I just installed the RNS510 and Unibrace UB at exquisite marques for my Roc. Labor cost only RM127.
Got the RNS510 used for RM2200 through ebay, shipped from Lithuania. Delivery only took 3 days. The UB I ordered online while I was in the US for around RM1000. Both items manage to avoid tax so quite lucky la. Now trying to find a place to install a Malaysian map for my RNS. |

QUOTE(Yan @ Sep 13 2011, 08:23 PM) it's a known fact the speedometer in most cars is not accurate... over-reads by a few %.. Do you think if we upgrade to larger rims would cause the speedometer to be a bit heavier giving a more "accurate" reading? some say GPS reading are the closest... i can't b sure on that |

I know VW Malaysia uses Castrol Edge 5W-40 as their official engine oil. However I read the recommended viscosity is 5W-30 which is the Castrol Magnatec 5W-30 A5. But how come I don't see anyone recommending the Castrol Magnatec? Any problems using fully synthetic oil?

QUOTE(Yan @ Sep 16 2011, 03:46 PM) I think u got it terbalik. Vw malaysia is using magnatec 5w-40. The recommended worldwide iw 5w-30 edge. Oh ya ka.. Hehe.. Thanks for the clarification. Btw still wondering if you have time to do the coding. However some say 5w40 is due to our hot weather. I beh hiaw. But bought 2 tongs of 5w30 liqui moly fr singapore for my car QUOTE(torreto @ Sep 18 2011, 01:45 AM) I'm very keen of upgrading to Golf 1.4 TSi, thing is i'm from Kelantan and i have to drive down to Penang everytime for servicing Well servicing is only per 15,000km. The real problem would be to get your car fixed (to claim warranty and such) in an event that there's a problem with the car. . Do you guys think i should go for it ? |

QUOTE(Kerry1136 @ Oct 20 2011, 08:26 PM) 1.4 rocs are common on the road? So far I've only see 2.0's thought. Sighh with my limited budget I'm only able to afford a 1.4 roc though. But I don't want to see like a push-over on the road when people see a 1.4 roc since many rocs are 2.0 on the road. why bother other people? just enjoy your ride regardless what car.. |
