2. Intermittent malfunction of the trunk release cable. Fixed during 1k and 5k check-ups. Not experienced since then. Simple adjustments were made.
3. The 'tok' sound of the front brakes. I noticed this after my 20k check-up. I just had my 25k check-up last Wednesday. Had a bolt and rubber bushing replaced. Bolt costs 40 something, rubber bushing costs 5 something, all in all its about 100 bucks for the left and right front brakes. 2 days running so far without the 'tok' sound. But the SA warned me that this sound may come back after a week or so. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Other issues with no fix yet:
1. Front bumper. As said by Vinj, it is prone to scraping. Initially, I though it just the black flaps located in front of the wheels. But to my dismay, aside from the black flaps, my bumper has lots of scratches underneath. The good thing about it is that its not that noticeable. Just be careful when going up/down on inclines, parking on slots with wheel stoppers, etc.
2. Aircon louvers. The 2 aircon levers on the louvers (the one you use to direct the air to a certain direction), are already broken. The clips are broken thus my levers can easily fall off. The bad thing about it is that the part number is for the whole assembly which costs about 5k. I think mine was broken when the car wash boys cleaned my interior and the wiping cloth snagged into the lever. Just be extra cautious when cleaning the louvers.
I'm just saying you don't need to stick with the 50% blend. That's recommended for countries where...
