Malaysians generally do not like 2 door cars, and the GTI is meant to be a volume seller. No point bringing in a 2 door which no one will buy in sufficient quantity

thks man...but pls dun drop by...theres nothing on display nowadays, as its all done online...lat time used to be Osir, APR and VW stuff

quad exhaust will range from around 1800 like what vailance did to about 3k+, depending on what sort of tips u choose. Yes, the everco backbox will fit the 1.4 Golf

True no one will tell you the exact numbers, but 15% is the max you should blow on a car loan monthly, basically you need 10 k monthly pay to own an inspira or less , so that works out to about 20 k monthly pay to own a golf gti... Sad but true fact in Malaysia. So there you are , a dose of reality with practicality

Dude,

15% might be the "ideal" situation, but thats obviously not the case in malaysia, otherwise all u see on the roads will be kancils and Viva's. the real figure is closer to 35-55% of disposable income. You just have to look at the sheer number of vious/city on the road drivien by young execs at the RM2000-2800 salary range

Dude,

15% might be the "ideal" situation, but thats obviously not the case in malaysia, otherwise all u see on the roads will be kancils and Viva's. the real figure is closer to 35-55% of disposable income. You just have to look at the sheer number of vious/city on the road drivien by young execs at the RM2000-2800 salary range

According to my friend at CIMB, a lot of people who are earning RM4-5K (gross) are buying RM100K+ cars nowadays e.g. peugeots, golfs, polos, etc.

I believe it's...

- Golf GTi only
- X amount of years only (I think it was 3 years max)
- and some other terms and conditions

I think the only other offer that beats this is the 0% interest for Ford Focus... that day I checked with SA, its
- Petrol Variant Ford Focus only
- 15% downpayment
- 5 years I think

pity no 0% for the TDCI...

Bro, just log an official complain or better yet, call VGM and tell your story, then only submit your complain via e-mail to them, and see how will they respond to that. I feel sorry for you for all the trouble that you're dealing with with a 200k worth of car.

Actually, when I took delivery of my car, the salesrep was there to guide me through, telling me the use/function of every knob/button in the car. How to do this, how to do that. Tested everything in the car before I left with the car. Of course, after that, I also went back to iron out some small issues. But overall my experience was ok.

Tired man...with all this non sense. Buy Jap car also dont have so many incidents. Never has any issues when I bought my Mazda 3.

when u say ttdi u mean Cergaz ? i oso went back 3-4times due to sound when i turn my steering... had to leave my car there full day 3x liaw.. still cannot sort it out.. made it even worst... the last repair was mayb 90% but not like the day i took my car no sound. They blamed it on the GTI rims i used (17" Denver). Said TSI suspension cannot support the weight and hence the noise fr suspension when i turn my steering... sucks... n there i was thinkin of getting the rocco fr them also...

i think i might need to go to a more established SC with better engineers coz heard cergaz is v new in terms of their support team... any good recommendations ? coz after they took apart my suspensions, steering etc ... din feel the same fr when i took the car anew...

True.

I believe there is no process flow on how Cergaz does things. My problems never ending..first have to change car cause got electrical fault found during PDI. This was on the day that the car was due to be registred. They could have done the PDI before settling on my K1, cause my insurance was issued aledi under the old chasis.have to cancel the insurance. Nevermind ..2 days later ok new car ready. BUT..radio not working...damn kau jia lat..why they cant sort all this during PDI? Unless they PDI it after getting road tax. Its kinda of silly because problems found during PDI will delay the delivery of car. They should have PDI it..then only proceed to settle road tax. This will save alot of this last minute failures and faults.

Really shows they are incompetent. Utterly disgraceful. VGM should reconsider their franchise!! A nasty letter is being drafted to VGM soon.

No, this actually can't be happening in the 1st place. How can VGM issue a license for them or any other dealers to open a 3S while the dealer itself clearly can't handle this kind of problems? And to make it worst, blaming on the rims, or radio (this happen to one of the forumer in V1 thread) since clearly that wasn't the issue. In a way, VGM should take part of the blame in some after sales services. I think, if they monitor all their dealers properly, then MAYBE we all get the service that we as a customer deserve.

Hi Sifu's all

Just wondering, any one knows the interest rate these days if I plan to purchase a Golf GTI? Or is there any interest rate promotion that VW are having these days?

Thanks ... interested in the car but would like to have an expectation of cash flows.

There were quotes or rumours about from the dealers that it could be priced within the RM260k-RM280k region for the Golf R. Of course, these figures are confirmed.

None so far, don't wanna void the 5-year warranty. I think most of the new owners as well are afraid of that.

your car is brand new...give it time to loosen up, it will improve after your first service. But from what i have seen so far, the 1.4 is def not as economical as claimed by VW, its giving the same/worse milege then a GTI. My old S1 Gti could do easily 550-600 per tank

Im also getting 460-490 on my tsi roc... vmad.gif

My old GTI, i could still go 12km after the range hit 0km, wasnt testing it on purpose...really ran out of petrol and cannot find station

as per spec = 55 liter

however, normally I will get around 48-49 liter after refilling the tank (auto stop) when the fuel warning light up and the range is around 20-30km left....

My best FC for TSi 14+km/l I did up to 685km before refuelling and even then still got 40km to empty per display. It was 675 km when initial fuel warning came so still can touch 700km if I took the risk.

when u say ttdi u mean Cergaz ?  i oso went back 3-4times due to sound when i turn my steering... had to leave my car there full day 3x liaw.. still cannot sort it out.. made it even worst... the last repair was mayb 90% but not like the day i took my car no sound. They blamed it on the GTI rims i used (17" Denver). Said TSI suspension cannot support the weight and hence the noise fr suspension when i turn my steering...    sucks... n there i was thinkin of getting the rocco fr them also...

i think i might need to go to a more established SC with better engineers coz heard cergaz is v new in terms of their support team... any good recommendations ? coz after they took apart my suspensions, steering etc ... din feel the same fr when i took the car anew...

