Checked with SA and still uncertain of when is the delivery date. They claim that the next shipment arriving is 15th Sept and only then will know how many cars. Otherwise, next shipment lo Really speechless, how Nissan perform their business? not knowing which order and when deliver....... shouldn't for each order and lock to the system and all the way to the planning, production, delivery, inspection, etc?

Antzfield, i bet good thing does not come easily.  Indeed, it happened to all "car booking". Not just Nissan. The best is that u get some contact, and ordered the car through a friend. Again, we should congratulate ourselves for making a wise choice as the car really overbooked. TCM had actually identified the void of the MPV market pretty well for this round.

However, I thought other car makes able to give rough estimates of when car should be ready. This goes to my other car, Honda. Anyway, I should "enjoy" the wait la

CBU usually like that. If your car is listed in next shipment, you're lucky loh.

Just found out that the Serena cruise control max speed is set at 108km/h. If you drive faster than 108km/h, you can't set the cruise control, regardless of whether you are in ECO mode or not. At 108km/h, the true speed is only 102km/h! I don't see any note on this in the owner's manual or find anything on this in the web. Anyone has any idea how to bypass this so call safety feature?

QUOTE(JazzSerena @ Sep 11 2013, 11:20 PM) Why is actual speed only 102? To my understanding, all our cars speedometer is set at roughly 5% higher than the actual speed. If your speedometer shows that you are going at a speed of 110km/h, you are actually going at around 105km/h. To know your actual speed, you can refer to your gps speed. This is probably done to avoid you from over speeding.

Have you try send back to service center to see if they can make any adjustment on the car electronic system? I have never try cruise control before. No chance to go out station yet.

No chance to go out station yet. They told me it is safety feature and they will not disable this feature (even if they know how to) To me, driving at 108km/h with auto cruise control is more dangerous than driving at faster speed with auto cruise control because the former will tend to make you feel sleepy.

Meaning that service center don't know how to disable or adjust the top speed of cruise control? Ya I agree with you, driving 100km/h on a 2.0 car indeed will make u feel sleepy. So no other solution?

Anyone encountered any issues with the auto idling system? 3 days ago I was driving down to jb from kl.. Suddenly the auto idling light on dash board started blinking non stop. After stopping to check for a few times, the auto idling indicator stopped completely.. No more lite up.. Even after turning the auto idling off to on or off.. The S-hybrid does not work anymore.. But after 3 days.. It sometimes turns on by itself.. But off later on.. Now at service center checking..
