DSG questions
Mako V12V:
Thanks for all your comments chaps and time taken to reply. :happy2:
I've spent nearly two weeks solid trawling through the internet looking for a Ed 30 in white, 3dr and manual with no success. I've just today driven a dsg version and like it. So i'm thinking go for a dsg instead as there's more around.
Two hours after my dsg test drive i've now found a manual version what i've been looking for....aaaargh!
I hear what everyone is saying on here and understand the comments, so, do i now turn down the manual and wait for a white dsg or go with my original plan????????
I guess i need to drive the manual and then decide!
Btw, as an aside - SUNROOF in an Ed 30 - excellant extra or does it make the car look naff and will cause problems down the line??
Thanks as ever - Phil

Only you can decide, Phil, but I find a sunroof useful for ventilation and often just have the back lifted up a fraction.
Full sunshine roof open on a Summer's night cruising the towns of Northern Italy with the stars above :notworthy:

Cheers RR. From your sig I notice yours has a sunroof. Any problems with seals, mechanism, rattles etc?

....No problems whatsoever since new 4 years ago.
Once you go over a certain speed with the roof fully open you need to drop all the windows an inch so that air pressure is released, otherwise it zaps your ears in waves.
The GTI dashboard generally gets rattles 'n squeaks which come and go. They seem to be temperature related but once you're focussed on driving you don't hear them. I'm not fussed about such things but some people are.
