Liking this, looks cracking with the wheels and lows.
Nice mk2 as well. Not that I am biased ...

I can highly recommend Scholl polishes using either scholl's own pads of Chemical guys hex logic pads. It is hard to tell from the pics without a proper light source as to what correction has been achieved but there is so much to learn if you wish to get the best results. Detailing World is a wealth...

They are really cheap. Surprised at that. Do you find out affects the comfort/ride? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk Yer I was too but had no problems with them and had them on well over a year. The ride is slightly harder but I'm used to driving very low and stiff cars. On normal DCC Mode it ri...

Where did you get the springs? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk From FK direct: http://www.carparts-tuning.co.uk/Suspension-Tuning/Lowering-springs/?filterKategoriePfadROOT%2FSuspension+Tuning=Lowering+springs&filterKategoriePfadROOT=Suspension+Tuning&filterVehicle+Model=Passat+%28B6%2F3...

The DCC is not affected when lowering springs are fitted to the original shocks. I know this as that is exactly what I have done. All the DCC does is affect the shock stiffness depending on the setting. I have a feeling the lowering springs may accelerate wear on the DCC shocks but I am ok with that...

Perfect thanks very much. Mine is a CC also so should be a simple job. I like the pressed plate on German cars, I was thinking of getting a shortened plate as I have a private reg and there is a lot of empty space on a standard size. Yes nice and simple. I always put pressed plates on all my cars, ...

Thanks, is it a simple job to remove it? From looking on other cars it would appear you often need to drill through the screws which worries me :sad: It looks like you still have a plate recess on the bumper or are my eyes playing tricks? Yes pretty easy, I don't know if a the passat is different f...

On my CC I removed it. The holes can be hidden if you stick the plate directly to the bumper in the same place. You may have marks on the bumper where the edge of the surround has been rubbing but that should polish out ok. When I had my bumper painted I also got the holes filled in, however the pla...

Heres a few under street lighting. Either from auto finesse wax or it might have been art de shine obsidian wax.

Gave it its normal weekly wash and got my 3 new contisports fitted. Other is only a month or so old after a hole in sidewall. Filled it full of mk2 golf parts. Emptied it and drove to work making full use of the extra grip. Wow they're good tyres and it is properly planted and stable now for a big o...

Such gangsta, many jealous

Cars too quick rubber can't keep up

Hard as fookin nails fella
Saw this at UD and loved it.
Oh and the sound must be addictive!
Keep up the tyre slaying

Welcome fellow CC owner

Good pics. I was so cheesed off after the queueing getting in that I didn't bother taking any myself. Loving the silver CC outside on air lift and the merc cls 55 amg is boss and is Lee's off here, who used to have an awesome CC before it.

Definitely a winning formula, with some decent backing it seems
Always been a Plato fan.
Will try and get to as many meetings as possible

Makes sense Karl. Either way it is annoying but easily cured with the ol right foot.

My CC with the same engine does this! It seems to be some built in hill speed regulator system that seems pretty un-documented.
I find that if I come of the throttle and then back on it gives up trying and I can fly down the hill!

Recommendation for AngelWax H2GO from me. Cheap and last much longer than Rain-x despite smelling similar.
Easy to apply and uses very little, use two coats with 15 mins in between for best results.
I do plenty of miles on rubbish back roads, plenty of mud and spray and it works for a good while

Finally got chance to start modifying my cc :) I am looking at getting 19inch rotiform INDs which sit at 8.5x19 et 35 but I'm having doubts if the will fit. Can anyone offer some advise? Cheers in advance. They should fit fine IMO, below is a comparison with my factory fitted extra 19 luganos on my...

The demister will do very little to burn off moisture on the outside. Get a good glass sealant on the rear window and water will no longer sit on it. I find if I give a good dam of the brakes reversing of my drive (slightly downhill) then most just runs off, if not by the time i'm out of the village...

Been onto Ross-Tech and they say that option for changing "marketing regions" was removed in the BCM. You can have fogs as DRLs though I thought I'd seen something in Byte18 but I've never been asked to enable Indicators as DRLs on a CC. The only other option is to see whether you get any...

I have a DAS-6 Pro machine polisher with various different compounds, polishes and pads. Also a safe wash technique so things don't get swirled up in the first place.

Thats the issue I can't find anywhere to select Scandinavian or North American settings. Is this likely to be in the same module or in some other adaption etc?
