New Mazda CX-5 !
edit: go paultan dot org to read; don't know why LYN don't allow links now?

I find it interesting that their lowest end car, 2.0L is RM155K. And the design was basically same as previous model with some slight changes. How are they going to compete with CR-V or is Mazda the leading brand now in Malaysia vs Honda?
*
They consider themselves as the "premium" japanese. Look at all their car prices you'll know. Especially the puny CX-3 at that ridiculous price. I wouldn't buy any of Mazda cars, interior too cramp for me compared to equivalent competitors.

Why this car reverse camera so blur... I too get used to my old car which has very clear view.

It can be easily solve by upgrading the camera if it is not up to your standard. Should be cheap.

I did, and also wrap the headlight, fog light and both of the side mirror. Not from Honda.
If your car is in white colour, dirt may stuck on the edge of the film so it can be ugly, car wash solve the problem though, but the moment you hit the road, it get dirty again.  sweat.gif
Both of my car did at same thing, and the film is almost invisible upon darker colour.

Useful or not, the scratches at inner door handle can be wax or polish off quite easily actually. The reason why I did is because it's included in the package (I want to wrap the headlight only), so why not.
*
Hi can you share where did you do the wrap and how much it cost?

Hi,
I'm driving the TC-P model.

Last sunday night, while driving along PLUS hway, suddenly there's alarm and my car brake by itself.Ohhh..so surprised by this reaction. Don't know what cuse it brake by itself, is it because I hit pool of water? Any idea?
Thanks

This is what I'm afraid actually. Imagine if a car tailgating you behind and your car auto brake without reason and the car behind run into you.

Hello guys

Test drove the CR-V and the Tiguan over the weekend and despite the better driving experience from the VW, am currently leaning towards the Honda for its safety features and tech.

Just wondering, noted that those who have bought the car don't go for the Honda authorised tints. Any reason why?

I've used Ecotint on all my cars and have only positive things to say so am leaning towards that if I decide to get the CR-V.

Cheers

Overpriced for mid range tint.

The sound insulation for roof near C pillar not up to the standard.

When raining, the sound like sitting under atap zinc.

I agree. Looks like Honda is cutting cost on area not visible to naked eye.

Anyone using Trapo? Do you realise the back middle seat mat is curved up? Doesn't fit entirely?

all using this Trapo brand? is that any good? then I may opt to get one set myself - still waiting for my ride to be delivered  cool2.gif

Avoid trapo mat at all cost. The design of the rear seat mat doesn’t fit at all. Contacted their customer service and they shamelessly ask me to return the mat to them and bear the return cost myself. Look at the picture, it doesn’t sit on top of the original Honda mat due to design flaw.


**UPDATE 21.09.2017:

Ms Kiew from Trapo came to my office personally to exchange the rear seat mat for me. Kudos to them, they did some modification to it and now it fits snuggly. She said future production for CR-V will be based on this modified version.

Check your tire pressure first if it's road noise. I have sent mine for sound insulation treatment, reduces the noise a lot but it's not cheap.

What's the damage and which brand of sound insulation?

I went for a test drive. I felt that the  engine  noise is heard quite a bit inside. I'm waiting for my car which I had booked earlier.  Can others who drive this car give your opinion about cabin noise?

Engine noise is indeed loud and sounded rough when rev.

I think the 2 holes/pocket u referring is not same height/level as the middle therefore it will be weird if the trapo back is one piece. I got the OEM cargo tray where it comes with the tray for the 2 pocket but it has to be cut away as it comes in 1 full piece. If not wrong, HM original tray doesnt not cover the 2 hole/pocket as well.
*
Haha. I'm confused. What holes/pocket are you guys talking about?
