black koup is chio also!!

• Door design is stupid. Lock car but still able to open the door without unlocking. Lucky it is only two doors.
  
• Frameless window passenger side seems to have slight problem. Was washing car today at manual car wash and when they spray water, some little droplets came into the car at the passenger side. Will check with C&C during servicing.
  
• 1st gear revs too much before changing. Or perhaps I am prone to be heavy footed. Due to running in concerns, I still hesitate to step on it. After running in, I will give the gears some good tries.
  
• Ride is rather quiet. I am quite pleased with it.
  
• Ride is not very stiff. My previous ride is stiffer. I feel that it cushions quite comfortable in bumps and humps.
  
• Steering feedback is quite good. Heavier than what I am used to but it feels good.
  
• Alignment no issue yet.
  
• Sunroof sometimes have this tata sound.
  
• Auto headlight is cool but sometimes a little too sensitive.
  
• Ride handling is good around corners and it grips on the road. No complains on the tyres yet.
  
• IMMOBILIZER does not cut engine when key is out of car and away for extended periods. Stupid design.
  
• Driver side no glove compartment.
  
• Ipod control to my iPhone works well. Just need to sort out my songs properly in iTunes.
  
• Getting used to the new side mirrors. I think the side mirrors are quite adequate.
  
• Rear view mirrors are good. Auto dims when faced with glaring lights from behind.
  
• Boot space is GOOD!!! Finally I have some much more space!
  
• Red leather is comfortable! Plush feeling!
  
• Mood lightings is sweet!!! But acutally just another gimmick.
  
• Stock HU is pretty adequate for my usage.

Will check with C&C during servicing. i have this problem on driver side. this is quite common problem for our frameless. just rem to check before leaving the car and after entering. temp solution is wind down and up windows when u r in the car. if outside, somehow 'push' the door lower and close..
  
• Alignment no issue yet. I think mine steer to the left

I think normal rain will not be a problem, but if have high pressure jets shooting on the edge of the window then the problem comes.
  
  
• Alignment no issue yet. I think mine steer to the left Slight steering is normal. Even my previous ride steers to the left slightly.

Able to open the doors from the inside despite locking the door is a convenience feature found mainly in conti cars. Locking the doors is mainly to prevent ppl from opening from the outside.

With regards to the frameless doors not closing properly, I believe doing up the Windows Evolution mod will solve the problem. The VW Scirocco, being also frameless will have the glass window move up and down about 1 cm during opening and closing of the doors.

That to me is not a convenience. It is a safety hazard. Thankfully it has only 2 doors. For the 4 doors, this means that children behind will be able to open the doors at ease!!! THAT IS SO *#&^$@$ DANGEROUS!

Yeah man. Forgot to see your HU yesterday!!!!

ceratopia wrote:Bro, but why you need to use DMB system? It's more for KDM.

The bunch of wires with different connectors are likely for DMB, GPS, GSM, FM/AM or even TV reception.

Different models have different specifications.

If yours have 'everything', powerrrrr.
