4 Introduction
Truly an icon.There’s just no getting around it. The Volkswagen Golf is a true
automotive icon, a classic car in every sense. At Volkswagen we
never rest on our laurels and we’ve been improving the Golf with
every model since its introduction to the market. In that time, the
Golf has established itself as one of the world’s great cars, and our
latest models proudly combine their long heritage with the very
latest in automotive technology and safety features.
On the inside, the carefully-designed ergonomics and the quiet,
comfortable ride makes driving the Golf a respite from the
daily grind.
On the outside, precision is evident in the Golf’s simple yet
dynamic curves. Pleasing to the eye, they also help the Golf slip
through the air with great aerodynamic effi ciency.
Work and play, or home and away: with nine models to choose
from, there’s a Golf to suit your needs – whatever they may be.
For comfort and convenience, look no further than the 77TSI; or
with its host of in-car technologies, the 90TSI Trendline is ready
for anything. The 118TSI Comfortline boasts an award-winning
engine that’s both powerful and effi cient, while the 103TDI
Comfortline features a diesel engine for fuel effi ciency and extra
torque. And for even more excitement and athleticism, the Golf
GTD, GTI and Golf R will be right up your street.
Whatever you choose and whether you opt for TSI (petrol) or TDI
(diesel) technology, you can rely on exceptional performance,
power and fuel consumption across the board.
But of course, the Golf doesn’t just look good, feel great and drive
well. Safety is paramount, which is why seven airbags and safety
optimised front head restraints come as standard on all variants,
and a fl eet of innovative, high-tech features unite to give you
complete confi dence when you most need it.
Safe and secure it may be, but the Golf is serious fun too.
Pleasure seekers won’t be able to resist its charisma, smooth
handling and high-tech in-car features, including Bluetooth®
phone connectivity to keep you in the loop while on the move
(standard on all models except the 77TSI and BlueMotion).
But don’t just take our word for it – the Golf has won numerous
awards around the globe throughout its life, proving its European
design and reliability are a winning combination.

Bold and beautiful.
When it comes to power, the Golf R tops the range. In fact, it’s the most powerful Golf yet released in
Australia, with its 2.0 litre TSI petrol engine delivering a remarkable 330Nm of torque and 188kW of
pure power. Its dynamic on-road abilities are boosted by Volkswagen’s 4MOTION® all-wheel-drive
system, which improves traction and helps keep you glued to the road.
Legendary performer.
Get the adrenaline pumping with the Golf GTI. Yes, the performance is a force to be reckoned with,
as the TSI engine takes you from 0 to 100km/h in just 6.9 seconds, but it’s got style in equal measure.
Prepare to be enticed by the black honeycomb grille, traditional red trim strips and aerodynamic
silhouette.

77TSI.
Fun for all.
Whether you’re taking on the daily commute, running your
errands around the city or out exploring with friends and family,
the 77TSI rises to the occasion.
Slip behind the wheel of either the 6-speed manual or the 7-speed
DSG transmission and feel the 1.2 litre TSI petrol engine kick out
77kW of power and 175Nm of torque, while emitting just 144g/km*
of CO2.
The 77TSI also gets you were you need to be in style, thanks
to its Titanium fi nishing touches inside, supportive seats and
comfortable ergonomics. And wherever it is you’re heading to,
no journey is complete without an accompanying soundtrack.
Set your own beat with the built-in RCD310 entertainment system,
complete with an MP3-compatible CD player and auxiliary input
audio socket to connect to your MP3 player.
As well as being fun, the 77TSI makes your safety a number one
priority. With no less than seven airbags, front safety optimised
head restraints and carefully designed crumple zones, our
designers have worked hard to ensure that should the worst
happen, you and your passengers are as protected as possible
from injury.
Better yet, the 77TSI also includes active safety features to help
avoid accidents in the fi rst place. These include Electronic
Stabilisation Program (ESP), which helps keep you on track in
all driving conditions, ABS brakes with Brake Assist, Electronic
Differential Lock (EDL) and Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) traction
control, and you’ve got a safety package to be reckoned with.
Smart, stylish and safe – everything you’d expect from a Golf,
and then some.

