[@Milen4u]

Maybe it's a good idea with the long reviews to make bookmarks with links to the different sections of the review.

[@tinyhotopicbitch]

2:27 The precision and attention to detail in the tail lights is ORGASMIC!

[@OrdinaryJoe12]

I wouldn't go that far in regard to my own physical responses but they are appealing

[@gont183]

Wish my German internet connection would let me view these beautiful works of engineering in HD.

[@MrTARIQSs]

Holy crap 1 hour Gotta watch the whole thing cuz where else can i find reviews as deep as yours? ;)

[@autogefuehl]

take your time :)

[@davidho5447]

Love your review videos. Just brought a pre-facelift Golf GTi myself and its great to see your in-depth reviews where there's focus on the little details of the design and everyday things that you live with and it's not just about track performance and power slides.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, watch more of our reviews!

[@nuggi25]

Incredible detailed and thorough walk through of the new Golf. You guys make the best videos. Keep up the good work!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, keep following us!

[@kennethzhang8696]

I feel like German accent is perfect for reviewing German cars.

[@autogefuehl]

=)

[@thomaslaursen6540]

It is very distinct and understandable for a swede .

[@gomidasodabashian4904]

so true !!

[@KriegerDelfin24]

I would always go for the DSG. I drive a 150hp Golf7 Diesel with DSG dont want anything else.

[@DarrenJMHughes]

You and your team produce a very comprehensive review of cars and this one on the new facelift Golf is just pure class.

[@autogefuehl]

pleasure to hear that, great to have your support

[@crackerboxpal]

Top man, wish we had as good reviewers in the UK. Always thorough and detailed reviews. I'm retired btw and about to order a facelift 7 R. So looking forward to your review, bit of a late life treat for me!, pretty sure this is the first facelift VW have done to the Golf in years. Used to be common. I have owned 50+ cars including every Golf mark GTI. Still unmatched.

[@autogefuehl]

e-Golf and Golf R Facelift review following in about a month!

[@autogefuehl]

Obviously KZbin is taking some more time to process the video this time, HD will be available any minute :)

[@autogefuehl]

here we go - finally works - enjoy again =)

[@jh5kl]

volkswagen teased the new arteon allowing some reporters to drive it sometime ago, will Autogefuhl manage to make a ninja preview for us? :)

[@autogefuehl]

We ll do an extensive coverage, will take some weeks still however :)

[@drunkensessions]

Excellent, have been waiting for this for a long time :) Looking forward to reviewing also base Golf facelift version.

[@autogefuehl]

pleasure to hear that, great to have your support

[@autogefuehl]

I dont like yellow cars. But that Curcuma is really stunning, especially as for the different reflections in sunlight

[@CAR_NL]

Modena Yellow is one of the most stunning colors on any car!

[@codyellis4933]

Autogefühl what do they call those new wheels on the GTI? They look like smeared Austin wheels. I love them!

[@marcusl9437]

18" = Milton Keynes.

[@MrTARIQSs]

cody ellis they're called parker or something like that on their uk configurator

[@codyellis4933]

|〉 TARIQ k. 〈| thanks!

[@markhamilton7289]

These reviews are always very comprehensive and very well infomed. well done guys.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Mark, stick with us!

[@E4008B]

Love your detailed review! I'll be looking to update my GTI when this one comes out in Australia! Thanks!!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, keep following us!

[@krowblack6839]

I love how they never mess with the GTI badge, its been like that for ages and it works.

[@thomaslaursen6540]

Thank God.

[@stephanegeay124]

Hello Autogefühl team ! I just discovered your channel and I love it, your videos are very detailed ! Thomas is perfect, he is very thorough and he speaks english very well. I'm french and my german high school years are fading away ! I will binge watch all of them, maybe in german too so that I can rekindle my german knowledge !!

[@autogefuehl]

great to have you here now! Merci beaucoup :)

[@jbshp2011]

Thomas, I enjoy watching your videos on these VW's man I mean your reviews are so detailed oriented and so precise. I am going to wait for the facelift golf and this to come later on in the year. I do want that active info display in the u.s models. keep up the good work man

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Jeffrey! Keeping you updated with more Golf Facelift versions soon!

[@rossthomson6274]

Great review as always Thomas

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Ross!

[@blue-ck9ns]

I like how in Europe, they can equip the regular Golf with all of the tech. Luxury car features without a luxury car price, and still excellent fuel economy. I love my Golf R facelift, but the fuel economy is killing me with the rising gas prices here in Los Angeles.

[@Titeroper]

Hi from South Africa Thomas! We get this facelift in May and your video has convinced me to test drive the facelift GTI as my next vehicle purchase. Very comprehensive and well done to team who work on these videos.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks Riaan and enjoy!

