What a great looking intercooler. May i ask what the model number of the Airtec intercooler is. We don't get them in m y country and i'd like this for my polo

The guy sniffing was the best part🤣

And if you seal speakers without taking out is working ?!

Many thanks...good video...

Does the Mk7 Estate have the same problems ?

Mate you got a link for the diffuser ?

Hi. Do you think would be ok to put plumbers mait to seal door speaker?😊

Yeah girls....good advice...Dont lick a dirty finger😁

How much cost it for fix?

Got the same issue right now and hoping a new set off coil packs and sparkies does the job...

Nice mellow vids hit different 🔥

Brilliant pal thank you 👌

What happened? Did it fix it?

Hope your cold gets better

Was it fixed? Just replaced the valve in my mini, got coolant in the oil

It’s the worst golf ! I miss my olds golf 🥲

Mk7 with water leak in drivers footwell,looked to be coming in close to footrest to left of the brake pedal but I could be wrong,check aircon drain pipe and it looks ok,seem to be worse when you drive it there’s more water coming in

What size of rivets dit you use?

My rear light has dead bugs in it as well, not to mention the leaks... I wish I'd seen your video before I bought the car....

What part do you need for fit the hpfp golf r on the polo?

nice job mate, thanks very much for the video, very useful

Nice s3 love the 8ps looking to get a spoiler for my s3

Even seat leon mk3 got water leak in the back floor

What sealant do you use? I don’t have a boot grommet, it’s missing! Could that be my issue or will it be the vents?

Thanks LRH Automotive, very informative. Unbelievable VW's put out such crap, I've owned VW's and Audi's exclusively since the late '70's my 2017 Alltrack will be the last VW/Audi I'll ever purchase. 2 of these water leaks should have never happened mainly due to poor choice of materials or lack of, the speaker seal material disintegrating after only a few years and the plastic vent with ZERO sealant just cheap cheap cheap. My lifetime love affair is over and done. As far as I know I don't have a leak issue, but now I'm going to go thru the entire car and preemptively repair the trouble areas ...you know the job VW should have done.

Well done mate and thanks for taking the time to video your work. I was going to buy a mk7.5 soon but this has made me pause for thought. You might just have saved me from buying a nightmare ! Cheers.

We’re you get the rear side diffuser things please

He rambles / babbles on too much, but does clearly point out the offending areas.

Found this after looking for idea/solutions for same problem on my 5 month old MK8 R. I may be unlucky, or maybe there will be more MK8's with the same over time.

What drop do you have?

I sealed my rear vents, my badge drain pipe is fine as well but I’m still getting water in the trye well. The plug you pulled to drain the water from vent, I lost mine so could that be the culprit?

Yo bro did he do a custom seat braket ? How did he get bucket seat in?

a lightly modded STI will do 13's so that's pretty ordinary IMHO. With 400+ bhp it would just be gone - end of ! ( And at 2.1 bar - like mine - it would be just LONG GONE !!)

"that brings about a total of 1242kg (2738.1 lbs) of unladen weight." = 1.22 tons ( UK). 380 bhp " VW Golf R, the kerb weight is 1,476kg" = 1.45 tons ( UK). +19% in total 450 bhp for equal power to weight..... No way it's a "proper job" with anything less than AP six pots and a real LSD . No use wasting your time on cr*p tyres and sh*t brakes even if it has 380 bhp. Kids with money = Grand Theft Auto -> crash and burn..... 5.8 is what my std car does on Advan AD08's and that's a bog standard STI time. Not hating honest - but there is a reason I've made it into my 60's by doing car mods right. Such as buying a seat that fits FFS !!!

Alright bud. How’s it been since you did it with all the rain we’ve had lately?

Great job, I've got the exact same problem, how did you get the vents out without access from inside, can you just lever them out?

Need a lot more of these places. I live in a flat and this is just what I'm looking for. Thanks for taking the time to post.

Hey man, if youre hunting down a rattling noise make sure you check the turbo wastegate actuator. Its a known issue that the wastegate has a tendency to rattle. I recently put a clip over the actuator and it completely fixed my rattle. Hope this helps!

Grommet for rear wiper also leaks.

Bad boy car 🔥 sounding clean

top job on your own

So isnt there any drainage holes along the bottom of the rear door?

Why would they refit/reseal the speaker and not have it connected as it fell out without having to unplug it. Bizzare.

What clutch did you have before? And did the clutch kill the engine?

thats a race oil that will need changing in less then 1k miles or 6 months same with the cfs nt+ , and from what i see not rated to vw spec , id reccomend Millers Oils EE Performance C3 5w-40 next time pal

Come on gezza the bad boys looking fresh

What did you use to seal the tailgate rubber grommets that leak water into the headliner tried silicone

got a golf R MK 7.5 and the window washer reservoir started leaking, LOL I emptied a whole botte of washer fluid into it thinking Jesus how much does it hold, then my feet started getting wet and I realised, one of the plastic grommets on the bottom of the bottle has snapped. because of work I have no time to fix it because it involves taking the wheel off and the bumper/ wheel arch lining to get to it. only problem with an over engineered car is I have a huge warning light on the digital dash saying please fill up washer liquid.. luckily it wont cost me a penny to fix it because I can get the parts through work but its such a joke that they use plastic grommets in an engine bay that gets hot and cold constantly causing plastic to perish... use aluminium or something FFS.