90TSI Trendline.
Style and value.
The 90TSI Trendline is the perfect driving companion. Reliable,
entertaining and quiet when you need some downtime. And it
doesn’t hurt that it looks this good too.
Its value is enhanced by active and passive safety features, design
and superior engine technology. On the entertainment front, it’s
packed with user-friendly, in-car technology. And it’s quiet, thanks
to its single-charged 1.4 litre TSI engine, which is turbo-charged to
boost both performance and fuel effi ciency.
If you enjoy listening to music as you drive, you’ll love the RCD310
entertainment system. Featuring MP3 compatibility and the ability
to stream your music directly from your phone without the need
for pesky cables (thanks to the in-car Bluetooth® technology), it’s
a breeze to operate. All the controls you need are available at your
fi ngertips with the Multi-Function Display (MFD Plus), keeping
your attention just where it needs to be – on the road ahead.
So sit back and enjoy the ride, safe in the knowledge that with
cruise control as standard you can soak up the atmosphere while
effectively managing your speed on your next open road adventure
– or commute to the offi ce. Plus Hill Start Assist (HSA) will help
avoid any potential roll backs on those steep inclines.
Other safety features guaranteed to make your life easier include
ABS with Brake Assist, Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP),
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) traction control and seven airbags.
Available as a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed DSG transmission,
whichever 90TSI Trendline you opt for, you can be sure of very low
fuel consumption and emissions that emits just 143g/km* of CO2.
So much so, in fact, that it’s been awarded a maximum 5-star rating
by the Green Vehicle Guide.

118TSI Comfortline.
Star performer.
The 118TSI Comfortline is a car built to appeal to drivers who enjoy
a car with plenty of performance as well as plenty of comfort.
With a twin-charged 1.4 litre TSI engine delivering 118kW of power
and 240Nm of torque, it’s very much a driver’s car.
The Comfortline strikes a near-perfect balance between the
extremes, offering a relaxing yet spirited experience to driver and
passengers alike. Dual-zone air conditioning, adjustable seats
and a quiet, carefully-sculpted cabin coccoon the Comfortline’s
occupants regardless of whether the journey is to the corner shops
or the far reaches.
The Volkswagen 1.4 litre Twincharger – with turbocharger and
supercharger – engine was awarded International Engine of the
Year 2010 and also topped the 1.0 litre to 1.4 litre category. Best of all,
it doesn’t do so at the cost of the environment, as it returns a frugal
6.2L/100km fuel consumption fi gure (7-speed DSG, as per Australian
Design Rule (ADR) 81/02). So you can enjoy your driving and still
save at the petrol pump.
Working in conjunction with the 118TSI Comfortline’s engine your
choice of a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG transmission, it delivers
sharp performance and an engaging drive.
You’ll also enjoy the security offered by a range of key safety
and technology features, including seven airbags, Electronic
Stabilisation Program, ABS brakes with Brake Assist, Electronic
Differential Lock and Anti-Slip Regulation traction control.

103TDI Comfortline and 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology.
Eco-nomic marvel.
If you like driving and also want to minimise your fuel
consumption, then the 103TDI Comfortline, or the 103TDI
Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology, is the Golf for you.
Both models are powered by a 2.0 litre TDI engine that delivers
103kW of power and a massive 320Nm of torque – so there are no
compromises when it comes to the driving experience.
The 103TDI Comfortline offers a refi ned ride. The interior is
luxurious, with plenty of storage space, ergonomically designed
and located controls, fl owing lines and comfortable, supportive
seats. It’ll also support you at the fuel bowser, with a combined fuel
consumption fi gure of only 5.6L/100km*.
The 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology includes
a number of technologies to further improve fuel effi ciency.
The Start/Stop system can automatically switch off the engine
when waiting in traffi c – and re-start it again when it’s time to get
moving, while the Brake Energy Recuperation system captures
some of the energy generated while coasting and braking and
utilizes it to charge the battery. The result? Lower emissions and
a miserly fuel consumption (combined) of just 5.3L/100km* – and
a saving of 1L/100 km on the urban cycle (compared to the regular
103TDI Comfortline model).
On the outside of both models you’ll see the same classic Golf
lines, with 16" Cleveland alloy wheels and the Golf’s classic,
confi dent stance. The drive is exactly what you’d expect from
a Golf – comfortable, relaxing and fuss-free, but with plenty of
performance lurking under the bonnet should the need arise for
some quick progress or sharp responses.