RM3.7K with camera, handsfree bluetooth n installation. Sounds ok I suppose if you add an amp it will sound better.

Thing is its plug and play so i can change the HU back to stock before i go for a service.

Most of the mileage claims by car manufacturers are driving at constant speed 80-90km/h. Try this on the North-South hi-way on the TSi and you can get about 6l/100km.

I got like 630km on my first tank for Golf TSI 50%-50% driving. Which was not too bad IMHO.

Nope stage 1 only. Me thinks the limitng factor is that DSG max tolerance level at 250Nm torque. But stage 1 already get 200bhp and 300Nm aledi wor. You need more power meh???

just tested the Polo... I must say it's a really nippy car!
It goes up to 100 really fast shocking.gif
Corners at 80 really better and firmer than a Fiesta (IMHO)... I took both cars on the same corner but the Fiesta didn't give that confidence when taking that same curved 90 degree corner...

My only gripe is that ride is a bit stiff, it really is a basic car without much frills inside (except for the many airbags and nice engine), no iPod connectivity as well...

Tiganasfx is correct here. Yan you can tell your SC that they are just bullshitting you.

Say that when you booked the car via the brochure, the brochure shows the car with 18" rims.

I bet anyone will be excited to know if their upcoming rides will come with some bonuses apart from the standard specification. Having the desire to know hence asking is totally normal

Having something extra/different to differentiate a newer batch of the car is also a good thing. On the other hand, if it really looks bad on a gti, then we can sell it for some cash to fund other mods right? hehe

i am sure any upcoming golf gti/tsi owner will be curious too smile.gif

Of course it is nice if your new Golf comes with some 'extras'. If u let me choose, I'd rather have the RNS or RCD510 thrown in as bonus than the DRL. Hehehe. U and I know that's not going to happen. blush.gif Anyway, the RCD310 produces quite decent music, at least to noob ears like mine.

Whether the gti looks good with the drl or not, is very subjective. Some like their coffee hot, some like it cold. Some like fat chicks, some like slim ones....... rclxms.gif

Tiganasfx is correct here. Yan you can tell your SC that they are just bullshitting you.

Say that when you booked the car via the brochure, the brochure shows the car with 18" rims.

Really makes u consider whether to sell of the car and get something else instead, doesn't it? I felt the same way when I first got delivery of mine. But after thinking about the lost I'm gonna get, I reconsidered. sweat.gif

Wow..440km sucks man. Yeah leave it in auto. Dont fall into the temptation of pedal to the metal..if lightfooted easily can make 600km. I am on my second tank (but Vpower racing) trip ...about 280km now and I've got like 2/3 tank left..

But seriously 440km on easy driving means something is wrong with the engine.

Model VW Passat lebih murah
Oleh Ahmad Farizal Hajat

2011/02/28

Dipasang di kilang DRB-Hicom, harga ditawar RM154,000 seunit

MODEL pemasangan tempatan (CKD) Volkswagen Passat hasil jalinan pakatan antara DRB-Hicom Bhd dan Volkswagen AG (VW) akan dijual pada harga amat berdaya saing, sekitar RM154,000 seunit, iaitu kira-kira 30 peratus lebih murah berbanding sekitar RM220,000 bagi yang diimport sepenuhnya (CBU).

Model perintis hasil pakatan kerjasama konglomerat automotif Malaysia dan syarikat automotif terbesar Eropah itu akan mula dipasarkan November ini.
Sumber industri berkata, penurunan harga itu hasil pengecualian cukai susulan daripada program CKD serta pengurangan kos pengeluaran berikutan penggunaan komponen tempatan, iaitu sekitar 40 peratus.
Katanya, meskipun harga bagi Passat CKD itu dikurangkan dengan ketara, namun dari segi kualiti, ia akan tetap mengikut dan menepati spesifikasi pengeluaran antarabangsa VW.

“Buat permulaan, harga Passat yang dipasang dan dikeluarkan di kilang pemasangan milik DRB-HICOM di Pekan, Pahang akan ditawarkan 30 peratus lebih rendah daripada model CBU, sebelum ia dikurangkan lagi secara berperingkat bergantung kepada peningkatan peratusan penggunaan kompo-nen tempatannya.

“Justeru, melihat kepada penurunan harga serta jangkaan sambutan menggalakkan, kami menjangkakan DRB-Hicom akan membuka tempahan bagi model itu selewat-lewatnya dua minggu sebelum pelancarannya di pasaran,” kata sumber industri itu kepada Berita Harian di Kuala Lumpur.

Beliau berkata, jika DRB-Hicom mampu meningkatkan peratusan kandungan komponen tempatan pada Passat dalam tempoh beberapa tahun akan datang, harga model itu dijangka mampu dikurangkan sehingga mencecah RM130,000 seunit.
“Buat permulaan, program CKD Passat itu hanya membabitkan peratusan kandungan komponen tempatan yang kecil, iaitu sekitar 40 peratus, namun DRB-Hicom, menerusi program vendornya, sudah memiliki beberapa strategi untuk meningkatkannya sehingga 60 peratus dalam tempoh dua hingga tiga tahun akan datang,” jelasnya.

Program CKD model Volkswagen itu susulan termeterainya perjanjian pelesenan dan pakatan antara DRB-Hicom dan VW pada Disember tahun lalu sehingga membolehkan konglomerat automotif tempatan itu memasang dan mengeluarkan kenderaan jenama Volkswagen di Malaysia.

Perjanjian yang dicapai selepas kira-kira dua tahun berunding itu, akan menyaksikan DRB-Hicom memperkenalkan tiga model Volkswagen dan mengeluarkan kira-kira 30,000 unit kenderaan VW setahun menjelang 2015, sebelum ditingkatkan lagi pengeluarannya kepada 60,000 unit pada 2020.

