The increased size has affected the amount of space inside: the total length of the cabin has increased by 48 mm, most of which went to add space for the rear passengers. Volume of the trunk increased, but only slightly: to 611 liters (by 6 liters) behind the rear sofa backs and up to 1642 liters (by 22 liters) in its folded down position. The rear sofa itself is folded in the proportion 40:60. Fully folded, it forms a flat area with the floor of the trunk. For the convenience of rear passengers an armrest is available, and for an extra fee you can order a separate – a third – zone to adjust the climate system.

2015 Volkswagen Golf Owner’s Manual — Questions and Answers

How do I know if my 2015 VW Golf wiper blades are installed correctly?

The new wiper blade should latch onto the wiper arm when pushed in the opposite direction of the arrow until it clicks into place. You’ll hear or feel the blade lock securely onto the arm. Owner’s Manual, p. 326

Why is my 2015 VW Golf coolant light on?

An illuminated coolant warning light indicates an alternator malfunction. Switch off unnecessary electrical loads immediately, as your vehicle battery will not be charged while driving. Have an authorized Volkswagen dealer or service facility check the electrical system right away. Owner’s Manual, p. 316

What happens if I don’t reset the service reminder on my 2015 VW Golf after getting service elsewhere?

If you don’t reset it, incorrect information will be displayed. To reset after non-dealer service, switch off the ignition, press and hold the E button, switch on the ignition, release the E button, then confirm the reset message using the windshield wiper lever or steering wheel buttons. Owner’s Manual, p. 17

What size and type of replacement wiper blades should I buy?

Install a new wiper blade of the same length and type as your original blade. The procedure involves lifting the wiper arm away from the windshield, pressing and holding the release button, then pulling off the old blade with moderate force while lifting it toward the arm. Push the new blade on in the opposite direction until it latches, then fold the arm carefully back onto the windshield. Owner’s Manual, p. 326

What is the unlocking range for Keyless Access on a 2015 VW Golf?

The manual shows the unlocking range in figure 25 but does not specify an exact distance measurement for the Keyless Access system. Owner’s Manual, p. 54

How do I remove the trailer hitch ball on my 2015 VW Golf when not towing?

Remove the trailer hitch ball when you are not actively towing a trailer. This prevents the ball from causing damage to your vehicle or to others if your vehicle is hit from behind. After removal, you may want to carry the ball mount inside the vehicle and stow it securely for future use. Owner’s Manual, p. 152

Can you walk me through topping off coolant on my Golf?

a: Start by carefully unscrewing the expansion tank cap. Only refill if you can see coolant already in the tank—if the tank is empty, do not drive the vehicle and seek professional help. Add only new engine coolant meeting Volkswagen specifications, filling until the level stabilizes between the marked range lines. Never fill above the top edge. Finally, screw the lid tightly. In emergencies without proper coolant, add distilled water only and have the correct coolant ratio restored as soon as possible. Owner’s Manual, p. 312

When should I check the service schedule on my Golf?

You can view the current service schedule anytime the ignition is on, engine off, and vehicle stationary. Press and hold the E button until Service appears, release it, and the message displays. You can also access it through the Infotainment system. Owner’s Manual, p. 17

Does my 2015 Volkswagen Golf windshield have special coating requirements?

Heat-insulating windshields have a transparent metallic infrared-reflecting coating with an uncoated communications window above the inside rearview mirror. Do not block or cover this window with stickers, as it transmits signals to electronic components and accessories. Owner’s Manual, p. 119

What does the fuel filler cap indicator light mean on a 2015 Volkswagen Golf?

The indicator light signals that the fuel filler cap is not properly closed. Stop safely, switch off the engine and ignition, then open the fuel filler flap and reseat the cap by screwing it clockwise until you clearly hear a clicking sound. Owner’s Manual, p. 286
