actually half inch difference, stock size is 23.3" and 15.5"

hmm, so only 0.7" difference, but then if choose 24" will hit the side wor.

so if buy 22" shorter by 1.3", ok lar, not much differ

edit: sorry it was the long one that hit the side, not the shorter one.

23" should be okay i think if you want to replace

i bought 24" and it hit the a pillar when you set the wiper at full speed

FC Update:
23 km home to office, 8.2 L/100km. Hmm that's surprisingly good.

Observations:
Too much turbo blow off sound. Even below 2000RPM, such as 60 - 70 kph. Every time the car infront slow and accelerate a bit, you have to release and press the accelerator quite often. Every time you release the accelerator you hear the blow off sound. That means there was boost, even at slow speeds.

yup same as mine after the ecu/tcu update

Regarding wiper blades, should we measure and make sure it wipe over the rain sensor?
If too short and it can't reach (wipe) the sensor, then the sensor keep reporting heavy rain...  laugh.gif

dont think need to wipe till sensor area, anyway the rain sensor kinda not sensitive, sometimes i have to manually override it.

even the light sensor, hardly use it, kinda wasted for the light sensor

if everyday travel on the road with jams, speed bumps, traffic lights, normally will get 13-15L/100KM

for me, roundtrip home - office - home, 30KM, end up getting 14L/100KM averagely.

best way to save on fuel, is wake up early and leave home at 7am, go home at 5pm. For sure will get good fc.

DRB-Hicom plans Asian Car, to be hub for Volkswagen
http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?f...02&sec=business

hmm, so maybe after 7-10years, we will have Proton-VW asian car, hmm, if their assembly line QC still as poor as before, that would be shameful.

Yess. after first time pump at petronas, driving through bangsar at 10am traffic, i see the FC go to 22l/100km.  shocking.gif
Hahah. maybe more difference for the Turbo users if they test ron97. im curious also what's the difference. anyone here willing to spare rm20 petrol to test on their car and review? tongue.gif
*
i pump shell ron97 and mobil 97 before, only diff is pickup slightly better.

i'm not an oil specialist, but to me 95 and 97 not much difference, only difference is the price tongue.gif
if u talking about 95 and 105 (perhaps, maybe, probably in the future), then maybe lot of difference. tongue.gif
