The dealership mentioned today that applying a film on the front windshield could affect the ES system. Is that true? What would be the impact if the front windshield isn't tinted?

I want to ask everyone about the quality of the 600LT. I'm really worried about having to take it to the repair shop frequently. Also, is it true that the front windshield cracks easily?

It seems like your car's brake pedal is hard to press in the morning when starting the engine, but it becomes lighter after the engine is on. This issue didn't exist before, and you're wondering if it's due to a vacuum pump leak. The dealership mentioned it doesn't affect driving. What should you do?

I'm an owner of a 2012 XV and haven't really been to the dealership much. A few days ago, I went to get a small part replaced, and the manager mentioned that there's a recall for this model. It requires replacing the valve springs and brake switch, but it seems too troublesome since it needs the engine to be taken out, so I didn't do it. Has anyone else gone through this? If I don't do it, will there be any impact?

Did anyone with a 2018 Subaru Legacy with Eyesight not tint the windshield because the manufacturer advised against it, saying it might affect the Eyesight system? I'm considering tinting now and want to know if anyone has done it and if it affected the Eyesight system.

I just got the 2021 luxury version of the GV80. I'm wondering if I need to apply a front windshield film and window film. Also, for a dash cam, which type can be hidden without needing wiring? Looking for some expert advice.

Have you guys applied tinting film yet? Where did you get it done? I'm so confused.

I have a couple of minor issues with my Touareg 3.0, wondering if anyone else has experienced the same: 1) After refilling the windshield washer fluid, it leaks onto the ground. The mechanic suggested that it might be a crack in the connecting hose, causing the fluid to spill out. It doesn't affect usage. 2) Occasionally, when driving at low speeds in traffic, there's a slight squeaking sound when turning the steering wheel. It doesn't happen all the time and doesn't seem to have much impact.

Today, I saw a Land Rover Defender and thought it looked really cool. I chatted with the owner for a bit and mentioned that it looks similar to the Tank 300. The owner said that this car could buy 20 Tank 300s. Is that true?

I had been browsing car websites for a while and looked at models like Jetour. When the compact version of the Sportage was released, I was really drawn to its bold design—but once they announced the price, I knew it was out of my budget. So I went back to looking at cars like the Jetta VS5 and BinYue. I wasn’t in a hurry because I was using a friend’s car, but when he moved to another emirate, I had no choice but to buy my own. I consulted with my family and started visiting dealerships. I was planning to go with the Jetta, but at the dealership, I saw the compact Sportage in front of me, tried it out, and really liked it. It felt right, and the price fit my budget, so I went ahead and decided to buy it. After some back-and-forth with the salesman, we closed the deal. I'm 173 cm tall, and the front seat is spacious—I have good headroom—and the back is very comfortable. You can stretch your legs easily, and the trunk space is more than enough. Honestly, it exceeded my expectations. Sound insulation, though, is an issue! Tire noise is noticeable, and if you open the windows, you get a strong wind sound. Even the engine gets loud when you press the gas. Some people mentioned water leaks or strange noises, but I haven’t experienced that so far. I did get a bit of fog inside one of the headlights. I haven’t driven it much yet, but the company gave me six free services over three years, plus a AED 500 workshop voucher. The car has a 2.0L engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission—it’s been smooth and hassle-free so far. The power is enough for me. In sport mode, it responds quickly and drives smoothly. Of course, everyone dreams of a V8, but I like driving calmly—I’m not the type to race off at traffic lights. As for fuel consumption, it’s still too early to judge—I’ve only done about 100 km. The average so far is 10L/100km, and the best I got was 8.1. Some say they’ve managed 5.9, but realistically I think around 7 is more typical. There’s no such thing as a perfect car—just pick what you like and can live with. If the design and features work for you and the price fits your budget, go for it. The most important thing is that you’re comfortable with your choice.