Volkswagen Passat adalah model sulung yang akan dikeluarkan di kemudahan milik DRB-Hicom itu, sebelum disusuli model Jetta dan satu lagi model yang akan diumumkan kelak.

Selain dipasarkan untuk pasaran tempatan, model Volkswagen yang dipasang DRB-Hicom itu, akan turut dieksport ke negara ASEAN lain mulai 2013.

Dont forget this is the China Passat or Passat B6 not the Passat CC being sold currently. Golfs will not be CKD for now at least not in the immediate future.

Hi Guys..

Just to keep you guys in the loop. I just went to SC for get them to rectify the rattling sounds near the B pillars for my wife's Golf TSI. They told me VGM has found a solution and they can start rectifying the problem next week onwards. I am also made to understand that this problem is quite common. So anyone of you guys having this problems go to the SC and get it sorted.

And to update you guys on the DRL. Grats to the 2011 TSI buyers, the car comes with DRL. Only TSI gets DRL, GTI dont have it.Looks very nice. But damn painful for 2010 buyers, feel like kena conned. Should we start a petition for 2010 buyers to get VGM to subsidised retrofiting the car with DRL at minimal cost?

I think we should cause the TSI was lunched only 6 months ago and now they update the car with new stuffs. Any input will be great..

The TSI owners who bought in 2010 knew what they were getting when they bought it. Cannot really blame VW for that. If they are kind enough to offer some subsidy for u guys to retrofit the lights, then VW is indeed very kind, because they are not obligated to do so. They are not cheating the 2010 owners lah. Cars always get updated mah. Just like ppl who buy iPad in Malaysia. Within a few months, now iPad 2 is out. So how? Apple subsidize old owners to get the new one?! doh.gif

Of course cars get updated. Facelifting is very common. But you see the car was only officially lunched in September 2010. People took delivery in Oct/Nov. So imagine those buyers who now reliased..err...4 months down the road ..the same car gets updated. While I understand your point, its the buyers choice. Me..I knew what I am getting at when I paid 156k for the car. I dont expect VW to tell buyers wait for the 2011 model got DRL. But all things being equal, the 2010 owners have the right to feel pissed. Its like you buy a new car but 4 months on...ooppss you get less for the same money. It does not bode well in marketing strategy. Its like the person who bought the passat cc with normal auto box only to reliase 6 months later the DSG was vailable at the same price.

p.s Your example of Ipad2. At least apple cut the price for Ipad1. Secondly, the Ipad2 wont hit the shore in malaysia for sometime maybe until like end of the year. In our case we paid same money wor and TSI owners only get to enjoy the 'new' feeling for 4 months nia..so the example is not quite right.

Of course cars get updated. Facelifting is very common. But you see the car was only officially lunched in September 2010. People took delivery in Oct/Nov. So imagine those buyers who now reliased..err...4 months down the road ..the same car gets updated. While I understand your point, its the buyers choice. Me..I knew what I am getting at when I paid 156k for the car. I dont expect VW to tell buyers wait for the 2011 model got DRL. But all things being equal, the 2010 owners have the right to feel pissed. Its like you buy a new car but 4 months on...ooppss you get less for the same money. It does not bode well in marketing strategy. Its like the person who bought the passat cc with normal auto box only to reliase 6 months later the DSG was vailable at the same price.

p.s Your example of Ipad2. At least apple cut the price for Ipad1. Secondly, the Ipad2 wont hit the shore in malaysia for sometime maybe until like end of the year. In our case we paid same money wor and TSI owners only get to enjoy the 'new' feeling for 4 months nia..so the example is not quite right.

well... if u bought an ipad1 in the last two weeks u get a $100 rebate from apple... and u can even opt for an upgrade!

Has anyone sent their Polo TSI for service or for engine oil top up yet? What oil did they use? I called the dealer the other day and they said that they sell the oil in liters but I'll have to bring my own container!

I'm not sure what specification they use as well, it's probably Castrol, but does it have to be compliant to VW505 00, VW502 00 or VW504 00??? Or does VW507 00 cover all these?? Anyone actually topped up their engine oil yet?

went to Glenmarie today as well to test the GTI. SA said not sure if 2011 GTI comes with DRL but 1.4 TSI definitely has DRL. I think the DRL is pretty cool looking.
SA also said that if take GTI 2010, he will free Golf R Tail lamp.

Any discount for the 2010 model? Went to Cergaz (the one near TTDI) and they're giving 2% (around RM4k) discount and some really low interest rates on the 2010 GTI.

So tempted to angkat and be damned with the 2011 model!

Anyone here knows of a dealer who can offer 5% discount i.e. RM10k?

I booked mine in Wearnes. The offer I got for GTI 2010 is 2% discount, 1.57% interest rate for 7y loan and free Vkool tinting. Paid the balance this morning, the car should be ready in 1 week. My SA told me that the car is actually 2011 production. She knows this based on the chasis number of the car. However, the Malaysian custom did not recognize this as 2011 car, so VW Malaysia declares them as 2010 car. I do not know how far this is true. According to the SA, there are 300 units available.

Can't really say that because any sort of light does prove to have a better chance of being spotted by drivers. If your statement held true, then why did they ask motorcyclists to turn on their lights even during the day and why are we moving towards LED traffic light bulbs instead of the conventional halogen type. The fact that LED lights prove 95% efficiency and the brightness being able to be spotted on a bright and sunny day already does help.

Yup. If you check the VIN number its actually 2011 car. I read somewhere if the vehicle is produced after August..its considered next year but I can't be certain.

Hi guys,

Here are 2 things that were pointed out to me during inspection of my new Golf 1.4 TSi 2011:

1) DRL combo headlamps
2) Gear shifter (now more roundish instead of the square shaped shifter seen on 2010 models)

Vehicle will be sent for inspection next week with actual delivery by end of next week, fingers crossed.

