You mean the silver lining on the rims? that's a BBS CH special edition.... but I heard Hup Soon sells the replacement which theoretically can stick on the a painted BBS CH.

Don't know.. But I already told 1 of their member.. He said no problem laa.. Just join and say hi.. In order for u to be approved u need to come to TT 1st.. That's what I've been told.. Wanna go tonite? Let's go la bro..
*
Never say that for you to be approved le... bro... VGCM has been the victim of spam and recently has limited their registration via manual approval. The moderators are not like those of big forums... in fact, if I had to rank them, they are the worse....

Having said that, the club is not about moderators hor.... its about members... as a member I find it frustrating that it is always down but as you already know we are all on BBM... and we talk a lot crap because we have been "golf" friends since we own the car....

So nvm the bullocks... TT is every Wednesday, you are welcome to come and give the moderator crap for sleeping at his job, if you don't .... I WILL!! hahahahha

Hey where can I buy Castro edge 5w-30? Seems most dealers has the edge 5w40 and magnatec5w30 but dun hav edge 5w30
*
Recommended 5w-40.

why 30? Using Castrol 40, you may have to top up your engine oil already at 5000km. Check your oils every 5000 km if you drive it hard.

Keep 1 litre spare in the trunk.

And in case you are wondering.... W is not weight. W is weather. .. 30,40,50 is viscosity... I got hook-winked in buying 0w-40 sports edge once because someone told me its W is weight and the lighter engine oil gives you better power.... blah blah blah... felt stupid when I got home and my little engineer bro laugh kok at me.

stress ... out of town so can't join you fellas sad.gif

anyways ... please welcome me to the "i have a problem with my golf" club. my suspension makes this annoying squeeking sound when i go over bumps or rough road ... the same sort of sound a rally car makes when they go over bumps. now that would be cool if i was colin mcrae but since i am clearly not, it sucks big time.

anyone else encounter this problem on their golf and more importantly, any fix available?
*
Are you sure its the suspension or your rubber lining at the door when you cross the bump and your car flex (natural)....

If it is what I think it is.....this is already a highlighted problem in VGCM forum... where the flexing of the car creates a rubber movement sound which is inside the car....

Here's the thread in VGCM:

yes its a newr engine, but there are only minor diffrences, the important bits like the K03 turbo, IC etc are the same

main diff between the EA888 and EA113 off the top of my head is its Chain driven instead of belts, new pistons/rings and has abit of valve timing

interestingly the mk6 Golf R and Scirocco R  actually uses the older EA113
*
Different Turbo... MK5 Borg Warner , MK6 IHI turbo.

MK5 TFSI churns 200bhp stock taking into account 15% powertrain loss, that's 175 on wheel which a mapped stage 1 mk6 1.4 TSI can eat them for breakfast.

MK6 2.0 TSI churns 210ps and that's on wheel. If you put same equation back on... that's around 250bhp.

Learned a lot from them, from driving, modding, and taking care of your ride  thumbup.gif ...and all is a bunch of nice + funny ppl. I invited some from here but too bad none of them can make it to join the run  sad.gif

I was there with him when we dyno his car.

This another MK6 stock car with neuspeed CAI

This one is mk6 Revo Stage 2 with modification to TBE only. No CAI

This one is mua's MK5 REVO stage 2 with sh|t load of mods and not even near his power.

MK6 TSI rocks... but not stable and hence the Golf and Rocco Rs are using the TFSI engine - also because they can use the engine and plug in the KO4 turbos which works like a charm. Even without a map, the KO4s already deliver 250bhp.... one map and 350bhp, not impossible......

Which reminds.... Owen Turbo or KO4 turbo? haha.... I am short of one HPFP and I can belanja the car behind eat stone chips.... hahaa.....

FARK! thats damn amazing...210 on wheel for stock mk6....then its worth the money over a used Mk5

Found out the hard way...

Went to track and was expecting to pull away from them but find it a bit hard to do it.... so we organise the dyno for the club and 2 of the MK6 turns out with this result.

One map... 250 on wheel.... at 15% power train lost, that's close to 300 bhp on engine.

15% for manual FF is decent but DSG is after all, auto.... so it should be more than 15% ya'll.

No fuel pump issue... no cam follower bollocks, no timing belt bollocks.... I would say the MK6 is a good daily drive car with reasonable priced maintenance...

abs activated but car didn't manage to stop in time....

Try Hawk Pads... I think JWRX used to bring them in... ask him.

HP plus not bad... but noisy.... I prefer the ceramic ones but those also noisy when warm. Ceramics you gotta becareful, cause the bite wouldn't come in until its warmed up.....

I tracked twice with the ceramic pads... OK la...

Else, go for the Golf R BBK..... or porsches like mine! LOL

just checked my engine oil...alright for now..3k mileage...which shop sells castrol 5w-40 at a very reasonable price? gotta get one for top ups just in case
No need la bro.... Read the VGCM threads, members there tried using tape la and some rubber softening solution.... its called the Gummi Pflege Stift - I know cause I bought two for my own use! haha.

Next TT, i let you tumpang a bit la... members say it works...???! I never try set... always say wanna put it on but end up going sunway install this and that... come home sleep! LOL

If you don't drive hard, you will be fine.... if you drive hard i.e. all the way to 7k rpm.... not doing high way runs at 200km/h.... you should be able to last 15k but still i thik should change every 7.5k..... if you anal like me... every 5k.

I think i bought castrol edge 1 ltr for RM 50.... try those spare part supplier shop.... or you can buy the 4 litre, pour into a 1 litre bottle.... if you need one empty 1 litre bottle, let me know cause i have some torco oil bottle somewhere... tongue.gif

Also the link you gave earlier was really handy! According to the TSB, there are actually pads that VW need to also put into the pillars to prevent the wind noise. Anyone you know actually manage to get VW to add in those additional pads to reduce the wind noise?

I bought mine here -> http://shop.autobritedirect.co.uk/einszett...100ml-760-p.asp

Comes up to about 90RM delivered to my door-step

Can la.... I asked them to do it before that was when it was still VW cars.

The guy who did it for me is now in jln 222 FA Wagen. His name is Vicky. During your first service, tell them that you have wind noise. They will adjust the doors again.... or so he says he adjusted la...

Alternatively, go modify your exhaust.... remove resonator.... you will never notice the wind noise again! hahahahhaha

bro removing muffler means remove my whole back muffler?

Depends what you want....

Power

Change the whole Turbo Back Ext (TBE). Bigger pipe size, more power but less torque and vice versa. If you are going for stage 2 map, you need to change TBE to 3" to maximize your output. If you keep it at 2.5", you get enormous torque and problem lower HP

In general, the less restriction the best for Turbo cars cause you don't need back pressure like the NA cars and some goes to the extend of de-cat.


Some grunt and looks

Change the Cat Back Ext (CBE).... didn't really measure the performance gain but heard someone saying change CBE can get better power.... maybe stock flow is not good? Don't know... havent seen any data that backs it other than butt-dyno.

This is long story cut short la....but always decide what you want before you do this.... ext mod can be very cumbersome, today you may like a bit more sound, tomorrow you may find travelling at 160km/h with droning cabin driving you nuts - mine went from loud, to soft and loud again and back to soft! LOL and its not something you can put it into a forum thread because its really very subjective.
