Guys, after my recent servicing, apparently my auto light is not sensitive at all, even facing the afternoon sun my headlight is still on. Are you having the same issue, especially after the recent software upgrade?
I noticed the same problem too after my last software upgrade. The main difference I noticed is that it has some kind of hysterisis, ie when lamp is on, it will stay on unless the environment is significantly brighter.

Other than this difference, everything else seem to be quite normal.

nuvi360,

are you sure you still want to dump more $$$ into it?
i thought you are going to try to mount your sub and go for 6.5" first.
Until you are not happy, then you consider going further.
Moreover, you need to tune and run in your setup first, it may take a month or two for components to "run in".
If you have not tune you setup properly, even the best hardware cannot providde satisfaction.
Be patient.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You guys really cracking me up. Half a day and so many free labour offered! Damn, I should have mentioned this much earlier. keke. Two things will come out of this. 1) I will have the best and most comprehensive service offerings and 2) I will likely appear on front page of newspaper behind bars!

Service business is really hard business. You encounter all sort of people with all sort of situations and that's where the challenge lies. So far, I am enjoying my work.

I do chaffeur my customers in my E60 sometimes, shuttling them to Orchard if they didn't drive. It's just part
of the personalize service I offer to my regular clients. So, not bad ya? keke

Then again maybe not lah. Maybe just a nromal 4 door 325 or 330 will do. Don't want to overdo it. Working for free or even paying Fireplace for a job; what else do I have left?
OK, I pre-select customers for you to ferry in your M6. I have 3,000 customers in my database to shortlist. Help you max out your ride.

well, if he is willing to give it up for a godd price, of course. Rather than putting them in his garage to grow fungus.

hmm...6.5" plus a power amp and putting up the sub will improve your sound, i am sure...
Is $3k a good price for the whole set? I paid more than $7k when new and the installer told me it's worth at least $3k. If any taker, offer me an reasonable price. Else, I might consider install it in my E60 when I get itchy for mod. So far, no urge at all. ANy ideal how much it will cost for installation alone? Swift Motion quite ex for labor.

ON LEH!!! Bring them on; I'll make time!!!

I'm off to Mike tomorrow to see if he can find a single bench seat mod for my front. Then I'm off to Swift Motion to fit the latest gadgets and fill up the two rear seats so that the clients will have no excuse to ask for the back seat!!!
