Voxy28 3rd Gear December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 (edited) Myself did 5 coats, about $900. Other than their claims, warranty and videos that you can get through them or on -line, can't provide you anything further. 5 coats? Wahsay... Will last you till scrap? Anyway, my BMW, never go polishing since collection and still looking good. Not really sure should I part $500 for this on QQ.... Since it will be sheltered parking throughout its life, no sun and no rain.... Btw, I had upgraded my mirrors to original auto dimming mirrors and the optics are way better than the crappy normal ones. The funny thing is that it hardly dim bec of the darken solar film and elevated height which means you hardly get glare from cars. Cost me 170 bucks.... Incl shipping and installation just for info.

Yup, Intent on using this till 10 years . Mind you I work in industrial area so air quality can be bad and I reckon the extra layers will help. Bmw paint is very good, and Nissan's cannot compare. Parking under shade will help. My civic paint was totally knackered at the end of her life and my colleague's altis was showing paint issue just 2 months new. With the pps, I find it very easy to clean with just water and wipe. The spend on the pps is saved from not using the bangala washer and I rather not they using their dirty cloths on new surfaces。what are the other mirrors , because rear view auto dim comes with the 2.0l and in my case it comes and stays on very frequently in the night.

Meemee 5th Gear December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 3M insulation works like damping material to prevent sound waves from boucing all over especially against vibrating metal of door that create more distortion. Sound will be clearer, louder without more volume cos you hear less distortion wtc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodrealm 1st Gear December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 Hi Guys! Collecting my QQ tomorrow and going for PPS at Revo. I was contemplating on the following(Vezel and Tuscon) before deciding on Qashqai 2.0. est drove the Vezel, though found the engine responsive but cabin is a little cramped. As for Tuscon I think they have priced themselves out of the competition hence didn't take it for a spin. Deciding factors for me as follows:- 1) Moonroof! 2) Secured handling and comfortable ride 3) Striking bold design 4) Cabin is refined and spacious 5) Large boot space for my son's stroller! 6) Price point 7) UK made Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve99 Neutral Newbie December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 bros, another stupid question from me: 1. engine still in running in, this means no revving, what does revving actually mean? i only know from the other bros that i shouldnt do sudden acceleration, so sudden acceleration is revving? 2. how long for running in period? 1000 km? 3. engine in running in, how should i accelerate? i've seen other qq accelerating like normal, and the plates r very recent too. so am I doing it wrong? i stepped on the gas slowly, unlike the normal way, is this correct?

Revving Yes, sudden acceleration, and keeping it in high rpm. Avoid high rpm.2.runnin g in period: manual has it as 1600 km. 3. Just drive slowly and I would keep to the left lane and not drive more than 80 km/ hr , don't engage manual shift during this period, avoid starting off on steep slope , watch your rpm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many mirrors are there ( I have only 1 with this feature- cabin rear view mirror).There is no specific number on engine rpm in relation to running in in the manual, but you want to be gentle with it during this period and avoid harshness to better ensure engine and engine train longevity.
