My loan has been approved. 2.57%.
Probably could get the car by December 2013.
I choose petrol instead of hybrid because
1) I believe the current Jazz's hybrid is not there yet. Have a Prius in the house.
2) Easier maintenance after 3 years warranty is over. The mechanic outside knows petrol engine.
3) Petrol got more POWARRRRRRR!!!!! on highway.
4) Prefer manual aircond control on Jazz petrol.
5) Fuel consumption not a big deal coz I only drive ~300km a week.

One think I need to think after 3 years, how to change the ICE?

How does your new car feel compare to your old Wira?
*
Comparing to my old wira.
1) A lot less engine noise and vibration. Feels like more powerful than my wira too.
2) Inside the car feel more quiet.
3) Easier to maneuver in tight parking lot. I think its due to smaller turning radius and smaller car size.
4) However the road noise and tire noise at the back seat is quiet loud.
5) Car audio system is good enough.

Congrats bro and welcome to the jazz ckd family! 2 weeks is actually fast! Where did you purchase the car? And what color?
*
Peringgit Sri Motor in old klang road.
Silver color.

I was surprise when I asked them Jazz Petrol CKD 2 weeks ago they say white and silver got stock.
Hybrid has to wait till Jan 2014.

my father also agreed on item 4.

can we do smthg about it?

I am thinking of doing some soundproofing on the back of the car, it might help.
However the cost and warranty issues worries me.

I worry taking off things like panels and chairs when car is so new will cause funny ngek ngek sound after reassembly.

actually.. .cars like myvi, kenari, jazz has the common problem because they do not have an isolated boot space where the rear seat prevents the road noise coming up from the wheel weld to enter the passenger cabin...

i think what you can do is first see if they can stick soundproofing mat onto the spare wheel weld as that place might be the source of sound to come in... the passenger cabin has carpeting to adsorb a bit of noise... the spare wheel weld is just plain naked metal...

if sticking soundproofing mat does not obstruct the placement of the spare wheel and it reduces the road noise at the rear... that might be adequate...unless you itchy handed and mess with other places...

soundproofing the entire car will not be cheap...
*
Soundproofing the whole car will take a few days if want good workmanship.
The car dash board/firewall is the hard part. Really need a sifu that is familiar with jazz to do it.
Wrongly assemble and you'll get strange noise from the dashboard.
I am the driver so the sound at the back does not concern me too much for now.

If I want to do I will do both ICE and soundproofing together.
Probably after 3 years lar.... whistling.gif

maybe can start earlier at the spare tire area as butthead suggested?  icon_idea.gif

I will put this into consideration after 5k service.
Now is time to get familiar with the car first.
I can't even open the windows now because the tint need 2 weeks to fully dry. cry.gif

First 500km, Average fuel consumption is 12.8km/L.
Can it get better after 1000km?

Yes, but you need to remove the bike's front tire.

nope.

1. that annoying sound happen when all aircond outlet are opened, or only center opened?

2. does the sound get louder when u choose blower faster?

3. is it jazz 2014?
*
Jazz 2nd gen 2013.

1) aircond will have rattling sound inside if I do this setting (power =3, blow face + leg)
2) that polistrine rubbing sound from the back of the car. *found the sound is from packaging plastic from the soap I left in the car... sweat.gif

The problem does not happen always making it very hard to troubleshoot.

PS: The audio system sucks and I have to live with it for 3 years.

Well, my previous car was a 2nd hand wira 1.5 manual. Spent 2k changing car audio 1 month after I bought it lol.
2k was quite a lot for me on car audio 10 years ago.
