Any of you guys had the rear number plate n frame dropped off before? I think I squeezed my sales advisor too much till she used cheapo tape to stick my number plate. (bought from atiara in taman megah)
Is it advisable to drill holes to mount the frame to the boot? Scared it might rust...

Any of you guys can recommend a good place to install a reverse camera on the CFE in subang or nearby?
I am reluctant to cut any wires or do any drilling.

I feel this eco tint is impressive in heat rejection. It is much more faster cooling than my old car which i install 4mil security tint last time. But the windscreen normal tint is really sucks, I am planning to install 75% heat rejection for wind screen in this week. Most probably the heat is from front. U can try just install better heat rejection tint for windscreen first. If u feel the same then only add a layer later on. Just to save money hehe
Lol

Just wondering, is your camera the ori-looking type or the hanging like buah rambutan type? I saw on FB, Etoni Chris' camera looks like a factory fit. But his place is too far for me.

Any of you know how much it costs to replace this cracked part? Happened while installing my reverse camera.
Looked thru the spare part price list but im unsure what is the name of this part.
Might be kind of hard to see in the pictures, but it looks worse in real life, and can be felt with fingertips

to those who just got the car.. don't over use the brake as it is still new.. let the disc and brake pad "mesra", then you will feel the grip.. let it mesra around 300-500km.. of course our brake won't feel syiok like wira / waja.. coz ours with abs.. it eliminate tyre lock..

those with woo woo woo sound, that is the cvt /  engine breaking sound, need not worry.. but if brake got duk duk duk, then better set appointment with SC to have the disc replaced or skimmed.. make sure don't drive fast also, with warped disc takut brake pad can easily sliped, and cause brake tak makan..

another thing, i don't rely on the car default brake setting when the car come out of manufacturing, when i took my car and had my disc replaced, brake still feel tak makan, then send again later in the evening to do brake bleeding (not covered under warranty, so pandai2 kowtim with them).. the brake feel totally different.. do cekidout...

anyway, just sharing my experience here..
could it be dis one?

I'm quite frustrated with my preve's alignment, done it about a month ago in CoSE, now it's running to the left again. About to travel to Penang. Should I wait till I get back, or is it OK to drive long distance with a misaligned car?

Today after filling up a full tank, my fuel gauge showed empty and the yellow fuel light blinked. Range showed --- km.
after 1 hr driving, the fuel gauge started increasing. But the range computer still shows ---.

Please advise.

are u refuelling with the engine still running? if u do, please turn-off the engine first before refuel.. the computer cannot accurately measure the fuel level when the engine is still running.. I've try this on a myvi once before.. the gauge only goes up 1 bar even i fill the tank almost full.. not dare to try this on my own preve tho.. plus the safety issue summore..

it should go back to normal when u restarted the engine, else just go to SC..

Nope, I never refuel the car with engine running. Restarted twice, range computer is still showing ---
