What GPS you using? I'm planning on N82, and install Garmin mobile on it..But the update can we do ourselves?
*
I'm using Garmin Nuvi 250w. Cost me RM1.15k.

QUOTE(Chester @ Jun 14 2008, 10:59 PM)
my friend using GPS says not accurate.. it can bring you to your destination but seems like its bringing you via the longer route, which need to pay toll too.. sweat.gif

and i never seen a CPS yet on the road, saw once in showroom only laugh.gif
*
You need to change the navigation setting, either 'fastest route' (use highway as much as possible) or shortest route. The problem arise as the software are programmed with speed limit (highway:110km/h, and trunk road:80km/h). But as we drove 110km/h on trunk road also ( tongue.gif ) we will feel its not accurate. brows.gif And yu can alsoset the avoidance (e.g.:toll roads).

Went to Brothers in Ipoh and they quoted me
a Kenwood Car Navi system...... for 5k!!!
the guy said those 1k below ones are no good....
*
Kenwood Multimedia touch screen will cost you about RM3k, the GPS module is about RM1.5k.

QUOTE(squareballs @ Jun 14 2008, 11:15 PM)
5K you can buy a notebook..
My dad using garmin 200..Very accurate i can say and it choose the fastest route..
I'm looking for a phone with GPS, easier no need carry 2 things.

Phone with GPS will charge you everytime you use the GPS. Make sure you subscribe to unlimited data package plan.

Bro Sephiroth, how's your car navi system? Good? I'm thinking of getting one too... the Garmin 200? I got lobang, can get one for about 500. Worth it ah?
*
For RM 500, i think its worth it. Mine is Garmin 250w. Really helpful especially at those multi layer flyover junction as its tell you to keep driving left (or right) to go to your destination.

No idea, whichever is the best. As u might have noticed, i have been having this sound problem with the front left fender region of my Waja. It was fixed temporarily by knocking it tight by the ppl at the service centre. But after a week, it was back. I was thinking it might be due to prolonged chassis flex. So, maybe by adding the strut bar, it might reduce the chances of the place making noise again in the future? can ah?!
*
Thats make sense. But I think adding an undercarriage bar will have more significant effect in reducing chassis flex, and it will also protect your oil sump. My friend's Waja Campro oil sump cracked after hitting a bump.

What Is oil sump? I've also heard that older gen2(early batch) got this problem where proton rectified it by relocating the oil sump. btw, the latest waja also got this problem? need to move it?
*
The part at the bottom of the engine, some kind of white alloy containers. Mechanics will open the nut there to drain your engine oil.

In the previous Waja Campro, the oil sump nut is located in the front part, thus easier to cracked when hitting a bump. This nut has been relocated in the CPS version, but donno relocated to where... laugh.gif

Agreed. They also offer the most variety of strut bar. But I like Zenden aluminum colored finishing compared to dull Ultra Racing. brows.gif

When I send my car for service, the mech jack up my car. I saw him open something (maybe at the bottom of engine part) and then oil came out. I assume the thing is the oil sump unsure.gif

for cps, any possiibilities to have a cracked oil sump? hmm.gif
*
I think that the oil sump itself is durable enough. But the main problem with the previous Campro is that the nut is located at the front. The cracking can occurred at that part if it is hit hard enough.

Once you increase the wheelbase, it will effect the handling.

1.8 is using renault engine and drive by wire tech or some thing like that. and trust me the reason why its cheaper is very much valid. its a problematic model due to the engine. if u like mentaining it then ok la..but better get the mitsu or campro's

QUOTE(zenwarlord @ Jul 28 2008, 10:05 PM)
lots of unnecessary problem with the engine this is what i heard. Why not u try to scroll in the autoworld for waja thread for some feedback. FC is confirm higher. if u like, get the 1.6 mits will be good enough and if i were u i'm getting it from auction house.
*
One of my friend uses 1.8 Waja since the day its launch until today. Still works fine. Just have to service at workshop that familiar with conti engine. The part are expensive compared to Mitsu, but last longer (maybe due to no non-ori part) and almost no halfcut parts for the engine.

the WPC forum... last time i saw someone selling a brand new steering wheel for waja enhanced, leather wrapped with airbag for rm450. quite expensive but worth it if you keep in mind that the airbag is not yet blown... wink.gif

But you need to have airbag controller + sensor for it to works. If not, the airbags is worthless. laugh.gif

why dun u only go wrap leather?only steering cost you RM400.
if me i think better just wrap if not then change to MOMO steering lo

Momo is expensive. Better get it wrapped with leather. Got nice feeling when holding it.

Does anyone notice that CPS Waja got smaller steering than older Waja. My friend (he has 4G18 Waja) drove my car and says my steering is smaller, sportier. whistling.gif
