yes [strike]mine[/strike] my wife is CFE, I'm not sure why does they don't integrate it with the radio LCD maybe get more money selling those come with LCD, but I got it for free so thinking of rewiring it to the radio LCD, still possible right?

i think no need all this fuss to remove the small lcd screen...cause u will the mechanic ripped out ur whole dashboard, take out headunit to install...simply to change the wire to connect to HU...if u can find any workshop willing do all this fuss for free, go ahead...

As long as it's within the recommended viscosity range stated in the service booklet, and most importantly, suits your budget and usage.

Not enough padding or no sound insulation inside the door?

Was only using D mode. Only use the paddler shifter when I'm overtaking or when I need extra oomph
My dad was saying cannot be right your car jerking like that and making such noise haha
Thanks for replying guys. Appreciate it.

hi all, erm, not really clear bout what happened, but from complete stop to move during uphill, the cvt will let the engine to rev higher than normal to avoid sudden stall coz punch cvt is clutch based, same as when u r driving uphill from complete stop to move, u need to rev a bit more before releasing the clutch. The judder u feel maybe due to clutch drag and also an effect from low ratio pulley. Normally d mode, it will try to move to high ratio as soonest possible to aid fuel efficiency.

Since there r some torque reduction happened to ease slow moving motion, rather than instant power(quite dangerous if this happened which be like a rubberband), its one of the strategies so that it will avoid any unwanted sudden acceleration due to overrev. It is easier to overrev cvt based car coz not totally link to the gear ratio like normal manual gbox. While normal at used torque converter to control torque, this using clutch action n drive by wire sensor. Traction cntrl alsoo being used to prevent the wheel from spinning faster than it shud be.

I dunno whether this will help u, but checking during servicing wont do any harm.

For speaker vibration, i think maybe need to refit back the door panel(for front doors).

For suspension sound at back, i think its the fitting of top mount of the suspension isnt at its spot, causing the touching action. Normally, loosen up all the screws n refitting back will solve the problems.

Haish, assembly line workers tido ke.....passion is important in doing a job, even passion is one of the important elements being stress out before, still some neglected it. Its ur pride n honour to assembly urs truly car maker, be proud of it. I know, maybe the salary isnt high enough, but be patient, if we do it right, i,Allah, in the future, it will be better.

Salam.

What's the Pros and Cons of using Semi-Synthetic oil and Full-Synthetic oil? Other than 5000km service and 10,000km service.