Will post up pictures of the shifter if no one beats me to it smile.gif

Your garmin should come with a mounting disc. The dics should be fixed permanently on the dashbord. Then the suction cup should be fitted on this dics.

Haha. I beg to differ. Her knowledge wasnt that extensive when i enquired about some technical aspects of the car, nonetheless she was very friendly and patient with me...even called to follow up after a few days to see if i wanted to book...service ok la...but i still think VW Glenmarie offers the better deal compared to Jln Ampang's.

I have a very old Garmin, model 200 or 205. I also can't remember correctly. When I place it in it's holder, I can balance it nicely on the dashboard without having using the suction cup because the part above the dashboard is a little rubbery. Of course if u are going to do hard cornering, then no choice lah, u'll have to use the suction cup on the disc.

well, is just diff personal experience... i'm fine with it as long as SA is honest & helpful, without sale gimmick & empty promises.
Was surveying since sept last yr, went to diff dealers some was bad some ok (base on first impression). Most of them dont really know the techincal parts except from the brochure. Google is your best friend anyway. For my case everything is handled smoothly & well informed during the process, most importantly i got myself a good 2011 deal. biggrin.gif


Added on March 6, 2011, 5:49 pmbtw, the lowest interest rate has dropped 0.1 to 0.5% for gti with 3 yrs loan

Depending on the amount of the loan and the repayment period. The higher the loan amount (or the bigger percentage of the purchase price) and the longer the repayment period, the lower it is. I got 2.8% for a 50K loan for a TSI this month.

On a separate topic, anyone knows if the car needs running in? I meant to ask, does the engine need breaking in? And what does breaking in entail?

Yeah because the Razor kit comes with a lot of carbon fibre parts such as the front bonnet and the rear spoiler. The front bonnet alone itself is around USD$2000. Hence the high price tag for the entire kit.

Found a complete breakdown on the prices of the kit here.

For all those who are asking about run in period, there is no run in period for most if not all of the new cars produced nowadays at least in the last decade.....BUT you are recommended to change your engine oil halfway before your manufacturer first scheduled service...

The VW owner manual recommended a run-in period but you are not required to change the engine oil.

Yup, not required to change the oil but actually top up the oil. Damn these turbo engines do use a lot of engine oil!

I booked my TSI Golf in January. Expecting to get and ready in mid March latest, that's what the SA told me.

The SA called and said Sorry, there is delayed in shipment and the car will only reach Malaysia end of March. And then it needs go thru Custom, inspection this n that and I will only get it end of April.

I just sold my car only, the owner took it on Monday, I was looking for buyer in Feb and found it, so I quickly sell it, thought I will have my new car in March, mana tau.. delay until end of April. Means 1 month + without car!!

Thanks to Forumers here, I called FA Wagen Glenmarie and they have 2011 stocks for Golf TSI. The good news is, it is with DRL!!!
3rd week or end of March can get car liao. I will switch to here.

FYI, the LOL SA even said if cancel deposit/booking fee of the 3k I paid, it will forfeit RM500. LOL!! I got advised, it should be full refund !! If they want to forfeit, the advisor asked me to call VGM!!
See what the punishment the SA will get ha...

Be careful of dishonest SA!!!

To those who booked their TSI or GTI, is there any discounts offered?
Also the interest rate for the loan. I was told that it is around 2.6% and only 2010 GTI has the 0.5% interest rate for the first 3 years.

As I understand it the booking fee is fully refundable. No questions asked I believe its a policy set by VGM.

Oh yes please tell us which SC or the SA who tried to con you. I myself have some bad experiance with my SC. We must avoid such centres.

the reason behind changing the engine oil at 5 k is to remove the microscopic flakings of metals ..............from your 'running in' period....oh yes and filter too if you are a heavy footed driver.....but the filter bit is a little too much tho

correct me if I'm wrong but, VW cars do not require an oil change @ 5k. Something got to do with the engine has undergo a pre-running in at their factory.

The showroom is in Wearnes Jalan Ampang.

I thought that is consider very bad, con me the following:
- date of delivery - delayed 1 month later
- not refundable full amount
- lies on the reasons of the delay

But this is worst! Earlier I said, I called FA Wagen Glenmarie that they have the color I want for Golf TSI. Earliest delivery is the 3rd week of the month, latest is 4th week of this month. But I called VGM, they said they very suprised to hear that because FA Wagen Glenmarie have very limited stock of Golf TSI and the color I want is no longer available, not even in the next shipment list. So Suprise the SA told me yes, yes we have. LOL!! Another professional CON MAN!!!

Double thumbs up to this person in charge in VGM, very friendly and efficient, help me to check both FA Wagen and Wearnes Managers and call me back immediately. After seek VGM advise, is better to hold on to current one, rather than involve in another RIDE to Holland.

yes like i said nowadays most engines have a running-in at the factory when assembled, therefore the inverted commas for the "running in " period when ppl just bought the cars but some car enthusiast still recommend an early oil change for the very first time....lol 'virgin' oil change...

Was quoted RM4k for the DRL lights at Glenmarie while shopping around for my GTI. A bit cheaper lah but still think it's a bit too expensive sad.gif

Will probably still get it in the end but I think I'll wait until the price drops a bit (here's hoping).

I think its a norm in continental cars. Mercs and BMWs also have that feature. Not sure of other makes. I think its kinda good feature la coz it enables us to see the road curb behind.

My friend had ordered Golf on December and his SA promised can get early end of February.... but end up with the usual lame excuses... getting delays after delays...

I read here earlier, that there's one "legendary" female SA who always gives many empty promises and lame excuses to customers.. Can anyone kindly point out which branch is that SA located in?

Thanks in advance notworthy.gif

There are a couple of things you all need to note as well.

When they say you are getting a 2011 Golf, you need to make sure that it is a manufactured date 2011 rather than registered in 2011.

