Do I spy a stud and nut conversion there? Has anything else been changed from standard spec?

Hi, Yes it has a stud and nut kit fitted, forgot to mention this but have just updated the advert. It also has 12mm front and 10mm rear wheel spacers fitted. Other than that its had the helix clutch fitted, new OEM DMF Flywheel along with a braided clutch hose as mentioned. The OEM clutches on these are know to fail and slip so this upgrade ensures this wont happen and it will also handle more power if the next owner wishes.

Thanks

Good evening. I m interested in the car but The car specification from Factory is different to this car. The car was ordered with the Recaro Wingback Seats and without DCC Dynamic Chassis Control.

What have happened to the original desirable seats and why does the advert say it has DCC.

Can you supply the VW Build sheet for this car as the car doesn’t stack up to the Service Book Options page. Thanks

Hi Maura,

I’m not sure where you’re getting this information from as that is incorrect. The car was not spec’d with the recaro seats from factory. The advert says it has DCC because it has it and it was spec’d with the DCC option from factory. The car was a press car and can be seen in Volkswagen Driver Magazine January 2017 issue.

Regards

For anyone interested here’s the magazine cover



And here’s one page of the article showing a picture of the OEM seats.



Sorry I don’t actually have the magazine but this was what I was able to dig up online.

DCC is option 2H6, which is not listed, and UB2 & G34 are listed which is the passive system. Mode switch then on the infotainment screen in chassis options will show DCC driving and will show comfort option. Can you send a photo of that please?

The seats are listed as the Recaro Wingback option Q4P, so can you ring up VW for official Certificate Build sheet, or the only plausible reason was their was a long delay for wingback seats and this being a press car they had to supply with standard seats quickly and never updated the computer..

Hi Maura, if you are genuinely interested in the car please come and view the car and I’ll show you the DCC fully working.

With regards to the seats the 53 number under PNS means - Titanium Black / Clubsport sport seats according to the VW owners pages

Other than that I don’t know what more I can say other than please come and view the car if your interested

Regards

53 is the colour code, not type of seats. I’ve just checked on the owners group and car 003 and 005 were also press cars and they came with the wingback seats, so not delayed. Photo of the comfort setting will suffice, not making a trip to do that. VW Build sheet shows how the car was originally ordered..
