Just got my PE from our ever reliable SA Bro Derreck (dcAutoworld). Loan signed on monday, today already got the car, with freebies and fabulous discount some more! (plus his customer service is second to none). Highly recommended!

Anyway, my PE is H-Line, chiffon green. Going to learn a lot here from PE sifu here.

Thanks rclxms.gif

Just to ask PE sifoos here, previously I only drive Satria (2003) 1.3, so already used to gegar on our infamous Klang Valley bumpy roads.

Today when getting my PE, how the car normal characteristic when driving on bumpy road, it is smooth (without any movement on the car) or goyang2 a bit? Coz my PE a bit goyang2 esp on LDP just now (a bit bumpy).

First and foremost, did you check your tyre pressure. Normally cars coming from factory and stock yard put pressure at over 260. That causes bumpiness and overhardness when driving.

Release air pressure to 210 front min. (mine 235) and 190 rear min. (mine 215).

Besides that, alignment and balancing might also runs (factory adjusted setting sucks). So if release pressure still same problems, try doing those. You can do that at SC FOC before 1K but they will never tell you that. After 1K, better do it outside. IMO, outside skills better. I do it outside the moment I get my car after I realise my car runs to right when running on highway.

quite ok lah~~depends on how bumpy the road is lor~~maybe u need to check tire pressure to suit ur driving??

Thanks bros, will definately check it out, apart from normal minor issues, so far this is the best car yet i've ever drive (my x-boss 5-series is definately an exception).

And to my suprise, milege now only 174km, but FC already lowered to 9.4l/100km. Not bad for a fresh car. Hope can get 6l-ish once reaching 5k milege.

The most important thing to do is to check your tyre pressure, as mentioned by a few members here. Factory tyre pressure can break your backbone if you drive on it over a long period of time. PE's ride, handling & NVH is considered one of the best for a car under RM 60k. If you think your ride is a bit bumpy, it definitely is.

And by the way, what tyre they gave you? If it's Continental, then congrats, you just received one of the best tyre (comfort wise). Silverstone Kruizer (less noise).
Suay until cannot suay lah.. Last evening fell down on the road till my jeans koyak, scratch started from my knee down to my heel. Then after that at that very same night when I was entering my car I stepped on cat business right next to it. Now busy cleaning it up doh.gif
laugh.gif No lah.. Damn tired mah.. Later going out with chic lo.. brows.gif

unfortunately they gave me goodyear, tyre noise quite noticeable cry.gif will change to diff brand once the tyre is botak
