I did mine at Imperial. Today during rain, the water just roll away.

Remove bird shit also easy, just splash water and wipe away. Service good.

No hidden cost.

Mine is first batch. so interior car seat is off white...

 

Wow, SE quote me S$2000 to replace the 7" HU with 5 years warranty.

So damn expansive isn't?

 

Think JB android HU with Wifi only about S$730..

At the time of booking, there are 2 colours of choice only. Brown + Black (2 tones) and Black only.

 

Brown + Black are limited to certain K3 color.

 

And Yes, this is how it actually looks like from factory.

Nowadays seems like only luxury or expensive cars interior have such brown colour. So not bad that k3 offered such colour. Although personally i still prefer a black interior.

Look for Imperial in internet. I paid 380 and should last for 9 months.

There are some cheap, but they want you to come back every 3 months. Add up cost become 1k plus a year. Good luck.

Well,if you think the GPS not important[anyway most smartphones got Google Maps which is better],maybe you can ask agent to change back to those stardard HU from factory & try it out..

As I will be collecting my K3 in about a month, i would like to use the KNN air filter. Can anyone confirm the model?

 

Does it look like this?

Hey folks, has any of you gotten the above filter? I checked the filter from the showroom and the shape is correct.

Wo... Bro, drive safe. Talking about driving on the road today, at ubi after collecting my car from servicing, that stupid driving instructor uncle honk me for nothing while instructing his student. bad example for the new learners....

 

I did not really measure the FC. On the display is 7.8l/100km though... I'll measure next time I pump fully my car :)

How do I make out the FC reading of 7.8l/100km? How many km per litre is that.. Sorry my maths is terrible..

Currently my reading is 10l/100km..

Which pps you're getting? Autobacs has a wide selection of horns on display.. You can test them too..

Ya I think the sound of our horns can be better.. Ha.. Currently it's beep beep like the previous generation of Altis.. No feel when activated.. Hehe

Hi; for mine the power at rear is not as strong as front.but coldness wise seems pretty even as I always set around 22..So its quite cooling for all.

I found the horn damn stiff and basically u nid to like "hit" to sound it. Tot it should be sensitive enough by just using a thump to sound it...To me it is not responsive and may be dangerous in times of emergency...Any advise to improve the sensitivity?
