lol should be normal bro...
ur car 240 NM torque leh..

i drag race with my frens b16 civic EF i wheel spin for 1st 2nd and 3rd lol..
*
what's the outcome of the drag? 300m, 400m?

p/s: i thought wheel spin happened when ur car got high torque but less traction... does this mean that the TCS in our 1.4 is not doing his job? btw, i'm on Potenza RE050.

Hi all bro,
I would like to improve my Golf Tsi handling as i feel my ride is too soft especially taking corner.. Which shall i choose between lowered sport spring or anti roll bar replacement? And which brand is better? Thnks...
*
IMO, 1st u should get a good set of tyres + 17' or 18' inch (if u like to attack corners)

I thought its some auto handbrake thingy. tried it on the slope and it didnt appear
*
it indicate that u must depressed the gas pedal in order to change the gear from N to D,S,R,P

If stock should not be a problem.

should not be a problem for drag (0-100) or when doing top speed? even the torque/hp is about the same I always thought that a higher cc cars had more advantages when doing a long run/top speed.....

Guys,

Just send my Golf TSI for 45000KM service at VW Jalan Ipoh, KL. Apparently there was a software upgrade for both the engine and the gearbox. I sneaked into the service bay to see my car and had a chat with the service technician. Then he showed me one email from his supervisor about the upgrade and at that time, he was burning the file into a CD. Then he proceeded to upload the new files into my car via the diagnostic tool. Now, no more jerking in 2nd gear!!! Whatever it was, it's good to have the latest software, much like our "talipon pintar".
*
does the so called 'software upgrade' appear in your service receipt?
