Topped up 1L engine oil at 14k KM at Hicom Auto cheras SC, already booked service at MHV Autohaus Gombak. Really have no free time to send to SC before Raya, just hoping that the car wont give trouble during Raya journeys..

Costs around RM400+ for 5L of engine oil, oil filter, nut, washer, labor, tax etc. Can request car wash, but tambah $$$ lor. Had my first service at 6000 km at Wing Hin Balakong. Bought the Tiguan from Wearnes Sungai Besi actually, but their service appointment is packed...

If you plan to service after raya, make sure do not exceed 15KM (or exceed 1 year for those always on out-station). Otherwise it will void warranty. There are many cases from vwclubmalaysia forumer falls into this trap. Some have to fork out RM35K to replace the engine because the warranty void due to the owner failed to service within the period (15KM).

Anyway, at Wing Hin Balakong you can get free alignment and balancing if you cars is below 10KM (1 time only) . Not sure about other SC, but I asked sungai besi SC, they only give you free alignment for the first 1KM only.

Since the hybrid vehicle trends started and getting popular in Malaysia, anyone got a clue will VWM consider bring in Jetta Hybrid?

U can get a free car wash & engine vacuum for every service done at Cergaz TTDI, gotta request for it though, or else they won't be bothered to ask u

I thought for 15k KM service cannot exceed more than 1500km? Which is 16.5k KM

VWM have no plan at now to bring in the Jetta Hybrid..hopefully they will bring in in the future

Hi, I'm an owner of a vw polo. My car is going to due for service soon approx around 1.2km was wondering whether I can chg my service centre to the nearest vw centre from my house, since my parents purchase this car at another vw centre which is fairly far from my house??.

Shouldn't be any problem. Remember to bring your service booklet as well.

Yes, you can service your car at any (authorized VW) SC.

Went Volkswagen today and asked about the MK6, planning to buy one but then the sales rep says all sold out.

He says 2-3 more weeks till the MK7 arrives on our shore! Not sure to yay or nay cus I have to add few more "k's" to get that car. Sakit wallet.

Anyways. I'm from Penang so I asked VW Penang...

Mk7 GTI? Yes, will launch 3rd quarter of this month I think some VW dealerships in Klang Valley might still have the Mk6. The (non-PP) Mk7 is better, but will be priced slightly higher.

Hi all,

Could you guys enlighten me about the 5 years unlimited mileage warranty?

As far as I understand, there's only 2 years manufacturer's warranty and 3 years warranty by Allianz.

Would that extended warranty be similar to the initial 2 years?
Is there anything in which I need to do after the initial 2 years to get the warranty extended?

In the dilemma to pick between MK6 and MK7, went to VW again today, asked lotsa question because the other day my parents went.

I asked about the common problem DSG, apparently the sales person denies, and every sentence she said touch wood. LOL chinese much.

Want a GTI but MK6 I see lotsa DSG problem and now with the new launch of MK7 the MK6 is certainly limited already, if MK7 were to price high and I cannot afford very hard to look for new MK6. Sigh ..

Showroom has TSI MK7 , fuking nice, unlimited jizzing.

GTI 6 speed wet clutch DSG has less issue compared to the Tsi 7 speed dry clutch. That one really full of problem. Even my dad's Passat start to have some juddering issues already .

A few episodes back, the guys at Top Gear rant about sport suspensions. They got a chance to test drive the MK7 GTI. So they put the suspension settings into Normal, Sport and Comfort and for each mode, they sent the Stig to do a lap and found out that the lap time for both Normal and Sport mode is the same! The comfort mode is .2 of a second faster! That's why they rant about it.

P/S: In episode 5, Jeremy and James picks the 2 best crossover and ended up with a Tiguan 2.0 TDI R-line and CX-5 AWD 2.2. Winner, of course, it's the Tiguan.

Tiguan is the best selling crossover in UK.... hmm....

The mechatronic issue affects the 7-speed dry clutch that is used in the Mk6 Polo TSI, Polo GTI, Golf TSI, Scirocco 1.4 TSI, Passat 1.8, Cross Touran 1.4; the Mk6 Golf GTI uses a 6-speed wet clutch which is far less problematic. Anyway, expect GTI7 to be priced around Rm230k based purely on my opinion.

As for DCC, I've always felt I go around corners quicker in Comfort when I drive the Golf R

Anyone here own jetta? Can gimme some feedbacks regarding this car? Maybe comparing it to golf ?

Nothing - just make sure you service your car per instructed schedule and do it in authorized SC only.

Only difference is after 2 years any claim you need the insurance company to approve it and it takes longer for obvious reasons.

How much and where did you get the OSIR plate/pedals?
