Fuel consumption didn't go up. Actually went down instead, used to average around 10.5km/L now the average has dropped to around 9.7km/L.

Yeah especially now, a lot of roadblocks and speed traps but since I am on the LDP most of the time, its always jammed up so no need to worry about speed trap. Its when I drive on the MEX thats when I need to brows.gif brows.gif brows.gif

LOL! The max I did on my stock GTI was 520KM around 49L (RON95).
I think that was quite awhile ago, nowadays I get 450-480KM.
Daily drive to work using MEX. Guess my fc is kinda bad.

Am a 1.4 owner and used to own a FD1, personally the FD1 handling around the corners are slightly better.

Kinda agree. I dont have the FD2, but I have Mazda 3. To me the Mazda handles corners better compared with TSI as the TSI steering feels vague...and there is a slight understeer most ofthe time when you attack corners. But the torque....yum yum sweet...veli nice!!

The suspension is also quite soft as well hence after a hard corner the car takes a while to stabilizes itself.

After reading the thread for a while, i've decided to get a tsi. Now my next concern will be window tinting, hope u guys can share some experience.

I understand some said its hard to find an experience shop to tint a golf (for not breaking the door clip) n some said 3M tinting does not require to take off door panels? Can more 3M supporter confirm? Appreciate ur comments.. Thx smile.gif

Plenty of Golfs have gone for 3M, V-Kool and Huper Optik and Lumar. Most of the authorized dealers have the experience. Don't worry too much about it.

Really? I am on V-kool's Elite and I always compare with my colleague's 3M. Everytime during lunch time we go into each other's car (we both park outside in the open) to see which car is hotter and most of the feedback I got from other colleagues that mine was slightly cooler. But I did my tint at V-kool's main HQ (near the old Rothman roundabout) which they did a fantastic job on it. No scratches and bubbles at all.
