QUOTE(Cynox @ Mar 8 2019, 09:48 AM) Even for the last recall, they still not yet notify us when the part is available for replacement. Just send a letter saying my XV first gen is affected and they will contact me again when part available. I think almost 4-5 months passed.  call in and check with them... i'm based in SG, and received the same letter here, waited for a year and no follow up from them. called in, scheduled appointment and all is done within the same week. MI likes to drag their feet when it comes to recall.

QUOTE(frankzane @ Mar 8 2019, 02:09 PM) This is not good. It will affect Motor Image 'image'. their "image" was really bad in SG... and after gov rule that distributor cannot void warranty if customer can prove they service else where on time.. i think practically no body wanna go back to them for regular servicing.

QUOTE(Zot @ Mar 8 2019, 03:23 PM) Soon the warranty will change to servicing in authorized service center only  they've agreed to remove that requirement, if they change now, they risk losing competition and customers.. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singap...ty-void-9488024

QUOTE(taitianhin @ Apr 9 2019, 10:06 PM) Just ask when is the facelift Forester gonna be in the market... the 2019 is not a facelift model.. its a brand new model on brand new platform, despite the similar outlook with previous gen.

QUOTE(Win Win Inspiration @ Apr 13 2019, 12:29 PM) Thank you boss for sharing this. So the so called "high maintenance" of Subaru cars are purely hearsay then. high if you compare it to kancil those who complains probably never own one before..

QUOTE(Zot @ Apr 23 2019, 12:09 PM) I wonder why the part name has word flexible in it  because there is a joint in the middle that allow it to twist a little, unlike all other makes that is stiff.

QUOTE(frankzane @ Apr 25 2019, 01:53 PM) Besides Xv and Forester, this strut bar can be installed on which model? If you're talking about the bar for previous gen XV, then the bar can be shared with the 4th gen impreza GP/GJ If you're talking about the bar for latest gen XV, then its compatible with the Impreza 5th Gen(Chassis code GK/GT), but that is not available in Malaysia.

QUOTE(Dickong @ Jul 5 2019, 08:00 PM) Hi sifu when we change battery by ourself will the ecu tuning be out or go heywire.tq Worst case is the ecu will be resetted when you change the battery. Then have to drive it around for a few days for it to relearn.. may have high or low idling during that period and may not drive smooth. That's why if you change at workshop they will typically hook up a second battery during the change to prevent ecu reset.

QUOTE(frankzane @ Jul 9 2019, 02:01 PM) That's great info. Btw, how you 'parallel an external battery before removing the battery with engine off'? take another fully charged battery and hook the + on the alternator output and - on chassis.

QUOTE(Royal Malaysia Pirate @ Jul 13 2019, 09:23 AM) Just got my forester...thumbs up my SA for her service. I've checked before about forester tyre...some shop recommend 2 change the profile to 65 as wide option + cheaper than current setup 225/60/r17.... Can the forester take 65 instead hmmm.... they recommend based on the stock they have... not in your best interest. always know what you want before you go shopping or you'll get drag around like a rag doll by the sales person.

QUOTE(Zot @ Aug 15 2019, 10:41 AM) I remember that the SA said it is Sanden brand. 2-3 days checking is non-sense. Perhaps they send your car to other shop Servicing air-con with dismantling everything also can finish in less than a day if the mechanic is not attending other customers to show that he attend to that customer immediately  i think is Valeo, not sanden... brand new is likely gonna go into 4 digit if you dont mind coming into SG, then everything can be done within hours.. LOL it all depends on how much the mechanic knows about subaru. This post has been edited by kevin613: Aug 15 2019, 11:49 AM
