NotNormal, your ride is awesome.  Stock, it looks like mine modded! :laugh: You have the car I wanted to buy, but the only US diesel MKVs that were out at the time was the older 1.9L TDI 100hp/177trq in the Jetta.  Well, I wanted a Golf GT TDI 170 4Motion, but I really like my GTI.  All we get now is the Jetta sedan/Sportwagen TDI 140, FWD only.

Do you have any of your stock GT grille setup by chance?  I might be interested if you feel it's taking up space. :wink:

My guess is judging by the speed he is modding it you wont be able to tell its a golf by next year let alone a GT so he will just have to take them out for a spin.
Sold to the first buyer me thinks.  :laugh: :laugh:

It doesn't look like a GTi BTW, the front red stripe will be different by the end of next week/weekend! As will afew other touches ..... it'll std out for sure !  :happy2:

And i have all the origional parts stored ready to swap back should i want to sell it. But TBH, the misses will be getting it after i've clocked several thou up.....18500 in 6 months so far  :grin:

LOL - no point hangin' about ehhh !  :rolleye:

The Revo map is very strong, drives well and returns good fuel econ when needed.

Afew niggles, not really, only 3 small issues. These are being resolved currently. BUt in answer to your question, no, nothing worth noting at all.
Where'd you here about the afore mentioned issues ?

Nope, not one light on the dash.
Checked regularly on VAG COM also, and nothing there either.

im still undecided about either really. it needs to be switchable.

i have heard good and bad things about both companies obviously. but ive had a chipped uk map on my anni and think its great
