Prob for the first few times when parking, don't rely entirely on the sensors. Can get off car and check the remaining distance left at the rear. Do it a few times and you should be able to gauge.

Wait until neck long long... finally today went down to do the final payment. Was told that the car is in the port, but duty not paid. Any bros have any experience how long it will take before I get the car?

Hi all, I just got my CLA recently. Sharing my joy with allimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg

 

seems like you got the 2015 model with the bigger screen. Enjoy!

[darksaint]

Congrates! Does ur comes with keyless start or ambient lightings?

[Tykl]

New Screen looks so much better unlike the older ones which has thick protruding boarders haha.

[jtang]

More importantly....it's the new steering wheel. The buttons are different & design is refreshing.

[sagy021]

Thank all, Oh yes. I asked if its the newer screen when I signed on the dotted line, however the SE said GPS is unstable for this new screen thus can't install it yet. There are no dynamic lines for the RC, said only factory fitted ones come with it. I tried pressing the return or star button for 1/2min when in reverse gear but still no lines menu appeared.

I wanted keyless but that's special indent and can only deliver after July, so didn't opt for that. The keyless start stop is strange. Still need key to unlock the door and the only difference is that the engine starts by pressing the start button instead of inserting the key. So it's not a fully keyless push start system..

It comes with Ambient lighting.

SE said use 95 RON, I m currently using Caltex RON95. Does any bro use RON 98 instead? I thought of changing to Caltex Plat 98. Any difference in pick-up?

[sagy021]

Any difference between new and old steering Jtang?

[darksaint]

I prefer the old design.

If still need key to unlock door is weird for this keyless feature...

Can choose color like s class ambient lights? That's cool.

I'm on 98. Think only feel smoother acceleration when pump vpower but also seems to burn fuel fast. Ha.

I prefer the old design.

Bro....your car looks the same as mine. Harmon Kardon unit with climatic control AC. CLA45 from a PI?

[sagy021]

Nice!

Gorgeous! Ok, waiting patiently for mine. It reached the port last Thursday, hopefully got good news within the week!

[sagy021]

Billionz you should get it by this week, what colour did u opt for? External and interior? The cream colour is nice but need to maintain a lot.

Hey sagy021, I got a white exterior, with black interior. Haha... opted for safe options internally because of the need for maintenance. I used to have cream internally, and it was really difficult to upkeep!

 

When you say ambient lighting, what is that exactly? I thought all cars have the internal light?

[sunroof180]

have a question - is using cruise control bad for the car? to be honest, I never really used cruise control till like a week ago - and I realise my fuel consumption dropped drastically! especially on the expressway, I can get close to 5.6L/100km.

If going long straight constant road with light traffic then gd to use cruise. the slopes and braking at our local expressway using cruise will use more fuel I suppose compared to self control coasting.
