MY11 Models - Changes + New Unlimited Kilometre Warranty

[cameron4290]

Hi,

I ordered a 118TSI on the weekend and was told that it would be a MY11 model as the car was going to be built to order (arrives in September most likely - aargh so far away!). I didnt really pay much attention to it at the dealer, but does anyone know of any changes for the MY11 model?

Cheers

No.

There has been no annoucnement on MY11 changes for Australia.

[team_v]

America had MY changes but they have very different model structures and most off the changes were to options included on the various models.

Since we don't get the model structure they do (our options are mostly individual and not bundled together) there won't be much of a difference, maybe interior lighting or something.

[Corey_R]

MY11 builds

Hi Guys,

I am about to order a new Golf 118TSI. Is any new order that requires a build from now automatically a MY11 model?

[Transporter]

To my knowledge MY11 build starts from July 2010 production.

[Cossor]

have been told by dealer my car will be MY11
darn it, missed out on the fog lights! (Now only with sports pack)

[skings]

is the major benefit of a my11 build the fact that it wont have some of those niggling issues that have occured in some my10 cars? what other advantages are there?
I am still waiting to find out if my car is a MY11 or MY10

[Corey_R]

No... look at my post above with my 'quote' on the changes. That's what the changes are

[skings]

ahh cheers coreying...i just thought a my11 might sound newer during a potential re-sale

[Corey_R]

It will depending on how you're selling it. Privately, it usually does. To a dealer or car yard, they're concerned with the build date (not even the compliance date).

[Guest1306]

Whats new in the MY11 models?

In WA we only ever look at Compliance date!


Sent from my iPhone using it's keypad!

[Corey_R]

Lol... last time I said that dealers would look at compliance date as well (since sometimes you can have a build date which is many months, even a year in extreme cases, before the compliance, for whatever reason) and several dealers then argued and said it's not relevant, only the build date! hehe

Well there you go

[REXman]

Yeah I have only ever looked at either Model (eg MY09) and then BUILD date. never looked at compliance or asked of it before..

[PhillipAudiDealer]

No.

There has been no annoucnement on MY11 changes for Australia.

For golf a few changes none to the look of the car.. Bluetooth will be a factory option prodution starts week 22 for golf 77 mans are gone aswell as 103 . this is to make way for GTD 125 Manuels which is far enough Mans are not a huge seller here in Oz although Canberra always a strong market for Mans and as dealers it is hard work stocking all the models at one time. Of course Tigs now go DSG already been talked about on here 7speed.. yahoo.. again Blutooth factory order. Hill Start assist will be standerd on all models in Mans. (cool) Passat CC Blutooth will standard.. eos colours... No more Biscay in Tig.. (sad sad day) . All I can Share..
