Yap, that forum is great....for my VW golf that goes triger happy with the "Check engine light"

VW sucks big time.

I get one check engine light every month, how about you?

I got 2001 Golf 1.8T. Brizlian made.

Touareg Our Touareg has been great!

Check engine light on a GTI simply means the car wants more horsepower! Or maybe its time to get the MKV GTI 2.0TFSI.

You drive a Touareg in Singapore?

You rich mofo

Spending $500 a week on gas?

The vw golfs in sg, where are they made? The mexican and brazilian made vw in U.S are worthless.

 

 

 

clue: Check the door panel sticker

yup, you can find out when where and which of your car is made etc from the VIN number. It can be decoded referring to a chart and you will know about ur car's "shen chen ba zi". I don't drive the touareg, my dad does. I'm having the GTI.. It has been great

If you get a Touareg/phaeton from car and cars, it is made in germany. For the GTI, some GTI owners who got their ride from c&c claim that they are not made in germany. Whereas those who got the GTI from PI are made in germany.

u are right... but i thought 2001 golf gti should be made in wolfsburg germany... unless they brought in the south african ones. cannot be brazilian made ones... dont think brazilian plants manufacture RHD. Also, the freight will kill them.

 

as for touareg,.. .they should be made in dresden (same plant as phaeton),.. or wolfsburg.

golf V gti brought in by C&C -- 5 door made in south africa. 3 door made in wolfsburg.

that's why the OMV is the same.

 

the new Jetta (dont know when they'll bring in), is only made in mexico (both LHD + RHD)... so its should be from there.

 

Polo should be from south africa.

 

neu passat should be from wolfsburg too, ... but judging from the problems owners faced here, it could be south african made too.

 

bettle - only mexico made them... so its only place of origin is there.

 

Eos - if they ever bring in... should be made in belgium or portugal.

Hi bro,

 

Only the Phaeton is manufactured in Dresden. Confirmed this when I visited the Glass Factory in Dresden last Dec.
