Dear all

Been spending time with my PCC over a month now, and I must say its been worth the wait even after all the drama...

Just some of my feedback so far:-

1) Bluetooth (premium) - tried Exoticmods PJ but until now they are still out of stock, I wouldn't mind asking the Singaporean guy to come again if any of you with me on this ?

2) Sunroof - Ive added a tint and it became too dark, as existing glass is already very dim, so if you still want yours to be relevant just add a less powerful tint one will do.

3) Tyre Pressure (235/40/R18) - according the manufacturer's figures on the oil cap, it states that pressure should be for 38, 41 and even up to 48 depending on load. But asked my VW SA he said vaguely around 32 - 35 can do liao smile_blackeye.gif , which I find it can be too soft (and m sure its not good for the tyres)....
So I am quite confused on this. Appreciiate any of your feedback!!


I have the same problem, I did put 41psi, the car ride is like a boat, and less grip which made me feel very uncomfortable. Then I slowly adjusted to 33psi, the grip is best , but a bit too soft. Now I put 36 psi ( front ) and 37 psi ( rear ). I feel it just nice ( as you can see from the tyre thread surface, if too high pressure, the wear mark will mainly in the center, if too soft, the wear mark will be more than the edge ). Hope this help.

Another thing to remember is the temperature inside the tire.
Cool and heated temperature in tires have different pressure.

Your right ... thats why if I do go to air pump it will be the 1st thing of my trip when tire is still cool, should be more accurate that way.

I have decided to follow the manufacturers recommendation on the petrol cap and pump min 38 for the tires ....your right as well theres a reason why the scientists are there to come out with this, and not listen to some ah beng Sales guy simply taruh.

I did check my cc tyre pressure when I collected the car, was 38psi. It's up to you to adjust as it will determine whether your car handling will be understeer or oversteer.

with 38psi, the ride is harsh with 18". hope the rattles dont develop and the old bones still intact.

Wow, you guys drive until over/under steer? I hardly do that, haha.
With CC's weight and tires size, it takes some efforts to go to the edge tongue.gif

My CC so far so good. Send your car back, most probably due to the rubber seal after so long in the Port.

There is possibility you would get less accessories after the price increase.