18 Golf GTD
Golf GTD.
Unique sports-tourer.
The GTD is a truly special car. Combining the torque and
tractability of its diesel engine with the sporting refi nements
of other high-specifi cation models, this is a sporty Golf with
a difference.
With 125kW of power and an impressive 350Nm of torque from
its turbocharged engine, the GTD is defi nitely not a car that’ll
be left standing still. It’s got diesel driveability, suspension and
dynamics tuned for a more spirited approach to the road, and
buckets of style.
The badge, fog lights and Seattle alloy wheels are subtle cues from
the outside; on the inside you’ll fi nd a leather-bound multifunction
steering wheel, sports seats upholstered in our unique ‘Jacky’
fabric, gearshift paddles for DSG models and a chrome-plated
gearshift knob.
The Golf GTD has been engineered with just one goal in mind:
maximum driving pleasure. And on this count, it delivers.
From the moment you turn the ignition key you can tell it’s a
diesel like no other. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 8.1
seconds but still manages to return fuel fi gures of 5.5L per 100km*
(combined). Its tightly-tuned handling and generous engine
performance, mated to a 6-speed transmission (manual or DSG)
and low-profi le tyres, will keep you grinning from ear to ear – and
from the open road to the fuel bowser.

Golf GTI.
The original hot hatch.
It’s a classic within a classic. The Golf GTI is one of the
automotive world’s great sports cars and this latest variant
is a proud successor to that tradition. The tread linking all
these models – apart from the badge itself – is great handling,
muscular performance and understated good looks.
It all starts at the front end. The now-iconic black honeycomb
grille, red trim strips and GTI badge immediately set this car
apart. Alloy wheels – 17” Denver or optional 18” Detroit models
– are nothing short of a statement of intent, while from the rear,
the diffuser, chrome tailpipes and GTI badge leave the cars
you’ve passed in no doubt as to what you’re driving.
Sitting in the cockpit is an equally gripping experience.
The leather-trimmed multi-function steering wheel fi ts
your hand like a glove and all controls fall naturally, and
unobtrusively, to hand.
Once you’re on the road, you’ll fi nd that the GTI delivers a
pure dose of driving pleasure. The TSI engine takes you from
0 to 100km/h in just 6.9 seconds and a raft of performance
and safety technologies work on concert to ensure your drive
is as safe as it is breathtaking. Seven airbags, Electronic
Stabilisation Program, ABS brakes with Brake Assist, Electronic
Differential Lock and Anti-Slip Regulation traction control will
give you confi dence to attack the curves and enjoy the ride.

