Wheel Question, Nav Update, misc questions
« on: July 23, 2012, 12:44:54 pm »
Hey all,
first post, but I have been lurking for quite a while and this seems like a cool place :)

I've just bought a 2005 mk5 GTi DSG and have a few questions (picked it up cheap since the seller couldn't answer these questions).

Just had a major service and the tech advised me that the wheels (pic below) aren't the standard ones. Now he's mentioned it, it is bloody obvious!

- Would these be a nightmare to get refurb'd? All of the wheels are in pretty diar condition but I'm hoping they could be restored.
- Does anyone have a rough idea how much these wheels would have cost new vs. the standard 18s? (i.e. is it worth getting them repaired, or should I just get some standard)

Also, is there an easy way of updating the navigation? (Mine's the one where the CD always has to be loaded).

Thanks all :)
Paul
