Cergaz gave me 2% discount for my Golf. Just received my car today.

Has anyone tried the Stage 1 ECU reflash yet? Will it void the 5-year warranty?

There has been much excitement, and speculation, since the announcement that Volkswagen has signed an MoU with DRB-Hicom to locally assemble cars at the latter’s Pekan plant. Everyone has their guesses (some incredibly sure) on the identity of the three models, but thanks to a statement from Volkswagen Group Malaysia (VGM), we now know that the list WILL NOT include models currently sold in Malaysia. Here’s the verbatim press statement:
Following the announcement in August on the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with DRB-HICOM Berhad to collaborate on local assembly, Volkswagen would like to reiterate the content of the MoU that both parties are still in the early stage of investigating local vehicle assembly. The joint plans envisage the production of Volkswagen models in Malaysia from 2012 onwards.

The matter is still under negotiations and as a policy, Volkswagen will not comment on ongoing discussions. Suffice it to say, the models / variants in negotiations to be locally assembled will not be the models which are currently offered in Malaysia.

VGM’s current range consists of the five-door Polo 1.2 TSI, New Beetle, Golf 1.4 TSI, Scirocco (160 PS/210 PS), Golf GTI, Passat CC, Eos, Tiguan and Touareg V6 SUV.


..... however dun blame me if they changed their minds.

Hi will like to remap as well. But my Golf TSi still has 4years 11 months warranty, LOL. I heard the APR remap can be changed back to stock via the cruise control. Is this true and it cannot be detected by the SC?

Bro, thanks for the info man...

Another question. I read that the seven-speed DSG is used in smaller front-wheel drive cars with smaller displacement engines with lower torque outputs, such as the latest Volkswagen Golf, due to it having a maximum torque handling capacity of 250 N·m (180 lb·ft).

Has anyone experience any detrimental effect after remapping?

WAHHHH

Any reason why you downgraded from APR? Can the APR re-flash back to stock using the cruise control?

I wanna do the remap too but which is better?
DKTuning
APR
ABT

I will be in Ipoh. Lemme know if anything comes up.

You can change the settings from the MFD.

Tested drive both the Golf Tsi and 308 Turbo (6-speed) on the same day. The 308 no fight la in terms of performance and handling. Somehow the Golf feels much more solid and faster than the 308.

Also heard there are a lot of complaints on the 308.

If they decide to assemble the Polo GTi here in Malaysia it will be cheaper.

Called my SA at Cergaz today as I wanted to change the HU. he informed me it will void my radio warranty only and will not affect other parts.

Suggest you call your SA to find out.

Well, this morning I sent my car to Wearnes VW and I told him my issue...He call the Service advisor at VW Jalan ipoht. After that, I asked him that am I eligible to claim a new battery because the radio causing the battery leaking off the energy. He replied that I'm not be able to claim a new battery because the battery warranty is over and subject based on individual driving condition. I was like...WTH ? I told him...Is not about individual driving condition, is because of the radio issue...He never reply anything to me.

From the VW 5-Year Warranty Terms and Condition

9. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Speedometer and sensors, odometer, tachometer, temperature gauges, horn, wiper motor and associated sensor, windshield washer reservoir, fluid level sensor, headlight washer pump and associated components, head light switch, brake light switch, turn signal switch, emergency flasher switch, door switches, back-up light switch, fog light switch, alarm system components, wiring harnesses and connectors (non-modified by after market installation), cruise control components, Starter motor unit including solenoid, Alternator unit, Voltage regulator, Coil unit, ignition locks and electrical components, knock sensors, infrared entry receiver (not for battery replacement), power door actuators and associated switches, sun roof motor, sun roof switches and relay, convertible top hydraulic motor and associated wiring, window regulator assemblies and motor, power window switches and associated wiring, side view mirror motors and associated wiring, sunshade motor, air bag sensors and warning lights and associated components, air bags, seat motors and heating elements and their relays, and multi media interface (MMI) components not related to navigation and sound system, ignition switch, air bag sensors, airbags, seat motors, heating elements, headlamp control units & horn.

Excluding: - Batteries, Light bulbs, Wiper blades/ rubbers, Distributor cap & Relays


Normally the Batteries being a consumable part is not cover by warranty. Please note the VW 5-year Warranty T&C above. However in Climacool case if the first SC at Jalan Ipoh is correct and that the radio drained his battery then its a car defect. if its proven car defect then the battery should be replaced.

Couple of weeks ago I installed a Dension Gateway 5 Bluetooth unit to the RCD 310. Some of the functions could not be used so I took my car to the SC for a diagnostic check. There was a major fault on the CAN bus. The SC told me to remove the bluetooth unit and cleared the fault for me. Did not say anything about voiding the warranty.

Anyway the HU is plug and play if the SC make any noises I can just replace it before servicing.

Maybe thinking of getting a VAG-COM

Dear sir you are too fast. I deleted my post before your reply.... Anyway I think you are correct and I am wrong unless of course Climacool changed the radio which causes the battery to drain.

I think its RM1000.

Is it cheaper to do stage 1 in S'pore than in Malaysia? Tempting but still afraid for the warranty