22 Golf R
Golf R.
Making your dreams come true.
The most powerful Golf released in Australia, the Golf R is a
no-compromise car for those who demand only the highest
specifi cations of performance and distinctive style.
Step inside and settle into the sports seats and not only will you
see, but you’ll also feel the quality. The seats are expertly tailored
in a combination of Kyalami black cloth and San Remo microfi bre.
The interior features a subtle, stylish Silver Lane decorative
trim throughout. The steering wheel blends aesthetics with the
practical, in the form of gloss black inserts and (on DSG models)
gearshift paddles. And the dual zone automatic climate control
air conditioning will ensure you keep your cool whatever the
weatherman has in store.
Outside, it’s a similarly eye-catching story. It’s clear to see the
class-leading build in the Golf R’s bold design, with the gloss black
R-specifi c radiator grille complete with R badge, exterior mirrors
and brake callipers.
But of course, it’s not just all about the looks. The Golf R’s 2.0 litre
TSI petrol engine is turbocharged and features direct injection
technology, taking you from 0 to 100km/h in 5.7 seconds*. Its 188kW
of power and impressive 330Nm of torque make for a dynamic
drive, yet it still fulfi lls the Euro 5 emissions standards. And
although it’s the most powerful Golf to be released in Australia,
its 4MOTION® all-wheel drive system gives you the best possible
traction, no matter the weather, speed or road condition.
All this to be enjoyed to the beat of your choosing, played via the
RCD510 6-disc CD sound system with 6.5" touchscreen display and
eight speakers.
Safety-wise, Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP), ABS brakes
with Brake Assist, Electronic Differential Lock (EDL), Anti-Slip
Regulation (ASR) traction control and no less than seven airbags
complete the exceptional Golf R package.
*6-speed DSG transmission.

Exterior.
Modern classic.
It’s a shape known the world over. Classic, sophisticated, inspiring
– the Golf is simply unmistakable. It epitomises the Volkswagen
approach to automotive design; fi rst of all, it does its job; second of
all, it’s aesthetically pleasing; and thirdly, it identifi es itself as part
of the Volkswagen family.
Every generation of the Golf has further optimised its design and
this model is no different. From aerodynamics to lights and from
mirrors to windows, every angle, every component and every
decision has been carefully considered and precisely executed.
Exterior 25
01. Overall exterior designThe exterior of a car should do a couple of things.
Most importantly, it should help the vehicle to cut through the
air and help provide stability in all external conditions – road,
weather and environmental. It should also make a strong design
statement and locate the vehicle within a continuum of previous
models and marque stablemates. The Golf does all this with
aplomb, from the sleek grille to the integrated bumpers and from
the aerodynamic mirrors to the pillar locations. No matter which
way you look at it, the Golf is a car that appeals to the eye.
02. Sunroof ●
Let the sun shine in! There’s no doubt that a sunroof makes a
great addition to any car, and the Golf’s optional version is no
exception. Electrically controlled, it’s tilt and slide adjustable,
with an internal sunblind for maximum convenience. So you
can enjoy fresh air and natural light night and day, summer and
winter alike.
03. Rear view camera integrated in badge ●
The Golf’s optional rear view camera – cleverly integrated into
the badge – makes manoeuvring in tight spaces, not to mention
reversing, a much easier and much less stressful process.
It provides a clear view on the dashboard-mounted display
and further boosts the Golf’s safety package.
04. Daytime driving lightsA car can never be too visible. The Golf’s daytime driving
lights help other road users to see it coming from near and far.
Mounted within the main headlight assembly and protected by
a polycarbonate lens, they’re another great addition to the Golf’s
feature set.

01. RNS510 Satellite Navigation ●
The RNS510 Satellite Navigation System uses a touchscreen and
an intuitive user interface to provide real-time location and
navigation information on its bright, hi-res display. The fast
processor provides rapid updates and accurate navigation,
and the system includes a DVD drive and 30GB hard drive to
handle mapping data and a range of music fi les.
02. Multi-Function Display (MFD) The MFD is standard on the 77TSI and is a screen-operated
multi-function display system that is used to display useful
vehicle information (like fuel range or outside temperature)
and trip information (like average speed, current speed and
speed warnings). The MFD Plus is standard on all other models
and allows you to also display information from other systems
(radio, navigation, phone etc.) and customise lighting and
security settings.
03. Bluetooth® (not pictured)
Built-in Bluetooth® (in all models bar the 77TSI and BlueMotion)
means your phone can be operated hands-free while you
drive. So you can make and receive calls without diverting
your attention from the road. It also allows you to wirelessly
stream audio content from your phone to the car’s audio
system. Better still, it can be operated from the MFD Plus and
you can even access your phone book. There is a variety of
Genuine Bluetooth® accessories available for the Golf 77TSI and
BlueMotion models.
04. Media Device Interface (MDI)This convenient feature allows you to connect your USB media
player, storage device or iPod®* to the Golf’s audio system. The
device may then be controlled by the in-dash system rather than
its own interface, making operation safer and easier. Best of all,
the MDI connection will charge your portable device up while
it’s connected, (standard on Comfortline models and above).
Interior.
Beauty within.
Beauty, of course, is more than skin deep. The Golf’s interior
conveys a feeling of quality above all else. The steering wheel
has been carefully sculpted, for optimum comfort and control.
The driver’s seat is height adjustable and will keep you comfortable
(and ergonomically supported) every time you go for a drive.
The design is also easy on the eye; the lines fl ow smoothly from
one element to another and all controls, indicators, information
displays and storage spaces are logically located and easy to access.
Material design has also received careful thought, with the end
result that every surface is durable, easy to clean and highly tactile.