Also in car manufacturing, there are certain periods (end of the year) where it is made for the following year. For example, December manufactured models are deemed to be 2011 as well.

Hence there are differences.

Otherwise, I think those without DRL's and you are paying the same rates, have been conned.

Yeah is true..
It's quite weird the Cars come in the same batch (same shipment), but some have DRL, some without DRL.
What I think is ... without DRL = Manufacture in December 2010 but deemed as 2011 model
With DRL = Manufacture in year 2011..

Yeah Bluescreamer mentioned that a couple of months back. He was trying to find people who are interested in it and if he could get a few people, he can get discount from the DK Tuning fellas for a group buy.

There are several stages depending on which car.

TSI - Stage 1 only available

GTI/Roc2.0 - Stages 1, 2, 3

Prices can range from RM2700 (some custom remaps are cheaper) to the most expensive is the official ABT one from the ABT showroom in Glenmarie, which is around RM6k.

Other more popular remaps (you can check the VW Golf forums) include
- APR
- ABT (mentioned above)
- MTM
- Revo

There are quite a fair bit of other brands as well, for example, in the UK, there is a group called VW Racing and they have their own stage 1 remap and its covered by the VW warranty there!

Btw no such thing as not voiding the warranty. If they want to find out they can.

That said I want to do it too .... soon biggrin.gif

Wow..440km sucks man. Yeah leave it in auto. Dont fall into the temptation of pedal to the metal..if lightfooted easily can make 600km. I am on my second tank (but Vpower racing) trip ...about 280km now and I've got like 2/3 tank left..

But seriously 440km on easy driving means something is wrong with the engine.

are you serious something is wrong? well when its on dsg the gear change is a bit slow. it pulls all the way up to 3000rpm before it changes. so i decided to start shifting it myself. ive tried ron 95,97 and v-power racing. i cannot see the difference except paying a lot more. i got 440 on 95 max that is. till no more petrol left on the indicator, 97 i get 380 and vpower about 390.

The upshifts depends on your driving style. It takes time for the ECU to get adjusted to your own driving style. Like for me I like to rev it quite high before a gear shifts. After driving that way, I notice that my upshifts are around the 3k rpm as well.

Then when I swapped to a more moderate driving style and less revving and normal cruising, upshifts is around the 2k+ rpm

Hello everyone

Just got back from booking my 2010 GTI at Sunway Pyramid. Look for Jenny ... RM4k discount + 2 free service + cash back + goody bag. She's based in Glenmarie by the way.

I think this is the best deal in Klang Valley and I've been to all the dealers. There are deals also for other VW cars so head there if you're interested.

Now all that's left for me is wait for my car to come cry.gif

Actually you should ask for more than just the 4k discount. The best discount my friend gotten was 12k off for the 2010 Golf GTI.

Stressssss ... but they did offer me around RM10k discount but it was with the normal interest rate lah.

Did my calculation and I felt that I'd rather have the lower interest rate.

Depends on how you plan to manage your cash flow I guess.

Now thinking what mod to do once I get the car ... change the ICE head-unit or go for Golf R tail lights blink.gif

Wah ... major poison blush.gif

Anyways, read your website (great one by the way) and I am quite interested in the Sierra Glow treatment.

How much did it cost you and how is treatment so far? Still doing it's job after 6 months?

Despite what I just said, I'll probably do the Sierra Glow thingy first ... then followed by window tinting ... then followed by the Head unit upgrade ... then followed by the Golf R rear lights ... then followed by the front DRL's ... then followed by bankruptcy ... then followed by stealing money from a bank ... then followed by 18" rims and tyres ... then followed by ECU Remap ... then followed by .................................. rclxub.gif

Tested the Golf GTI today, the experience of driving that machine just got stucked in my head since afternoon. What a machine...
I don't know about other people but for me, so far this is the best car I've ever driven.
It started off with the S mode, which I've mistakenly shifted and I didn't realize until the SA told me. I stepped on the pedal and it went all the way so fast, and it was seriously exciting.
I'm just not used to the brakes, a bit too sensitive for me. Other than that, it is awesome.
Got an offer for more than 10k discount and interest rate is around 2.6%. I'm not sure the other offer which have much lower interest, 0.5% and lesser discount.
Initially was keen on the TSI but after tested the GTI, I almost forgotten about the TSI, as if it never existed. LOL!

U'll get used to the brakes lah. GTi is of course more powerful than the TSI, but then again, it is 40k more expensive wor. More expensive car, more expensive roadtax, insurance and things like that.

Yea, I agree that it is kinda overpriced.
But overall it is worth the price, also the resale value is kinda good.

just asking as i just got my 17" denver painted to mk6 detroits, only for rm500. it looks nice in darker lighting
basically getting both benefits of denver and detroits tongue.gif

Mind sharing pics of how they look like on your car?

Was considering this as one of the mods but quite reluctant to move up to 18" due to cost and ride comfort considerations.

Cheers bro.

I saw on Hypertune that the replica charactere rims were going for RM2500 for brand new. I think you can probably go to the shop and get a little bit more discount during the nego process as well and when paired with a set of tyres then you can get a better deal.

I read here earlier, that there's one "legendary" female SA who always gives many empty promises and lame excuses to customers.. Can anyone kindly point out which branch is that SA located in?

Went to have a look at the so-called "GTi KILLER", Mazda 3 MPS today. Didn't really impress me. Other than a bigger engine which produces more power and torque, I don't see any other plus points. Ooops... there is one, the price brows.gif RM180k, 'so cheap'! The exterior is still ok lah, with a big scoop in front, big rims with low profile tyres, twin exhaust. But the interior is just typical mazda 3. Nothing to shout about. No leather seat, no eletric seat, the panels are all plastic. The clutch of the manual tranny is quite hard, need to stomp on it. I think I prefer our DSG more. Or is it just me getting lazier by the minute. whistling.gif All I can say is, I've no regrets not waiting for this to get launched and got the GTi instead. thumbup.gif

Yep it is a used one. All four rims for RM2600 minus. I think brand new from VW could be very ex though.

