Hi mate any chance you could let me know this contact on the southside also please? I need to get same thing done for my GT Sport. Front & rear brakes and need a new ignition switch. I was quoted...
Hi all,
OK, first off I need to make it blatantly clear that I am the biggest rookie when it comes to doing car mods myself. I successfully managed to change the head unit in my old Magna however...
My GT Sport MY08. Completely stock. Paints in good condition considering the cars age!...
Hey mate, I drive an '08 Golf GT Sport running the 125kw 1.4L tsi engine. Although it has a few extra kw over the 118 tsi engine it lists the same 7.7L/100km average fuel consumption. I can confirm...
Nice pick up mate, looks great! Only suggestion would be to lower it a little bit :cool: Love your plans though, keeping the licence is always good.
How do you find the Golf's performance compared to your previous Silvia's? I searched long and hard before going with a Golf and had seriously considered an older jap hot 4 of some sort, the Silvia's...
Hi Pierre,
Sounds like the perfect car for the kids :P Welcome to the forums!
Hi Tim, welcome. Would love to chat to you down the track about my GT and doing some mods :) sound like you're in the know!
Welcome to Watercooled!
Hi Daniel,
Quite a few of us on here from Brisbane (I'm also reasonably new to the forums)! What VW have you got yourself? Welcome to Watercooled.
I love the look of MKVs... they are the best looking model when sitting next to both their older and younger siblings.
In particular I love the performance of my GT Sport coupled with the fuel...
My. dear. god.
I love this thread and I love your car. I have a GT TSI in black so looks the same as yours more or less... hadn't really thought of changing it much from stock but seeing how much...
I would definitely make sure the car is checked by a mechanic before buying. For that price, there is a good chance that there are a few things that would need to be done within 6 months of...

Thanks mate :) I see you are from Gold Coast... are you per chance selling a similar Black GT Sport at the moment? There is one going on Gumtree with 150xxx kms for about $10k I believe.

Hi all,
I get the exact same sound described by all of you, in particular by Boon. Basically, a rattling noise will develop after I have run the A/C for around 5 mins. Even if I turn the A/C off it...
Hi mate,
I've experienced a similar issue with my Golf GT Sport my08 (albeit mine has only done 96,000km). It seems that the noise my engine is generating is more limited to using the air...
I can't actually answer this off the top of my head. Will check my car when i get home from work and let you know. I have a MKV Golf GT. What are you driving?
Just a quick update - it looks like I just need a new ignition switch and that will sort out the length of time it takes for ignition sometimes. Other than that all seems to be good. Thanks all for...
Model: Golf GT Sport
Engine: 1.4 TSI 125kw
Year: 2007 MY08
Positives
- some real grunt for a cheaper version of the GTI
- great fuel consumption (average 700-750km city driving)
- good long...
Ok thanks for the info. Going to get some diagnostics run on it this weekend which should hopefully identify if/where the issue is occurring. Hoping that there's nothing wrong and its just the cold...
I've had a few people tell me this now which is certainly making me less concerned. And can see quite a few videos on Youtube demonstrating the same thing. My only concern now is just the delay on...
