I wonder if people would be buying the head unit with the built in GPS I saw some folks selling in the VW Golf forums. Looks pretty cool but its extremely pricey for it.

If too noisy, blast your radio only hahaha. But to me, nothing is noisier than my old Honda Civic. That car is like deafening....

Hahaha...true also~ Just turn it loud.
Golf's audio system not bad... icon_idea.gif

I've changed from the stock 16" rims + tyres ( refer pic 1 and 2) to the GTi's 17" Denver rims with Bridgestone Potenza RE050 225/45/17.
The rims already polished to silver and inside coated with black paint. smile.gif

dude, thats why i am asking "can rocco ferry 5 people comfortably"

sigh, why some people have to respond so aggressively? i wasn't asking blanks. i can't test drive every single car in VW unless i want them to brand me "gao gao zhan mou pong chan". the 1.4 TSi was really good and close to what i was looking for, but just wondering how "less good" the 1.2 would be, if anyone here knows.

thx 1st.

You can test drive every single car in the showroom...I've test drove Rocco 2.0, GTI 2.0, Passat CC and Toureg V6. Been Invited to the lauching of golf GTI last year (the lauching event not like BMW F10 tongue.gif).
Dun worry dude, they are friendly and always welcome customer to test drive smile.gif
The SA call me n arrange test drive when there is there is a new model coming in Malaysia, just that i'm busy with my work.. rclxub.gif

Question is do you mind the 2 doors? Do you find it a hassle? Do you fetch many people often?
Regarding the ECU remap, some people say it void warranty and some people say don't. I am not sure myself. Did you mentioned this to your SA?
I am looking into the Roc 1.4 too, test driving it this week. smile.gif

I thing that i dislike rocco is the rear sit can fit 2 not 3 ;(
The rest of it perfect and stylish smile.gif

Hi bro, could you kindly elaborate on the problems or issues you've faced for those branches? A bit unfair if you make accusations without backing it up. Hope you understand.

Hi guys,

Long time didn't post here..If you guys having troubles with the service in Sg.Besi or 22, why dont you try to send your car to VW Jalan ipoh (NEW). They are authorised dealer and service centre, openned around 1month+. Just try send your car to the service over there.

I didn't sell the ori head unit.

Ok, the owner of Exotic Mods gave me a ride in his Mk6 GTI today, very nice!

Found out some new stuff from him:

1) RNS 510 has a new firmware which will fix a lot of the issues that has been plaguing the previous owners. They also carry the RNS 510 at Exotic Mods and it costs RM5200 there.
2) They also have the Golf R tail lights, RM2600 if I am not wrong for the set as well
3) They also provide ECU remapping which is their own mod, RM2800 for stage 1, TSI -> 207bhp, GTI -> 250bhp

He brought me and 2 other friends, his Mk6 is a Stage 2 GTI, me and my two other friends who are all more than 90kg each and he is wheel spinning his front tyres at 1st and 2nd gear. And he is running on 19". Damn kau poisonous man talk to him. So many mods available there tongue.gif
*
does he cover warranty ?
I know some SA got APR's remap programme and they also provides FOC demo for 6hours...Anytime you want, they just load the programme into your ride

No waiting list but if you want a 2011 manufactured Golf TSI, the cars are coming in March next year. I think there may still be some 2010 stock left over.

VW Jalan iPoh got stock golf 1.4 and can get it within 2-4weeks.

Yes, if you do any mods at Exotic mods, just service your car at FA Wagen (Jln 222) and say that you got the mods from Exotic Mods. Warranty will still be in place.

But most ECU remaps are undetectable anyway. I am planning on the APR one as well, rather go straight to APR instead then ask the SA to do it tongue.gif

FA jalan 222 very far...How about jln besi or Jalan ipoh ?
Pls let me know when u going to APR, mayb we do it together will get better price tongue.gif

hi Mavik,

  i tought ECU remap will be easy to detect if we go to servicing at Volkswagen. that is why some perfer go for stage 1 easy plug and play solution like ventura chip tuning. unplug it when you go to software update or servicing , then plug it back after serviced. (only 3 cable connection anyway)

http://www.venturatuning.nl/merken/chiptun...-tsi-105pk.html

  i do see some feedback from vagsg forum that if you happend to go service at volkswagen and get a software update, it will erase your ECU remaps, then u need to go the mod shop and redo mapping again. but i do agree that custom ecu remap will give you more tune compare with chip tuning. IMHO  blush.gif
*
QUOTE(Mavik @ Dec 1 2010, 09:32 AM)
If you use chipping solutions like Ventura where it is obvious there is a chip connected to the ECU of course VW will see it.

The ones done by APR or the Custom one by Exotic Mods are direct porting or flashing your actual car chip so there are no connections needed at all. Just go nego with them, that if ever the case that VW service center wipes it out, they will just plug in the engine map again. To them its basically just connecting a PC and remaping the ECU. Only difference is that APR is more expensive than the Exotic Mods one but ABT is still the most expensive.  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

Abit confused, do guys mind to explain in detail ?

Dont say like that...you should be proud on what you get. Not everyone got this oppotunity to own it.
Your dad love you very much thumbup.gif

Actually, i felt that...golf's (1.4 or GTI) powers enough for me..if you comparing price of other brand.
Never regret buying it.
Althought u mod to +++ horsepowers, u wont fully ultilize it and even u fully use it..it will cause to pump more petrol moneyflies.gif .
I rather save it for bodykit...looking forward Golf R LED tail light happy.gif
