Some more pictures.
You can see this anywhere but some are close-ups. My interest was oil spec etc. Glad it isn't 508.
And a cute one for the oil over-fillers.

That doesn't bother me but never thought about it. Don't know if the other models are that way or not??its funny they could not place the VW corporate logo on the engine cover
cost cutting measure perhaps, or issue with the brand itself![]()
Yeah most likely so.I don't know the details honestly but it seem that is their latest language/trend; in the past in Europe, all those lesser value VW cars, like Seat, Skoda they would just slap their car logo over the VW, so in the case you would try to remove Skoda or Seat logo, you'd be stumbled again on another VW logo, it got to do something with that Id say
in this way, without the logo, I think they can use the same engine cover interchangeably no question asked
I like your car; however I see they do not incorporate DSG transmission, its only a tiptronic, and i'am not keen on the front facial but that a 5 lift gate is awesome space saver as well as its rear endYeah most likely so.
They have big enough logos on the body. I don't mind cost cutting by reduction of logos..
I'm not a brand bragger...lol
Of course I am running into some VW fanatics...
I will have to take a look.I do greatly like the big air filter and the 0W30 oil.
I may be blind but where is the 710 cap?
Under the engine cover mini hatch? That is an truly effective over-fill prevention mechanism.
I have my Ford engine cover on my porch on top of my table saw. Makes it look like a Hyundai motor
so no one will steal it.

I understand; btw, we are eastern Europeans so we very used to a Lada build quality owning and driven carsThanks
I don't fit well in any vehicle it seems.
Bad back etc.
I will say these seats are the best I have sat in since the 70's and the inside is big.
Plenty of leg and shoulder room.
I'm not jammed in the car.
It does sit low but so far so good.
Cars are tax deductions for me so I don't get bent with negative comments.
I try to ignore the little things because they will drive me nuts if I don't...lol
VW is careful not to call it free. They call it 'carefree'.Free maintenance huh??
