Irangan, will come back to you on the rain coating thingy but i think it work something like a product called Rain X that was introduced many years ago but this one supposedly can last for at least 1 yr hence the 1 yr warranty

Thanks for reposting my data from my blog, bro.

Was rather surprised why suddenly there is a spike on the blog's traffic hits .... Until I saw in the Kia Malaysia Facebook page that they've used my entry to promote their contest.

Hi, i just went for a test drive at bangsa KIA. The SA who was showing me the car didnt know how to change the LCD display. I wanted to drive with the display showing how much of petrol consumption. However the SA couldnt be bother and asked me to drive. Anyway, after the test drive he asked another SA to help change the dsiplay and it shows 18.1lt/100km.

Question: Is this accurate? What does this mean? Does it mean that according to the last 'drive' the fuel consumption is 18.1lt/100km?

My concern is that although NAZA claims the fuel consumption of a K5 is approximately 7.6lt/100km, will this deterioate after time. If it does, how fast will it happen?

I remeber seeing someone posted here that his fuel consumption is 10.(something)lt/100km for a 3 months car.

Btw, the car i tested in Bangsa Kia is a 2011 and not a 2012 car.

Obviously, it is not accurate. Fuel consumption for K5 is on par with the rest of the car in segment D.

My consumption is around 9.25lt / 100km. Much depends on your way of driving.

Dear all K5 fans,
I am considering SG, my only worry is do I need to re-paint my car after say 5 years? I mean they offer 5 years warranty, let say after 5 years all the coating disappear, will the coating eaten up the paint?

Poor decision in my opinion. Koup is for singles not those married couples intending to have kids.

Hi, I believe this depends on how well you maintain the paint within that 5 years, if you are the sort who regularly wash, polish and park the car indoor during the night/day. Then i dont foresee there is a need to repaint. I regularly clean my car and polish and now after 5 years, after a nice wash. The paint still looks brand new.

But my question sounds stupid because coating is suppose to protect the car pain right? sad.gif
