MK7 GTi is a car that I'm thinking of getting in the future when I have the money to buy one which would mean I would need a job. Well good thing I'll be getting my license later this year or next year depends on you know what.
My youngest son always wanted a manual transmission golf gti. His first car was a manual golf mk6. But he had his eyes on the gti. So he paid off his mk6 and traded up for the gti. He works for it but man dies he love it. He's got a 2018 GTI pearl paint. Not bad for a 21 year old.
Hey guys I'm looking into getting a used mk7 gti in a few months and I'm new to VWs, anything I should watch out for before pulling the trigger on one?
honestly regular stuff when buying a car, ensure there's no bad turbo from the 2015 GTIs. it was brand new to US, SOME had this issue. you will love the GTI, trust me
Honestly not much to look for . If you have a sun roof drive it around first and listen for sounds because it rattles in some of the cars. If you’re buying from somewhere other than a certified pre owned model at a VW dealership make sure to ask about coolant leaks and if it’s had any because it’s a common problem. I’ve had mine for 3 months and I’ve already done some small mods to it and added new rims (A necessity because the stock rims are hideous) and I’m absolutely in love. Drives perfectly and has a luxurious interior
i bought a used 2015 gti last year. have not had any issues. just maintain it. Also i am on stage 1 performance tune, borla exhaust, intake and BOV. car is very fun to drive.
Lucas great videos man keep it up! I’m thinking of getting a aftermarket filter I’ve seen some kits come with silicon inlet tubes as well does that actually help at all/are they worth it?
IMO generally doesn’t help with anything performance. It might help make your current power “cleaner” but that’s a reach Honestly just get a JB4 or tune if you haven’t done that first
Quick qn. When buying from AliExpress, say forexample Headlights. Is the item a single (1) item for both pairs or you must purchase (2)? How do they differentiate right from left Headlights?
DSG more efficient and shifts faster . It’s not as fun as a manual but it’s so much easier especially in traffic. You can always use the paddle shifters which don’t compare to stick but it’s more satisfying than just a normal automatic
Cray-Z PR manual, i dont see the point of buying a cool car but letting it shift by itself. Also manual transmission will be much cheaper and easier to fix in the long run
Dylan Mozdzier lol why ? Whats this thinking that smaller interval means better care ? The manufacturer that engineered this car tells you 10k. Who are you to say any better lmao youre just wasting money
I think I'll stick to an engineers recommendation. From what I've researched, unless your car is driven under severe conditions ie race car, taxi driver, there really is no need. Any works cited that says smaller interval is better plz post.
Word of advice: If you’re going to make these type of videos, don’t include used prices. You can easily buy a used downpipe for under $100 and a used turbo for under $400, but that doesn’t mean they should be included in these categories 🙂
Sonny Soto it currently does as beta test - got one for my sons 2016 Gti (I also use it for my 2000 Audi S4 Avant) and no problems or issues have been incurred thus far.
I think we started a thing! Like the smash button!
Say less, merch coming soon lol
Lucas we have to trademark asap
Important note: check engine light must be on.
Funny
I liked, I subscribed, my car feels faster now with the +10hp 👊
Just got my first GTI (7.5) this is exactly the help I need - SUBSCRIBED!
Cannot wait for the next two parts to come out!
YES metal oil pan....... I cracked mine, and it caused metal to get into oil I suppose and my GTI is currently getting the engine replaced
I love/appreciate the honesty at 0:43 😂🤣😂👍👍👍
The most honest gti owner
One of the best mod you can get especially for Gti is a Check Engine Light, I’m pretty sure Gti owners are rocking this on their dash.
At 55k miles at apr stage 2 and still no check engine light🤷🏼♂️
Dude prob never used a gti, never had check engine light
Been 2 years now owning a 2014 163kw,still havent seen
Yo dog keep up the fire content
Just got the Xforce Exhaust
Glad we found your channel 😁 subscribed 👍🏽

I got mine a few months ago and I love it! Even stock it’s still a great car to drive, I haven’t done any modifications to it yet though

Next video "top mods under $7.37"
That's 2 gallons of 93 gas
DSG or Manual ? Idk which one to pick🙃
DSG
DSG more efficient and shifts faster . It’s not as fun as a manual but it’s so much easier especially in traffic. You can always use the paddle shifters which don’t compare to stick but it’s more satisfying than just a normal automatic
Cray-Z PR defiantly dsg, protects your car because it shifts when you need too before fucking up the car
Cray-Z PR manual, i dont see the point of buying a cool car but letting it shift by itself. Also manual transmission will be much cheaper and easier to fix in the long run
YUNG BG yea, I’m leaning towards manual, thanks
Wondering where i should buy, from Canada.
Oooo thank you sm 👏🏾🙏🏾
2018 golf R has a fake leather steering wheel? I’m pretty sure that is false.
Every 5000? Manual says every 10k for oil change
5k if you have a little extra care
Dylan Mozdzier lol why ? Whats this thinking that smaller interval means better care ? The manufacturer that engineered this car tells you 10k. Who are you to say any better lmao youre just wasting money
Change it every 5k. The oil gets dirty by then regardless of what vw says.
Manufacture wants you to buy new cars. Not maintaining them
I think I'll stick to an engineers recommendation. From what I've researched, unless your car is driven under severe conditions ie race car, taxi driver, there really is no need. Any works cited that says smaller interval is better plz post.
Name of song
Nice mods bro new subscriber! Cheers from Mexico City. 👍🏻
Does the obdeleven work on the 2015 golf tsi s?
Do you think if I just went to my garage and showed them a picture of a modded car would they do it ?

👍 glad I could help
best mod for all vws is a piece of black electrical tape to cover up the check engine light, ez fix for +5 hp

I dont think you can buy a real alcantara wrap for under $100? At least $150?
It's def not real alcantara lol
I think it is called Suede in that case
What sucks is OBD 11 isn't supporting iPhone :///
