ahh.. i see i see.. ty Duckies..

waiting the cx5 till neck super long d.. haha

Ah man...imagine we accidentally stepped on dog poo and we smear the poo on that part...habis... 

Nice thread. I am getting my CX-5 this month too.

@Duckies Could you put a link to V1 at the front page? Thx.

I'm unsure. But according to the manual, the petrol variants don't have the Multi-information Display. But have an Engine Coolant Temperature Guage that shows the information.. Owners can confirm this?

i think only multi-info display able to change around. standard petrol display is fixed except ODO, Trip display selection

oh how i wish we have the option to upgrade that, but it is just close to super very unlikely

can only hope for the mid-life cycle update/facelift that Bermaz will stuff that across all models, which means need to wait longer lah

Another option is buying those after-market plug-n-play OBD II meter.
The China-made display can be had from RM13x while the more expensive Korean-made can set you back RM5xx.
The more expensive Japanese brands like Blitz, HKS etc can easily cost > 1k

I bought one from Sidek Salleh for around RM180 including installation, but you can install it yourself as it just a matter of plug-in to the OBD II port.

On my 2.2D, I set the display to show the speed, battery voltage and temperature.

Guys, after all this months of waiting...my car will be here on Wednesday.

Is there a checklist or anything i need to bear in mind before accepting the car?

I got the VIN Checker link already.

And i heard from bro Voncrane saying that, do not cruise the car at the same speed for long time right? (80km/h for 30mins)

Oh...wow...first tank until now still not finish? 

hi guys.. any of you guys done coating for your cars?

any comments for coating brands like gtechniq / g guard ?

Thanks for the advise..I first thought the coating can be water/dropping repellent..

GTechniq quoted me RM1.4k for 2 layers of lacquer coating...and my other friend told me to just wax it bi-weekly basis can already..recommended me using Meguiar's brand wax..

Plus your advise, then i will give up coating then..

Well bro, you just nailed that answer to my mind.
Although it may sound tired washing it weekly, but it is worth it...
Thank you all...

btw, I forgot to check on the VIN code yesterday when i inspecting the car..

Duckies bro, you may add me into the owner list.. Jet Black 2.0gls. Thankiu! 

See my response below.. 
Wipers juddering is most likely from dirt trapped on the blades.. Inhibiting the wiping. Many people drive, can wipe birdshit off the car immediately, but most don't bother to clean their blades.  .. Been using Rain-X on four cars for about 6 years already.. Not a single issue.. Buy original, apply properly and non-issue.. The coating will wear off by itself. Usually around the 6 months mark and gone completely in about a year.. I've even used it in a bathroom mirror.. Just cuz.. .. Okay. There's a method of applying, curing and buffing it off. Rain-X is a very popular product over the years and as such, won't be highly recommended if it wasn't. I wouldn't trust my windshields with any other repellent brand.

Yep... Have it on all 6 side windows and side mirrors..

So the "free 3 years (60K km) service" does not include the fully syn oil ya? Need to top up? What oil to they give for free and how long can that oil lasts?

Hmm..Dont know why my car came with weird rubber floor mat color...

It is like Black to grey and then slowly to white-ish color...
(Light color in the middle, while dark on the sides)

I heard you guys are talking about fully syn oil, my SA told me mine semi only..walao...my SA makan saya ke? but mine 2.0 petrol only la..

duckie

Chairman Duckie, can add me to owner group.

2.0 GLS Sonic Silver

Kamsieh

can we bring our own oil? lol

Saw FB post, someone able to activate the SCBC-R and the High Beam Control for 2.0 and 2.5 GLS at a very reasonably price. Any takers? huhu

TQVM Chairman Duckies

Did you check the tyre pressure when or after collection of your car?

I get my on Saturday. Felt the same vibration when driving. Go Petrol station check.
The tyre pressure is 350kpa++

Everybody noticed that??

In door side tyre pressure guide is 240kpa to 280kpa recommended.

Honestly the front windscreen is f*&King lame, the sides and back were not too bad IMHO.

I've been using 3M Crystalline for most of my cars previously, and of course the performance is like 100% for CR and the Skytint is around 65%.

Am thinking of not spending so much as 3M CR price has went up by a lot, and am thinking of just getting the magnetic sun shade at RM250 for 7 pieces for the time being.
