QUOTE(theclickshop @ Oct 4 2011, 12:38 AM) Hey guys, I've been looking around for a new ride recently and have decided on getting a polo gti white. However apparently the car is so hot till have been told that only mar 2012 will b available  walauehhh, siennnnn. I'm the kinda guy that want to get it ASAP. So my question is, is there any VW dealer out there that I can get the ride faster? If not, any SA can provide good service or better price? Sorry bro, all bookings are off for the Polo GTI. The demand for this car is way too high! Unless you can really cari jalan with some of the people who booked it but so far only 5 was delivered last month.

Hi Guys,
Need some feedback here.
I am driving a 1.4 roc When I Switch off the engine, the radiator fan is still running for approx 30 seconds before shutting off by itself. ( after a normal drive , below 100km/h or a spirited drive , approx 120-150km/h)
For the MK6 2.0, the radiator fan shuts off immediately after the engine is off ( after normal driving ). The radiator fan continues running for approx 1 minute ONLY after a spirited drive.
Is this normal for 1.4 bcoz it is twin charged?
Thanks for your feedback ya.

Got a lil worried when my buddy's gti acted differently. the radiator fan sounded rather nice compared to the jap turbo cars when cooling down. Btw, what do you guys do with the 2 wires behind the accelerator? Got casing for it? This post has been edited by SeraphimGecko: Oct 4 2011, 01:47 PM

Thinking of doing it as well To be frank, there is a setting you can do on your car but whenever your car's tyre pressure goes down, a check engine light similar thingy would appear on the dashboard. Otherwise you might need to look for 3rd party ones. Sierra Glow is holding up not too bad after a year. Might want to go back there to see if I can do a maintenance version of it
