So far bullet proof. I was in your position wanting a used Mk 5, then i saw mk 6 pricing not bad and dropping to 100k. Bought it last year (with some warranty left) and dont regret it.

WTA - anyone here replaced their stock headunit? If yes with what? So far I've seen Dynavin, Blaupunkt 835 and Kenwood DNX535VBT. Any other models or recommendation?

Try this: there are 2 rubber stoppers at the back of your hatch. Take a size 3 hex/allen key, slot into the centre of the rubber and unscrew. pull it out 2-3mm each time and close the hatch for a good fit. If you're happy with the fit, tighten the screw to lock the rubber stoppers in.

That might stop the rattling and may not be your windows.

I accidentally bumped into this fix when I wasnt happy with what my repair workshop did AFTER fixing my rear end. I was knocked from behind by a Myvi on NKVE and after the repairs my rear hatch felt loose. After searching I fixed it and now am super happy.Allen keys can be purchased for around RM10 at your local Ace Hardware / Handyman store.

I know i'm going to get sloshed for this but, it's so strange for people to compare Honda or Toyota for a VW. They may look similar on paper but the driving experience is very different. I get the after-sales-service and cost concern, but in terms of drivability alone it's really different. The better design results in tighter drive, better response, predictability and safety.

If folks are comparing against another Euro like Peugeot or Citroen then maybe, yeah that's a closer comparison.

Yes i've replaced mine (2012 Golf Mk 6 GTI). The front edge near windscreen started to come apart and certain parts were sagging. Covered under warranty. Takes few weeks to order and ship but once it arrives SC will call you and replace it within 2-3 days.

So far more than 1 year already, good stuff.

Apologies @nomar, missed your question earlier.

My VW was under warranty then, so everything was covered. SC did say it costs a few '000 and had to be ordered from Germany, ship to Singapore, then to KL. Takes about 3-4 weeks so pre-order first
