i think the OEM tires for Roc 1.4 is michelin primacy hp

kinda comfort orientated

Does any tsi owners here feels that golf tsi road noise is quite loud frm inside? My passenger said its even louder than his nissan latio with 17 inch tyres. Mine is ori rims.

Comments?

yup..michelin premacy hp 225/45..me n potholes dun go so well..my mini runflat always kena pothole n go flat..changed about 5 times edi ..today bring my sisters car out n kena wit her car ..

I'm feeling the same as well... What tires are yours? Using the original tires which is the continental. Funnily, its only the road noise, other traffic noise is definitely almost silent.

Any recommendation - will probably change to it after the ori wears out!

just to warm up this thread

Mine originally comes with continental too. At first i thought the tyre may be the cause. But how come it's still louder comparing with a nissan latio with 17 inch and hankook tyres...sad..sad..

Actually I not really like the exterior for both golf gti & polo gti, but if you blind my eyes without looking at the exterior and went into the interior, looking at the interior I feel like driving a super sport car.

The sound I also not sure either turbo or dsg, lol.. I think should be the dsg gear changing + pick up power by twin turbo changer.

Did you test polo gti before? I want to know more about it compare to golf gti, it seems an affordable powerful car.

Tonight going to test my friend newly bought scirocco 1.4, the car is nice but i think not as powerful as polo gti right?

If I order polo gti today, what date you expect I can get it?

Whats your tyre pressure?

Different road surface ?

This is a known issue as well guys, bring it to your service centers and complain about it. They have a few fixes for this whether it is to adjust the rubber lining on the doors or adjust the doors themselves. Tell them in particular where you hear the sound the most.

Awesome, thanks for sharing. The Golf on the right, using the Kerscher kit. Not many people opt to get that kit!

If you order today, not too sure if you can even get it at March 2012 as they have so many bookings already. If you want I can pass you to me sales agent and she can help you with the car. Also yeah the Polo GTI will be faster mainly because it is tuned to a higher power and its a lighter car.

The Polo GTI interior is different compared to the Golf GTI purely by the difference of leather seats and the fabric tartan seats which follows the original design of the Golf GTI MK1. In terms of power, the Golf GTI's pull and burst of speed at the higher ranges will be felt a lot more due to the 2.0 engine. At 0-100 the Polo will give the Golf a good run but once at higher speeds, will tend to lose out already.

I read from review Mk5 have lot of minor issue which is solved in mk6. I'm looking forward at normal Golf, i was wondering golf interior quality similar with gti mk6?

Golf GTI Vs Polo GTI
been posted b4 but just for rstusa info

Nice

Interior quality of all Golfs are exactly the same. Doesn't matter if it's TSI, GTI or R.

The only difference is some of the accessories. For example GTI has steel pedals, tartan fabric and a flat bottom steering wheel. Normal Golf doesn't, but even its regular accessories are of equally good quality.

Mine seems alright, wife and parents-in-law are quite impressed... hehe

mind sharing , how to differentiate btwn those 2 ?

Its almost the same interior between the Golf GTI and TSI. Like mentioned above, steering is different, leather seats and SS footrest and pedals that are noticeable. But GTI SE get a lot of extras, sun roof and RNS510.

any recommended SA @ Jln Ipoh VW ?

I hate sunroof, kind of useless for me. How about build quality of tsi and gti? My main concern is quality.

Overall car looking not an important issue for me, performance is the most concern.
