| I lied,,, I went through carsdirect.com | |
| I heard from a friend that a GLS Turbo (not diesel) should be coming out this spring. 150hp, basically the same engine as the Passat. Has anyone else heard anything like this?? | |
|
Old news. The 1.8T is definitely coming, Feb-March timeframe should be about right. It will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show in about 2 weeks.. may possibly be at the LA show as well. -kc- |

When I purchased my 2000 GTI GLX back in November, I opted to wait on installing a sunroof wind deflector. I wanted to drive the car a bit to see if the small factory pop up deflector would suffice without having to clip on a larger version. Does anyone have any advice or opinions/ideas as to the pros/cons of installing an add-on unit? The last thing that I want to do is to spoil the look of the car or add additional wind noise. |

Alanforrest, I scribbled your double. Bear in mind that users can always scribble or hide their *own* notes. To do so, click on the post number, such as #69 above, and follow the prompts.

Dear Alanforrrest, I installed an air deflector on my sun roof. It reduces noise a lot, a lot...less than factory pop up; Moreover, without the air deflector on the roof likes a man without hat. Go ahead, buy a sun roof air deflector and you won't regret. |

after gettin my 10,000 oil change and tire rotation on my 99 gti, i was told that i did not need another oil change till 20,000 miles which seemed like a long time. i always thought that you should change your oil at least every 5000 miles can anyone comment on this? |

| I'm planning to change my oil every 2,500 miles or so. It's only $20 and it can't hurt. 10,000 mile intervals are too long, especially if you want to keep the car for a while. | |
| After looking on my own for a VW GTI GLS '00 in the Central Florida area I was told by a local dealer that there were only 16 in the state. I went through CarOrder.com and within 3 weeks they located the GTI I wanted in Tampa and are shipping it to me. My question...just how hard are the GTI GLS's to find? I recently logged onto CarOrder.com and they are no longer offering the GLS and I noticed their price for a GLX has gone up to MSRP. | |
|
I *hope* the GTI GLS you just found is a 1.8T and not the wheezy 2.0 motor?? The 2.0 is now being dropped and anything incoming will be the 1.8T, a **FAR** superior motor... -kc- |
