RM1k+ for the T4 + 3M HP. Trying to find the lowest possible price

Few shops in Damansara quoted this price. The infamous 3M authorized shop in the forum as well

Perhaps we can do a group buy

The reason I chose the Llumar T4-50 (4mil) + 3M HP is that:

1) Charcoal coloured tint (not green/gold/blue)
2) Matching color tint 3M + Llumar (if not careful, you will have different color on the front/back + side)
3) GPS, Cellphone, RFID friendly
4) 4mil security film, good enough to prevent motorcyclist from trying to break your window and doesn't stress the power window motor. Even 6-8mil will not prevent your car from broken into if it was parked in places that attracted such thief

If money is no issue, you can get crystaline 70 for the front but keep the rear in HP so that the side and rear are smoked black.

Waiting for delivery of the vehicle. It should be within these 2 weeks. Will get it done ASAP. Another very important thing I want to get is the cargo tray. This is partially a business car and there is a lot of cargo being loaded in and out a day

These are particular parts that I'm very interested in getting for my car

Compared to many cars, the cx-5's electric steering is one of the best. Try a sonata and u will know how bad a poorly implemented electric steering could be

Wouldn't happen to be from Sg. Buluh would it?

Who is waiting for the latest batch with cars still stuck at port? Been waiting over 2 weeks since car arrived at port. Getting annoyed with Bermaz

April. There are a ton of cars at the port now. Had 2 bookings. 1 came with 17" another 19" as I originally booked. Verified with the given VIN number. Same price so I went with the dealer that has the 19". Also managed to squeeze a free car plate 6xx6 in

Anybody taking delivery this week asking for year end discount?

Taking delivery of a 19" alu cx-5 Tuesday/Wednesday. Free car plate xyyx number. Hoping to get another tank of gas foc

After 6 months of long painful wait, finally taking the car this week. 19" rim, free plate number, free full tank gas.

After half a year of waiting, I've finally taken delivery of my brand new 2WD Aluminum Metallic CX-5. The car is <80KM and it drives absolutely like CRAP.

I was not surprised as I've tested this car in many different mileage, as a matter of fact in more than 1 country as well. The brand new non-broken in engine, n00bie ECU driving pattern is extremely conservative as many reviews have noted...which I believe are based on brand new car. The transmission up shifts very quickly and quietly to 3/4th gear. Once there, the car loses pick up and barely moves. Hence many complaint that it's underpowered. However, I knew that's not true as I've tested broken in units before with over 4-6k KM on them.

Looks like sensei has gotta tech the car how to drive these few months .

PS: First day traffic jam like hell. Drove the car all the way from Gombak back to KL and it capped 10.xL/100KM. Excellent mileage for a car of this size. The E200 Kompressor at home does 13L+

Took the car to Starblaze to have it tinted today. Averaged 11KM/100L today. Still behaves the same, transmission up shifts very quickly, RPM is always kept around 2000+/-. You have to press the pedal over 50% before the car downshifts and accelerate. Guess the fastest way to make it behave aggressively is to shift to semi auto or reflash the ECU if this options becomes available in the future.

Don't see any difference. The coating isn't really particularly great. Tree saps are still rather hard to clean off

Yup. The response is getting more aggressive but it's still on the conservative side. The transmission upshifts very quickly once you release the pedal. Fc is around 11 in the city. Drops quickly on hwy or when there is no jam

Does anybody know

How to disable "Traffic not available" notification?

A defect has been found on the CX-5.
Dash Rattle

Description of problem:
The contact point of the center dash to the chassis is missing a foam padding which resulted in loud rattle of the car when running over bumps. Mine is particularly loud. Need to bring it in to get it fixed. Whole dash must come out. Another owner on Mazda247s has also reported the issue. There should be a TSB in the near future

My car is from the latest batch. So I'd imagine everybody is affected. It is whether you hear it or not. Ill send you a pm, maybe we can bring It in together. Wasted 4 hours at glenmarie the other day just to have them remove two speaker grills. The dealership will call mazda next week to schedule an appointment for a consultation. I am bringing it to pj this time.

After spoken to Mr. Yap at Mazda PJ, I'm glad to say that finally there's someone who knows what they are doing in Mazda. In the next few days I'll gather all the necessary information for them to study the problem. Anybody who wants to bring in their car to get it fixed please contact me
