Sedan.

The workshop went to claim and replace with a new battery without asking. He claimed the current is weak but no notification whatsoever. Should have waited for the warning signal to appear first or at least ask me first. Now rugi 1 year already.

Hello questions to all owner, when going thru uneven road or bumps at speed above 10km/h suspension/brake any noise from the front? Not like squeaking noise but like car scrapping the road (pretty sure didn't scrap).

Secondly, when coming to complete stop or moving from a complete stop brakes would be very loud like nguuuu sound, not the screeching one.

Thirdly, electric steering adjustment, sometimes it is working sometimes it is not. Anyone facing this issue?

This is for a w205 facelifted model, barely 1.5 years and 25k km

SA said the new C Class (CBU) likely be launching in Malaysia this Sept. I have my eye on this model too. So far, had tested BMW 3 series 330i & Volvo S60. Based on interior alone, Volvo takes the cake. BMW looks dated and lack the luxury feel. Was intending to get the S60 until SA pointed out the rear seats cannot be folded down.

really? usually new launched gen models will be very tight lipped. as overseas just launced not long ago. msia would take at least close to 1 year for it to arrive.
i was estimating early next year as E class facelift already long due supposed to be refreshed and launched.

I am not a fan of CBU models! Less features and higher price! Prefer to take the second batch of CkD.

I've installed the Dashcam from hap seng. It's a decent Dashcam. Too bad it's only a front facing camera.

The only reason I've installed it was for the piece of mind ( warranty)
