MC5 disappointingly noisy after 2-3k km mileage. so unfit to do its segment job.  Disappointing indeed.

a FD 1.8 overtake my TC ar 140kmh..the cvt in D mode very very not so respond..

Drove both before, can say no way the 1.8 is faster than the 1.5T. Slighty slow from 0-15km/h then 1.5T smoke it all the way~

However, I bought the 1.8 sweat.gif

Yea.. The rattling noise is quite irritating, overall the car drives well just that noise kills everything..

I face similar issue, but wasn't sure was it from A-pillar or from dashboard.

I also noticed this issue. After few months then the traffic noise will seem to be much louder compare to when I just got the car. Noise of motorcycle passing by is the most obvious as previously I don't remember hearing those noise.

I think it is an issue with the rubber being under the hot sun or something.

I load tons of bassy music to my iphone... playing those songs at volume 7-8 will help 'kill' some noise

I own the TC-P, but yes, the 1.8 is easier & (slightly) cheaper to maintain compated to the Turbo engine. Every 6 months or 10,000km, go preventative maintenance.

Turbo needs to follow normal PM & Maintenance Minder for oil change - may, or may not be the same as normal PM schedule.

Latest Waze for Android Auto Beta v4.26.0.906 is out.

1.8 + CVT is smoooth like butter... u only hv to service it every 10k km, maintenance price wise maybe very slight;y cheaper than 1.5T?

when press the pedal, i personally think the 1.8 give u a slightly sharper response and then just go smoooothly~

but if you need the speed... 1.5T is one u shd go for, better fuel efficiency as well. this 1.8i get 11-12km/l (below 10k km mileage), many 1.5T driver here get better mileage

i just listen to radio and spotify and both need minimum 10
but the rear speaker will be louder than the front

Radio music doesn't provide "enough" bass to kill the noise.. haha

Din try spotify yet.. biggrin.gif

With some bass it can kill off some traffic noise.. except real loud motorcycle exhaust noise
