Something like this:



About the LED backlight, may i know how much is it ? The vw dealer quoted me rm3400. I think it is quite expensive cause i can get rm2400 shipped form vw germany.

I think you just have to "unchecked" the Daytime Running Light box from your MFD, It should be in the Lights&Vision menu. I'm not too sure though but you can try smile.gif

Haha, so fast already thinking of upgrading your Polo?

Thanks! Will try it on later whether it works or not.

About the connection to iphone, i do saw a cable in my glovebox like a usb adapter, when i connect it with my iphone using iphone cable, the screen shows it is unsupported. Does it works only for ipod and usb sticks? Thanks

I tried, it just charges the iPhone. I think you need a special cable with the iPod/iPhone connector. Yes it works perfectly with the USB sticks. smile.gif

Thanks mate! I think i will get a 3.5mm m to m cable to connect to my iphone to the aux port.

seriously there is too much button in the gti, its even more if i compare it with my dad 530i lol... Maybe im just new with it, have to look through the manual book. Is there any quick tips on what i should know? like those important buttons and stuff (especially those button at the right side of the steering wheel, how to connect phone with the car). Sorry if i sound like i need a spoon feeding or such...Hopefully someone will help me out instead of looking through the manual book! Cheers!

GTI doesnt have Bluetooth, the phone button is just to mute your radio

some tips
- u can fold your mirrors in for parking with the mirror adjustment knob
- u can set your welcome home lights to on/off
- No your reverse light is not broken..theres only 1
- yes, u have to press recirculate cabin air everytime u start car, its default off
- you can get R LED from me for 2280
*
Thanks for the quick tips jwrx!! Appreciate it a lot! Im not sure how to set the welcome home light and what do you mean bout the air circulate mode thanks!

Pm me best price, my location is penang how bout u? Can u help me to install it? Thanks

Bro its the launch control..not traction control.

Its been discussed a few pages back..essentially its for drag race. The car will rev to 3k at standstill in D..before engage the gear....so you can chop chop your rival car..ahahaha..

But beware..DSG later kantoi...

Thanks for the clarification mate. Will try to search for the page later. Just reach 500km mark. Damn recently addicted on paddle shift. I used almost half tank for around 80km lol... If dsg gearbox got problem I guess it's covered by the 5 years warranty?

Wanna ask some bro who drive GTI, whenever your turbo kick in do you heard any gas leaking noise from driver side ? I mean stock car not those with 3rd party Intake. Thanks

Cold air intake will make the sound even powderful!!! brows.gif

Hey guys any comments on APR Carbonio or Forge Twintake? Which one is more recommended? In terms of performance and sound. Cheers smile.gif

Hi Guys,

I know colour is a very personal choice, but still gonna ask your opinions.

How many of you guys feel that a red VW looks nice?

Some people have said that red coloured cars normally, abit hard to find buyers when I want to sell it off later.

What do you think?  I had not owned a red car before.
But I see many red cars with badly maintained paint that turns me off. This definitely affects the saleability of the car itself.

Red colours fades easily?

My white car, badly faded. back then I dun bother to maintain.
My black car, painstakingly maintained with regular wash and waxing etc....it is hard work but well worth it.
Red easy to maintain?

Did anyone had such experience with car dealers/direct buyers when you trade in your red coloured car?
I mean hard to find buyers etc.

I dun see a lot of buyers going for red.

Thanks for your inputs!!
*
The reason i choose red over black and white is that red is more pop out on the road. This is my first red vw car. The nickname of Golf GTI is Small Red Chili so yea you do the math tongue.gif . A carbon fibre hood will change the look. Im still searching for a suitable hood to change.

My plan is to change the back light to R LED, cold air intake, cf hood and such. Gonna spend around 10k for it cry.gif cry.gif

Gonna meet up excite12 from vw.net so that he could bring me to the poison land around northern region laugh.gif

Cheers!
