You want this one, because it won't scratch glass:
https://www.amazon.com/Bon-Ami-04030-Cleaning-12-Ounce/dp/B000BQYBC6?th=1
Put your wipers in the service position and cover plastic shroud at the base of the windshield.
Clean your glass thoroughly with microfiber and a glass cleaner like sprayway. It's cheap and it sticks to the powder, creating a good slurry you can work into the surface of the glass.
Once the dirt and grit is off, divide your glass into 6 sections.
Spray a square of glass cleaner, and then shake a good bit of powder into the suds.
Fold up a microfiber towel into quarters, then hold it so you can make a tennis ball sized flat area in your grip.
Work the slurry into the glass with small circles, being as thorough as possible. You don't want it pasty, so add a little water with a spray bottle so that it's somewhere between runny and toothpasty.
Repeat for each 1/6th section, making sure to get every inch of the glass. Use a new section of towel for each routine.
Once you're done, you may as well wash your car to get all the slurry and white residue off. It's only tallow soap and feldspar, so not too bad.
Don't use rain-x or anything afterwards, and clean the glass with a good quality cleaner like Stoner's or Sonax.
haha I always love parking next to another GTI. Even better when I return to my car to find another one parked next to it :]
I also recommend some Nevr Dull to help keep your exhaust tips shiny https://www.amazon.com/Eagle-One-1035605-Nevr-Dull-Wadding/dp/B000CNBI1A :P
Sure. You're going to be running a power wire from the radar, across the top of your windshield, under the top part of your A-pillar, into the rubber trim, down to the side access, and into the fuse box. You're going to put an add-a-circuit in to put two fuses in one slot and share a fuse that turns on when the car is in accessory mode so the radar is only on when the car is on. These are the steps I took:
Step 1:
Mount the radar where you want it to be. I have mine above my mirror so it doesn't obstruct my windshield view at all and isn't visible from outside the car.
Step 2:
Plug the power wire into the radar.
Step 3:
Feel the top of the windshield where the headliner meets it. There's a roughly 1/4" gap there. Tuck the power wire into this gap, working your way towards the driver's side door. The red line is the path your wire will be taking.
Step 4:
When you get to the edge of the windshield, use one of the trim tools to gently pry the A-pillar cover just enough to allow you to tuck the wire into it. Get the wire flat and then push the cover back into place.
Step 5:
Tuck the wire in between the rubber trim on the door, working towards the dash.
Step 6:
Use the trim tool to pry off the side cover. It has 3 clips and should come out fairly easily.
Step 7:
Remove dash drawer by opening it and then squeezing the sides towards the back.
Step 8:
Pull out a fuse, put it in your add-a-circuit, then put the add-a-circuit plug where you pulled the fuse from. The red arrow points to the fuse I chose.
Step 9:
Turn on the car and verify that the radar powers up and down with the car.
Step 10:
Velcro strap the excess power wire and tuck it out of the way.
Step 11:
Replace the drawer and side panel
Stuff to buy:

Do it yourself it's very easy. And will only cost you a few bucks in tools. The dealer used the method "bottom fill" with vag com and using the plastic fill plug to gauge the temperature and amount put in. Obviously vag com and the dealer tool are expensive. So I offer the "top fill" approach. You buy this funnel
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000EH4V0Y/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Then buy this service kit.

Leave car overnight so new dsg oil is same temp as old oil in the dsg.
Drain it. Then measure how much came out. Will help drain speed if you remove filter and second drain plug.
Put in drain plugs. Then use funnel to hookup to filter hole and put the same amount of what came out back in.
Put new filter on. As well as battery and air intake as those should be removed as well. Battery doesn't have to come out but makes it much easier.
Turn car on. And with brake on go through all the gears about 5 times. Just moving the lever down then back up 3 times. You will have all kinds of lights on ur dash this is normal. Just drive about 20 ft they'll go away. Relearn pinch protection on Windows.
Explained here.
https://youtu.be/Ink6ZpYqPQk
Note they doing bottom fill method.
Here is a video on top fill but he does use vag com and drain plug method which shouldn't be done without vag com.
https://youtu.be/nhE19GCXlvA
Edit: Wanted to mention it might take up to 4 hours your first time but after that it takes about a couple hours and most of it is just waiting for the oil to go down the funnel.
Edit 2: my stealer quoted me $508. An honest indie should be able to do it for around $350.
You can buy them from amazon from Lamin-X. I had these on my MK6, pretty easy to install and great look
Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/Lamin-x-VW126Y-Fog-Light-Cover/dp/B006FXFXAS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1537913222&sr=8-1&keywords=yellow+tint+film+fog+lights+mk6+gt
Some would say JB4. I would fall into that group since it is removable before any necessary dealer visits.
Invest in oil change supplies because it's so simple on this car and you can save yourself a good bit of money vs paying someone. Buy some things in bulk and you won't have to worry about not having them when the time comes and you'll save some cash. I have 2 MK7s and by doing this, my changes cost me about $30-35/ea and take me about 20 minutes, which is less time than most people will spend driving to the dealership.
Good luck! Oh also, you can pick up OEM oil filters off of amazon for pretty cheap too.

