shecskter

Just curious, anyone tried to get after market leather seats for KX-R?, misus wants leather seats so we're looking at KX-S, but $10,000 (KXR to KXS) extra just so we can get leather seats is a tad bit expensive.

gents,

has anyone fitted a tow bar after buying the kluger? about to order a kluger but don't currently need a tow bar yet however may need one in the future. just wondering if it will cost more to get it down the track. if it does, by how much?

thanks.

I get my merlot Kluger on Friday (just getting out of a Presara, another baby due!), I think it looks great with the alloys and dark tint.

How was the Captiva experience shecskter?

Had the LX Captiva for 1 year. My wife calls it the "CRAPtiva", does that answer your question? :)

Kidding aside, I thought it was good value for money. The only problem with it and the main reason why we sold it was because it was emitting a sulphur-like odour (rotten egg). Holden knew about this defect but just didn't know how to fix it. Apart from this, it was okay. Engine also felt sluggish and uninspiring.

But my wife & I believe that the 3rd row seats are far better than the Kluger or Territory or Outlander. Captiva 3rd row seats are split folding.

Got a quote of KX-S AWD $53,660 Driveaway with metallic paint, floor mats, mud guards, rear parking sensors & tint

Is that ok?

Hi there,

In the market for KX-S kluger. Just wondering what colours are popular out there. I've ruled out black as that was the colour of my LX Captiva (which I've sold and now targeting a kluger, hope it's the right choice)

The mrs is leaning towards Glacier but I'm inclined to Tidal Blue.

Thanks

thanks for all the response so far.

looks like a little torque steer is the issue (if driven hard off the mark) and maybe front wheel spin when it's slippery.

which brings me to ask...

With the AWD....

What's the power split between front and rear wheels?, is it 50 50?

Does it detect wheel spin and correct accordingly?, will it transfer more power to a wheel that has more traction when a wheel spin is detected?

I consider $4,500 difference a lot of money, but if it makes kluger a safer vehicle to drive then maybe it's worth it.

At the moment, I don't think I'll be doing any off-roading, kids are still to small but perhaps in the later years.

Hi,

New here, seriously thinking about the kluger KX-S. Only thing unsure of is whether to get the 2WD or AWD. So a few questions if you don't mind.

Is the AWD worth the extra cost?

Is it all wheel drive al the time, or is it on-demand and runs on front-wheel drive most of the time?

Is AWD lockable? (like the nissan xtrail)

Does the AWD burn use more petrol?

Like the idea of AWD but would like to know if it worths the extra money

Thanks
