Has any experienced when their R is in stop start mode to have a warning ‘engine needs to be started manually’ display.?
Then have to put the car in Park and start engine again? It’s happened twice this month.

You know what, I've discovered this is exactly the reason! Each time I restart car burbles gone, reswitch from race --> individual (or back to race) or vice versa and burbles come back!
What is mechanism creating burbles, is there any exhaust valve actuation going on or purely ECU putting more fuel out the back? Considering speaking to dealer as to whether this is fixable and what might be causing this inconsistency?

Burbles are simply the result of ECU initiated over fueling whilst the throttle is in the closed position. Think of them as tiny backfires, just taking place in the the cylinders and not in your exhaust system (thankfully). IMHO, I still think it's linked to (a normal) operating temperature, and that'd be the oil, not the water. If anyone's been watching their oil temp, they'll know it trails the water by a good few minutes in reaching it's plateau. Is everyone changing their drive mode at the beginning of their drive, as soon as they've realised their overrun music is missing. If so, of course, this corresponds with a near-cold engine block.Quote:

I took it in when there was 1 single line, some shady dealer was like "Nah, the screens are meant to be like that, it's just how they are in the new Golf R's" to which I instructed him to go look at a new R on the showroom floor and he came back a little sheepish.
Then, had to take the car in a second time so they could simply "take a photo of it to send to VW". At that time there were 2 lines.
Fast forward to now and there are 4 of the little ****ers
Yep. http://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/foru...df84868c-1.jpgQuote:

When I dropped my car off this morning the dealer informed me that it seems to be a common problem occurring with the screens. It's a hardware fault that they'll repair by replacing the head unit. If it bothers you, just take it into your dealerQuote:

I noticed this issue when I picked up my car.
So basically, when you're in Race Mode (or individual mode set to race exhaust sound), the valves will open, creating the burbling sound.
When you turn the car off the valves close. When you turn the car back on again later on, you are still in Race Mode (or individual) BUT the valves do NOT open. Every time you start your car, you need to switch back to Normal, and then back to Race. Every single time you turn the car on. This will fix it.
This a well known issue with the hatch. Which is why I bought a wagon :)
Plus the wagon looks better imo
The extra room is awesome to swallows heaps of golf crap every weekend with room to spare
