Depends what tint you want, if LLumar or 3M you can check out LLunar at Glenmarie.

Paint protection I just found out the basement car wash at Citta Mall offering PPS so far cheapest I've heard. You can also check out Sierra Glow.

Golf can mod 101 things go join vwclubmalaysia.net , the first thing you should mod bro is the tail lights. haha
*
I was quoted RM 1500++ for llumar ..not sure what spec is the tint..is it ok?

What is PPS? how much is it? once do it then no need wax the car anymore? sorry noob in this kind of things

how much is the tail lights? will void warranty??

I went for PPS at Shine N Shield. I believe one of our brothers here can offer you a good deal there. Not the cheapest, but  I am totally satisfied in relation to their product and workmanship is tip-top.

On an unrelated note, went to FA Wagen Glenmarie to service my car so kepoh-kepoh sikit over there. Seems that now Polo GTI is back-up for delivery up to early 2013, hence why they're not taking any more bookings.

Also, there were so so many people there during lunch time you will not believe it. Good to see that the VW brand is picking up and that people are looking to VW as a viable alternative to the other more established car brands. Good lor, will make it easier for me to sell off my car later when I want to upgrade.

You can get it for RM2,200 installed which I think is the cheapest around. However, since you're not doing it with VW, you may run into warranty issues.
*
yup..worried about warranty issues ;(

QUOTE(grifterfmj @ Nov 21 2011, 12:56 PM)
My LLumar was 4mil so far so good. 1500 seems ok price.

Ya PPS is the coating for your paint so you no need to polish / wax. Of course if you are an enthusiast and insist on polishing every 1-2 months wax every 6 months then its not for u lo.

Try to buddy buddy the SA la, everything also void then won't see so many VW on the road with all the mods right? They can close one eye one. Beside's the light is just plug and play no cable cutting at all, just need to code for like 2mins after install. RM 2200 is a fair price
*
How much is your tinting? Is it LL T4-50?
PPS stands for what by the way? how much it cost??

Thanks bro wink.gif

As long as your desire model is ready stock and all sort of documents are done within one or two week, delivery date could be the day after or later, which mean in two week time. 3 weeks is okay, be patience.  tongue.gif

thanks bro..just hope to settle in 2 weeks wink.gif

push the lever front is for the wiper at behind.
middle will be nothing
pulling back is spray water and front wiper. Correct?

Since there are 4 logos, i expect 4 actions. But actually only the above actions right? or i miss out anything? thanks!

golf tsi bro wink.gif


QUOTE(grifterfmj @ Dec 17 2011, 09:12 AM)
I think golf TSI.

Up once is auto wiper, up 2 times is fast speed, up 3 times is fastest speed.

In auto mode you can also adjust the sensitivity of the sensor with the button located on top it has 4 settings from 1-4.

flick down = wipe once. pulling the stalk back is for the spray, every 3rd spray you will activate the headlight washer also or if you hold it back long enough the headlight washer will pop up also. (assuming you took 156k lights & sound package)
*
thanks bro. how about the rear wiper? i read the manual and notice that there is washing mechanism for rear window as well. pushing the stalk to the front and hold. but i only notice the wiper motion only. no spraying of water though.

anyone know how to set the mirror for better kerb view when reversing?

and change the mph to kmh??

thanks!

Mph to kmh is set at mfd. Its called alternate speed untick/tick the box

The kerb view side mirror is only for the passenger side. I forgot the steps, if im not mistaken its

1. Turn the knob to L
2. Set gear to N
3. Set gear to R
4. Adjust mirror then push back gear to N

You can check the manual, its there

Btw come join vw club TT!

hi, just wanna ask, for the reverse kerb view, is it only can set for the left hand side mirror only?

and by the way, which is the side light for golf tsi? there are 4 options. off, auto, side lights and dipped beam headlights.

i notice that in off possition, the lights arrangement are the same as the side light option except that the odometer lite up for side light option. what is the side light actually??

btw, how come my RCD 310 backlight is black/deep blue in color , wording in white..instead of blue back light?

Thats what me and my home minister thought. We love this car  rclxms.gif

  Although its for whiplash, should make it softer. Plus, for smaller asian folks, the head rest is just pushing the top of the head and becomes so uncomfortable.

i can say, no car in this price range can compete with golf whether it is performance, safety, reliability and status (continental car). XD if yes, maybe i am being poison too much by forumer. XD

head rest works fine to me wink.gif It actually serve a purpose..to support your neck.. read it from the manual..correct me if i m wrong..

what offer you get by now? 2011 car or 2012?

For us its ok because we are tall and also we sit in front. For some asian folks which are small and cute, the headrest in the back seat would just push top of the head  sad.gif

The SA offered me the 2011 car. Now feel like I need to wait for the Hi-line Golf TSI 2012. Really love the Dynaaudio sound system and reverse camera for the hi-line saw on youtube thumbup.gif

sorry bro. i never sit behind.. so i am not sure about it..hehe..
