I'm waiting for my 2011 GTI to arrive in September. Have been reading the forums and wondered whether the Canadian GTI is missing the noise pipe that comes in the American cars. Someone suggested that the Canadian cars don't have these.
As well, I was wondering if the 2011 diverter valve will be the the 'D' or 'G' revision.
So I called my dealer.
I asked them
1. does the Canadian GTI have a noise pipe?
.....'a what?', I was asked. I explained about a pipe to take noise into the passenger compartment, etc. I was transferred between parts and service and no one knew what I was talking about!
2. So I asked about the Diverter Valve.
Wow! Never mind the revision in use, between not knowing what the DV was and 'is there a problem' I got no where.
Does anyone find it troubling how little these guys know about the cars they service?
