He is referring to a 30 days hrs, ie. 72,000 per month. When he said" 20,000 hrs", he meant on the eigth day of the month at 8 am. This is how he got 20,000 hrs.

Olivin,
For the past 1+ week, my rear 2 door auto lock behaves perfectly. I did something but I can't explain it other than calling it black magic. It could be coincidence. Let's hope they don't go crazy again after I write this. But I know the problem might come back if I do the gas pedal reset step. It happened to me; then I went through my black magic steps again, and the problem has been away for more than 1 week now, something like 2 weeks already.

BBbbbbbllllaaaaccckkkkk MMMmmmmaaaagggiiiicccc!!!Sounded scary that our ride can respond to such supernatural "healings". I still have not figured out under what circumstances it would intermittently lock or don't lock. Care to share?
Perhaps PML should engage a Bomoh to replace RF

These guys normally send direct, like the interface. What you really need is someone to organise the purchase. IMO, this thing is an addition; not good enough. I'd be game for something which replaces the current screen we have.

Actually it happened again this morning. Yaks. Shouldn't have told you I did not have the problem for the past 2 weeks. But I think I might have accidentally engaged the reset step last night.
Don't laugh ok. It's really weird to me also. However, I consistently had that problem the 1st drive every morning (like 99%) since my CIP19 update. About 3 weeks ago, I got so agitated that I kept locking and unlocking manually for many many many times. The the problem disappeared for 3-4 days until I did a reset step. Then I went through my black magic steps again, and the problem disappeared for 2 weeks until this morning. I am doing my steps again, and will monitor.
But the problem does not disappear the 1st time I do my steps. It may appear again the next day, then I would just do it again. It has worked 2 times so far; I hope it still works this 3rd time.
I know it doesn't make sense at all. That's why I call it black magic, or maybe I have been lucky for the past 3 weeks. I am going in for the oil change in another 4000km, I probably will bug them.

the fonts looked much better.
the video playback is also noticeable faster and more brilliant.
yes, it is a little tight towards the gear shift.

PML has abandoned the sphere concept and gone back to the conventional squarish look. IMO, MB's building next door looks better. The PML's is just a rectangular block.
One of the reason quoted is the squarish one will be more space efficient. Why didn't they think about this at first, I wonder. Secondary or even upper primary maths will tell anyone that.
Ok, I am being wicked.
