Yes I know every car/brand also got their own issues and not perfect... but looking at close friends and relatives getting all excited when buying and now cursing kaw kaw every day...
The nos of piston failure/crack due to misfiring vs the nos of car sold in MY, is dangerously high. A friend of mine had his golf tsi engine replacement that took more than 4 months. No courtesy car by the way...SC said misfiring melted 2 piston and scarred the engine block so must replaced whole engine...
If VW sold a lot like P2 or Proton and having some cases, I can understand la.... but VW is not even a volume brand... yet the nos of misfiring problems and DSG7 failure that need mechatronics or Clutch Pack replacement among Passat, Jetta, Golf, Polo, and Roc is way too high of % and unacceptable. Infact almost every VW driver that I know that using DSG7 dry version have either mechatronics or clutch pack replaced.
And please no stupid fan boy comment defending saying its one cant afford hence cant comment. I just wanted to see just how long can VGM playing this selling game with poor after sales as well.
Service appt now minimum 3 weeks booking. My cousin is not too excited that he have to wait that long just to book the first service at 15k...either. Touch wood, he have no DSG7 problem ... yet.
Are you stupid? VW Golf is world car sold world wide. Proton is not even a fraction of it.The nos of piston failure/crack due to misfiring vs the nos of car sold in MY, is dangerously high.