[@wolvoman1]

Another brilliant review, as usual, Thank you.

[@ernanijunior7963]

Great review, Thomas! The Golf is an awesome car indeed. I'm excited by the new Polo too and I can't wait for your brilliant review of that car. My former car was a Polo, but VW had halted its production years ago in Brazil. Now it returns with the same car sold in Europe with some adjusts to adapt it to our conditions here. I love Autogefühl channel.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! I will take a personal look at the all-new Polo in a exciting studio production next week !

[@garyzies3486]

That's a fantastic video to watch. I love all the detailed descriptions of the features these Golf's are offering. German craftsmanship, style and car innovation is unrivaled.

[@autogefuehl]

way to go!

[@timbuk]

great review as always. thank you! looking forward to the GTE

[@autogefuehl]

thanks!

[@iCoolaxe]

Hope you're having a good day Thomas. Great review as always! :-)

[@autogefuehl]

thanks m8 !

[@sergeyyevtukh388]

Great work guys, superb quality video review , perfect pictures , view angles, Beautiful weather Oceanview I am just enjoying it , Autogefuhl has a class, thanks! And 260 comments in 1 day, wow you make some waves, hehe ;-)))) btw wag group is #1 selling automaker in the world now for all the haters, hehe...

[@autogefuehl]

way to go Sergey =)

[@hokieplaya]

Great review of an excellent car! I got my mk 7 GTI 5 months ago and am loving every bit of it! :)

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Amit ! More Golf versions to come soon

[@carlosramos992]

thanks a lot Thomas for such as great review! Gti and You are the best of the best!

[@autogefuehl]

love to hear that, thanks so much!

[@josemanuelbonetramirez5305]

Always a joy to watch your reviews Thomas

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, keep following us!

[@bew245]

Excellent report. I find your reports hugely more informative on the everyday running of the vehicles rather than the nit picking A*****r reporters than seem obsessed with the handling at 11/10s and whether they caught their fingernail when opening the glovebox for want of something to criticise.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Brian, great to have u here

[@gooscooby5988]

Brian Wilson is

[@jaikee9477]

Certainly more mature than those stupid head to head videos on motor trend channel, where playstation drivers argue about the better car based on which goes faster 0-60 in a straight line. Painful to watch.

[@caraddicted6794]

Still the perfect car for everyday use!! Love the new interior and the GTI :) In such a mature car are no big changes necessary!! Mallorca looks wounderful :)

[@autogefuehl]

it does :)

[@mindcrafte]

I love your reviews and your attention to the details of the car as per your last comment about the frameless mirrors as I noticed that as well. We are finally looking for a small car so this info very helpful

[@autogefuehl]

+Simon L glad we could help!

[@MichaelGross1]

Great review, really enjoyed it! Love the new facelift, although the new volume buttons might be a bad design decision.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! If you want volume knobs, then leave out the top trim infotainment. Also there are knobs on the steering wheel that might help :) Hope you re doing fine!

[@ThAsSq30]

Thank you for the great great video. Made my day!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, watch more of our reviews!

[@paulwoods4094]

Brilliant review once again from Autogefuhl, very informative, professional and a lot of attention to detail!

[@autogefuehl]

great to have ur support Paul!

[@peterturnansky8885]

Very good video as always.Greeting from Slovakia :)

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, watch more of our reviews!

[@shauncorney5944]

Great review! And Thomas is such a CUTIE! :)

[@autogefuehl]

+Shaun Corney haha thx

[@thehighlander8952]

Thomas i updated my 2014 3 door night blue performance pack gti for a 2017 white 7.5 5 door performance pack gti with bresecia alloys , my old car was great but I can't believe how much better the mk7.5 is .keep up the great reviews

[@autogefuehl]

cool, thanks for the feedback!

[@vaggd6659]

Great Review keep up the good work!!! The fuel consumption is just impressive given the fact that its a new engine and needs some break in time,also for the driver to learn the car etc. I'm eager to see what mpg the 130hp bluemotion version is going to have, it might even make the 1.0 tsi useless.

[@autogefuehl]

+Vagg D 👍👍

[@JoshL1]

Great review, these cars are stunning!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks man keep supporting us!

[@FilipCofi]

Hi Thomas, good review, as always. In my opinion this is by far the best car channel on the YT. Now, regarding the new 1.5 TSI - it would be great to test it again, BUT this time in city and on the autobahn also, 'cause 6 liters in the extra urban cycle on regional roads isn't a big deal (I can easily achieve this figure with my Octavia 1.8 TSI). Another thing, do You know can we get 2 cylinder mode if driving with cruise control ON at the higher speeds (between 130 - 150 km/h for e.g.)? It would be nice to see current consumption that way and compare it to normal, 4 cylinder regime of the same engine. Danke. :)

[@autogefuehl]

thanks so much, spread the world! Yes I felt the COD mode even worked better with Cruise Control.