Technology.
Built for the future.
To build its cars, Volkswagen draws on a proud heritage of
technological innovation and world-class engineering. It expresses
itself in subtle ways; the easy integration of devices and systems;
the effortless driving and smooth performance; and the seamless
marriage of mechanical, electronic and computerised components.
All of which should be largely invisible to you, the driver.
Technology is a tool to help make your drive safer, easier or more
enjoyable, not an end in itself. Every technology in the Golf has a
specifi c purpose and will play its part in helping you get on with
your busy life.
28 Technology
01. TSI engineVolkswagen’s TSI technology includes turbo-charged petrol
engines with direct injection. The innovative engineering
boasts excellent torque and power at low revolutions – for you
that means lower fuel consumption and fewer emissions.
02. TDI engineVolkswagen’s cutting-edge TDI engines with Diesel Particulate
Filters feature Common Rail technology that injects precise
amounts of fuel at extremely high pressure. This not only results in
a cleaner burning engine – and years of hard-wearing durability –
but exceptional fuel economy, impressive torque and compelling
performance whatever the drive.
03. DSG - Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) (not pictured)
DSG is an advanced 6 or 7-speed transmission in which the
clutch and gearshift are controlled electronically. What makes
DSG unique is that the next gear is already pre-selected and
awaiting power to be transferred, resulting in a gear change that
Production of Shark Blue Metallic will conclude from mid February 2012.

Technology 29
takes only 3-4 hundredths of a second. The benefi ts are virtually
no interruption to power, traction or acceleration, and additional
fl exibility. Furthermore, because it ensures optimum transmission
of the engine power, DSG provides excellent fuel consumption and
driving satisfaction
04. Adaptive Chassis Control ●
The optional Adaptive Chassis Control electronically adjusts the
damper characteristics for each wheel, ensuring optimum driving
comfort for any road surface or driving situation. It achieves the
optimum balance between driving comfort and driving dynamics,
based on a newly developed control algorithm.
05. Hill Start Assist (HSA) (not pictured)
Hill Start Assist holds the vehicle stationary for 1.5 seconds on
hills with an incline greater than 5 percent, when the foot brake is
released, by temporarily locking the brake pressure. This intelligent
feature provides a comfortable hill start, which importantly avoids
any rolling back.
06. BlueMotion TechnologyBlueMotion Technology is the name Volkswagen has given to its
range of innovations and intelligent technologies that make its
fun to drive, fuel effi cient and more environmentally-friendly.
On the Golf 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology these
include the Start/Stop System and Brake Energy Recuperation,
both of which are simple in theory and robust in application.
The BlueMotion Technology brand mark lets you know you’re
driving one of the cleanest, most energy-effi cient vehicles in
Volkswagen’s range.

