Hello, first post, just wanted to say hi. I picked up my 4-door Red GTI MKV from Missoula, Montana. Yup, that's right, picked mine up in the states. I wanted the headlight washers with dual zone automatic climate control and the only way I was going to get it was from the states. Anyways, I'm in Edmonton and driving it right now, what a great car. However there's these annoying rattles that I'm bringing my car in to get it checked out. Which is better service, Norden or Southgate?
From what I understand, I don't see any difference between the american version and the canadian version. The only difference is mine has the center air diffuser. I believe that is where the rattle is coming from. I also found a TSB on the 2007 GTI about a fuel line that affects all new GTI and Jetta's. And technically speaking, all GTI are built from the same factory.
Welcome, I have a Tornado Red as well, but mine's a 4-door. They are awesome aren't they? I wonder how many GTI's are in Edmonton now. I keep seeing more and more. To be honest, I see more GTI's than Rabbit's. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. I think we should arrange a GTI/Rabbit Meeting or drive sooner or later before the summer ends.