[@tobyport5873]

Another great review Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, keep following us!

[@AoiGP]

hope to one day, go back to owning a Gti again. I surely miss that torque and swiftness it gives the drivers. But driving my jetta 2.5 will do for now.

[@cl6772]

Great review keep up the good work!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, keep tuning in !

[@mitch532]

Wow, such a great review.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks mitch keep following us!

[@CamaroSS1]

Great review! I will get the 2018 GTI when it arrives in the states.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! and enjoy :)

Thank you for long real life review :)

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, watch more of our reviews!

[@TransHerring]

awesome review and very well done! Thank you very much!

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated bro

[@gordonbennett6057]

Many thanks Thomas. Great views through windscreen when driving. Interesting info at 57:46 - fine particles, petrol engines and future petrol particulate filters... On this 'update' they missed a trick by leaving out a HUD (which on the Tiguan is basic, but works!). I like DCC: on the MQB platform cars I've tried, it changes the character of the car from soft calm ride at slow speeds in town, to 'sporty' for much more response. I note from the UK website configurator (and the latest brochure) for the new Mk7.5 facelift, that the 1.5 TSI is not available! Cheers Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

Indeed you have probably discovered on of the most significant information pieces in this video :)

[@attilaterenyi1482]

Hello Thomas, thank you very much for all of your nice reviews, you make our chosen progress much easier. Keep going :) Do you plan to review Toyota Auris and Avensis? Hard decision to pick the right car :)

[@autogefuehl]

+Attila Terenyi not yet m8!

[@yasmin878]

Very informative and as always well made. When possible could you do a review about the Peugeot 3008, I know you were at the autoshow but I don't think you did a full review.

[@autogefuehl]

3008 in March!

[@PaulHojda]

Great review. I never liked cars with small triangle windows in front of the mirrors though. I wish they would have made the door just a cm and have a single large window, as I find those small triangle windows more often harm visibility than improve it

[@MLife1972]

Another fantastic review. I had never real thought about the cruelty impacts of leather seats so I now considered myself educated and I will certainly pick fabric seats for my new Golf. One unusual question - May I ask what wristwatch you're wearing in this review - it's cool.

[@autogefuehl]

Hey Mark, great that we could inform there and even greater you ll go with a sustainable option! That watch is a Alpina Seastrong Diver!

[@MLife1972]

Thank you so much. Now I need to save up for a new car and a new Golf. Keep up the great work.

Really nice review!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, tune in for more :)

[@Kol2388]

Thomas is back :), great review as usual I think someone already asked this but how much time does it take to make an hour long video especially this detailed like you guys do it?

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks! Just the shooting for this video was 2 whole days, without post production.

[@KS-ro6in]

you do a very good job with your videos. I have now seen about 12 .

[@autogefuehl]

Welcome!!

[@IvanBosnjak89]

Great review as usual Thomas :) Can't wait for the Golf R look as well! The current Golf R has really tight gear ratios, which isn't good for highway cruising. I hope the new 7 Speed DSG is better in this respect. Have you tested this gearbox in the GTI PP, or other VAG models? Hopefully we'll see a sunroof in NA this time as well :P

[@autogefuehl]

all coming up in a couple of weeks!

[@patrickb827]

Hi Thomas, great review as always! I've watched and enjoyed your reviews for quite a while and have often felt tempted to write and bring your attention to a couple mistakes you make regularly in English - don't misununderstand, your English is excellent and the little errors sound charming! However, there are a couple of terms you use regularly that I understand because I speak German and spend part of my time in Germany, but I've often wondered if people who don't speak German always understand. Yesterday a friend who also enjoys your videos asked me what exactly you meant by "variants of the Golf" - so I think it is time to write to you. 1. The Golf Variant (in Germany) is called Golf Estate in the UK and Golf SportWagon in the USA. A Variant in English does not mean Estate nor Station Wagon. 2. To say that something on a car is "serienmäßig", the correct term is "it is standard". You like to say "from series" or "from serial", which in English is like talking about a Fernsehserie" and doesn't make sense. You can say, E.G. "LED lights come as standard on the upper trim levels," or "19 inch wheels are standard" 3. The word "gauge" (like speedometer or rev counter) is one of those silly English words: The pronunciation is "GAY-je". You pronounce it "GOR-je", written "gorge" which means "Schlucht". I hope that helps Keep up the great work!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks patrick!

