40k should be still okay but if you want, you can even do it at 20k. As per what others have shared in last page, it's not easy to change the ATF oil as it's a sealed transmission. Easiest way is to drain and refill.

Well there have been argument whether i-Stop actually weakens the battery or not, so far there's proof and facts from both sides. You can believe what you want to believe but i-Stop annoys the hell out of me so no no for me.

Haven't use any of them. I'm using Mother's VLR for interior. For exterior I only use neutral shampoo like Meguair NXT.

Already noticed kena stone chip and water mark when I wash my car. Just have to live with it

Well at least at far can't really see the stone chip. Gonna send it for polish and wax next month maybe.

Don't really feel like paying 1.3k for that upgrade. I can do that with just 400 by doing the serial hack and install AA/CP via thumb drive. The only cons is that the hub port - meaning no faster USB charging but I can live with it.

Alternatively can get the Android Interface - can watch movie and add on more stuffs.

Can always switch out the HU if rosak and no warranty. Still better than paying 1.3k

AA is super useful since Waze is very important when driving in KL. Alternatively use phone holder but it just doesn't look as graceful as having AA. Imagine a beautiful ballet dancer wearing slippers. Can work but doesn't look graceful.

But agree on the part of 1.3k being too much which should have been given as a standard for all cars. Definitely won't go for this option. If I were to fork out that much, I'll go for Android Interface instead.

Don' think it'll go cheaper given how Bermaz operates here in Malaysia. We can only seek alternative if we want it or else just live without it.

Sigh flying stone cracks the front windscreen. It's about 10cm long. Have to go Dr mirror tomorrow.

Have been using 97 most of the time. I do switched to 95 from time to time cause wallet bleeding The difference between both is very noticeable so I'll try to stick with 97 if possible. Now with 97 priced at 2.50, there's more reason to go for it.

Yea man, I gave up cleaning the car since it's rainy season now. Wash now, rain later...effort wasted sigh...

No windscreen insurance. The SA didn't ask me to get it that time and I forgot to ask him to add on as well. Temporary just fixed the crack first. Cost about 250 bucks. Next year when renew road tax + insurance will get windscreen insurance and then claim it

Added.

My FC is pretty similar with yours. I am a heavy footer and I usually drive 140-180 on highways so the FC is not gonna be pretty

I used Sport Mode to overtake cars or on mountain roads like Genting or Cameron Works pretty good but it's noisy as hell as it ramps the RPM like mad hahahaha

LOL!!

To be honest 97 doesn't give better mileage. But it gives better power and smoother drive

I too switched from Myvi to CX-5. Imagine the big jump in the monthly payment. CX-5 is like tier 2 upgrade. Honda city or vios are tier 3 upgrade. It falls below 100k but it gives you neither the hngghh feeling when driving nor the feeling when showing off to your friends, families and colleagues. Not to mention the stuffs you get, the driving experience and feeling, the raw power and shits you get from the car...it simply worth the money.

Tier 1 upgrade would be those continental cars like BMW 320i but those are even more costly. Therefore, GLS's price is between all of them. More expensive than tier 3 upgrades, cheaper than tier 1 upgrade but with rich features. If you were to choose the GL spec, then it's stripped off the features and you won't feel good (it's subjective though!)

There are 2 kinds of people. One that goes all the way or one that goes bare minimum - both must be within the affordability la

So since you are already planning an upgrade, why not pick one that you'll like it and keep for a long time? Unless you plan to upgrade again some time in future like 5 years then probably not wise to go so high up.

Still, it must be within your financial capability. If you are capable, don't see why not go for it. Life is short, you only live once. Buy a car that you don't feel hnngghhh really does not motivates you to drive it daily. If you think that a car is just to ferry people, don't need to tukar laaaaa, Myvi can do it well. Cheap spare parts, cheap maintenance, good FC and tak sakit hati when kena calar XD

Did you feel the brake power is insufficient? I tried few emergency brakes before and I don't think the car can stop on time. I press the brake til the max limit and it doesn't feel like it's gonna stop fast.

One reason could be being SUV and at high speed so the inertia is very strong as compared to my old Myvi. My old Myvi event though at high speed but when I stepped on the brake I felt it can stop on time.

I jammed mine at 120 but brake is so soft I think it won't be able to stop on time.

Will it help? What's the brake kit? Brake pad and brake disc? Will certainly consider that if it helps a lot.

Ya man. Given this car is for zoom zoom I was surprised to see the brake is so soft. Definitely can't brake on time if you zoom in the city. I don't tailgate people but I do zoom a lot in the city. Sometimes when the car in front does an emergency brake, I have to brake too and that time I noticed the brake is too damn soft.

Maybe will change the brake pad first. The whole brake kit is too costly

Kena test drive to know more.

Ya man that's what I had in mind but racing macam overkill.
