bad news. today my side view mirror kena smash by speeding lorry at federal highway.....RM1000 plus to replace....have to wait a week as well.....haish....

the RM1000 quote from SC la....price is only for ONE side. its driver side mirror.

the electric motor still ok but the mirror already come out, have to put tape. also the cover (the painted part) also hancur on the road. so no choice but to change the entire unit.

update after 6 months usage:

1)Fuel consumption: daily driving mixed h-way and normal start stop traffic: 9.0l per 100km (average).

2)Highway only: 7.0l per 100km (average speed of 115km, anything above 120km/hr will make fuel consumption suffer!

Interior:

1)Seat yik yik sound-solved by not putting the height of the seat too high. Especially for big sized people like me (6ft and 100kg)
2)door buzzing during high bass music-adjust the seat belt limiter lower and issue solved
3) no other sounds at the moment
4)sound system no issue. USB,IPod and others all working very well.

External

paint still ok. no bubbling or anything, except that the paint job a little thin. nothing to complain for the price paid.

Spare parts may be a bit costly.

tires getting a little loud but that is due to daily wear and tear. my other cars also same problem. Nothing to complaint about

After Sales support:

Compared to Nissan and Honda the support is the same or better.

Using NSS to service car. No major issues so far.

OVERALL:

Very satisfied. Exceeded expectations.

guys, i know the center console gets a bit warm but now getting a bit irritating. any products to resolve it? too many pages back to search...

hmm...SC got do something....maybe have to check the next time...anyone else resolved this issue?

as a comparison, my dad has never complained about sitting in the back seat before in my xtrail. but the other day he mentioned that the forte back seat not very comfortable for long distance. but he say not so bad la. i think due to the bumpy ride because of the low profile 17" tires and the short bench contribute to the comfort factor.

conclusion: if solo then forte all the way, if family take xtrail.
