New cars not always perfect. Mine when collected has chipping off the chrome grille and headlights has water stain inside. But all changed new under new car defects.

 

But bumper alignment out is quite bad as it is obvious to the eye compared to my issues.

 

When they do up ur bumper, make sure you check the seams whether is there paint peel when they are working on it.

 

My car get something like this when they removed the bumpers for some works. Pending to resolve by them when I do servicing.

No worries. Being said that. It is still a great looking car and full of features. I still feel proud driving it as a number of keen interest from ppl.

 

Though this car causes me many unnecessary inconvenience not because of the car but the ppl who attends to it. I thinking of the ad they convey to us that our cars handled over to them are treated like our own children. I like to give chance but there is a limit and further more still have over 9 yrs plus to drive.

Has anyone feel abit irritated that the height of passenger seat for the k3 cant be adjusted?

 

I can only adjust front and back, backrest back and forth but not the height.

 

So generally my driver's seat will be adjusted higher abit. So when friends board my car, those seated at the back will ask question like 'eh why ur chair so high' they can see an obvious height different between the passenger seat and the driver seat.

 

Just venting out, abit annoying!!

Bro, it's not a top of the line Mercs/BMW. No height adjustment for passenger seat is the norm. Also, it's strange you have to adjust your seat so high, unless you are really short. You should have about 1 hand spacing (with some space between your fingers) between your head and the roof.

Why don't you adjust your driver seat lower so that there is no need to adjust the passenger seat. Normally people will adjust the drivers seat to the lowest position. Not sure why u need to seat so high. Then u should be buying a SUV instead.

Y get annoyed by your friends comment? U r the driver u sit in your most comfortable position. Passenger seat I feel is ok for the height. Even if drive seat higher dun see what's the issue...

 

Unless u have ocd?

Hi, does anyone knows our DRL, is it on all the time? Even when headlights are on? I just noticed it. I thought that it should turn off when headlights are on.

DRL is always on. it does dim down when headlights or foglights are on, but does not turn off while the car is running.

[coolbluepica]

Thanks. Actually it doesn't look that nice to have it on together with the headlights.

I love the drl + headlight combi. Like eagle eyes when u see the reflection. Change the headlights to white maybe nicer

[Le_Dad]

Love the car, but dun like C&C service..

[poseidonlee]

talking about headlights ... I just realised that my position light does not turn on at all. I mean the position before headlight. I went to check, the bulb is physically there, however now matter what position I turn it to, it does not turn on.

Anyone has this observation? 

I will ask them this 1k svc. 

 

Another interesting thing that happen just this morning, seems like my eurostyle HU will stop playing music the moment my fuel low light turn on?! My music cut off by itself ... I notice the low fuel light has just turned on... will observe again the next tank. haha
