Can't be helped mah, coz for the Roc its a 2 door car so more emphasis on the front passengers. Hence no rear air cond vents and rear cup holders as well wink.gif

yarloh ... no choice loh .. too bad dun hav front sensor and cruise control (tho i dun use it tat often but nice to have it). but while test driving it.. felt the exhaust sound is nicer and lower growl and tighter sounding ...

Well the handling doesn't really come too much into affect, the difference in weight is easily offset by a person's bodyweight as well. E.g. I am a fat guy and weigh over 90kg which would be around 20kg heavier than the average. So my weight itself would already offset the amount of weight savings using lighter rims. Hence I don't really believe that light rims will affect the handling. That is only taking weight into account. In terms of width of the rims, offset and others then it would be a different story altogether. All I know is that my friend who had the OZ Ultraleggeras dented his rims thanks to our pothole riddled roads a lot faster than his original detroits.

You should ask jwrx and valiance on their Rocs, I heard the modified exhaust (custom exhaust which they did at Everco), sounds cool and a nice low rumble to it. Go a few threads back, Valiance put up some pics on that.

yup wud probably look into that.. first thing .. tinting .. then sierra glow

The Golf TSI's wipers are really crappy. The shuddering is quite irritating and service advisors tell me it's "that way" for this make. Anyone with such an experience, and any easy fix?

yah v bad quality ... i'm opting to change to PIAA silicon wipers .. but not sure where to get it... saw it once in eoneos jusco .. but the SA don't know which model for Golf

I cant compare it as I still haven get my GTI. But then it is the best wiper i'd used before. Smooth, quiet and it have chemical compounds that makes rain beads up on your windscreen (if your windscreen is not chemically treated, this effects only last for about a month, which is my case). Visibility is excellent smile.gif

edit: forgot to mention the price, it is about rm190 per pair smile.gif

nice .. the price for our oem vw wipers also is rm180 per pair.. so quite reasonable priced.. i'll definitely go over soon ..tyvm

To dealer make sure he gives you the full amount before handing over the JPJ card. They usually will get a runner to do the necessary JPJ work inspection and all. If you have an outstanding loan with the bank, clear that first then only sell the car. Also sometimes most dealers will not require you to change the JPJ card to their name. It will still remain in your name so that when they sell the car it doesn't seem like it is 3rd hand or something along those lines. Make sure you write out a formal letter or document to verify that certain exchanges of funds documents is properly dated and signed.

tks bro .

the dealer just gav me a booking fees. said tomorrow will go with me to my bank and settle the remaining outstanding at the bank together with me. So after clearning i can pass the card to him ?

Normal. All VW's have circulate on off as default, i think its based on euro regulations.

the sound..no idea, could just be heat shield or exhaust bracket loose, easiest is just to listen to another polo

Hey Guys, just joined this forum. Currently driving a black Golf TSI mk6. Got the car 1 month ago. Anyway, just to share my experience with FA Wagen Johor. I bought my car in kl but since I'm stationed in Johor for the time being, decided to bring my car for the 1st service here in johor. First impression, not good. They were sharing the same place with volvo. I thought "Geez, this is going to take a long tim". And I was right. Came in at 10 in the morning and quoted my car will be ready only after 15:00. Since I'm off that day and the car had 300 km over due, what the heck. The service advisor is not friendly enough. I mean, c'mon, the least he could do was talk to me politely. Anyway, after 15.30, the car was still not ready. By this time I was already smoking 3 cigs in a row to control my anger. Got my car back at 16.00 and they've washed it. I checked under the hood and everything seemed to be ok except the coolant level in the expansion tank was too high. Had to siphon it out. And I was charged RM554 without alignment and balancing.  I will take the pain of driving back to kl and will never bring my car again to them. Anyway, care to share your experience on servicing your car?

PS: I was quoted RM1700 for the next service at 30k km.

1 mth ago and u drove 15k km ? ohmy.gif
