Excellent video. I've had my MK8 for a year now, and didn't know about most of these. Thanks and keep up the great content.

As an owner of a new MK8 GTI, I greatly appreciate some of these hidden details!

This was really helpful! Just bought a 2022 Golf R, and I didn't know about the corner view, with the backup cam, or the one touch steering wheel heat shutoff.

Also on the camera screen, where the car is show on the left, if you slide that left, you get the camera full view on the screen

Great video man, also would you consider doing a video about the best seat covers to get for the GTI? I am shopping around but i dont seem to find any covers for the mk8.

Thank you for the backup camera tip. Was driving me nuts!!!

Subbed. Ty for the content. Looking forward to more!

Great video man!

👍🏽 good vid. Screen always needs cleaning

Keep up the good work!

I'm not sure if your GTI is the same as my R, so this may not work. When it starts in "sport" mode showing the D and not the S, you can use the little nugget where you would put it in Reverse, Neutral, or Drive and just pull it down like you were going to put it in Drive. It should actually put it into a sport mode at that point, changing the D to an S.

Great video

The GTI and R should default to start in Sport mode, with auto start/stop off and lane assist off.

Why anyone would need eco or comfort mode in a GTI or R. Thank you for your advice. I think GTI owners should have a class action against VW for not disclose product features

Subbed to help you reach 1k! I remember when I reached my 1k and got accepted for monetization! It’s a great feeling. However, the pay isn’t that great 😅😂

According to the manual, emotion start is only available in the golf r. It will rev the car to just over 2000 rpm.

I bought one in October. Same exact color too. I love this car. I’m gonna software flash it so I can get 300hp instantly but I had a choice of blue or silver and I love the silver. It doesn’t stick out which is what I wanted and it looks cool. I haven’t gotten pulled over yet (knocks on wood) 😂 I will be subbing btw

Just got a GTI s. Love it. As far as the sport mode, question, if you remember there was that guy out in California who had the Hyundai Elantra n and they got pulled over for too loud up and exhaust I bet the sport exhaust is too loud for stock California laws. And so the way the California test all that is that it is by the default of the car so if the car runs in sport mode when it starts and it’s loud, it will fail that test. So I think Volkswagen does that for people that have noise issues and noise testing so they won’t ever get a ticket for it because it will default to the comfort mode when the tester gets into the car even though it says sport mode.

Also on DCC put it on the highest sportiest setting,feels like a race car mad stiff and pops and bangs louder

Nice 💓🔥💵

At 2:14 how do you get the radio to display like that?!! I can't figure it out on mine, although I just got it yesterday

Does the GTI have any cylinder deactivation on the DSG or the Manual?

Dude! Clean your screen! There's goop all over your dashboard....and its dirty.🤔

If you press the gear shift down it will be in sport as well

did you do any height adjustment on your car?

credo che il monitor prima di fare un video del genere vada pulito 🤣

Why dont u have red in your headlights? I only see red on your front grill but not in the headlights!

The id le on the new exhaust sounds great.

Shoutout to Volkswizard!

Are these in the factory manual?

I have a question about the emotion start. I thought that only the Golf R 20 Years have this feature. And i can’t find any other vid where somebody talks about the emotion start on a normal GTI. 11:18

you need to clean your dash

You're videos are pretty good for your age, but watch other car reviews videos and listen to how they speak. You fumbled over words and few times and repeated things. But you'll get that dream job one day bud.

How did you make enough money to buy this car?

Dude, clean your car before you make a video, thanks for a good video, but . . .

bro got a brand new GTI and is doing oil changes himself lol you're car will be the cheapest on the market in the future

Are you even allowed to have a DL kid? 😅

I love hidden features/tips and trick videos such as these, would love to see a part 3 next time! Also if its for efficiency or pollution purposes, I don't get why the car doesn't let me start in Eco Mode and still reverts to Comfort Mode 🥲
