Hi Mavloo,

Hi Longblack,

Β 

Not too sure. I just happen to see it when I was exiting Rochor from ECP. A quick glance, I noticed that there is Limited Edition tag on the left side of the car's butt. Inside you'll have the 7 speed and it has 3 guages located at the dashboard. Appearance wise, it looks like the active package with 15 or 16" rims and low profile tires.

Β 

Understand from one PI at Ubi, this edition will set you back 80K++!

Expensive man!! But damn Chio!

Β 

Hopefully the driver reads this and can have a meet up to see the diff, man!

Β 

Cheers!

Hi BlueDevil,

Β 

Wow... may need to hunt for the car to meet...but sometime's the badge/tag is an add-on accessorries...like my house car-park got so many "TYPE-R" whether is a Honda or other brands... as for the guage should be the after-market value timer etc...

Β 

Maybe I will ask Mrs longblack to add "TURBO" on the back too [:p] ...just kidding

Β 

Cheers

Hi Bluedevil and 05,

Β 

I don,t seem to have problems activating the mirrors without turning on my engine since day 1 but dimming of the cabin lights yes but im thinking of installing a voltage stabilizer if it helps.

Β 

Longblack any news on the plate.

Hi Micro

Β 

As for me, never tried activating the Wing Mirrors while engine is off...cause I turn the key to ignition once I hope into the car.

Β 

I hv the PIVOT Voltage Stabilizer + grounding installed some 1.5 mths ago. No diff.

Β 

According to a mechanic, if the engine is running, the issue lies with alternator/bulb, and not battery. So I'm[dizzy].

Β 

If anyone manage to resolve this, kindly advise us on the remedy.

Β 

Cheers!

Hi Micro,

Β 

Agree. But before I bought my Airwave, I was introduce by 1 PI in Ubi that there is such a model. And the price is around 80K++.

Β 

Cheers.

Hi BlueD

Β 

Installed the PIVOT VS 3 days after collection. So can't give u any convincing advantages.

Β 

On the whole, VS + grounding is a good thing to have. At least for the grounding. Looking at the whole circuitry, u will notice that battery -ve point is connected to the chasis. If u hv more grounding cable connected near ignition head, ECU, alternator, aircon compressor etc.. it complete the close circuit (12V) much faster [thumbsup].

Β 

With the VS, it ensure constant Voltage throughout all your electrical component.

Β 

My first impression was that the Aircon is much cooler ..... well, very subjective right?

Β 

VERDICT : Only $160.00. No regrets!

Hi Micro

Β 

Met another Black Airwave owner near my area yesterday (non MCF member). Based on his previous experience in jump starting other cars:-

Β 

1) Jump start with engine on => the "dead engine" car did not wake up

2) Tried with Engine off + solely on car battery = > The car resurrected.

Β 

Conclusion = alternator is not everything. Was also advise by my ICE specialist to up-size my car battery to boost the overall current supply i.e. to minimise the effect when the aircon compressor cuts in.

Β 

So I waited no further, and went down to AUTOBACS today to change my 40AH Battery to 55AH (Varta Maintenance Free).

Β 

Did a test on the interior reading light (Blasting the Aircon). Seems like it has improve significantly.

Β 

Anyway, a bigger battery gives me PEACE OF MIND especially if I am caught in a massive Traffic jam.

Β 

Cheers!
