QUOTE(chrislyv @ Mar 29 2012, 09:09 AM) bro, u cannot compare viva with wira.. viva is just a small town car, zippy car for u to move around town.. where else wira is more of a family sedan.. although wira is considered an aging car, its still a good car compared to its rivals!! the only way u can "slightly" improve the handling is to add in: - front strut bars - rear anti-roll bar tht's enough, more than the above its too much already. Thanks for the info  Also, which RON95 petrol is the best for Viva 1000cc auto?

New car and I ran over a pothole and busted a tyre  Went to a shop and changed it. RM 160 including balancing. Did I get ripped off? Granted it was close to 11pm when the shop was closing. Do you think my suspension system is damaged? Going to do alignment tomorrow. What should I know not to get ripped off?

QUOTE(Aurora Boreali @ Mar 29 2012, 12:00 AM) 2. The rides feel "stiff" or "hard", as in I can feel every single tiny bump or uneven surface on the road. I'm very used to the smooth rides in my old Wira. urghh i tot i am the only one, me also feel the same way until sakit hati since it always stiff and hard, so go and find cheap adj absorber since already get use to the stiff suspension  ......so now really slow when come to lubang2 and enjoy when drive in niceeeeeeee no lubang road....
