Anyone changed out the main headlight bulbs to white colour type.? H7 rite...

 

Direct plug n play ? Easy to Diy change ?

 

Yup direct plug n play quite easy to change. I changed to Osram Cool Blue Intense. Not exactly very white but good enough and importantly higher output than the stock bulbs

I initially installed OSRAM bulbs but intermittently gets check bulb error.

 

Now on Phillips and no problem.

 

Got a set of HID with CANBUS but yet to install

Preferably drive smoothly for first 1k

 

More importantly don't jam brake for first few trips

 

Will have burnt smell for first few trips or so

 

Personally drove conservatively for first 5k for wearing in the engine

Went to pay down payment yesterday. Informed by SE should receive the car latest by 11 Aug.

Currently their workshop bogged down by high orders.

AG workshop already bog down by many orders since I placed my order on June 2017. Got car around 8th July.

 

They should add more headcount in their workshop!!! Still waiting for parts - rear window rubber strips...zzz

interesting to hear some makes are experiencing backlog due to increase in sale. 

 

but since total cars is controlled by number of. COE, it should be jjst distribution of mechanics among AD right? so there shoukd be workshops that are quite empty lor

Isn't the service free? Entice the buyer in with free this and that, and now you are stuck with the service if you want the warranty. They have no incentive to add more workers, unless more people buy, but if the current batch has QC issues, then they won't entice new buyers..

Catch 22 situation..

according to me SE, they are having capacity problems with the car lifts and workshop space. So increase manpower now also not much use.

Currently they are looking for a space to set-up an additional workshop in the west.

 

hope it's true.
