doesnt fit into polo sport stock rims..
alternatively, change the whole set, trade in the stock one and buy a new set..
*
if you're on stock boavista 17x7J, then it'll fit 205/45/r17
my polo on enkei sc22 17x7J also on nexen n8000, however i use thinner tires though 205/40/r17

We are not talking about peugeot alone,

Anyone else have any other comments? can every one agree that place 23rd out of 38 below Chevrolet , Hyundai, Lexus, Mazda, Ford , SKODA ,Citroen , Kia, Peugeot, Fiat, Daewoo, Smart, Seat, Vauxhall and SsangYong is a good place to be for VW, i mean the VW 
???

first off the site u got the data from is not conclusive
it doesn't mention the period of time the data was pull from,
which means it could've been from early 90s till today

second, daihatsu has already stop selling cars in UK since 2011
i don't think fiat & skoda are being popular here

well some folks are having issues with their VW
best to avoid 7spd dry dsg DQ200 due to the number of claims

too bad we no have manual offerings

well both focus mk3 & golf mk7 are on dual clutch gearbox

not sure about ford's PowerShift dual clutch transmission (DCT) durability
it's built by Getrag for Ford, and it uses wet dual clutch plates

compare to VW's problematic 7spd dry dsg (DQ200)

if not wrong anything below 2.0 cc will be going with DQ200
so far only the 2.0 TDI is paired with DQ250

there was no official announcement made by Volkswagen Auto Group on any new DSG...
the last announcement was in 2010 for DQ500

so in conclusion, mk7 golf tsi is still on DQ200

Guys, just have a quick question as I am quite a newbie when it comes to VW cars. The Tiguan which I happen to own... does it uses a problem-prone DSG gearbox? Wet or dry clutch eh? TQ...

hmmm if not wrong tiguan likely on DQ500, wet 7spd dsg

i just got an offer for a 6 months old Polo GTI going for RM136K

what do you guys think about this?

better than a 1.5 year old normal 1.4tsi golf?
*
if you don't need the space then go grab to polo gti,
else golf would be a better choice

do pay attention, polo rims are 5x100 golfs are 5x112

my 1.4 TSI got engine misfiring 3 weeks ago while on the highway...luckily can drive to SC with ~40-50km/h. SC confirm issue with engine..thus replacing the whole engine and 1 shot changing clutch pad and ignition coil...luckily they provide me a courtesy car while my car doing surgery...this week gonna get back my car...imagine when my car out of warranty...changing the whole engine....$$$$$$$
*
please tell which SC, what courtesy car?
and are you sure they're replacing whole engine?

normally misfiring they only replace spark plugs & ignition coil packs
