Welcome to the family...another Black Samurai on the road!

Dear Bros , just collected my SX today. Overall was good and satisfied with the car. Went immediately to replace with Conti sport contact 5 tyres. The Eurostyle HU is wonderful, good sound quality, considering its stock speakers. Great gps too. Found a line along my rear spoiler , look like adhesive stains.

 

Does anyone knows why the red light on the door panel doesn't light up when door is open?

That is not a light, it is a reflector.

"Found a line along my rear spoiler , look like adhesive stains."

 

I thought I was alone. The line did look like adhesive stains and in my case, and the lines are pretty "long" and obvious along my spoiler, as my car is black.

 

I am planning to ask my SE whether they can remove the stain during my coming 1K servicing. Also realise some parts of bonnet was slightly blurish. Should have checked the car paintwork thoroughly during collection 2 weeks ago.  Any expert with similar experience and advice (other than paying to DIY...)?

Yours like more jialat than mine. Maybe can try using Resin Polish to Polish off. Autoglym is good

Hi bro I topped up $632 after trade in the stock Nexen, done at Stamford tyres. Free rotation life time as I know them very well. Seems like everyone's rear spoiler has the line. I've informed my SE and he is arranging for a polishing to be done. On top of that, the paint work sucks which is located above the rear number plate. And rear combi lamps plastic cover has a tiny hole (created by injection molding of plastics) with some wax in it.

The line on my spoiler also very long , all the way throughout. SE arranging to get it polished off. Need to get it fixed. We paid $90k not for a defective line.

I got the same issue as well and maybe worse. Visible continue patch across the whole lip under certain angles. 

This is a common cosmetic problem for Black K3??

 

3 questions on map updates... has any one done the map update for the Euro Style HU? Update to the sd card? Got any cheaper way?

 

Was told to do the update b4 end of 1st year, subsequent updates will cost S$100++ each time

Yes update to the sd card that they put a sticker seal. There was a post on self update and one of the bro done it. You may want to search for his post.
