Hi,

Had this problem myself - it's the bumper alignment that's out - it's probably been whacked on one side at some point.

Google the rear bumper removal and reposition the brackets on the side of the car and you should be able to sort it - took about an hour.

Would raising the bump stops help?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
