if gear engaged in "3" or "2", does it mean brake by gear?? is that will make the lifetime of gearbox turn down??
i know it will more safety by enganging low gear as in karak highway long2 ago signboard, "jalan curam, gunakan gear rendah" (if i'm not mistaken la)  tongue.gif
*
by all mean, down high and slope is HIGHLY recommended to use low gear (to drag your momentum, the low gear is MEANT to me on slow unless you are doing touge, then u can try higher gear (make sure you really have the skill and your car handling can do first)....STILL brake is needed all time...

Errr...u never drive up or down to Genting before ?

Hi all, sorry to interrupt. I would like to ask a noob question.
Currently Im driving kia forte 1.6 sx 4 speed.
is it possible that i upgrade its gearbox to 6 speed with paddle shift?
*
Yes it will be VERY costly. Naza maybe charge 8-15K for 6 speed gearbox not to mentioned the other conversion...too much work.

Just DIY completed 2 left door sound proof...minor work but challenging, took about 2 hrs to complete...added a sheet of sound deadening material behind the speaker (on the door skin), now from outside can hear there is reduce of decibel....(still loud), but inside the bass is more solid...

Anyone using simota or k&n drop in filter?
Which one better?
Is it really help on performance and fc?
Any side effect?

Appreciate your advice...

Better pickup same time slight increase of FC but after sometime you will feel nothing once you used to it.

hi, anyone can share how to upgrade the current gps to papago? thx
*
I won't call it upgrade instead alternative map software for your HU but bear in mind when you use Papago your HU will be lag if you trying to run other apps (e.g radio)

QUOTE(bennedict82 @ Mar 24 2013, 02:39 PM)
It is simple. Create a ppg folder in your MicroSD card. Copy all the software including the exe into ppg.

Then goto HU, choose App and there is an option for you to select new shortcut point to ppg exe instead of SpeedNavi.
*
Please don't give wrong information if you not sure how to do.

QUOTE(zerohunter @ Mar 24 2013, 02:45 PM)
where to get the software? thx
*
Like epo said, check back the old thread...

QUOTE(bennedict82 @ Mar 24 2013, 02:51 PM)
You need to buy. Our HU is windows version. You need to get version X8.5 if not mistaken. I am using this.

You may find from internet, but it is illegal to discuss here.
*
Again, don't confuse ppl. Our HU is running on Windows CE (to be precise), by telling ppl Windows (commonly ppl will understand it as Windows XP, 7 or 8 etc) sigh...

It is simple to install Papago on our HU.
First, you have to make sure get the Papago Software version x8.5 with resolution 800x480 (Windows CE). Then you need to create a folder for example "papago x8.5" on your HU SDCard.  Extract the content to the folder.
Second, go to your HU click on >> Apps >> Options. You will see the screen allows you to change Skin, Display, Datetime. At the below you will see the 'Navigator Path'. Just change it and point to navi.exe file under papago folder. For Example:
\Storage Card\papago x8.5\navi.exe

Done!
*
well done. At last you finally posted something which benefit others in clear and precise english thumbup.gif

I'm still in the hunt for Car Coating as well..
So far, I've narrowed down to 3 prospective methods/packages:

1) PPS Coating @ Jalan Horsepower, Sunway - RM 700++ (if am not wrong on the pricing)
2) Sierra Glow @ SS15(?) - RM 650++ (again if am not wrong)
3) Kuzig Glanz @ Ara Damansara - RM 570 (inclusive of glass coating)

Am leaning more towards PPS now.. hmm.gif
*
DIY the best. Cost mostly less than Rm300. Optimum coating expect at least double the above price IF you let ppl do.

Got my 2.0sx almost 2 weeks ago, and realize that the rattling issue on my passenger dashboard is rather annoying....Brand new car, with rattling noise, are you kidding me? dont get me wrong..i luv my ride. but the noise, is such a turn off  sad.gif
i thought the 2013 batch should've rectified this issue already..
Can the SC fix this ? or anyone had overcome it?
Appreciate your kind sharing  notworthy.gif

Its a never ending story...most the time the rattling sound only happen on night/low temp time as the plastic/rubber 'shrink'

how much is it? what u think about the coating?
*
Do bear in mind NO coating in the world is better than your stock clear coat, some will fade within few month, some will gone after a year.....and most importantly you need to PUT ALOT more CARE in taking care of it. Can't simply send to bawah pokok for car wash, even wash/dry also have to be very careful etc...

Alot of ppl (not sure how many time i have repeated this in how many forum) still think that once they paid for the coating (be it Rm300 or Rm1500) coating, thier paintwork will be invicible.....sorry to say there is no such thing...

Hope this help for those that didn't know still..
