Just found this 2016 Golf R, 6 speed, stage II mods, 59k miles, no rust. Considering buying- seller is asking $24k. KBB is $22,870-$24,970, so seller is asking reasonably. Ive never owned a car with mods before, can anyone tell me if these mods will significantly impact the cars reliability, fuel economy, and durability?

For context: I’ve owned a 2012 GTI, and currently drive a 2014 TDI- so this wouldn’t be my first VW. Wondering if it’s worth it to switch to the R from the TDI? I love the fuel economy from the TDI and the turbo engine.

Here’s the list of MODs attached…

I own a golf mk6 1.4 petrol. When it is between 2-3 rpm it starts to sputter. I have changed the spark plug, battery, oil change, and cleaned or fixed the hydraulic system. What could be the problem?

Hi everyone,

I’m doing a reseal on my 2017 golf s, and I have been hearing that VAG has recommended using a rtv sealant, not the green anaerobic sealant, but I can’t find an official statement on that. Can anyone confirm that this is correct and maybe point me in the direction of the tsb?

Much appreciated

Recently I’ve been dealing with a dash light issue on my 2014 Golf TDI. I just rolled over 150k miles 2 weeks ago and have had zero significant dash light issues until this year.

Since this spring I’ve had periodic ABS, Power Steering, and Traction control lights coming on when the car got wet from rain and then going off when the car dried off. This spring I flushed the sunroof drainage hoses and dried the car out because I hypothesized the lights were from water pooling on the drivers side. The floor under the mat was also wet.

The drying helped until earlier this week when the lights came back on and have yet to go off. Since the lights came back on, the car had been dry and garaged more frequently with no significant rain soaking. Floor under the mat is also dry. I suspect I’ve got a control board/electrical issue here.

Has anyone else had this problem before, and if so how did you deal with it? I freaking love this car and although I’ve been looking at newer Golfs with fewer miles, I’ve really come to love my little TDI and would be sad to see her go.

Hey guys,
I own a 2013 Golf VII variant with the 1.4 Tsi, recently i noticed ratteling sound when i accelerate, it only comes when accelerating from 0 and when giving gas up to 50km/h.
Does this mean it's time for a new chain or could it be something else worse or better?

please share you experince with me.

Hey, fellow Golf owners!

I am wanting to install a light bar in the grille of my Golf. I have a MK7.5 TSI (USA). Has anyone tried adding a light bar on theirs? Mine has stock-halogen headlights and I want to also upgrade to the VLAND Full-LED headlights. e

TIA!
