Hi guys,


Wearnes vs Veemer. Any difference between the two? Especially on the after sale service and maintenance?

Yeah read that. But that was more for Veemer Service Centre rather than its Sales. But if I buy from Veemer, can I send to Wearnes for servicing?

Man... went through the VW fb site. So many complaints. Now I'm really scared of getting a VW.

which car/model got no complaint at all?  blink.gif

but from the number of complaints there, it's quite alarming as VW is not a locally made car but CBU.

yea wad kind of complains...?

just go to FB and search for Volkswagen Malaysia. Then on the page, right hand side, are all the comments by those ppl. Let's hope that they are not trolls trying to jeopardise VW's image.

Today news paper I saw that all VW cars model got discount 30k? Is that real?
*
Not all. 30k for top of the line models and the discount decreases gradually for cheaper models.

I think it's Night Blue. Shadow Blue is on Polo and Polo Sedan while Jetta one is Tempest Blue. But they all look the same to me. Hopefully I am not colour blind tongue.gif

oh ya, ask SA about kerb/curb view function of the side mirrors
engine oil levels, water levels, mileage etc
*
the kerb view function of side mirror, where it auto tilts downwards while on reverse gear, does it apply to Polo Sedan or only available on higher end models?

That is a load of bullshit from your SA.

Golf GTI Mk7 will be around 10-20bhp more powerful and it will be 100kg lighter thanks to it's MBQ platform.
http://www.carbuzz.co.uk/blog/VW-Golf-Mk7-GTI-GTD-323

http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2012/09...gn-concept.html

I bet the SA is confused because the Golf TSI 1.4 Mk7 will have LESS power compared to the Golf TSI 1.4 Mk6 due to VW discontinuing the 1.4 TwinCharge engine and replacing it with the single 1.4 Turbo engine. But the Mk7 again, will be lighter compared to the Mk6.
*
Let's face the truth. Sometimes all they care about is hitting the sales target. But having said that, there are some really nice and honest SA's around.

What car you wanted to test drive? I bought my car there. I actually found it to be better than Wearnes.

Bro, I think he was talking about the TSI which is actually -20PS but +10nm

Mk7 GTI def more powerful.

On another note, hows BMW's service compared to VW? Head and shoulders above?
*
From my experience with cars, never rely entirely on the numbers.

There are other factors that play very important roles as well i.e. transmission gearbox, weight of the car, weight distribution, tyres, suspension, aerodynamics and friction from the design etc. etc.

SA's can only tell us so much. But in the end, we have to test drive the car ourselves to really feel its power and agility. After all, we are the ones who will spend real quality and quantity time with the car after we purchased it smile.gif

Cheers and Happy New Year!!! biggrin.gif

so sad no one wanted to answer my question sad.gif

I asked the SA before. He mentioned that the new software update can solve most of the existing problems. But the main thing is that the technician at the service centre ensures that the software update is complete 100% and not stopping at anything below that. Just like completely downloading a video off the internet.

You can try sitting inside your car. Lock your car via the remote. Wait for 30secs. Then try moving and see if the alarm will sound smile.gif

i serviced my polo sport for rm422.70 for the 1st 15k km. The bulk of the cost is of course the M-oil.

Service is good, i was provided with a courtesy car to use for about half a day.

Which service centre bro?

Congrats man! What I've noticed for quite a long time now is that the number plate from Wearnes is better looking than say CNB (previously Veemer)