[@herrdoktorknowitall]

Wow. These interiors are nicer than whats in the current BMW F30 3/4-Series.

[@danielwilliams9645]

Brilliant review as always. Just about to order the new Golf R Face lift model. Any news on a review on that?

[@autogefuehl]

Golf R Facelift review by the end of March!

[@cagataygumus2492]

Nice work Thomas and Autogefuhl team, I want to see 1.5 TSI 130 BHP DSG BMT test as well. Especially engine shut down function. Thanks.

[@autogefuehl]

pleasure to hear that, great to have your support

[@mesuttasdemir4618]

1 hour 10 minute golf porn i actually like it... :D keep it up

[@autogefuehl]

way to go! =)

[@jeffk464]

Not me, makes me wish I had the new version of my car. Sometimes I even wish I could have that 1.5L with the great MPG's and the cushy ride.

[@jh5kl]

i know what you feel, nowadays we buy something and we don t have to wait too much for a new better version to arrive, but i managed to turn that into a good feeling, just think that an even much better version (next gen golf) will arrive after, apparently it will even have variable geometry turbo! most likely it will continue the trend to be lighter and much more tech.

[@thomaslaursen6540]

I 💟 my 2018 Golf GTI DSG. Best car I have bought. Never a BMW again. I had cars from Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV 1973 to Peugeot 504 and VW 1200.

[@mujtabasarwar9137]

Excellent reviews!!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks feel free to recommend us!

[@gavlatennis2824]

Top quality video again Thomas. Which country was that? Looks too warm for Germany this time of year!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! I do give a landscape hint a couple of times :)

[@nickhickson8738]

Hmmm, I have only had my new Golf MK7 about 7 months now - a 1.4 TFSI BMT in metallic Silver. And now they've updated it!!! Well, I am going to bide my time until the MK8 comes out.Anyway, Thomas many thanks for your excellent reviews as always.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! U still got a great car np

[@marco1173]

Right after the "Full HD, full stream, full length" I click Like XD

[@autogefuehl]

way to go =)

[@mrossoxner]

Great review!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, watch more of our reviews!

[@cgh1662]

Another great video -what is the watch you are wearing on the Golf test?!!!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏 its an alpina

[@OldVillain]

I love my mark 7 Golf 1.4 TSi, it averages 6 litres per 100 km from mainly town driving with the odd 15km stretch to the next village.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback !

[@kwamedavis7634]

favorite review . i have a mkiv jetta . there are so many good things to mention bout the car ...build & ride quality , highway mpg , simple engine . mine has almost 200k on it with the original shifter the comparison to this new car is laughable ...it looks so effortless in this car . dub love !!

[@autogefuehl]

cheers m8 =)

[@theartofpixels9658]

Such good review thanks

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated!

[@keeszoutzeling]

@autogefuehl Another great review Thomas. Do you know when the Performance Pack and Golf R will be available in Germany?

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Kees! Golf R Facelift review coming up in about a month

[@Kermeliz]

Nice review, but how about audio? Sorry if there was audio review in there, didnt notice. For me, audio is very important part of the car.

[@boufent]

Great review

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, keep tuning in !

[@carlovinci6503]

Hope you do the 2017 Golf R facelift soon :)

[@autogefuehl]

Sure, approx 2 weeks left !

[@Intredo]

Omg i hope vw brings the memory seat position linked to the key to the original golf 7 gti also, i really miss that option.

[@autogefuehl]

I did mention that indeed

[@heavenlyrule]

Am curious as to what recorder make and brand you use to record your onboard in-car video? I see it is a Sony, but can you give more details? Thanks.

[@yangcao2818]

what do you guys think of the digital info display? personally I like the analog, but if VW allows the option to change the colors it'd be cool

[@EqSA51M]

Hi, great videos I love them! Will you be reviewing the new Seat Cupra 300?

[@autogefuehl]

yes, next week :)

[@EqSA51M]

Autogefühl awesome can't wait!

[@sivispacem101]

sehr professionell danke!

[@autogefuehl]

e-Golf Facelift online, and Golf R Facelift review will also be coming up!

[@bayramilhan30]

very satisfactory review really...thanks a lot.... waiting for the test of new seat leon fr 1.4 tsi 150 ps dsg

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks, keep following us! Have you already seen our Leon Facelift review? kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmjdo4d4eJmZp6c

[@tomashrubovcak3770]

I can't decide between the new Astra & Golf. Which one should I buy?

