Good to know the S model had all the spec I want. Now the remaining concern is the CVT GB which I always don't like.

 

yup, only the cvt gb holding me back in considering vezel..

Any comments on the original music set? Thanks

Very tempted to change but don't know anything other than want to have reverse camera and gps. Thanks!

So far your fit GB got issues? Did you go for your regular servicing, 10, 20, 30k...? The caring method is the same other than that is your normal wear and tear. Unless you like to drive hard, then different story.

As for the HU, my is 7" and how many inch to cover i have no idea sorry.

Just share my experience on cvt gearbox.. i driving latio btw.

Based on my research then.. make sure change the CORRECT type of gearbox oil at the recommanded period/mileage..

 

As CVT still not tat common in SG.. if u bring ur car to those wulu workshop.. the worker may think ur car is auto den change to auto (not CVT) oil.. it happens to my fren and now the gearbox abit crazy.. although the auto oil was flush out and replace with CVT.

 

Good luck hunting guys! I am looking at Vezel also.. but my Latio still left 3 yrs.. so can slowly wait to see if price will drop.. haha

Actually no need to be worry too much for the CVT for Vezel.. As Honda changed the start up clutch concept to normal torque converter this time..

 

As mentioned, correct type of CVT fluid must be used and changed on schedule or even earlier better.. The CVT fluid stated in owner manual is HCF-2.. When u do the 40k servicing, please make sure the workshop used this rather than CVTF.. As most of our car will be serviced by external workshop, they might not use the one specified in the manual..

 

Not sure if use CVTF got any impact, but I would just follow the owner manual..

 

And I actually quite enjoy the CVT as no jugged feeling when moving off..

Volks Auto -

 

Anyone collecting their cars (vezel or whatsoever) soon from Volks Auto?

Think earliest is Dec from some bros here.

 

At least their showroom got a few mercs, bently there...

i went to a PI (a reputable one) with no showroom at all.... LOL

I went to Volks Auto 2 months ago and they offered the best price in the market --$108K for X-Model. I didn't sign up becos the company is new (Registered Apr this year). The Sales guy is friendly and familiar with the Vezel model. If any bro gotten the car in Dec from Volks, pls share.

Another good choice is JDM in Turf club. They offered $114K for a white X-model although the website listed as $112K. Anyone ordered from JDM, can you pls share with us?

 

Thank you!

CVT very easy to maintain as long as u change the cvt oil every 20k will do. No cvt issue for my Fit for almost 5yrs and basically no problem for my Fit at all.
