Hi I'm the V spec owner for 1 yr, would like to share some points that are ignoring me, not sure any one here facing similar feeling like me.

1. Aircon kick in sound loud and frequent on off - No matter I max or min the speed or temp the aircon relay still on/off at same tempo...I believe others brand cars also like this but the kick in sound for me is loud..

2.Leather seat too hard - Not comfortable especially the joining sew part(Harder)

3.Gear box jerking - Low speed when switching from break to throttle, the car is like go no go that feeling.

4.Weblink - I only can turn on YouTube after reinstall the weblink, if I unplug and open again it will blank at there...Then I need to reinstall the weblink so that it can function back as normal. Is my phone problem?(Mate10 pro)

SC will always say void warranty. Even dashcam is the same, it will void warranty. However, tweeter are connecting to the base speaker which is at your door.
It's OEM tweeter, nakamichi tweeters. Speaker is like RM200 and installation is like maybe RM100+, kinda forgot.

I did. I went with City because of the rebate, android auto, service center which is nearer, aircon at passengers and interior spacing.

i see..may i know the android auto/apple carplay is it wireless one?

Both Almera and City are NOT wireless.

Almera -> Apple CarPlay only
City - Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

i see. thanks!

Just saw the city HB teaser.
more inclined towards that now

Gearbox jerking is more pronounce when engaged in Eco Mode ? Leather seat hard, not so sure my bump feels ok. Aircon loud guess it is normal so long no leak and cold. Try ALmera, it is very loud like it is going to explode.

1. Yes it sound loud but I chose to ignore it as long as the aircond is cold. Saw at facebook group got people complaint to sc and they change the relay or something and some owner said just need to check gas aircond level. If its too high,Flush the gas and topup accordingly at sc.

2. Comfortable for me. I think its firm to soft type leather.

3. Sometimes I exp jerking when the RPM is between 1k - 2k.

4. Yet to try weblink. Is it for apple?

I seldom use ECO mode, feel like not enough power and yes the jerking is severe compare to normal mode. Overall this car is good, I like the steering material and power of dream.Sound system also good especially in Spotify and weblink....Just the few points I mentioned ignoring me..


Maybe I over sensitive..I guess weblink is for android use?

A lot of improve on jerking and power when off aircon, no kick in sound as well. That's what I did during night time. Very fun to drive!

Fuel consumption is pretty good as I got 19.6km/L and I clocked 670km in full tank. First time travel long distance. Half normal mode and the other half of the journey on normal mode.

Hmm looks like the Hatchback version is coming next year. Not this year

Hi, I feel like the wiper rubber has harden and it is not clear when using it in the rain. If I want to change it on my next service at sc, how much will it cost? Or should I buy and change it myself?

Get 1 by yourself. Get the silicon version. It's easy to install.

Will silicon one has screeching sound when using the wiper?
Any brands to recommend? Thanks.

Change yourself la. Can learn along too. Its not hard but if you never do and this is your first car, maybe you a bit worried. But go google youtube la. And see see your car before you start.

Many brands. Like Bosch or PIAA. But many ppl just buy cheap ones. Cheaps one usually rm20-rm35 per pair. Got screeching or not depends on quality. I bought before some got some dont have. Usually screeching ones, just means they need more lubricants aka water before you swipe.

I personally like the ones i bought online HKS brand (maybe counterfeit dunno) but no screeching sound. Those sumo brand or sell in a car parked near petrol station better dont

Since day 1 I already changed to PIAA. Best wiper ever. Quite expensive but worth every penny.

How long does this silicon wiper last compared to the cheap one?

Probably longer than you own the car.. PIAA is the only wiper brand i'll use also.
The rest dont last as long.. my PIAA wiper on my old car has been sitting there for 4 years and still performing like day-1.

it can last until you sold off your car. 5-7 years no problem. FYI this is the cheapest piaa below RM100 models which is the refill one.

Ohh nice, do you have the link for it? Cant find the right one for this new City model. Thanks.

I need to make 2 purchases where one is 14 inches and another one is 26 inches is it?

yes 2, link.. shopee alot, lazada too i guess.. get the one that can replace the slice of silicone in the future..
