Normally at which gear you use the most? cos i'm going uphill soon.

2nd and 3rd for hill climb.
When flat roads, shift back to D.

Max 4K rpm, never exceed that despite the 1K service done.

hey guys,

heading north this weekend, so mileage could end up well beyond 1000km when we return to KL. Is this okay for the 1000km service check?

Yeah

Yes, thats the one call from Cyber Clean..stick stick not wipe wipe..

Lol...hair line scratches

Hmm...I drove Sport mode once and i got addicted to it.. not yet trying that while going uphill.

No problem la.

Make sure you make an appointment for your 1K service.

Appointment? What's appointment those who gets their servicing done at sg besi knows

first come first serve ?

anyone book GL soul red and get your car? book mine in early June but SA said not much production for GL.

ask me to change to GLS soul red for higher chance

Just go for GLS then. no regrets i tell you.

I don’t know. Care to share ?

Take GLS. No regrets

GL too kosong. If you have budget concern just increase to 9yrs for that GLS..

Ya man go for GLS.

Ok finally solve the weird knocking sound from behind. Turns out to be the damn tyre inflation box given by the dealer. Now it feels so good when going over bumper.

Yesterday night was driving at night and I finally can appreciate how good the handling is for CX-5. It is especially good when driving fast and going around corners. It gives me the feeling that I can control the car and the car will be always under control (please try that with other cars and you'll know what I am saying here)

Driving slow or stuck in traffic jam then the feeling is meh since the car vibrates a lot and the engine noise is louder than any other car (try switching off the radio and you can definitely hear the noise).

This is definitely a zoom zoom car.

Wanna test your cornering?

From Karak highway towards KL, turn into Genting Sempah, there's a roundabout (big). Take 3o clock, uphill a short while and there's a small road where you can goto KL which will skip the toll.
The road is very tiny and lot's of corner. Eventually you will pass by an kampung orang asli and will connect to Batu Caves.

Don't try it on night time.

Well I am not that extreme until purposely go there and test cornering

It's fine. Just do as suggested. Give your preferred SC a call and book ahead. Explain the situation so they are aware. Won't be any issues with warranty.

I know that feels exactly. My concerns become about road conditions, poor drivers and speed traps.

Challenge accepted...

Just came back from Kuantan yesterday. After reaching Genting sempah, I notice alot car flash me when I try to corner at about 90-110 kmh speed. i already can feel alot body roll and my passenger already like semi-screaming. Lol. 2 persons in that ride. Those car that flashed and overtook me were like Accord, x5 and even inspira that can corner as the high speed >110km/hr. I need to reduce the speed back to 70-90kmh to gain back comfort. Is that normal or I am still not get use to the karak highway?

Gohtong jaya?

You can use waze to guide you to Hospital Orang asli gombak. Then from hospital orang asli gombak u waze again to Genting Sempah.

You can use Google Satellite to have a look on the road condition...
