Polo GTI 2.0T Owners

[mostlyeels]

Hi guys, got my GTI in Reef Blue with the DAP last Saturday and am absolutely loving it! A big upgrade over my previous car in every way (a 2011 manual Mazda 3). The power upgrade alone is addictive, let alone all the creature comforts and how well-made it feels.

Next upgrade: roof racks so I can re-mount my bike carrier. Seems a shame to ruin that nice roofline, but practicality wins out!

Also, paint protection

Remember if you fit the VW Roof racks you can no longer open the sunroof, if you had one fitted.

Thanks. No sunroof luckily, so should be OK.

This same problem happened to me - I know you posted this a while ago, but did you have it resolved?

I had it fixed with a Balance, Alignment, Road force balance and 2 new tyres courtesy of Bridgestone.

Unfortunately it was a bit of a challenge as VW don't cover tyres under warranty and Bridgestone didn't really want to do much with it either - got it done in the end though!

I picked mine up - 1300kms, Lux pack, driver assist, reef blue for $29,900!

Hello fellow owners, hope to post my own pics/vids/findings here (or my own thread) soon-ish.
I have done my mandatory introduction here --> Hello fellow Polo &or VW Nutters!

How are you other owners going, still happy? Any cool stuff you've learnt or done to your Polo GTI 2L!?

For those interested in getting into some mods (minor or major), I found this cool little thread:

Have just purchased my reef blue polo gti+ but am waiting for corona virus to stop to collect car. Does the standard exhaust have a valve in it that changes when put in different modes? As am looking at getting milltek non resonated exhaust but don’t want drone. Or just the res delete pipe and then keep the standard back box with the valve control.
