Re: Kizashi Paint Chip Problem !!!!

Reading this thread with interest. I am in Australia and own a AWD Sport in silver. I too was very concerned about the paint problems before I bought the car. I have now done over 9000KM and happy to say not 1 chip. The car was built in May 2010. Great car, still not sure about the variable auto gea...

Re: Taking the road of Suzuki again...

Re: KIZASHI AUSTRALIA

Had the first service (1000KM) a couple days ago and it seems they don't change the oil. The book says check levels only and the dealer (Zupps Brisbane) have not charged for any oil. Should they have changed the oil cause i thought all new vehicles first get a thinner running in oil which is replace...

We only get black interior by the way, black leather in the XLS and same black leather but with contrasting stitching in the Sport. When we first saw the standard XL Kizashi we were in ...

Re: Looking 4 feeback from owners on Kizashi questions

-- The AC is very good, its quick and even gets ducted through to the back quite well also. -- I have the AWD Sport which has the 18' wheels and they have no balance issues, and said to be lighter than the others, they look great but are a pain to clean (spokes have little room between each other fo...
