Dear Owners,
Can you please share some of your experiences so far on the BRV? So far only heard about the aircond filter issue but noted some other posts commented about the rusty exhaust pipe (and the minor cosmetic issue on missing lights from the gearbox?)
Planning to trade in my existing car with this for my wife - the usual usage for local commute and picking up the kid, guess that would be reasonable usage for BRV?
Many thanks
Air cond filter issue is actually the recirculate air vent not properly setup hence outside air coming into the cabin even with the vent in shut position. This issue is not across the board. Some encounter it while some don't.
Rusty exhaust pipe is actually the hook that secures the mid section of the exhaust system to the vehicle body to minimize vibration. The hook appears rusty. Solution: a coat of paint will fix it. This is also not across the board.
Missing light in the gearbox is actually gear position not luminated at the gear at night. But there is a gear indicator on the RPM. (arent we suppose to keep our eyes on the road? So is this a problem if the gear indicators at the gear is not luminated?)
If your intention is for local commute, to pick up and drop off your kids, this can be the perfect vehicle as there is a second air cond blower at th back, seats up to 5 at the back and it handles like a sedan car.
Hope the above suffice to address your primary concerns..
