Hi guys,

I just got my 1.6EX White on Wednesday,

I realized when i drive at only 100km/hr onwards, my steering starts to vibrate already. Is this normal though? 100km/hr is nothing for a 6-speed car. :S

Please help. What should I do?

Its part of Korean technology.I have been talking about this countless times.And I can bet you its nothing to do with alignment and balancing.Its just like a Myvi,once you reach 140kmh,the whole steering vibrates and its got nothing to do alignment and balancing.Its just that their technology is not up to mark..

You dont get these kinda things in Japs biggrin.gif

our paintwork is abt the thickness of a human hair. measured in microns. on top of the colour coat, there is another clear coat, which makes the paint glow and reflective. (think of it as nail varnish)

polishing compound contains abrasives (tink of it as liquid sandpaper). so when you polish it, a certain thickness of the clearcoat will be "sanded" off and gone forever. so the car will look bling bling because the dull layer has been "sanded" off. hence, it isn't recommended to polish very frequently as the clearcoat will become thinner.

i went for some detailing workshops by swissvax and zaino last time. what i usually do is shampoo wash, followed by claying process. then wash again. completely dry the car, then do hand polish for the paint. buff off the polish. apply sealant. after curing, apply the wax.

As you can see, even if i wash my car, my car will stil remain dirty due to the small black dot (a lot) .. is it need to clear the black dot away 1st? But how?

If it's part of Korean technology that their cars vibrate above 100km/h then my Forte must have been made with non-Korean technology since I don't have this problem.

And there are plenty of Jap and Conti cars having this issue. So those cars must have been made using Korean technology?

Pls make sense when you talk la smile.gif

go for balancing and alignment.

im not sure if this helps, but look at my previous post. i had this problem too. what tyres are u using? i've been told n shown by outside mechanic that silverstone stocks for the 2011, 2012 batches have a problem with their tyre shape. try asking them to jack it up n free wheel it for u, u might notice it spins slightly off center. if thats d case, u will probably have vibrating problems no matter how much weights u add during balancing. i've used michelin & yokohamas before and after my change to a yokohama, no more vibration. of course, this might not be the case, so look into this as possible problem on ur case. btw my yokohamas are 205/55/16. if u identify this as a problem, u shud do it asap so u can get a good price on wheel trade in as its unused

just that if u have the persistent pulling to the left problem, that could be camber related. i have yet to investigate this problem although a forumer has advised me on how to proceed on this.

that means any car that vibrates at 140 is actually a korean car in disguise. it plays to the tune "Koreans in disguise" (sounds familiar? Transformers anyone?). Kevin23 is obviously an id10t so what can I say?
