what if u opt for the cheaper one which is price at 188k. can you modify that model to look the same as this one? (the bodykit)
*
Thats the full rieger kit, it is roughly 9k without exhaust. The 2.0 and 1.4 roc share the exact same bodyshape so from looking at the car, u cant actually tell wheter its 1.4/2.0 but i know the owner of that particular car..its a 2.0

Thanks for all d advice people  blush.gif  didn't expect you guys to 'wake me up'

Actually I got rejected once already, I thought I'd be able to get it this time hahaha. First time was the golf R rear lights  yawn.gif

why not work part time and earn your own cash for mods? unlikely your dad will say no if you spent your own hard earn cash, in fact, he might be proud of you. Just because u are studying doesnt mean u cant have side income...its so easy nowadays with the internet

what makes you think remapping will make your car smoother and improve drivability? badly tuned 'custom' msian maps is probably the no.1 cause of rough idle, knocking, too rich fuel mixture and other issues in VWs in msia. if this is your first car..i would stay FAR away form touching any sort of engine/ECU mods untill you are sure u know what u are doing. why muck up a brand new car with 5 year warranty?

Take DKtuning for example...do u know which parameters his tune will change? is he just increasing boost? how about ignition timing? how is he going to mate the increased turbo boost with the supercharger? they need ot work in tandem for the best performance

Up till now I've only tried Esso and Petronas' RON97 petrol. And sad to say, Petronas' 97 is not so easily available at all kiosks.  mad.gif  Personally, I prefer Mobil/Esso because it is so near my house. But my service advisor at the SC said that Petronas is the best. So, I just follow lor. U guys using what fuel? 95? With my previous ride, I felt that 95 is just a bit lacking in terms of power compared to 97. That's why I didn't bother to put 95 in my Golf now. Actually, not much difference in terms of RM per tankful. rolleyes.gif
*
eh? a full tank of ron97 vs ron95 for our cars is almost rm30. thats a big diffrence

I find shell 95 to be quite bad, i dont touch it at all, independent testing has shown that petronas 97 is among the best in msia in terms of octane rating but it varies from station to station

anyone exp this ar.. in the morning when start the car.. the engine seems to be quite loud and a bit of heavy vibration.. then after it warms up it'll b back to normal.. ?

*
were u on 95? i think the vibration at cold start is engine knocking, then the ECU retards the mixture when it detects lower octane fuel, and the vibration goes away. i have the same vibration at cold start. But if you flush your tanks with 97, by the 2nd full tank of 97, the vibration should be gone

im going in at first service at 5k. after that i will follow every 12-14k

Hey guys,thank you for all the help so far...

I don't mean to sound panic but i am panicking a bit.

The 'EPC' sign and went on for my polo. Read the manual but doesnt really explain a lot.

Anybody having the same problem?any suggestions?
*
no point worrying about it, it could be anything from a simple loose connection to your ECU about to blow up, so just pop by the dealership and have them do a fault scan, takes 5min

Thank you for the response. Really appreciate it.

Actually the EPC sign was on when i turn the key. But the sign went off immediately after i start my engine. Does the problem of my EPC still persist?do i still need to do the fault scan?
*
if the EPC sign doesnt stay on, then its called a "intermittent error" so its probably nothing serious just a loose connection/dirty connection. if it stays on after ignition, then u should get it checked out. If you dun want to go to your dealer, can visit any workshop with vagcomm..they normmaly charge rm50 for a scan or even FOC if they arnt busy

I am sad liao. Looks like I can't get the 1.4 TSi before CNY. Cergaz just informed me no more black. Got red and shark blue. My missus dont approve both colours. Looks like I have to wait for the 2011 car and miss out on the 1.38% int rate special offer by Affin.

Damn it!!

hey guys, im getting the golf 1.4 TSI in 2 weeks. just wanna know where do i get the MDI cable for the ipod? and wat size rims are suitable? i have already book one of the OZ racing rims but its 17. should i go 18 instead? thank you in advance.
*
stick with the OEM 17's, they are tough and solid. OZ ultras are lightweight and look good but very fragile. easily dented and dmged on our lousy roads. My 17" Denvers lasted me 2 years with no issues, just 8 months with my 18" OZ and all 4 were dented
