  • When I got the car, I really thought it would be cool to have the extended paddles for the DSG gearbox. I got these off Amazon for $25. They were super easy to install in the GTI with only the removal of a couple pins and proper placement. Definitely adds a nice feel to the steering wheel and provides a nice response when shifting through gears.

    I just learned after a couple weeks of having the car it has a shift mode.
    I appreciate this showing me something I didn’t know.

    Just got a 2017 red gti with dsg with only 6,950 miles on it and I just ordered the same paddle shifters but in red I can’t wait to start having fun with this car there’s so many options to make your gti unique and yours I love it golfs and the whole nostalgia with them and the vw company!

    Silver is definitely the way to go for a nice pop in contrast. It also matches the other subtle trim pieces. If you have the money to spend the s2t paddles are absolutely amazing otherwise the Amazon special is a great option. Either way a solid upgrade with an easy install!

    Oooof that tire spin always scares me on mine because I hate when I see my rpms go to red line. I always try to shift at 5.5 if I really really want to go

      Yea that's where I got mine. They were accommodating and overall had a good experience. Typical car dealership stuff in financing trying to get you the add ons but nothing really out of the ordinary!

      Theres really not exhaust crackles without a proper down pipe or muffler delete. The GTI is a very refined car.