[@hansnilsson5622]

Thank you for another great review! I’m a bit curious about the rear view camera. The one shown here on the GTI doesn’t look that impressive, as you say. But this polish review of the 1.5 tsi seems to show an upgraded camera including dynamic guide lines, in: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKCwoKWpn954gqM Did you notice a difference between the different models?

[@hansnilsson5622]

Answering my own question, in case anyone wonders. If you order trailer assist with rear view camera, you get the improved one. Otherwise it stays the same as before.

[@thomaslaursen6540]

The camera in my Golf GTI 7.5 version has guidelines. I am fully satisfied with it 👍

[@JMB1891]

Great in depth review as always, would you say the DCC is a worthwhile option for most everyday driving or is the normal setup good enough? Also when will you get to review the new Golf R? Thanks

[@autogefuehl]

+JMB1891 golf r in a month! U can also get along without dcc

[@SunLoverMan]

JB normal setup is quite good. But if you want more sporty handling then it is better to buy aftermarket coilovers instead of spend money on DCC.

[@Spike0000]

Love my golfs....all generations..but these new metal, really keep pushing the boundaries....German-Metal/Technology..the best!!!!:)....

[@davidhayes4814]

Nitrous Oxides are formed under heat. Diesels produce more of these because they operate at a higher temperature: Hence their efficiency, thermodynamically. I am more interested in your discussion of the 1.5 FSI, which seems to be a terrific compromise, since we all needdecent power to accelerate past slow vehicles. The 85PS pre-facelift petrol 1.2 ( non turbo) was very poor for this. Does cylinder de-activation produce asymmetrical wear, in the long run, say by 150K - 200K km? It is OK saving a bit of fuel but reliability shouldn't be compromised.

[@aaronjaggan]

Is the memory seat related to the mirror adjustments as well?

[@andrw8946]

Thomas what about R-line Scirocco or Golf review soon? Other than that i'd personally like to see your review on the 2016/2017 Toureg ?

[@autogefuehl]

Golf R and e-Golf Facelift in about a month. Scirocco R: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJbKimV-i86KnpI Scirocco GTS: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpLIYWhmrrSefdE Latest Touareg: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6W8iZqHh5p_qck Just always youtube search "autogefuehl brand model" and you will almost find every car.

[@MysticMaven]

Man I really want that TSI Highline but I can't find ANY information about it other than this video. Is it even available in the US?

[@CristianCarpiuc]

What doo you think about the 1.5 tsi is reliable?

[@mangewide]

You do The Best reviews online! 😀, when Will you drive The PP, With The Dsg?. I have order one, and is intressred 👌😁

[@autogefuehl]

thanks !! Sorry, the PP ? Performance you mean?

[@mangewide]

Autogefühl yes! 😀

[@por_siempre]

That 1.5 Tsi depicts the death of the Tdi, and DFP for petrol engines, bad news, we hope works better than on diesel.

[@Jrv200008]

Good video as we're used to. How about reviewing the new Grand Cherokee trailhawk? Seems like a very interesting car. By the way, that curcuma yellow is sexy as f*ck ;-)

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! Let's see what we can order from Jeep next

[@patrik2259]

WOW This is just what I needed! I am ordering a Golf 1.5TSI GT manual this year, it is my dream daily driver car. Love the design! I do not want any plastic bodykits and spoilers on my car, so no R-Line for me. But I do want 18" wheels, I cannot find this option in the configurator? This yellow looks pretty nice but I think I'm to conservative to order it. How does the White Onyx Perl look? Is it the same as Audi White Pearl? Thank you Thomas&Autogefül!

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated! More Golf Facelift stuff in about a month Maybe not all specs are available in all markets

[@patrik2259]

Autogefühl you have convinced me to get the 14 way ergo seat. The best thing is it's not expensive option. It's a little irritating that the configurator is not the same in all of EU. Packets and wheel names etc. is country specific...

[@MrTolesi]

Why the 18" wheels? Don't you want to be comfy?

[@Edefuchs]

GTI in curcuma would be amazing!

[@sechszylinder8055]

superb review, by the way what is the song at 1:15 please ?

[@TheRTPatriot]

I'm in love with that GTI. Nice facelift especially the virtual cockpit. No need to go for an Audi. Not sure if VW will bring all of this to North America as they tend to send their cheap designs...the boring Jetta in mind :(

[@autogefuehl]

They told me this Facelift is coming to the US about half a year later

[@Kavi4GP]

Can't wait for the facelift to reach south africa

[@harminon1280]

It could be interesting to do a video on the features. How dose adaptive cruise control or traffic assist work with the manual transmission??

[@autogefuehl]

as I said in the driving part, there is noch such thing as traffic assist for manual gear box! And ACC stops at 30 or 40 km/h with manual as it would stall the engine.
