Guys...my SA said installing tint outside from their panel will void the VGM warranty. Is this true? However, installing leather on seat & door wont. This is very strange...installing leather will require much more dismantling right.

QUOTE(hapeace @ Aug 22 2013, 12:36 PM) this time was definitely wheel hop. i always do the wheel spin in the basement parking and i love the tyre screeching sound. but this morning is SCARY sound. Saw the video. I think mine is just wheel spin under traction control when doing u-turn or slightly sandy-road, from zero. Hard to see if anything crack unless send to mechanic to inspect for 'wheel hop'. exactly like in this video. suddenly whole car vibrate youtube link. dont know how to put code here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHlEWHJ-o2w Send to SC, they sure say no problem QUOTE(Hizami_83 @ Aug 22 2013, 01:44 PM) Guys...my SA said installing tint outside from their panel will void the VGM warranty.

The main point is find those tinter outside, who deals with conti cars. They will know the sensors in front dashboard, etc. and will take pre-caution.Even installing leather seat, the person must know about those conti cars, where the airbag locations, and not to sew "tight" or leave gap in those areas. |

the new gti is terribly expensive...and say hi to the options game...i think VW malaysia could've priced the gti at less than 190k at about 180+k and still make a profit but they're too greedy....

Was told that VW is offering RM 12,600 discount for the VW CC Comfortline. This makes the CC about RM28K cheaper than the BMW 320i. Besides the engine and transmission which the BMW is supreme, what other plus points does the CC have over the 320i?

Just came back from checking out the Golf GTI Mk7. Damn, the car is sweet, love the interior and the new colour MFD and option settings. Everything in the car screams new and modern. Just don't fancy the car's butt.

QUOTE(fr0sti3 @ Aug 23 2013, 02:58 PM) current new CC is using same drive train as passat (1.8 tsi with dq200 7 spd dry dsg) Did about 3 test drives on the CC and 2 on the 320i today. I must say im quite impressed with the CC. Despite being a 1.8L vs the 2.0L 320i, i didnt really feel the difference in power. The gearshifts on the 320i was quite seemless but the 7 speed DSG wasnt far behind at all. Taking into account the better specs, more executive interior of the CC and the 23K cheaper price tag, im quite inclined towards the CC now compared to the 320i. 320i still better, 2.0 turbo engine + ZF 8spd autobox What do you think? |

Just pray very hard that the 7-speed DSG gearbox doesn't cause you any grief. In terms of after service, I would recommend that you choose a dealer with a good reputation. Otherwise get a lot of headaches as well. This goes for both marques.What do you think? |

Test drove the Mk7 Gti today, will test drive again tomorrow lol
engine sound is different, Mk6 Gti is better i think less thick steering wheel compared to mk6 gti power is more low down due to the 350Nm torque very confident handling, and this is without DCC and the diff from PPack(coming soon) discount for RM5k to upgrade to tech pack and RM1.5K top up for 19" santiago rims |
