Kawan.... where got 'huge saving'?! He's talking about the 1.4 roc lah. It's already 190+ including insurance. Summore if u chip it, then the price will even be closer.

oppss sorry my mistake.. i was talking more of the comparison between the 1.4 tsi golf and the golf gti.. wink.gif

No la, havent felt that before. Best to mention that to the SC when you bring in your car for service.

What petrol are you using?
*

was alternating between vpower 97 and shell 95 till the sudden jump in 97. then stayed with shell 95 only. problem is this shuddering of the engine only happens when u first start the engine after like 4-5hrs... when already warm up .. no issue.

You're really waiting till 15k to do your first service? I think I'll be doing it at 7.5k.

well tat was the advise i got fr my SC. i wanted to service at 10k (since most fully sync is a 10k cycle). but he told me js wait for 15k. Furhteremore i oso dun wanna screw with the scheduling in the car lah .. later hard to remember if i do it at odd figures.

i was alternating lah . one tank 97 then next refuel i use 95 mayb 2 times then go back to 97 one tank... forgotten whether when i was on 97 had that cold start knocking or not. might need to experiment later n fuel it with 97. sien now so expensive liaw 97... huge diff.

so meaning if continue using 95, will always giv this kind of knocking ? is that bad for the engine ?

238km/j.....wow, is it ur ride still stock? if 1.4 can get 238 on 6th gear (got one more gear to go), then the 'International Engine of The Year - 2009' award really meant for this TSI.....
*
I think it's a gti lah unless it's a chipped tsi. Coz I already pushed my car max. Floored it and after 210km, it'll js slowly increase in speed till abt 220 or so and usually after dat will hav to end d run. Some car sure will pop up etc n kacau ..lol

Did a "spirited drive" fr pj to Ipoh just now. 65 min traveling time. I was amazed by one pesona which managed to follow behind me for the longest time. Impressive for a 1.6. Was behind me for like 20min or so. His average Shud b ard 180km. notworthy.gif

At the SC now servicing my golf. btw The new replacement Silicone wiper for our Golf is rm95 per blade. so around rm190 for 1 front set. worth it or not ? or can source outside for better quality and cheaper ?

i've seen a used one for rm139k
you have a family and also fetch people at the back?
why? the car looks too normal or something? some rims could do the job  tongue.gif
indeed, hard to explain to others about what is special about the gti/golf in general  doh.gif
when i say to others i drive volkswagen they think i'm driving the beetle
and when i park the golf in front of them they still finding where's the VW? oh this one is vw?

another choice for the price range is new alfa romeo giuletta 1.4 turbo, price and power both around golf 1.4. cheaper than scirocco.

.. js me and my wifey. we dun plan to hav kids.. *sigh* shud hav gotten the rocco tsi instead ..haha
