Mine is Dsg and no problems at all, the car is a totally different animal when Revo'd,
Just have to be gentle on the gas pedal in this weather,
DSG soooo smooth  :happy2:

Dragging up an old thread but is the car on standard set up? Did you opt for the ACC?

Has to be one the best looking GTIs ever :happy2:
Do the LEDs give you a warning when the bulb is out? 2011 MYs are getting it standard I hear.

I'm not a great fan of the Mk6 but they do cosmetically improve hugely when modified (thinking of SteveP's as well).

Your red one is looking very good. :happy2:

Thanx for all the kind remarks, it shows several bulb out warning lights but a quick tick on vagcom sorts it out  :smiley:
The standard rear lights on the MY11s are the cherry red leds i think not the darkened R rears :wink:
