Yes you can do it during servicing or just drive in and request. No there's no website for firmware at the moment. You have to do it at the workshop

Yep. It shows. But on the motrex when u click doesn’t open the app in motrex. Suspect motrex also need update

If it shows the icon it should work.

My firmware version 161123 , works fine.

Get someone to send a watsapp to u and test out , mine have a notification tone too.

if no incoming msg , how to open right?

may I chk with all the gr8 ppl here what are my options regarding my scenario

 

locked and signed a purchase from CnC during the recent motorshow

 

SE then proceeded to bid coe and the coe result came out lower than the bid and got the tcoe

 

felt that i lugi-ed the difference (which is a few K). SE tell me there is nothing he can do. not even extra servicing credit or other freebies. 

 

perhaps my negotiation skills cmi and the SE won't budge. 

 

what are my options?

[BruisedWayne]

Hi guys, I was looking at used forte and came across a 2016 model. Was wondering if anyone knows how much is it to upgrade the infotainment system to include Apple CarPlay and reverse camera, or recommend a workshop.

Maybe you can consider pulling out of the deal, lose your deposit, go to another AD and restart the whole process.

 

OR

 

You can just let it go and look forward to getting your new ride. Live and let live

[Tiozz]

COE prices hard to predict nowadays. that's why they hv guaranteed vs non guaranteed coe prices

[D3v1LmAn69]

Bro I'm thinking of doing that too. To install another F50 at the rear. Where did u install it?

 

Installed myself. Ordered from eBay:

 

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Thinkware-F50-Dash-Cam-1080p-DVR-Recorder-16GB-SD-Card-GPS-Capable-Hardwire/282683773913?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

 

Do note the given hardwire kit, wire length not enough to stretch from driver-side fusebox to rear windscreen. I have to improvise by cutting and extending the wires.

[D3v1LmAn69]

Bloody bitch SE told me cannot record 24/7.

 

The F50 dashcam is capable of parking mode recording - it depends how the dashcam is wired up to your car. Without a hardwire kit, usually it is connected to the ACC line, means it is activated only when you start engine or switch to ACC. But once engine off, all power is cut from dashcam, so no recording.

 

If got hardwire kit, when open the driver-side fusebox will see a red and yellow wire going to existing fuses. Red is ACC; yellow is Battery. If confirm got these 2 wires yet dashcam not active(no green flashing led) even after engine off for 1min, likely imply parking mode not enabled. Take out SD card load into windows and open the "setup_global.exe" program. GUI interface appears you can enable parking mode and set various parameters such as batt voltage threshold, impact sensitivity, motion sensitivity. Once changes are made, click Save, eject SD card and reload into dashcam. After you start engine and turn off, wait a while. Dashcam should still get flashing green led indicating power obtained from battery. If wave hand infront of cam it flash faster for around 10sec indicating motion recording triggered. If kana some impact and trigger G-sensor should have a beep sound and trigger recording. Such "event" recordings are stored in folders different from normal vid recordings when driving.

If restart whole process at another AD, no guarantee the jokers there won't pull another similar stunt to our bro. 

 

I know it is painful to lose few K, but the only comforting point is: if accept the situation, bro will secure a car, don't have to go through another sales process mind-game and most importantly - not wait another few months for car.

 

Live and let live indeed.

Dude... you signed the agreement leh... the agreement is that you buy the car at this price and with a rebate if COE drops below a certain level... why do you want to renege on the deal now? Don't bother looking at the COE premium... look at the overall price... since you were happy to sign based on that price given... why quibble over something that neither you nor the SE have control over?

[thebutcher]

Ya la dont know how many months already different people come in and ask if their deal is a good deal..

 

Instead of a proper discussion about the car..
