  1. Yup will lose that functionality, but guess I can live with it. Don't want to open the stock headlamps, as sealing it back is never the same, and knowing VW shitty policies, they will have one more excuse to void my warranty :P

    What warranty are u talking about [emoji6]

  2. Technically they should be LED it's pretty expensive, and usually seen in likes of A4, I guess it is a typo on the site and what they meant was headlights with LED DRL, have to wait and see.

    Will be going to auto expo tomorrow. Let's see if I am able to find out anything.

  3. So VW just launched the Vento and Polo with more cosmetic updates, the car is completely feature packed now.

     

    Features added

     

    Auto dimming IVRM

    5" Touch screen head unit

    Rain sensing wipers

    LED headlamps and DRL's (only in vento)

     

    Need to see how I can get hands on the headlamps now :P

    What are LED headlamps? Does it mean led drl's or the headlamps have LED's instead of bulbs

  4.  

     

    And the work in progress

     

     

     

     

    It seems u r close to spending moolah worth a Polo Gt in modifications itself. BTW nice choice of audio equipment. U r turning it into a hell of a sexy ride. Good luck.

  5. Lol, well honestly if u ask me, the only thing that looks viable is that vento gets the 1.4 manual, jetta gets the 1.4 tsi DsG. Don't forget beetle comes with the 1.4 tsi DsG, they would probably want to give that engine option in a competing price segment. A 1.4 manual(current jetta engine) will make vento more powerful and desirable compared to city and Verna.

    Might be. But I think a Vento 1.4 DSG might be more viable and they may discontinue the Jetta 1.4 as it does not sell. Also they should seriously consider including paddle shifters in the Tsi as it will give a definitive advantage over the competition.

  6. Very tough, even jetta does not get the 1.4 tsi with DsG, if it comes to that, jetta will get it before vento

    Dude u r not helping. [emoji6] Already I am trying to postpone the purchase by a year and now u r not letting me even being optimistic.

  7. Na don't think so, they will be reaching jetta and superb AT territory, won't work at all. Sweet spot would be around 15-17.5 lacs

    Let's hope for the best. I wish they plonk the same engine in Vento as well. If not 1.8 then at least a 1.4

  8. Why not sell the i10 and get the Polo Gt, that is a hoot to drive, btw the three launches this year from VW

     

    1. Ameo

    2. Polo GTI

    3. Tiguan.

     

    Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

    i10 is driven by my wife. Regarding the launches..GTi seems out of budget, Ameo might be interesting, but Tiguan has definitely has me hooked. If they launch a AT version in less than 15 lacs then I m game.

  9. Yup I can relate, I had been driving the city and totally loved it, until I drove the Vento, well it is not fair to compare a recent car with almost a 5 yr old car, but still Germans have won me over.

     

    Koreans are anyway all bling no substance. An option for yiu could be to add a second car in your stable with the Ameo while holding on to your rapid, ofcourse if the budget allows.

    Well I already have a 2 year old i10 AT as a second drive. Its the one that has been pushing me towards a 2nd AT. My running is not much hence will be going for Petrol AT.

  10. The DSG issues seems to be solved fir now, but ya you never know. The way market is hotting up might have some good launches by then too. Best of luck for your purchase and car hunting [emoji4]

    Yeah..will be visiting Auto Expo as well. But not very hopeful as after driving Rapid its very difficult to drive the Japs or the Koreans.

  11. Na seems the synthetic oil change has fixed it for good, have not read much on the team bhp as well, who might have reported it. Plus they can only deny my electrical warranty not anything related to gearbox, just in case.

     

    Thinking of putting these alloys next.

    Excellent choice. Will definitely look much better than the stock ones. Even I was looking for an AT sedan just a couple of weeks before. Did TD almost all in my budget. Wanted to go for Vento Tsi but the DSG niggles held me back. Also since was not getting a good value for my Rapid, decided to postpone the decision for next year.

    Till then will keenly follow ur posts as well as T-bhp.