Beating German engineering/workmanship would be tough. The level of fit-and-finish in a GTI is truly top-notch. Of course, the more you pay, the better things you get. smile.gif

I've decided to wait for the new batch GTI which my SA say will arrive on 1st week May. The only new feature confirmed is the front DRL with no price increase but the interest rates will be the normal 2.5-2.7% rates. I just saw today in the showroom the new batch scirocco 2.0, it now comes with USB. I believe this was not in last year's batch? Anyone knows whether the new batch GTI will come with features like say auto cruise, 18" rims or RCD510 perhaps?

Definitely something I'll consider doing when I receive my GTI .... damn stress lah waiting for the stooopid car, can't sleep at night cry.gif

Sigh, I know how you feel. I was just told I will only get the car in mid may. That's still another 2 months away and I may need to let go my current car to my new buyer. Anyone got a GTI that I could rent for a month? tongue.gif

Btw, i suppose you are waiting for the new batch? Where did you book yours? What colour did you choose?

Thanks, I suppose the 18 incher is quite unlikely but I'm hoping USB and Auto Cruise will be included. It doesnt make sense that these are in the 1.4 TSI but not in the 210k GTI!!

Not really ... actually getting the 2010 car. Can't wait any longer and was attracted with all the discounts offered and the low interest rate. I'm a bit kedekut you see tongue.gif

Actually booked mine at Sunway Pyramid (they were having some sort of show) last week and got lots of freebies. The show was attached to the Glenmarie branch and so far no complaints ... very flexible, responsive and quick to act (stuff like loan application, etc).

Was split between grey and black initially but in the end opted for black. Senang sikit matching with my clothes hehehehehehehe

So yeah, looks like a good time to buy the little VWs, if you are taking a car loan.

Have to be careful, some models, the 0.5% is only for a 3 year loan. Anymore than that the interest rate will change.

yes indeed the silver part is also painted/machined not so sure of the right word. this color is similar to 18" detroits mk6, while the mk5 on 18" detroits have dark gray on the inside

Was told by SA differently. He said only the ICE section will be void. But make sure the player does not compromise the CAN BUS.

Anyway if you want to change get plug and play. Just reinstall the original player when you go for servicing.

if upgrade to rcd310 or rcd510 or rns510 or anything from vw then will be fine. wont void warranty. better look for above players cos it will fit the panel perfectly!

not enough. better save the 2k for other purpose as i dont think 2k can buy u better sound than stock speakers. actually stock ice sounds okay imho. or u can consider upgrade cd player only so that your panel looks better with lcd cool2.gif

Quite simple really, just pull out the side cover remove the four screws and unplug the CAN connector. Plug the CAN connector back to the original HU. Should not take more than 10 min.

Anyway as I mentioned do this only IF you are afraid of voiding the ICE warranty. If you don't care then it doesn't matter.

Yeah original speakers is ok... Maybe just add an amp and a sub-woofer or an active sub.

RCD 310 sux though.

Just now saw a modded white Polo Golf on the road. Very nicely done. Brembo brakes, rims also changed, exhaust mods too. Thinking to get one myself.

Btw, can anyone share some nicely modded Golf in Malaysia? Can't seem to find nice pictures. With bodykit picture also can.

Razor bodykit ranges from RM16.8k to RM20k which should include installation and painting. These prices can be found on motor traders magazine. Give the shops a call and you can probably haggle. Of course the price mentioned is for the entire kit

RCD 310 in the GTI MK6 makes the dashboard looks really plain and cheap for a car that cost more than 200k. Not much difference from the audio head units on perodua cars. I'm definitely changing mine to RCD 510 or RNS 510 when my car arrives. RCD 310 doesnt do justice to the Mk6 dashboard. Singaporeans gets RNS, sunroof and 18" detroits though a Mk6 in Singapore cost almost SGD 180k

There are a few places that sells and installs the 510. I'm getting the candy white GTI. Most probably getting mine from FA Wagen 222 though I'm still scouting from different dealers for the best deal. I've not booked mine yet, planning to do so this weekend. If you've not booked yours, perhaps you can PM me, we could purchase together and see if we could get a better deal. If there's anyone else out there thinking of booking your VW soon, we could gang up and negotiate for a bulk purchase discount ;-)

I was initially tempted to buy the 2010 stock with all the discounts but decided to wait for the new batch instead. I was told from FA Wagen that I could get my car by mid May if i were to make my booking by this week.

Well, that decision is a personal choice. If you can afford it, go for the GTI. I've test driven both cars many times and the GTI is a whole different animal altogether.

Not sure man, gotta do some calculations.
I've driven both TSI and GTI too. GTI is not only powerful but it also looks cool in every angle.
On the other hand, TSI looks a bit too auntie-ish. TSI to GTI conversion in terms of outlook, it's still better to have the real thing. hmm.gif

There are a few places that sells and installs the 510. I'm getting the candy white GTI. Most probably getting mine from FA Wagen 222 though I'm still scouting from different dealers for the best deal. I've not booked mine yet, planning to do so this weekend. If you've not booked yours, perhaps you can PM me, we could purchase together and see if we could get a better deal. If there's anyone else out there thinking of booking your VW soon, we could gang up and negotiate for a bulk purchase discount ;-)





Added on March 18, 2011, 10:38 pm
I was initially tempted to buy the 2010 stock with all the discounts but decided to wait for the new batch instead. I was told from FA Wagen that I could get my car by mid May if i were to make my booking by this week.
*
Ya, that will be great if we can get a good deal for bulk purchase.

