jonoz)- anyone know the best way to change them over?

Hey, has anyone posted anything from the latest Motor Magazine Australia? The article is on best bang for your buck performance cars from $50 - $100k, and the Golf R is in the top 21, then top 8, but I won't spoil it for you beyond that. Trying to work out how to post photos... Hopefully soon.

Can you tell us what they did? I have the same issue. Took it in last week, road tested with one of their crew and they heard the noise. Had it for a few hours and called me to tell me some clips were broken or missing and that some hose was loose and that was causing the noise. They fixed it up and said the noise was gone... drove out of the lot and still have the noise... anyone able to help out?

Hey everyone, I've had a vibration noise coming out of my golf for a while and they finally fixed. Said it was a loose/rattling fuel line that would vibrate in low revs as I was decelerating/braking so they insulated all around it and finally that stupid vibration noise is gone!!! Sounded to me like it was in the door but was in the chassis below me. Anyways, if anyone here still has the noise I had, get it checked out and should be an easy fix
