Camrysfa Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 Like I mentioned. It's the quality of the customer service quality. If they brush comprains and feedback aside, ignoring customers requests the more ppl will get to hear of it. If customers are well taken care of and comprains quickly addressed you will hear less or non of it. It doesn't mean that the usual problems are not there. Is it difficult to get a svc appt for VW? . . . . . as I see they only have 2 places ( LK & MacP ) Whereas, Borneo Motors has 7 centres, spread over N,S,E,W regions. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithchue 5th Gear February 20, 2014 Author Share February 20, 2014 Exactly! CASE? Pls laaaaa. Might be more efficient to send in debt collectors. At least they do REAL work. Btw, who is paying CASE's salary hur? Hope not tax payers.. maybe us, as we need to pay a service fee... day 3 - no calls from anyone yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic February 20, 2014 Share February 20, 2014 maybe us, as we need to pay a service fee... day 3 - no calls from anyone yet Be patient..... You are lucky if you get any response within 2 weeks. Normally, this will be escalating to various departments in an organisation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matoonia 6th Gear February 20, 2014 Share February 20, 2014 I think you will be better off selling your VW and get a Skoda, since there are sensitivities to the car you drive. Sell your Jetta and get a Superb http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/newcars_overview.php?CarCode=10697 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell your Jetta and get a Superb http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/newcars_overview.php?CarCode=10697 wanted to change car.. that is only when VW allows a full refund of purchase price and compensation...based on the 60% loan rule. if I sell car now, can only cover the loan outstanding... skoda no such problems??

Skoda is seen like a poorer cousin to Volkswagen in Singapore, so you will have no problems. Some folks may not have even heard of this brand. This superb is 6 speed DSG, so lesser problems I guess. Most importantly, i think it's understated, and it's really a very good car Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xefera 6th Gear February 20, 2014 Share February 20, 2014 coincidentally, I met a consultant director ytd mentioned he dumped his 1 yo audi q5 due to jerky movement at low gear, feeling like car not gonna move. Looks like car owners gotta be careful b4 buyin certain ride makes. some how audi cars with turbo engine has this low gear problem. it will jerk 1-2 times before moving off, not sure if anything to do with the turbo spooling up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ttbest 3rd Gear February 21, 2014 Share February 21, 2014 this sound like a very unhealthy local culture. just curious, do you work in a local company? or company with mostly singaporeans? i'm asking because i work in an american company that has a mix of local and foreigners. it is very common to see subordinates driving expensive cars and their directors with half a million annual salary taking taxis or public transport without any unhealthy tension at all. i think westerners have a very different value system to cars as compared to locals. and being red-eye about others driving a more expensive car just shows how small-minded these people are. i feel that not being able to celebrate and appreciate other's success will also limit one's own heart and success in some ways. You said it urself in ur statement, u r comparing local culture, specifically pointing and singling out Singaporeans so does that not make for local bashing? You can love your westerns all u want but I guess I have a right to refute ur statement that westerns are better than locals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
