You don't need to change the gear mode to M to use the paddle shifter. The moment you use the paddle shifter, it'll shift the gear mode to M. I watched the product demonstration video from Jack Lieu before.

Nice to play with but not a necessity hahaha. You can use the gear knob to do the same thing but paddle shifter makes it easier and cooler

Alright..will play with the manual knob first..

And also the auto side mirror folding, that available in plug-n-play also?

The auto-fold module and installation cost me RM145 back in Feb/March.
It is plug-n-play module and hide inside the driver's door panel.

Yep..initially want to add on that but now I manually do it along with the i-Stop. Every time I switched on my car I'll unfold the side mirrors and disables i-Stop.

Thanks for the info, you installed from JL as well?

You manually unfold the side mirrors? or did you installed the auto-fold as well?

Lol. that i-Stop jiggle...my gf said that her boss's Mercedes with similar feature jiggle much more kaw lat..

Manually as in I press the button in the car to unfold/fold the side mirrors.

Hmm. silly me, i thought there will be no fold button for folding mirrors..just that people choose to install auto-fold is because they want it to be folded automatically...ahh...
Please forgive me...I buy this car without actually know much about it also..

May i know where is the button located?

thanks for the info. mind give me the shop name?

The button is just in front of the power windows switches, beside the window lock button. But night time very hard to find it, no light. Found quite a few stupidity in CX5.

I see. thanks!
Please list down that few stupidity in Cx5...

test drive those in the showroom la, not others.
no need, you can even use it in "D" mode.

their product is called paint protection system (PPS).
shine shield or shield shine is their name, cannot remember the name exactly though.

yup double layer..

yes.. remove front and double for sides and back

got the warranty for all..

shitty for front.. sides okay laaa

huhu.. just do it bro..


hi everyone.. been quite busy for a while. so got my raytech tint for front, removed the skytint for front. double tint for sides and back. warranty for all. so far okay..

like what Duckies mentioned...sometimes it doesn’t open on first attempt

and the kick sensor behaves the same as well

I think August would be too soon to be rolled out here. I wouldn't be surprised if January rolls around and we still don't have it here.

Hey, you come lah.. We TT to Porsche or Lambo store..Both at Glenmarie area only... You swipe that black card of yours for temporary charge and we vroom 8 cylinders..

Nope, no need to switch to M to use the paddles. It stays in auto and if you don't manually shift up and down, the system will revert to its normal auto operation.
I thought of installing this too. But noticing that I don't always want the mirrors in when parked all the time. Save the rotor's life too.

Same here... That istop is a pain as sometimes, I forget and just drive off. Typically when I was already in the car and switched off engine to wait for a pickup or something. But yeah, I do both in one go upon entering the car.

Lichfag detected.. I knew got Black card.. Button is located alongside other buttons for toggling windows and side mirror angle. No worries, after a couple times, muscle memory will kick in and you'll be able to reach out and press it even in the dark.. I'm able to do so for both it and istop.. Lower side of the button to fold side mirrors in and top side to fold em out.

So far I have installed few items from JL's shop.
Power boot no regret must have item for me
Auto folde side mirror good prevent my mirror from scratches and indication the car has locked.
Hood damper so so seldom open bonnet
Android interface regretted it's slow and I use waze only.
I won't spend money on sound proof, branded tinting, audio, front camera, mudf flap but might consider paddle shifter.

Hey, don't think you replied my earlier questions regarding the SP you sell.. Yours matte? got photo of it when applied? Fingerprints & scratch marks how? major concern.

Mainly for the missus as it helps her whether the car already locked or not
It kinda helps too if park along the roadside

Glossy type. It's just like normal screen protector for mobile, anti scratch for sure. I don't have any photo yet.

How much for the coating?

I see.. Whatever makes dem happy, ultimately makes our lives easier.. .. Your car lights don't flash meh and car double beep to alert it's locked? I use the walk away auto lock and only about 2 ft away and can hear the last beep and lights flash once to indicate fully locked.

Pls upload a photo of it when applied.. Just want to be sure it's a decent fit.. Sorry, I can be quite OC about such..