What kind of discounts u get for 2010 stock? What make u decided to wait for 2011 stock? (in fact, I did consider to wait for new batch too)
I was told that there is not much different for the 2011 stock except with DRL headlight. ( another SA told me is rear LED light instead hmm.gif )

Yeah the exterior factor too. The TSI is still an awesome car for that price level, it will easily blow away the 2.4 accords, camrys, 2.5 mazda6 making them look silly on the road. However, for the GTI, well you are in the league of the Audi A4 S line, Merc C300, and BMW 325, bearing in mind these cars costs so much more. If you remap the GTI to stage 1 260hp, we are talking about taking on entry level porsche boxsters, evos, BMW 335...

There are various packages for the 2010 stock from different dealers. Mostly in forms of low interest rates, free tint, rear LED or one time discounts. Check with a few dealers for the details. Maybe the thought of these old stocks sitting in the warehouse for so many months kind of make me want to wait for the "fresh new stock". It's just me and my weird thinking, no right or wrong i guess. The new stock confirmed will come with front DRL (as confirmed by various SAs) and these lights are worth about 5k. If there are additional new stuff in the new stocks, then its a bonus..

honestly speaking i got my car in feb 2011 and it is a 2011 model that came with drl until vgm stop the car from being released. they replaced it with the normal lights and allowed it out. at that time i already saw the drl on a gti it was parked beside my car in fa wagen glenmarie. so i think anyone buying a gti should wait if u want the lights included. im pissed i didnt get it. but anyhow i agreed to buy the car without the lights in the first place

It requires modifying the RCD mainboard. There is a guy in Singapore who does it. Not cheap though, let me find out the cost and the contact

A bit off the current topic but I hope you'll indulge me ...

Went to the showroom to pay my downpayment and had a look at my car, pretty sad that I can't drive it off yet cause I'm still waiting for my number to come up (still under tender) ... don't think I'll be able to sleep at night from now on until I get the car.

Anyways, decided that the first thing to do to the car is to get it tinted. I've had Ecotint on my wife's car for about a year now and can't complain. Was wondering if any of you have any other recommendations (or real life experiences) as to what tint is good for a Golf GTI?

Thanks

Oh ... and had a look at the 2011 Golf TSI parked next to my car and confirmed that it comes with the DRL but unfortunately normal rear lights. Initially thought that I wounldn't want the DRL but it's growing on me ... damn! mad.gif

Then I am curious why you said that it is unfortunate that the Golfs come with normal rear lights?

In regards to tinting, so far both good reviews for 3M and V-kool. I am currently using V-kool and the best compliment I got from my colleagues is that when they entered my car the first thing try complimented was how cool it was in the car even when parked under the sun.

I just meant that it's a bit of a downer that 2011 Golf cars come with DRL headlights but not LED taillights. Personally, I'd go with the taillight upgrade first on my car.

Thanks for your reply. Any SmartTag issues with your V-kool?

If you feel down, there are a lot more things that golfs are not installed with hehe tongue.gif sunroof, better players and the KESSY system hahaha. But that is the price we pay for these items. Note like you said the read LED lights are exclusive meant for Golf R which is meant to make the R stand out as well.

On the other note, no issues with smart tag at all. I am using the V-kool elite on the front and back with the highest IR rejection rate among the other V-kool models and never had any issues with smart tag.

neways bout tinting i rely dont recommend V-kool,no offence yaa..

coz my dads car is usin V-kool the highest range i tink elite or someting like that..

pay so expensive but when enter car during hot day can feel the heat..

compare to my mums car..using SolarSafe highest range wif 7mil security film..

WOW the comparison is wayyyyyy BETTERRRRR!!!

n this is wif security tint....the SolarSafe without security tint,the heat rejection is higher...

so jus imagine...n the price is rm2k below...for saloon....

so i RELY RECOMMEND this brand...

N not to worry they tint all sorts of cars frm Porsche to Kancil.

when i get my polo i wil b goin there...

anyways...any tyre shop wil do...but jus bring to VW SC n see wat they hav to say...

Installed it at their main branch in Section 19 near the Rothmans roundabout. The damage is private because I got a special price during the KLIMS auto show at their booth.

I sat in a car with 3M as well, feels the same as well personally. But my friend did have some problems with the smart tag. He is using crystalinne 70.

Personally I sat in the various cars (friends and colleagues) after their car is parked under the hot sun (when we go out for lunch), all of the tinting is very very much the same. I can't tell much difference.

The only reason why I chose V-kool because I got very good service from the staff there, the price was very good after I got the discount, less than 2k (Vkool elite) which also included security 7mil film on my side windows. Previously when I sold my car and after puspakom removed the tinting, v-kool re-tinted it back for me with no extra charges.

Yup, different dealers are giving different info. My SA confirmed I will get mine in mid May. Other dealers have no clue when it will arrive, some saying its already here but VGM will not release them until all 2010 stocks are sold. VGM better release the new cars by May if there are still leftover of old stocks as it's already mid of the year by then! What if the old stocks are still not sold by August? Get our 2011 cars only in November 2011? If VGM wants to get rid of the old stocks, they have to give better incentives than just giving low interest rates and 4k discount.

But yes, it is confirmed that the new batch does come with front DRL.

I'm not familiar with Ecotint but I believe it is the lower grade tint brand and is very affordable. How much did you paid for your ecotint and does it comes with security film? My understanding of the few established brands so far (please correct me if i'm wrong)
Vkool - most popular and feedback has been quite good when it comes to heat features but I was told smartag have issues, though some claim they had no problem.
3M - one of the best tint brands globally and excellent in heat features but is known to have smartag issues and no security film?
Llumar - seems to be getting very popular here now and works well in both heat and security features. Anyone used Crystal 6 before? I'm considering this for the GTI
Huper Optik - German brand and I'm using this brand in my current car which was packaged with the car i bought. So far so good with the heat features and comes with security film. However, it doesnt seem like a popular brand as I don't hear much of it

I am really planning to get a polo at about april. But Ford Fiesta is really attractive in terms of gadgetry in car. Sigh. I know asking you guys will give me a biased answer. But my heart is really on the polo. I need support to go ahead with the polo. Haha! The main reason why I am in doubts with the polo is that I just feel the interior is not special and the lack of usb input and the rcd210 really turns me off compared to the fiesta. What do you guys actually think between the two? If it is possible, try giving a neutral answer? smile.gif


Added on March 20, 2011, 9:02 pmAlso, I was thinking about the lifespan of the dsg of the polo since it is a dry clutch. Will it last long? The engine and everything as well. Do I need to like keep changing the parts after 7 years? Oh and do you guys think that Veemer Motors give good aftersales service? Sorry I keep asking so many questions. Too many questions, nowhere to ask.

