The engine sounds a bit like a diesel on tickover, and I think it's probably because it has direct injection (AKA FSI), which is more typically found in diesels.

What I wanted to know is if you find the engine is a tiny bit rough when idling - not bad and probably wouldn't have noticed if my Honda Jazz wasn't so quiet you sometimes wonder if the engine is running - is this normal for a GTi or should I have it tuned?

Can you both confirm what cards you are using - ie, are they Micro SD HC? Peter/Mink/Stephern

The Feedburner stats on the AdSense blog say that the blog has over 18,000 readers through RSS, so hopefully that article should get Carsurvey.org some new visitors, and maybe even some new advertisers. Over the last three days, the traffic has been about 5-10% up over what I'd usually expect, so I suspect that will due to the blog post. Thanks Gary.

Not an issue for me, as I never use video calling, but I can see how it's a big loss if you do. Hadn’t noticed the missing secondary camera until you mentioned it Iwan.