Safety.
Safety comes as standard, every time.
It’s all about the engineering. Volkswagen believes the single most
important aspect of any car’s design is safety. From airbags and
head restraints to braking and anti-skid systems, your Golf will do
everything it can to help you avoid an accident – and to protect you
if one occurs. These active and passive systems combine to provide
the best possible safety so you and your passengers can arrive at
your destination safe and sound.
30 Safety
01. Traction Control (EDL, ASR and ESP) Braking Control (Brake Assist, ABS and EBD)Traction control helps to ensure that you maintain control
of your vehicle even in diffi cult driving situations. Built
around three distinctive functions, Electronic Stabilisation
Program (ESP), Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) and Anti-
Slip Regulation (ASR), Traction Control improves grip, helps
prevent wheel spin and adjusts engine power automatically
depending on the conditions.
30 Safety Image is for illustration purposes only.

Safety 31
02. SeatbeltsAll seats feature three-point seatbelts, while the front seats
also have belt pre-tensioners (which tighten the belt on impact)
and belt force limiters (which reduce forces on passengers).
These help position the body so as to minimise injuries in the
event of a crash.
03. Safety Optimised Head Restraints By working in unison with your vehicle’s seatbelts, your
Golf’s front Safety Optimised Head Restraints are designed to
reduce whiplash injury – ensuring optimal protection when
you need it most.
04. AirbagsSeven airbags (front, front side and front and rear curtain and
driver’s knee) are standard features. Airbags combine with the seat
belts to help reduce the risk of severe head and chest injuries in
collisions. When infl ated, airbags cushion the head and upper body
and distribute the resulting loads over as large an area as possible.
05. Crumple zones (not pictured)
The body of the Golf has also been designed with the passengers
‘safety in mind. Front and rear crumple zones absorb the energy
of an impact in the event of an accident, working together with
the safety cell for you and your passengers inside the cabin.
06. Crash Impact Sound Sensor (not pictured)
The Golf is equipped with the CISS (Crash Impact Sound Sensor).
This remarkable innovation detects the sound frequencies
of noises typically heard during a crash, cross-checks them
against deceleration sensors, and activates the airbags and
seatbelt pre-tensioners in above average time. The hundredths
of seconds it saves can be crucial in a crash situation. CISS is also
perceptive in recognising minor accidents, so that airbags won’t
unnecessarily deploy.

01. Optical Parking System (OPS) ●
The Optical Parking System (included with optional Park
Assist with parking sensors) takes the parking aid/parking
sensor concept to a new level. A silhouette of the Golf is
displayed on the radio or navigation system screen during
parking, showing the Golf’s position and distance from
obstacles. Any obstacle within range of the ultrasonic sensors
is shown on screen.
Optional Equipment.
Make something unique.
The Golf is nothing if not versatile, making it a great match for
your own busy life and diverse interests. That’s why Volkswagen
offers a range of optional equipment – to make sure you can
tailor your Golf to your exact requirements.
Options for the Golf cover everything from entertainment
systems, technologies to assist the driver and overall
performance and appearance. Taken in combination with the
extensive choice of model variants, accessories, paint colours
and trim options, it’s never been easier to create a Golf that’s as
unique as you are.

Optional Equipment 33
02. Park Assist with Front and Rear Parking Sensors ●
Park Assist is able to manoeuvre the vehicle into parking
spaces for you. Once engaged, ultrasonic sensors compare
the available space with the length of the vehicle, when driving
past a parking space. If there’s enough room to park, Park Assist
automatically takes charge of the steering when you select
reverse gear. The accelerator, clutch and brake are all you need
to control as the Golf is expertly parked for you.
03. DYNAUDIO Excite 300W Premium Audio System ● (not pictured)
Available for the GTD, GTI and R, with eight speakers and 300W
of power, the DYNAUDIO Excite Premium Audio System turns
your Golf into a mobile hi-fi . Available in combination with the
standard RCD510 or optional RNS510 Satellite Navigation System,
it’s a great option for audiophiles and casual listeners alike.
04. Sport Package ●
Comfortline owners can also select an optional sport package for
their Golf. This includes dark tinted rear side and rear windows
to help keep the car cooler in summer; front fog lights to aid
visibility when the weather closes in; stylish 17" Seattle Alloy
Wheels and sports suspension to improve handling and enhance
the car’s appearance; and sports seats, for a fi rmer, more
supported ride when you decide to up the tempo. (Not available