My dude, here are the wiper blades, all Bosch:
Rear: Bosch Rear Wiper Blade A282H/3397008634 Original Equipment Replacement- 11" (Pack of 1) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0042ETBEQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_M2uTCb9DREPSJ
Fronts: [EDIT: The previous ones I had listed were for a Fiat 500 which is my girlfriend's car. Will update the correct part numbers here soon.]
AUDI VW BOSCH AeroTwin Front Wiper Blades PAIR 650/450mm 26 18 A863S 2008- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FZWPO5Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_JM3UCb74T5N9G those are the actual OEM replacements, the Aero Twins.
The Bosch Icons are the 26OE and 18OE sizes, according to Autozone and the BOSCH site, although Amazon says they don't fit lol. https://imgur.com/a/4eyf0SU
They all fit perfectly on the MK7 GTI. You can order the actual OEM wiper blades but they're not common in the USA (the OEM wipers are Bosch but some sort of European variant of the Icons). The Icons though are perfect IMHO.
To go with the other reply from the Ross-Tech (worker?/user?/employee?) you can use it for that but there's a delay in the reading from a half second to a full second. It's not really all that noticeable unless you're kind of looking for the delay, but I think you'd be much happier with a boost pod.
Edit: also, if you're jailbroken you can use the bluetooth version of the transmitter but if you aren't jailbroken then you have to use the wifi version. Now I've not used the wifi, so I can't speak for how it performs, but I'd imagine that it would actually be better than bluetooth because of the latency (delay) associated with bluetooth as opposed to wifi.

I got mine off Amazon for $84, says it won't fit a 2018 but it does perfectly. It's the same product number as the vw accessories site.
$47 for the oil and $13 for the filter. Labor is free because I usually do it in the parking lot of any auto store and then drop the oil into their free oil dispense containers. lol
Been wanting to do something similar using EZ Lip. Looks pretty good for the price!
interior, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002Z2MZ4
Recommended to me and I like it. Smells nice (not over powering) is not glossy and can be used on treated leather (your steering wheel).
Just an EZ Lip, it has ripped several times though lol

I ran the control wire (just 4-wire phone cord with RJ11 connectors) back to the trunk of the vehicle when I ran my 4-gauge amp wire (this video helped a lot). I used trim removal tools to pull all the panels for that initial run.
For the control knob, I first removed the side panel to the left of the headlight switch that's only visible when the driver's door is open, then opened and dropped the small storage box above the driver's knee area by pinching the sides and pulling down. Once those are open you can route the wire up under the steering column and over to the gas pedal. I then followed the install manual for the Apex garage door button which were great. Just one note - when you get the shift boot off, all you need to do is push up from the underside of the buttons to dislodge them - don't try to remove the whole piece around the shifter, as it appears to be bolted somewhere to the rest of the console, contrary to their instructions. Here are pics of the final installand customization of the button module to accommodate the ACR1 control knob.
Yep. These cars eat oil. Every 500miles I put 1/4qt of oil or every 1000miles 1/2qt. Check out this oil. I’ve heard good things about it and I’ve been using it Liqui Moly 2331 Leichtlauf High Tech 5W-40 1qt they also sell 5qts
Got them off Amazon. They were these but looks like they're not available anymore.
Yes. This is the 5 Liter jug Liqui Moly Synthetic Leichtlauf High Tech 5W-40 and this is the link for the 1L bottles
Edit: Here’s my post about Liqui Moly Synthetic Leichtlauf High Tech 5W-40 Motor Oil
The Neuspeed RSe10 website (linked here) says that late model VW and Audi center caps will not fit, and that they recommend buying a different model from VW. Specifically VW cap part #: 3B7 601 171. I found 3 quick links, one from Amazon(priced per), one from ECS Tuning(priced per), and one from UPS Motorsports(priced for a set of 4).
I just got it off amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HO01TRM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Amazon has a 2-Pack of the 13oz liquid for $7.63 shipped with Prime:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00B28ZYPU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1504563114&sr=8-1&keywords=barkeeper%27s+friend
same color as mine, color code is LC9X, paint pen on Amazon here. just prompted me to go ahead and order one hahahah https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0094X8AHY/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1AFOMRKGZPFDX&psc=1
Wheels are nice, but I'd look into getting proper wheel caps. The mismatch is just odd. I can't say for sure exactly what size you need, but I'm sure you could get some that match or are a custom unbranded design.
These coils and these plugs are the ones I used after reading a bunch on the VWVortex and Mark6GTI messageboards. You may also want to get your intake cleaned (before you change the plugs) if you haven't already.
More than 50k miles on current ones. I'm guessing they're gunked up. I bought [these] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007WR66QQ/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1as) replacement.
I used Barkeeper's Friend.
I use the liquid pre-mixed formula (Amazon Link). You can find this at most stores that sell cleaning supplies too. I put a small amount on a sponge and then just rinse it off after.
