New model is still a long way off while ever the variants and limited editions keep coming.

There's plenty on ebay if you look for genuine sellers and good feedback - plus you have 30 days returns on most things if they are duds.
I got my RCD510 from ebay from someone with good feedback -...

Why not just get a 2nd hand replacement but genuine head unit? They are pretty affordable.

Anyone tried the Genuine VW running boards? The Highlines up come with tubes and step treads and new highline 580 black comes with tubes (no steps), but you can option the flat running boards. Anyone...

I've got a Rosstech though to be honest the only thing I've done is reprogram the head unit to accept a genuine VW reverse camera after I put in an RCD510 and camera in my 2012. VW dealer said it...

Looks really good, thanks for the detailed response. Yeah the extra space is what I'm looking at, my hardcover is water tight and almost dustproof, but the kids have sooo much stuff when we go away....

Hows the visibility out the rear window and sides with the canopy?
I have a hard cover on mine but thinking of switching to a canopy, main concern is losing the great rear visibility.
Also can you...

"All your connections for the 7 pin"... There's only 2 connections.
1) The brake sense between euro plug and 7pin - Vehicle doesnt detect this in its electrical system. Signal only sent to...

Hillbilly, Apologies if it sounded like I used a single-use blade fuse, definitely not. Let me explain but stress that if you are unsure what you're doing get an autoelec to install for you.

Prodigy P2, takes power from battery (fused), brake sense from trailer plug. Doesn't interfere with canbus & vehicle elec. system.

Here's the latest news I've seen to keep us interested while they tinker on the new utes.
VW boss says he's already driven the new utes and is really impressed!

“I just drove last week the...

Ok here's a review at slower speeds talking about cornering - no mention of tyres though.
I'm really interested to know if other V6 owners have noticed understeer in the wet etc as I'm considering...

Not sure if this helps, but there is some mention of understeer with the 4motion during a track test
Volkswagen Amarok Nurburgring review - Autoblog

Latest Update in the News.
VW are excited about partnering with Ford.
Unfortunately they have no clue whats happening and no input on the next gen Amarok. But they are excited...
Volkswagen...

Note: The 580 highline also has the colour multifunction display and 19 rims.
I'd wait till later this year as the Amarok is supposed to be getting some driver aids I was told by my local dealer..
...

Agree, I'm just shy of 6 foot and find enough leg room in back of my Amarok plus more than wide enough for 3 adults. Rear facing car seat slots in back-middle seat no problem, still good front seat...

The new car needs to be a commercial so the Touareg isn't an option :-(

Sharkie, I whole-heartedly agree the amarok drives far and away better than anything else on the market.
I also agree driver aids make driver lazy and complacent - i dont need to look AEB will stop...

Ute's are no longer just tradie vehicles, they are suv crossovers for families. Look at all the tech and safety in the latest ranger, it's marketed at comfort for family and daily driving not to haul...

With all the media information out there here's what I read. VW has already developed the tech and safety but decided not to put these in the car. They just don't want to - they don't care about our...

I really don't know what to believe. VW has said numerous times they have the tech and are working on or looking at airbags for the Amarok. They've said they will put them in the amarok before they...
