#1510 of 1593 Re: GTI 2008 price? [blueguydotcom] by sidds1601 Jul 16, 2008 (5:45 am)
Replying to: blueguydotcom (Jul 14, 2008 9:28 pm) What do you mean by essentially giving them away? You mean below or at invoice? I need ur help man...Anybody knows if anyone got to buy it below invoice? Also I heard that moonroof retain their full value even after a couple of years when you go sell the car...what do u guys think? Replies to this message: blueguydotcom (Jul 16, 2008 9:00 pm)

Replying to: sidds1601 (Jul 16, 2008 5:45 am) I mean 0% interest for 60 months and at or near invoice is pretty much giving the car away.   I have no idea what the resale is like though.
#1512 of 1593 Bluetooth by rv65 Jul 30, 2008 (2:09 pm)
2009 models get an option bluetooth kit. However you can have it installed at the dealer. Part number for this kit is 1K0 051 437. Has to be installed at the dealer for now. Takes about 1 to 2 hours to install this thing depending on the tech installing it. The kit provides all the useful bluetooth features and the MFD gets the hidden telephone menu. Should cost about 300 to 350 USD minus installation. Replies to this message: clayh (Jul 30, 2008 4:46 pm) rv65 (Jul 30, 2008 7:32 pm)

Replying to: rv65 (Jul 30, 2008 2:09 pm) Parrott makes the kit, you can find it on line for about $249.00 (what I paid 6 months ago). Took my dealer less than an hour, but is partly since I'm happy with the microphone sitting in the crevice behind steering wheel. Basically a plug and go item. If you want, that is a good time to upgrade. I had the dealer take the plastic trim off, then had it sprayed at a local shop. Also ordered the tray insert for the dash.   URL=http://profile.imageshack.us/user/callmeclay]callmeclay[/URL] at 2008-07-30 Replies to this message: rv65 (Jul 30, 2008 7:32 pm)
#1514 of 1593 It's not oem? by blueguydotcom Jul 30, 2008 (6:29 pm)
Really, how tacky of VW. They offer BT in europe, so why not a real BT option here? Replies to this message: rv65 (Jul 30, 2008 7:35 pm)

Replying to: clayh (Jul 30, 2008 4:46 pm) This is not the parrot kit. This is the new OEM kit that is just starting to come into dealers. The parrot kit doesn't have the telephone menu that requires programming.

Replying to: blueguydotcom (Jul 30, 2008 6:29 pm) I just mentioned this new kit. 1K0 051 437 is the part number for it. This is the new USA bluetooth kit that is made by Nokia or some other company. Some people just don't get that a new USA kit is coming out. You could also use the European part number 1Z0 035 729 but thats way too expensive. They also have an even more expensive and not as compatible premium kit which acts like a cell phone. Uses the rSAP profile on certain cell phones and works like an in car cell phone. It can only work in Europe though since it only runs on 900/1900 MHz which T-Mobile and AT&T don't use. The premium bluetooth does have HFP and some really interesting bluetooth profiles. Hope this helps.
#1517 of 1593 GTI maintenance by bc6152 Jul 31, 2008 (7:24 am)
My son has a 2007 GTI. One of the taillight bulbs burned out and he was charged over $30.00 to CHANGE THE BULB! I was apalled at the charge and want to know how to open the light and switch the bulb out. Additionally, he tried to check the air filter but couldn't find it. Any help for this young man?

Replying to: bc6152 (Jul 31, 2008 7:24 am) That is funny, I just overheard a conversation at a service station this morning of someone asking to have a rear light bulb replaced. Quote was about 20 minutes and $35 or something like that, so it looks like that is not unusual.   Your son should crack open the Owner's Manual, which would have saved him some money and learn about basic maintenance.

Replying to: jb_shin (Jul 31, 2008 11:29 am) Owner's manual always first, secondly, 'google', third is to buy, used if possible, Chiltern's manual. They always pay for themselves.
