[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 383389, member: 4527"] Wah... how come so many reference to astroboy le? Famous/popular fella ka?! :eek: :24: 320i SE model was long gone before 2008. At the beginning, they had baseline and SE. The SE comes loaded with features like rear window screen, rear door screen, front PDC, fully automated seat, rear reading lights, 17" wheels and a host of other features, some are missing from my 2007 baseline model. During my time, 2007/2008, they had Highline model which comes with rear Blackline taillights, different rims, wood paneling. So I'm not sure which variant is yours. Is yours the last batch of the pre-LCI model that comes with 156hp? Mine is 150hp.. :( 1. Fuel mileage: my Highway FC is worst than my City FC.. :p At above 160kph, the FC is worst than a Bukit Bintang bumper to bumper FC. For my normal office commuting using LDP at an average speed of 39kph (OBC reading), my FC is 11.9L/100km. 2. Nope, I don't wash my rims daily, that was another forummer.. :D The dust is a by-product of brake force. Normally, pads that produce more dust are more friendly to the brake disc and more "makan". Just like using rubber eraser to rub your pencil writings, but I have seen eraser that claim to be low "dust".. :D 3. Alarm? Ours no alarm. Alarm = siren = alert. Have u seen "Alarm Clock" that's no sound? :eek: We only have immobilizer to protect the car, so without the key fob, ECU will not work and no one can drive the car away. But your LV bags on the seat is exposed to smash-and-grab la.. :D Not sure if door not shut whether can active the remote to lock the doors. I know if your boot lid not shut, you can still lock the doors with the remote, thus leaving the boot opened, no siren/warning/alarm.. :eek: :stupid: 4. Refer item 3. 5. I think u r right. There's no stand alone door ajar on the dash instrument cluster like the JDM but the moment you start to move your car, it will scream at you with an beeping alert and a big warning sign will show up in the middle of your OBC display.. I have tried it with boot not shut when driving, I have tried it with handbrake forgotten to release when driving. Even when u have left with less than 80km of fuel, it will keep screaming on the OBC display as well.. very annoying! Haha!
