wah wah wah, why so angry.............
got my car for 1 month already, clocked 46++km, need to change the oil filter for 5000km next week, but only filter, since already using fully synthetic oil...
FC : High way @ 130-140km/h, around RM 0.145/km....
Normal drive (70% highway, 30% city) around RM 0.17-0.18/km..
issues:
1. Radio - probably not the one I want... really bad reception, maybe becoz of the antenna?
2. GPS - lagging, I use papago with my handphone better, should be the processor of the HU
3. Rattling sound - now can hear some very light sound from the back, not sure where it comes from, only notice when player is MUTE
4. Handling - Still floaty, and seems like steering vibrate a little stronger than expected between 110km/h to 120km/h, above 130km/h, cant feel anymore
5. steering sound, when turn fast, can hear like belt sound, saw this complaint from others also
Overall, still love my 1.8....
bro, mind telling me ur model, color, booking n collection date for me to update the owner list. thanks

oh n region too.

Thks for being a witness. We are in this thread long enough. No need to explain ourselves. And I have always openly show my hate on ppl using 2nd hand value to deter others from buying good cars (VW, fiesta, forte, hyundai etc). And a damn jackass who were never here, pop in mention tat word again. So I screw that word and was accused a salesman. Tats y need to defense.
All who I have recommend my SA here, knows at I don't want anything to do with it. Just give SA name, number and ask contact him direct. I already done deal with him long ago and satisfied with discount + service. So dowan to be middleman. No commission also.
I think everyone made their opinion here loud and clear. Let's move on bros
PS: still no car ler bro ... xien mou

This my 1st posting after collected my car. I bought my Elantra 1.8 from Palm Motor Puchong. Overall they are good dealer with supportive salesperson.
My opinion:-
NVH: Very good with minimal engine noise. But the 17" tyre noise is quite noticable above 70km/hr and quite loud on certain type of road. Wind noise is almost none even at 140km/hr (tried only twice going until 140km/hr).
Comfort: Superb with excellent and ergonomic driver's seat.
FC: Decent. About 500km per 45L tank. Travel daily from Puchong to KL. 60~70% slow traffic. Average speed clocked is 25km/h (since new). Current car total mileage 1500km. 17" tyre pressure 220-230kPa.
Handling: Good and responsive. The still new 17" tyres help with having good grip on the road.
A/C system: Auto a/c works very well to cool the cabin in very short period. The a/c which always maintain minimal 10% outside air causing outside odor (esp white fumes frm immediate front car) noticable. But the smell normally goes off quite fast.
Unhappy with:
Audio system;
Engine become a bit noisier at low rev after 1,000km service replacing semi-syn oil (SC reported to HSDM technician, will send in the car next week);
Not a good feeling when going over hump (due to lighter rear part?)
Overall it is a nice car to drive around. Donwside is dunno somehow engine become noisier at low rev after 1st service.
Anyone having same problem here?
Congratz bro on your new ride, mind sharing ur model, color, booking n collection n region u r from for me to update the owner list. thanks
