    Point of order on the Haldex issue... It is very rarely due to "lack of maintenance". I tune these cars daily and most of the ones I come across with rear drive issues have been serviced meticulously. VW don't specify a service interval for cleaning the filter on the pump head and the pump head itself can clog up well before the Haldex service is due. It would be unfair to accuse someone of negligence if simply following the VW service schedule.

      @@Leehuss5582 It's the company that makes variable slip based drivetrain components. For the most part, it's All Wheel Drive systems, but the later MQB cars had a "sports differential" on the front axle that was made by Haldex too.

    Tip for HALDEX: If you do the haldex service and you are still not getting full traction. Try purging the air out of the pump through VCDS.

    Fantastic video! My only point is that thermostat housing issues are widespread on these cars and are very expensive to repair.
    When mine went on my Mk 7 GTI it cost about £950, although that was through a VW dealer though. Apart from the expensive repairs, these cars are fantastic! Keep up the great work.

    Im so happy I got a good deal on a manual 2017 Golf R today. 57k miles on it but has some nice goodies on it with an ecs tune. All the goodies are nice parts like cts and ecs parts. Also got the 18 inch gti wheels instead of the r wheels which look a lot cleaner. Has coilovers as well and rides really nice.

      I’m going to buy a MK7 with 55k on the mileage tomo. £18950 used approved Heritage of Weston VW, 2017 plate, 1 owner.
      I’m abit dubious regarding mileage. Mum thinks it’s abit high? It comes with two years warranty and break down cover that gives some reassurance.
      Just wondering did you experience any immediate issues at or around that mileage upon purchase?
      Also I’m a female going alone (to purchase) is there any questions you can recommend?
      I had an S3 unfortunately had to rid due to coolant issues and dodgy garages/mechanics hence me going used approved now. So I know a little about cars.

      DSG is faster and more useable for daily traffic, but the manual is more fun to drive and cheaper to maintain/service. I'd personally go for the manual

      DSG is better in my opinion for long drives get better mpg. stuck in traffic you dont have to fiddle and keep changing from 1st-2nd every 5mins.
      With DSG its more expensive to service and maintain compared with the manual but for me the DSG was worth it

      No that doesn’t sound dangerous lmao that sounds like VW being a shit manufacturer like they actually are it’s a fact, they care only about lining their pockets not about they’re reputation that’s why their vehicles hold shit for resale value! Only golf R and Audi RS3-4-5-6-7-8 hold their value nothing else.

      The Pretoria rim on the Golf R are super light , just a little over 21 lbs, try to compare that to any 19 inch rim. And lighter rims means faster acceleration, top speed, and better fuel mileage. But with the pros comes with the cons because they're designed so light and the Golf R is quite a heavy car for it's class so the cracking or buckling is more likely to be caused by driver error like encountering curbs or potholes.