Fuel Saving Tips 49
Fuel Saving Tips.
We can all Think Blue.
At Volkswagen, we aim to produce the most fuel effi cient, environmentally sustainable
vehicles possible. The good news is – we can all do our little bit to ‘Think Blue’.
Below, we have summarised the best tips for how you can drive more responsibly and reduce
fuel consumption even further. It’s not just your wallet that will benefi t from these tips, but
the environment too. Its practical benefi ts go far beyond just saving money and reducing
emissions. Here are nine tips on how to drive more effi ciently.
Be aware and save fuel. Think Blue.
03. Just let it rollUse overrun fuel cutoff .With the right driving techniques, you can really
save. Whilst in gear, coast down hills or towards
traffi c lights to reduce feeding fuel to your engine.
01. Take it easy and saveDrive the modern way and think ahead.Drive smoothly and anticipate hazards. Hard
braking and acceleration, sudden lane changes
and unpredictable behaviour is fuel-ineffi cient.
02. Change up early and fi ll up laterDrive in the highest gear possible.Use a higher gear with a manual transmission.
Low revs take far less energy. With an automatic,
reduce acceleration and avoid a kick down.
04. Comfort high, fuel consumption lowUse auxiliary equipment in moderation.Check the equipment you’re using – if you don’t
need it, consider turning it off. De-misters, sound
systems and air conditioning all use energy.
05. Savings are in the airCheck your tyre pressures.Check your tyre pressures to cut fuel consumption.
Under-infl ated tyres force your car to burn more
fuel. Tyres in good order will help you save fuel.
06. A warm engine – a cool way to saveAvoid short trips.Plan to minimise the number of trips you need
to make. Frequent short trips mean higher fuel
consumption as cold engines run less effi ciently.
07. Well-oiled for impressive savingsUse Volkswagen approved engine oils.A well-lubricated engine produces less emissions
especially when the weather is cold or the trip is
short. Change your oil at regular intervals.
08. Keep it sleekCut aerodynamic drag.Remember to remove roof racks, bike racks or roof
boxes off your car when they’re not in use. Keep
windows up and sunroofs closed to reduce drag.
09. Lightly does itAvoid unnecessary weight.Every kilogram you load into your car takes energy
to move – energy that will be supplied by burning
fuel. The lighter you drive, the more you save.

