Hi,


Anyone own Elysion in here? Hope to exchange notes with you all. Pls drop in if you see this. Thanks.


Hi Leongts,

Just registered... owned a 2.4 05 model ...bought it just a year ago...yes, when i applied the brake at around 50 to 70...do have the slight vibration on the steering...skim the rotor & changed the pad ( using those from nissan terrano..cos same size function is as per origina)...no m,ore vibration.
Last week changed quite a numbers of items.....alternator, magnetci coil,compressor, belt , filters..... real hard to find some of the items. Now am looking for the spark plugs. Initial shows some signs but just couldn't figure where is the fault...then came the major damage..
Hope to share my "experience" with you guys....

long live Elysion smile_cool.gif Rawang

cheong,


For the spark plug, you can get cheaper price if you mail order it from online seller. There is this seller in this forum with the nick gjrforce, that is selling it quite cheap. You can look for his thread in Lowyat.net forum at StreetMart-->Automotive Garage.
Much cheaper that the price you quote BUT you still have to ask your mech to install it.

So if the price you got is including installation, it should be OK coz you don't have to run about asking for price, which translate into wasted time and fuel. The spark plugs used in Ely are supposed to be long life type and should last 100,000km as per user manual.

bro. MT88? He was here for a while but has not seen his posting for sometime already, even in SHC forum. Maybe he is busy. But he did recommend this distributor in Singapore, Thian Seng, that deals in Honda spare parts. Since you're there, might as well buy bulk as distribute to our members here...hehehehhe smile_clown.gif smile_tongue.gif Can do part time spare part selling also, how about that?



Regards.

1) is all the elysion model do not come with Cruise control?

Elysion has cruise control but only for 3litre engined models. But personally, I don't use it coz it intro higher FC, but it is god sent feature to reduce speed for those who love to speed above 110km/h coz CC only works up to 110km/h ONLY.


2) is all the elysion model do not come with 2nd row LCD for movie etc?

That is an option I think. Those from USF-HICOM don't have this feature AFAIK


3) is all the elysion model do not come with Power tailgate(boot)?

As per features list by bro. MT88, it is an optional feature.


4) is the price RM 220k reasonable for a 2008 brand new 2.4 elysion?

Don't underestimate your own nego skill. They have never said it is fixed right? Some said they still have a lot of it in their stock yard, so you know they need to clear those off and this is your advantage; they want your money, tangle the carrot in front of salesguy and make sure he work hard to earn it.


5) how is the fuel comsuption of 2.4 elysion and 3.0 elysion

Very popular question. I can't answer the 2.4 part but the 3.0 is using 8-10km/l in urban driving and may get 12-15km/l on highway. Some members get 12km/l on highway but due to adherence to 110km/h or below, I can get 14km/l or above.


6) is the 3.0 elysion aka VG engine is SOHC and V6?

Yes, "only" SOHC V6. But you goota remember it has got VCM aka cylinder deactivation. Hence the great FC mentioned above. You can't get that with an Alphard.


7) salesman told me it a totally brand new car for ely, can he be trusted? Brand new 2008 mean produced in 2008 but never use before right? millege wise how? pls advice

I have checked them out b4, and yes theirs were new, unregistered. But as with any new cars, there is some mileage clocked; to drive to showroom from stock yard, inspection, registration etc etc.


8) is there USB port in elysion? can the HDD working well? how can we transfer our mp3 inside the HDD?

I am not sure on the facelifted version that USF-Hicom is selling coz I didn't focus on its stereo when I checked it out. This feature is certainly not present in pre-facelift models aka recond.

Now, HDD in Ely mean High definition display, not the harddisk drive one may be familiar with. So, when the HDD is mentioned, it refers to the video screen mounted inside the dashboard. There is another lower end version that is mounted using a bracket but that is not the HDD model.

Ely's factory DVD player has a 20GB (maybe bigger size in facelifted models) hardisk in it to store music CDs. I have not tried copying MP3s in to it.

A few of us is using another method to play MP3s. Some use CF-PC-Card (aka PCMCIA Type II), I use SD-PCCard and the manual says one can used CD-R with MP3s too.


Really hope can get answer from all the ely owner here... thanks in advance! No problem....hope you can join us soon.

Regards
Travies

Firstly, thanks bro leongts for the kind reply.


after reading from page 1 to page 14, i find out that 3.0 v6 with vcm engine is a godlike engine. Anyone know the price of 2008 3.0 elysion that usf-hicom is selling? i was told by usf 2.4 cc is RM 220, so wat about VG?

can anyone share if u guys have done rear passenger LCD? picture will be good as im looking a decent 1 not those china making 1.

Hi Travies,

I have installed a LCD in the center for the back passenger, using the original DVD player...dashboard & the rear LCD working well. what is power tailgate?.

Hi Leongst,

I bought the spark plugs (NGK) from spore..sgd22/pc installed free by my new found mechanic...
The original one is Denso but I got the combatible ist between Bosch,Denso & NGKYa, the saleman told me that also..life span is from 80 to 100k. .
Just today I got another problem, my right side mirror KO...dismantle it and found that the gear bracket was "snap" guess someone has "push" it by force... now permanently screwed up. The power to it unplug & I got "SMART" word lite up on the dashboard is it cos by the disconnected power to the side mirror?Left side still working ok. Got one 2nd in kl but got 9 wires ..mine has 11 wires. will need to source in spore next week. Am back home till the weekend now.
Getting bulk spare parts in spore ?..no problem bro.just let me know the part number & I will check out the availabilty & cost.

cheers.
