LoL... Waja auto can clock below 3k rpm @ 125km/h??? My manual waja can't get that figure, 125km/h at least over 3k for sure. Between, I could merely hear some noise from my tyre... Inside the cabinet when running.. Sound like something else turning except for tyre... My vibration never fixed after I do balancing for my wheel. And the car seems like going left or right sometimes... Especially when braking, it will goes either left or right depend on the car "mood"... Problem mentioned above not serious... Actually , wheel balancing already helped much in reducing the vibration of the steering. Maybe i should say it this way, Reduce from 80% vibration to 20% vibration. Solution from all senior members here?

i think i have that problem also....but i go tyre shop and change a new tyre then do alignment then everything goes well...i heard that it's the tyre already expired....u may try that out...like my car both 4 tyres all expired and i change only 1 the vibration very huge then change both front tyre d....better but the steering still a bit slanting to the left...so wait wheni change the 2 more at the back hopefully it will be fine...hehe

Insurance should be less than 1k. So your processing fee (roadtax, name transfer, loan arrangement) cost around 2k?! That is expensive! What else did you pay?

Obviously, vibration is cause by moving part, any part that move can be the cause of vibration. Leave your car in free/neutral gear, then start revving from idling to, say 5-6k rpm, very slowly. Then note the vibration on your steering. Some slight vibration is normal for >4 years waja, usually more noticable around 2.5-3k, a sign of wear and tear. Something I notice when I was scouting for 2nd Waja some time ago. smile.gif
However, if your steering vibrates terribly at all rpm, (worst case, vibrate at idling), confirm engine mounting already.

But, if the vibration is acceptable/normal in neutral gear, and only vibrate when driving, then it can be due to tyre balancing, and etc... Try post your observation here, some sifu may able to help. smile.gif
rpm 3.5k already 130km/h sweat.gif 115km/h rpm should be 3k already le.. Or you using auto?
Anyone know where to tune engine with modified extractor?

my insurance is more than 1k....i actually also dunno what i pay...i very blur...wait tonite go back i come post the list of thing he charged me..haha...hopefully my experience can bring joy to other ppl so that they won't get cheat as like me anymore...

erm...my car no more vibration d...is just the steering will turn slightly to 1 side...n since my back tyre both expired d...so i assume them as the tyre problem wait i change tyre d...if the situation din change then will need help d...hehe...but hor...dunno y...i drive everywhere it seems very noisy sound dunno from tyre or where....u can hear smth like ppl push trolley then when trolley move u can hear the friction of the floor n the wheel...
