hey i am a bit confused lah .. which is the OEM VW springs manu ? some said Eibach does it for VW.... then suddenly i c ppl say H&R is the best for compatibility (for the 2.0 DCC function)..... and of coz VW will say use VWR sport springs for warranty to b intact ....



so many decisions to make.... today gotta decide to buy the 27" imac low end model or the 27" imac high end model (diff onli processor speed & graphic card memory ... ) still weighing which is value for money .... *sigh*... lolx

Had a mini freak out session this morning with my Golf TSI while driving to work.

Was stuck at a traffic light jam on a hill when I realized the car rolls back when you let go of the brakes - even when I was on 'D', and even when I was lightly tapping the accelerator.

Almost knocked into the car behind me.

Is this normal? I ended up having to balance out the handbrake and the accelerator as if I'm driving a manual (yes I know DSG is essentially a manual, but wasn't expect it to work like this.)

How do you guys deal with this "characteristic" of the car? I was thinking maybe if you don't play with the handbrake, it may be possible to just hold on to the foot brakes, and floor the accelerator a little harder instead.

if you depress fully your brake pedal, your hill control "should" engage. But i treat the DSG as a manual and always pull my handbrake on slopes..anyway..its good practice

if u pull your handbrake 100% of the time on slopes, then u dont have to worry whether u gonna roll back or not, it just becomes habit

hill hold assist only works for around 2-3 sec...
after that it will disengage and u gotta press the brakes again or start moving... if not ur car will roll backwards
and u gotta press the brake fully in if not it wont engage also..

Like jwrx said handbrake it and when you release, the hill assist would take hold immediately but only for 2-3 seconds, but lets say you forgot to hand brake it but foot brake and when you let go it starts rolling back...it would roll back for only a short distance before the hill assist takes hold UNLESS the idiot-to-be behind you is too freakin near your car then you will definitely kiss your paint job goodbye

Hey !

Yea ... Friends been saying the GTI is more than enough . Can save the extra money for mods .
Thinking of adding HKS Super SQV III Blow off valve and do a simple ECU upgrade to bypass the fuel cut .
Other than that , it's just rims and maybe suspension ?

But I'm happy for the way the car is , But of course the R rear lights and Xenon headlights ( optional for GTI in Aussie ) are a bonus =D

bro pelvin! how's your polo doing?

180k is waay over my budget la. too bad.

Guys, nice to meet u all, just got my ride this evening, carbon grey GTI SE, but I was being told to do the 1st service at 8,000km, not 15,000 km meh? Please correct me if I'm wrong tq
