I Bought A 2024 Volkswagen Golf R

km per hour um, but yeah, some pretty embarrassing things happen here, yeah, that's one of them, no, that's not embarrassing, that's cool, no, it's pretty embarrassing, but if I direct you to this four-engine cylinders, you know, because I'm not promoting this car. I will do that. That's ridiculous. Where is the engine cover? Where is the engine cover? James no, no, but I actually thought I didn't know this. Where's the engine? He never came with one. What do you mean he didn't come? They forgot to put it. keep going, weight savings, no, that's not seen, it literally has the little things tabby so you click cost savings, cost savings, that's more like, I'm going to find out. the reason must be part of the chip shortage, yes, it must be, it must be, look at this R badge that looks good, yes, well they make a different brand for this one, they have this nice R, okay, let's finish this and then get into it. a bit of a sausage, I'm going to explain to you why the problems I have with the interior of this car are not what people think, okay, okay, when we first got here, nice solid German door slamming, you know which is like that. true boom, yes I see carbon fiber everywhere, yes I had no choice, not right, this is the extra carbon fiber interior package, if I didn't want to wait another six months I had to get it right, right? what other options are there?

I think it's like a fake aluminum looking thing. I don't even remember that this is okay. I don't care about this. Yes I care about this. Yes, there is still a lot of piano black. What's going on with that and him? uh the rearview mirrors for

2024

, by the way, I forgot to mention this when you lock them, they close in WoW, they haven't been available until this year. I didn't know? I didn't know until I saw it on the Facebook groups are okay so when we first got here we had some complaints yeah and some of them are still valid for certain things most of them are still valid so this is not on, this slider is also a slider, yes. which is fine, no it's not, I actually have a quote from you, play the clip, forget about the weird infotainment, forget about the haptic feedback, who cares about the lack of a volume knob?

You said it doesn't matter that it doesn't have volume. button damn, quote, uh, but the problem that you ran into on the track was that you started playing these capative touches, but the biggest one is that this button here comes so close to where your palm would be if you were on 9 and three, so not just on a track, but like Canyon Run and stuff, and if you click the R button it will change the mode you're in, but for all the problems I have with this, there's a solution for you to simply tape the wheel.

It's like hockey tape, yeah, yeah, before, before the game, you tape it up, yeah, 100% um and then, problems I have, that's it and for this to be signed is not a thing, honestly, the fact that it's not on is not. one problem, you just do this and remember where they are, it's still pretty dumb. Also, I don't like turning on my heated and cooled seats, it's one touch and then one touch, even though you said it sounded like such a small problem. It's not, although no, I hear, I don't disagree, I don't use this word often and I know it's frowned upon in today's society because I'm using the r word it's bad, but some of the decisions that have been made at the time Regarding this car it is ridiculous, I don't know why they did it the way they did and they could have made it simpler.

VW are supposed to be the guys who make something that just makes sense, it just makes sense, don't mess with it. it was ok so here are my real issues ok number one yes this was when I first drove the base GTI in California yes I said I missed the dynamic dampers and I missed the fact that it didn't have them no I had the improved sound system, yes, I was wrong about one of those things: this card and the sound system, yes, they are terrible. Oh, and in fact, at our clubhouse, Discord, we started roasting my car section and I was too afraid to roast anyone.

I felt bad. Immediately everyone has been very nice there but one guy posted a

golf

four and I thought the sound system is made of Twigs, great CH. I felt terribly roasted because I didn't know that I also felt his pain and there is a certain EQ. you can put in the Harmon card, that makes it a little better, but it's not a good enough upgrade from a sound system, and the only other solution I've discovered is the same thing I did when I was 17 on my Vox or corser No I want to know, I don't know about that, I only play things that are Treo, that's why I listened to The Beatles over and over again until I was 19, yeah, okay, that's the other thing and the other songs. there are some things that just don't seem to want to work, first of all this wireless charger takes a leaf out of the book x7s or any other wireless charger ever boils my phone and then gives up and says please move some of the things them locking your phone in the area where nothing blocks it is just their way of saying 100% it's you it's you and it refuses to charge has to be the biggest travesty in modern cars it's wireless chargers does wireless carplay work so my MX5 it just drops out it works sometimes phone calls and audio decide no no no and then i have to put the earbud on speaker and then other times just with music you'll be listening to music and it'll just go there for a minute just go to the corner you have Elton John hello I'm here and then he doesn't come back so fast, he slowly comes back, you don't notice it until he does it again 20 minutes later, it's so ridiculous. software problem and those are the real problems because I have gotten used to the interface.

I really like the gauge cluster. It's quite customizable with all the different views. It's still not satisfying to press a capacitive touch steering wheel. No. question um and maybe I'm the idiot because it will be there for next year for the 2025 model year. They are bringing back physical buttons on the steering wheel so I'm going to consider maybe modernizing them if I can if I remember correctly yeah . turn off the traction control you have to slide down no it's not hidden anymore now no it's not there where it used to be where where is it now uh now it's in oh no it's here press this little iPhone button yeah and you go to the vehicle , okay, and then when you're in vehicle two, okay, you have to swipe there sorry, sorry, sure, sorry, just back up for a second, no, it's a very simple seven-step process, No, I just need to know that.

I just want the world to know that Volkswagen has put the traction control system in a subheading under exterior called brakes, yes that's where the ESC is, okay yes that's done but then we realized that widgets can be changed in the dropdown, so yes, you can just replace the widgets that are currently there and put the ESC back into the dropdown. It's still a few clicks, but it's not seven, so like I said, some things are a little strange, however, for my big car, even though it's a great car, it's a fantastic car. I actually like it a lot.

I would probably still buy it. Okay, wrap up time. Well then the money is where my mouth is and everything I did. I

bought

golf

. Was it the only option? No, but in the end it was what he did. the most sensible thing in my mind of the season and sharing friendly memories from the heated and ventilated seats to the compact size and the power and the DSG transmission It just fits my life like a glove. That change? I don't know, to be honest, is it a German? hatchback that already has forums and Facebook groups full of little electric Gremlins, be good to me, watch this space.

I guess thanks for watching, maybe you haven't had enough of us, maybe that video just didn't scratch the accelerator itch well. Clubhouse us Ask questions live and what we do, you can ask us questions and then we will answer them. Whatever you want. Whatever you want. No, nothing. Whatever you want.
