Lots. What do you want to do?
Here's what I wrote for a friend once.
There's quite a bit to do in KL, the main attractions I would say have to do with shopping. Night Markets are all over the place, but I would say the best ones are located in the downtown region close to the KLCC (this is the twin towers). I can't really say which one is the best, since they are all kinda structured the same way. Of course, there is the KLCC or the Twin petronas towers. The first 4 or 5 floors of the building is a shopping mall, so if you fancy a bit of shopping, you have that option. I am not too sure what the process is for you to go up to the top of the building, but I heard you can go to the top between the bridge to have a view. If you don't want to do that, there's always the giant ferres wheel called the Eye on Malaysia or the KL Eye. It's not too far away from the twin towers.
You can also visit the national museum of malaysia and check out all the local history and culture. There are also lots of really cool clubs for a good nightlife. Best one i know of is called "Zouk."
But the main reason why anyone would go to KL is the food. Eat lots. Be sure to try things like cha kui thiau, Assam Laksa, and Nasi Lemak.
If you want to get around, I would suggest the rail system. Taxi is ok, but the cost may add up. It's even better if you know someone who can drive you around.
Not sure how long you plan to stay in KL, but what I suggest so far should keep you busy for a few days. There's also the national science center, and The National Monument (Tugu Negara), though as a born and raised Malaysian, I found it boring, but you might not.
