Which is AMAZING!
I've driven an R32 in snow and it's a wonderful experience. I've also seen some amazing videos basically demonstrating back road rallying in snow/ice. I wish that instead of dumping retarded amounts of money into LSD and different gearing, that I would have just doubled it and had the first silverstone gray AWD 1.8T GTI in the country.
LSD is still great though.. Increased handling dramatically!
Anyway, if you're having problems with your GTI, and it's still under warranty.. you need to take it back and have whatever's wrong fixed! Don't take no for an answer! If you put software, suspension, and a turbo-back exhaust on it, you won't be disappointed! I'm almost willing to guarantee that it will be one of the best and most well rounded cars you'll ever drive for the money.
