QUOTE(knwong @ Aug 24 2016, 02:41 PM) Avoid driving behind lorries. When driving North South Highway, I felt those sticky stain or dead bugs that stick to your car surface is more annoying to clean. Have to use tooth pick to pick out dead bugs from edges sometime. LOL +1 to that! Avoid driving at evening or night fall. Those bugs i tell you.....

QUOTE(pigin @ Aug 24 2016, 02:26 PM) its okay.. its prolly cuz their cars used to be able to cucuk 9th gen but now 10th gen TC leaves them in a trail of dust. they beh song so come here complain la. QUOTE(sean2823 @ Aug 24 2016, 02:29 PM) Just had a chance traveling to KL today, the car still below 1000km, not thinking of pushing too much, and yet the car is very steady at 150km per hr, rpm still below 3000, feel like 120 at my old Persona, with even quieter cabin with minimum engine roar. It is hard to drive with official speed limit as too tempted to push more. LOL, I wonder what speed for you is too much.. Haha But l understand the feeling.. thats why cruise control is kinda useful - set at 110kph n let it do its work.. This post has been edited by dirtrun: Aug 24 2016, 02:51 PM

QUOTE(SackBoy @ Aug 24 2016, 02:37 PM) Plus North South highway? As the car is still new don't go too fast in highway, not because of break-in period but you don't want to get stone-chips on your brand new car, especially travelling in north south highway. Yes, North South, this morning a bit rush, will follow speed limit when back. Cheers!

I tried cruise set to 120, it is simple and convenient. It only cancel with break only, right? When press on gas, the speed still remain.

Yes, i tried paddle accelerate doesn't affect on cruise.

For bugs, don't wait a long time to wash em out. Need to wash them off a.s.a.p. The same thing applies for bird crap. Normally for bird crap, I just use unscented wet wipes to wipe them off - coz most of 'em will be dry by the time I attempt to wipe it off. Bugs - I normally wash my car after a long drive on the highway, so they'll wash out

My old car I didn't unwrap plastic (on some parts) for 4 years my monitor's plastic has been there for 7 years  Under warm weather the plastic is harmful. Cancerous when inhale. No joke
