Title: Picked up my ED30 last week
Post by: Rholtby on June 17, 2015, 03:17:51 pm

  :smiley:

So I went and picked up my Red Edition 30 last week and have fell in love with it. It needed a new rear light so that was ordered before I picked up the car and got fitted the day I got it home.

Then a three and a half hour cleaning left her all shiny

Nice one! I was looking at this car on Auto trader a couple of weeks ago and was disappointed to call them and be told is was gone, but I found another one so all is good!

Hope you enjoy!

Thanks guys.

The first thing I think I'm going to do is get the rear windows tinted to factory tint, anyone know what percentage this is?

Yeah it popped up without any pictures so I got in there early  :happy2:

Thanks,

I've not got any major plans yet just a few little cosmetics for now.

I've had a little read about and can see I need to get my DSG serviced as a first priority as the cars at 44,000 with no DSG service.

Is there any thing else I need get done or would be worth replacing to prevent problems occurring?

Thanks for the list and I'm guessing those are the VW part numbers, thanks. I'll give it a couple of weeks and see about doing or getting bits done

TPS are generally reasonably priced and they are genuine VW
