VW review in the US is also quite bad for reliability and maintenance. their sales over there is also much much lower than the japanese or korean cars.

QUOTE That's the problem when service and car sales both are profit center. Both need to make money. Consumer die. totally agree with takadanicklagi on this, it never bodes well for the brand when they split the service centres from the sales unit. IMHO basically at this point VW is just selling off their old models at mad discounts then when something happens they quote you some stupid price to recover back some of the profits that were lost. So it's really up to your luck if you got a car in good condition which is technically unethical but not necessarily illegal. |

QUOTE(kadajawi @ May 22 2016, 02:53 PM) Peugeot is very popular in Spain... which, guess what, has hot weather. Much hotter than Malaysia. are the models in Spain coming from same factory as Malaysia? do they use the same rubber seals that's prone to leaks like Malaysia versions? Also is Spain a tropical country with 24/7 summer? Is it as humid as Malaysia???VW engines are decent to drive, and quite powerful for their size, but the fuel consumption... I only got 550 km out of a full tank (had to fill in 50 liters...), and I was mostly doing 160, sometimes 200. Going light on the accelerator. One thing though... avoid the DSG. Their manual boxes have improved a lot and are good fun these days. No need to worry about rolling back down a hill... just activate the auto hold function, and it will hold the brakes for you until you roll forward. VW needs to bring in manual models... they are nothing like the crappy Japanese manual gearboxes you learn to drive on. Easy to use, fun, ... Pugs in Malaysia are problematic, like it or not, you have to face it. Pre-Price Turbo ones are good. |

Just burn the bloody VW and claim insurance for electrical fault. Fire was started by damaged short circuited wiring caused by animal bites that VW Malaysia didn't repair.  |

QUOTE(kadajawi @ May 22 2016, 02:59 PM) When the fuel gauge got stuck in my Citroen they wanted to change many things, though they knew only one cheap part was causing the issue. Ended up not getting it fixed (Citroen only sells the needed part as part of a big kit...). consumer power & big in Europe and consumers are smarter there, no way they gonna agree on it unless it's a super sophisticated part that cost more to disassemble & fix.I wouldn't be surprised if they'd change the whole harness in Germany, but I doubt it would cost so much. |

I think they dunno how to fix. So sell you a 2nd hand VW, take back your VW and use the parts sell it to the next guy. Profit$$$.
So bodoh: 1) The car parts so easily exposed and bit by rats? 2) If one wire putus, why need to replace the whole she-bang?? Whoever that guy is, should make formal complaint to small court tribunal...but i believe small court tribunal up to 25k only....this one needs the higher court? Not sure. |