50 Glossary O Optional equipment
Glossary.4MOTION®
An all-wheel-drive system that provides the best possible
traction at all road speeds, in all weather and road conditions.
An electronic Haldex clutch responds to traction losses at the front
and rear axles and directs torque to the axle with the best traction.
Adaptive Chassis Control OThe electrically controlled dampers of adaptive chassis control
constantly adjust to the road conditions, the driving situation
and driver’s requirements. Using a button located on the centre
console, the driver selects between three damper settings –
NORMAL, COMFORT and SPORT.
Starting from the normal setting, the driver can change the basic
character of the car towards sporty or more comfort-oriented
driving. In SPORT and COMFORT settings, the corresponding
name is illuminated in the button. In NORMAL setting, only
the shock absorber symbol is illuminated. In all settings, the
adaptive chassis control adjusts the damping to the particular
driving situation (up till one thousand times per second)
which means it offers an optimum level of driving comfort and
enjoyment at all times. In addition, in the SPORT setting the
steering feel is also adapted. Particularly on windy roads and
poor surfaces, using adaptive chassis control offers sporty and
yet comfortable driving.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)When braking, wheel speed sensors measure the road wheel
speed and should one or more wheels start to lock the ABS system
reduces brake pressure to that wheel. This prevents the wheels
from locking during heavy or emergency braking, enabling the
vehicle to remain steerable.
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR)ASR is a switchable traction control system that prevents the wheels
from spinning under acceleration by reducing engine torque.
Brake AssistDuring emergency braking, Brake Assist aids the driver by
increasing the brake pressure automatically to a level exceeding the
locking limit. The ABS is thus quickly brought into the operating
range, which enables maximum vehicle deceleration to be achieved.
Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG)DSG is a manual gearbox in which the gearshifts are controlled
electronically. What makes the DSG unique is that it has 2
separate gear sets operated by 2 clutches. The benefi t of 2 gear
sets and 2 clutches is that one gear set and clutch is engaged
driving the vehicle with the second disengaged clutch having
already pre-selected the next gear awaiting for power to be
transferred. As the next gear has already been pre-selected prior
to power being applied, the gear change only takes 3-4 100ths of
a second. There is virtually no interruption to power, traction or
acceleration. The DSG also offers Tiptronic gear selection and
sports mode.
Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD)Electronic, more sophisticated means of regulating the ratio
of front/rear brake pressure. Settings are varied according to
driving and load conditions to ensure each wheel is braked to the
optimum extent.
Electronic Diff erential Lock (EDL)EDL improves driving and steering characteristics when
accelerating on road surfaces where each wheel has a different
degree of traction. The system operates automatically and is
combined with the ABS system. Using the ABS wheel sensors,
EDL monitors the speed of the individual driving wheels. When a
difference in driving wheel speed is detected (i.e. when one wheel
starts to spin due to differences in road surfaces, e.g. due to water
or dirt) the system brakes the spinning wheel, transferring engine
power to the wheel with the best traction.
Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP)ABS and ASR traction control systems are integrated into the
Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP). In short, ESP helps ensure
that the vehicle goes where you steer it even in extreme driving
conditions. The ESP system constantly compares the actual
movement of the vehicle with pre-determined values and should
a situation arise where the vehicle starts to skid, ESP will apply the
brakes to individual wheels and automatically adjust the engine’s
power output to correct the problem. ESP prevents the vehicle from
losing control when trying to avoid an accident, for example. It also
prevents spinning off on a curve due to either understeer or oversteer.
Extended Electronic Diff erential Lock (XDL)XDL is an extension of the Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)
function. When cornering, XDL responds to the load relief at the
front wheel on the inside of a corner. The ESP hydraulics are used
for the XDL to apply pressure to the wheel on the inside of the corner
in order to prevent wheel spin. This improves traction and reduces
the tendency to understeer. As a direct result of the one-sided and
precise braking pressure, cornering is sportier and more accurate.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)Hill Start Assist (HSA) holds the vehicle when the foot brake is
released by temporarily locking the brake pressure (for a maximum
of 1.5 seconds) to provide comfortable starting-off without rolling
back. Hill Start Assist (HSA) operates on inclines greater than 5%
and is fi tted in combination with both the manual transmission and
the Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG).
Park Assist OPark Assist actively helps the driver when reversing into parallel
parking spaces. The system works by using sensors mounted either
side of the front bumper together with parking distance sensors
front and rear. To parallel park the driver needs to press the Park
Assist button and use the appropriate indicator before the car passes
the potential parking space. Sensors in the front bumper then scan
the size of the parking space as the car is driven slowly past and
the driver is alerted if the parking space is big enough. If there is
suffi cient space, the driver stops the car, selects reverse and let’s go
of the steering wheel.
Park Assist will alert the driver of the intended reverse path in the
Multi-Function Display, within the driver’s fi eld of vision. Park
Assist then actively supports the driver by taking over the steering
control and parks the vehicle in the available space using the ideal
course, if necessary with several moves. The driver can however
take over the control of the steering at any time and end the
automatic parking procedure. The system can reverse into parking
spaces on both the left hand and right hand side of the road, for
example on one way streets.
Park Assist cannot replace the driver’s attentiveness. The driver is still legally responsible
for the vehicle. If the driver notices a risk that pedestrians, other vehicles or objects could
be damaged or if they are uncertain of the risk, they will need to react accordingly and
stop the vehicle, ending the function.
