Following the UK link Sekas provided in Post 2281, there seems to be lots of posts about turbo issues with the Mk 7 Golf R with people vowing not to modify the engines of the R with "known" turbo issues.
I haven't heard of any turbo issues in Australia, has anyone else?
^ No known R turbo issues in Oz to date. I have read about this on a number of forums and it is theorised that there was possibly a faulty Euro batch. (NB. my take on the Poms is that many are ++risk averse re warranty implications and wouldn't consider tuning in any case so the "turbo" issue gives them an out). So nothing to worry about at this stage IMO.
Not sure if this is R-specific but it is to me.
Does anyone else have the rear seatbelts flap around making a horrible noise with the front windows down?
Thinking I might have to do them up just to stop the noise, never had it in any other BMW, Holden, Kia, Mitsubishi kr Toyota I have owned.
