I have added the wireless charging mat and all work well. I also stuck the dongle to the ‘roof’ of the cubby using double sided tape and it’s invisible now.
Ordered from VW central! $199 well spent. Thank you.
Hi all. I’m trying to find out if I can connect wirelessly to Apple CarPlay in my 2020 R. I’m currently using a 20cm cable. The book says it must be connected by a cable but it would be much easier...

I just got the aluminium ones from VWCentral. $55 and they’re fine.
My 7.5 R does apply brake on certain cornering. The ACC works perfectly and seems to brake fine behind stationary vehicles.
What I’ve noticed though is Autonomous Emergency Braking doesn’t seem to...
My brand new Elsema 201 doesn’t work from the door pocket of the 7.5 R. The 35 year old cigarette pack sized one does. I then tried the new one on the right side wall of the 4Motion cubby in front of...
It’s hard wired with a Power Magic Pro. The problem is it continues to record in park mode when I’ve supposedly disabled it. This also means it only records for a couple of hours before the voltage...
Nice! Any particular tape?
On a seperate note I have the 2 channel 750 S cameras and despite switching off parking mode it still continues to record and draw down my battery. I’ve done all the...
Hi, I ordered a one channel Double Apex integrated garage door controller for my 7.5 R. DA emailed to say it’s not compatible with my controller so cancelled the order and refunded me. My controller...
Hi all, I’m looking for a discreet front and rear dashcam for the R. I have found the Blackvue DR750X and was wondering if people have experience with this model or other recommendations? And any...
Thanks all for your responses! I have decided the car is understated enough, particularly in Indium Grey so I’m leaving it as is.
Cheers! She who must be disobeyed would prefer it was kept stock:nono::nono::nono:
Until the pandemic I left my 2011 GTD in a garage for up to six months a year whilst working overseas. I lowered the tyre pressure and put it on a trickle charger from Bunnings. Nil problems. My...
Of course! I guess I mean stealthy to the uninitiated...
Hey Guys,
I’m still very happy with my GTD at 105K and have just done the timing belt and water pump.
I’m in the process of getting an Indium Grey R 7.5 which I should have in the new year.
For...
I have a 2011 MK6 MY12 GTD. I recently bought some LED puddle lights that are meant to replace the red reflector at the bottom of the front doors. The problem is there is no wiring harness there...
seen a couple of nice bugs near Lonny too
FYI my car is a 2011 MY12 and the iphone 5 worked straight away with MDI and never had any problems. I know this doesn't solve your problem but thought you might like to know. best of luck
Finally got the rattle sorted out! It appears the problem was the oil filler cap which was not seated correctly. It was replaced under warranty and everything sounds normal which is great as it been...
Ok, put car in for 30K service and went for a roadtest with the mechanic afterwards. The noise predictably subsided but luckily picked up enough for the mechanic to say it was audible and unusual so...
Relax! my GTD sits anywhere between 95 and 105 on normal highway driving depending on weather and some driving conditions. On spirited hills driving I have seen 116C but the engine temperature has...
Hi Guys
Just wondering if any other MK6 GTD owners ever get an odd noise from their turbo. I reckon mine sounds a bit clattery when easing off accelarator as though something is out of alignment....
Hi Guys, It was bound to happen sooner or later but luckily it took 17 months which reduces the pain somewhat. Noticed a little bit of kerb rash on the front spoiler just under the foglight. I didn't...
I had a similar but not identical problem with my MK6 GTD. It was impossible to activate the phone from either the touchscreen or the button on the steering wheel and the telephone had disappeared...
