My gf is driving the current facelift Polo..

Just wondering, need to for service at 1k? 5k? 10k? I don't have the car manual, so not sure...

Thanks all smile.gif

Official service is every 15k km.
However, many opt to pay and do own service at 7,500 km.

Thanks bro for the prompt reply.. So u mean there is no first service at 1k or 5k? First service is at 15k? smile.gif

i think this is more like "sports" version instead of facelift.

17" vs 15" : any drop in performance or ride comfort?

Earlier, the salesman let her use the 15" test-drive unit cause her car was delayed around 2 weeks..

I drove the 15" normal version... Trashed the car too, went Genting, tyre screeching everywhere... Hehe tongue.gif

The 17" sports version handling much much better.. Ride comfort of course drop a bit cause using low-profile 215/40/17 tyres.. Pick-up or top speed can't test yet because her car is still "virgin", less than 1k mileage..

Is it possible to install the front DRL on the lights like Polo GTI? Also, other than bodykit, what other mods are there for Polo? smile.gif

just updated the software for the transmission and turbo. I was told that there is a fault in the modulator (if i heard correctly) of the turbo system of the polo sport and a software update with an installation of spacer were required to prevent short circuit in long run.

Everything done in 3 hours with a test drive by the technicians to double check the settings for the transmission.

The transmission felt slightly smoother, less jerky at lower speed.

Wow, thanks bro for the detailed explanation.. My gf just got the letter for her Polo Sport and she is so worried of what update is needed for her car.. Now can explain to her and tell her not to worry so much smile.gif
