CRZ is strictly a 2 seater ler .. which most malaysian are not familiar with aka always thinking car must have 4 seats. It for you to drive to where ever without the baggage aka the gf, the wife & the kids and not forgetting the maid.

hi all, want to check with u all. at early day first time start your car, can you just turn on the fan only without air con?
i get a very sour smell from the air vent. if air con turn on and after a while this smell will gone. it only happen when air con is off.
do suspect the plastic carpet also...but almost 4months using the car and only lately i found that the smell is getting strong.

My car got that smell too. not only when first start. each time you off compressor for too long and leave only fan running, i will get that smell. And not only in car, sometimes also get that funny smell for house air cond too when run only fan and compressor off for long time. The smell could be due to moisture of the damp condensor coil in the aircond system.

i also no idea...what i can do now is cut more pandan leaf and throw inside the car. or maybe buy a bag of charcoal and put inside.
i think if u complain this to SC, they will just ask u remove the carpet and try. i think this being mention at early thread.

Hi everyone
I guess i shall stop updating on the 2nd section as nobody have time to check on the trouble of our insight involve and the solution.
About the air con smell during the start :
Air-con system - When you just press for air-con , you can smell a wired perfume. Please ask service center to check the air filter to get replace.
I have ask the service center to check and they have replace it for me. Now I do not have this wired smell anymore. Please faster go to service center and ask them to check the air con filter located on our left passenger cabin compartment section.

i think my car's jerking issue is mostly due to low battery states.. coz when it starts to jerk, i look at the battery level, it's always recharging.
but somehow i'm uncertain, it looks like recently the battery goes empty faster and recharge faster too..?

today i saw a new insight with new colour. The car drove from Kota Kemuning towards Hicom Industrial area.
I don't know how to describe the colour. Is between gray and black. It hangs a special plate number as well... some sort of commercial plate (B2109X)
It comes with a plastic rim cover instead of alloy rims....
Sorry, i don;t have a pic. driving... cannot take pic
