no sound at all coming from the speakers. I'm sending my K5 for 1st service today, hopefully they can fix the problem, feel very sleepy driving without the radio/cd

does changing the door weather strip have any effect to the cabin/road noise?

Hi, the fuel consumption is not too bad, on average I get about 650KM per full tank of abt RM 125 and my driving style varies...i travel at about 140km/h daily as I commute from Damansara to Cyberjaya for work everyday...Power is adequate when you are driving alone.....but when you have 5 people in the car, its better to just cruise tongue.gif..

Handling is good with no complains, standard tires a bit noisy though but this can be rectified by upgrading to quieter ones.....not sure if chaning to a new set of tires would rectify that "jumpy steering" symptom..I do notice that wind noise is apparent once you go past 120KM on the driver side...but some forummers have mentioned that buying those rubber strips from jayongmall would lessen the exterior noises..you can always consider those 3rd party soundproofing if its not quiet enough for you...its not that bad though..

All in all no regrets and loving each day with the car...

Just been told by the service guy that they suspect the problem is with the amplifier. They will order a new amp, and replace it under warranty.

guys i need some advice. im thinking of down sizing my rims to 17" with either 235/45R17 Goodyear Asy 2 or 225/55R17 Pirelli P7 tyres, reasons simply because the rims and tyres are alot cheaper than the 18". is that a good move?

i think, when idle, the engine cannot disperse the heat generated better/more efficient than when the car moving. Coz when idle, u only have the fan to cool the radiator, but when moving, u have the fan and moving air.

So when too much heat during break in period prolly will cause damage to certain parts that are not yet really fit in

For mine I think engine damage liao coz how can we not keep the car idle for 3 minutes? This is Malaysia man! sad.gif
Don't say 3 minutes, sometime half an hour also kena


Added on July 16, 2012, 9:07 pmToday at Kesas I was driving side by side with K5 buddy bright silver ww*5585 biggrin.gif
I didn't see the driver's face clearly but he was also looking at me, we kind of admire each other's car ha ha biggrin.gif
Is the owner here?

I've actually tried that method before (on/off the car), and the weird thing were every time I turned the engine on, the speaker would function for about 5 to 10 seconds before it became completely silent again. But for these to happen, the head unit must already be turned on before turning the engine on.

The service centre already ordered a new amplifier but unfortunately, because the amp is not in stock, it needs to be ordered from Korea. I was told it might take up to 3 months sad.gif Is this true?

What a pity, cannot enjoy the infinity speaker cry.gif

This will be a good experience to gauge how far Naza is willing to go for this brand...they tell you 3 months but if you receive good news before the stipulated timeframe..I would say that is good service...Exceed expectation so to speak....


Added on July 17, 2012, 1:13 amI just wanted to ask you guys about the 'jumpy steering' that some of us here are facing....during stationary, when you turn the steering in any direction; sometime during the revolution, there will be a fraction of a second point where my steering 'jumps' a bit but very faintly..you would definitely be able to feel it. ...do any of you experienced this? wonder if I need to send to SC to take a look..