I believe the problem for smart tag is the other model which is the V-Kool 40 (or S40).

Personally I sat in the various cars (friends and colleagues) after their car is parked under the hot sun (when we go out for lunch), all of the tinting is very very much the same. I can't tell much difference.

The only reason why I chose V-kool because I got very good service from the staff there, the price was very good after I got the discount, less than 2k (Vkool elite) which also included security 7mil film on my side windows. Previously when I sold my car and after puspakom removed the tinting, v-kool re-tinted it back for me with no extra charges.

I might be wrong but from what I heard, the Crystalinne flagship series will get discolored in 3-4 years due to it's huge amount of steel or mercury (I dont quite know what kind of specific material that they used in that)

Yup, different dealers are giving different info. My SA confirmed I will get mine in mid May. Other dealers have no clue when it will arrive, some saying its already here but VGM will not release them until all 2010 stocks are sold. VGM better release the new cars by May if there are still leftover of old stocks as it's already mid of the year by then! What if the old stocks are still not sold by August? Get our 2011 cars only in November 2011? If VGM wants to get rid of the old stocks, they have to give better incentives than just giving low interest rates and 4k discount.

But yes, it is confirmed that the new batch does come with front DRL.

I'm not familiar with Ecotint but I believe it is the lower grade tint brand and is very affordable. How much did you paid for your ecotint and does it comes with security film? My understanding of the few established brands so far (please correct me if i'm wrong)
Vkool - most popular and feedback has been quite good when it comes to heat features but I was told smartag have issues, though some claim they had no problem.
3M - one of the best tint brands globally and excellent in heat features but is known to have smartag issues and no security film?
Llumar - seems to be getting very popular here now and works well in both heat and security features. Anyone used Crystal 6 before? I'm considering this for the GTI
Huper Optik - German brand and I'm using this brand in my current car which was packaged with the car i bought. So far so good with the heat features and comes with security film. However, it doesnt seem like a popular brand as I don't hear much of it
*
I'm a V-Kool fan so been using V-Kool 40 for my current and previous car. But lately, my front windscreen got break and now am using Huper Optik (forget which model, but a friend of mine who's been using this film says that the heat rejection is the same as V-Kool 40). Reason I change to Huper (just for the front windscreen) is because it looks nicer than v-kool.

Cost isn't cheap at all. There are various options available. Starts from SGD$1050 and can reach up to SGD$2050

Haven't tried papago, but my goal was to have a clean dashboard, hence the RNS. I do have a spare of Garmin gps as well, just in case the RNS don't know the "location" where I'm going. blush.gif

If you want one with warranty, get it from your dealer where u bought the car, if not mistaken, comes with 6 months warranty.

The RNS has one more advantage, you can see the map in your MFD. The Garmin isn't able to show that yet tongue.gif

I am really planning to get a polo at about april. But Ford Fiesta is really attractive in terms of gadgetry in car. Sigh. I know asking you guys will give me a biased answer. But my heart is really on the polo. I need support to go ahead with the polo. Haha! The main reason why I am in doubts with the polo is that I just feel the interior is not special and the lack of usb input and the rcd210 really turns me off compared to the fiesta. What do you guys actually think between the two? If it is possible, try giving a neutral answer? smile.gif


Added on March 20, 2011, 9:02 pmAlso, I was thinking about the lifespan of the dsg of the polo since it is a dry clutch. Will it last long? The engine and everything as well. Do I need to like keep changing the parts after 7 years? Oh and do you guys think that Veemer Motors give good aftersales service? Sorry I keep asking so many questions. Too many questions, nowhere to ask.
*
In terms of gadget you definitely get a bit more stuff in the Fiesta compared to the Polo. Same as well if you compare the Forte 2.0 vs a Golf GTI. But the main differences and the ones that people choose a VW is the build quality and the ride. Cabin is quite, smooth gear changes with the DSG gearbox and long intervals between services (15,000km).

Have youtest driven both? I would sincerely recommend you test drive both cars smile.gif

Go check under the commercial classifieds section under other accessories smile.gif

I saw the front DRL seller there but the price difference isn't that much compared to here ($1,800 vs RM4300). At least over here you can go back and find the fella who installed it for you wink.gif

test driven both of them. Also, in theory, the performance difference between the two cars are really small.(The polo lost a lot in bhp) But when I tested the cars, the polo felt more powerful in terms of everything. I would like the golf more but I'm still a student so yea, dad says don't push my boundaries too far. Haha. Also, I feel as a new driver, the car feels expensive for me but it is too hard to resist so I need support to get it. Haha. No club for polo drivers?


Added on March 21, 2011, 7:31 pmI mean I feel it is a bit too much for me as a student to get it. But I never meant to show off to anybody, I just am super in love with the tech in the car. I still keep Fiesta in my mind at times to remind myself how much a b segment car actually should cost. == ...and I get discouraged to get the polo. sad.gif

Today is a sad day. I just scrapped my virgin GTi on a wall when I was squeezing through a tight angle. When I heard the sound of it hitting against the wall, my heart sank. Now my front left side of my bumper... got scar liao. Luckily my fog lamp was spared. Can't stop blaming myself for being so clumsy n for the poor judgement. How much is it to replace the front bumper ah?
