A sad news to share. The engine warning light came on. VSA light also. The engine shaking like crazy. Had to send back to SC. No idea what happened. Car barely 1 week old...

Fuel cap : not sure. I refuel 5 days ago. Problem happen just yesterday.
Air filter : should be no. It is brand new from showroom.

Just got the answer: faulty ECU!

Yes but no stock! Crazy!

Ya maybe I can win 4D liau.

No idea how soon they can get the replacement.

Hey the visors look nice! Where to get?

My windscreen premium quoted at 690

They managed to get the replacement part. Still haven't got by car back. HM doing a thorough investigation.

Well they still need to keep up with times and start using emails instead of fax. Not happy with the customer facing people...

After replacing new ECU, initially the car back to normal. But after few rounds of test drive, problem reoccur. SC no clue and says need to check the wiring but can take as long as 2 days to see if they can catch the culprit!

Meanwhile, complaints to HM have been fruitless as they do not want to commit on any compensations. Also no written reply given to my complaint letters.

I am very disappointed and will go public with the complaint.

Saw a black unit near glenmarie. Anyone was there today afternoon?

Some updates on my case.

HM technicians found 3 faulty parts in my car and are in process to replace them and do a total test of the car. Hopefully the problem can really be permanently resolved.

But meanwhile my demands have not yet been responded to by HM. Once I get the complete technical report, will share the details with you all!

No mention which parts but all details will be provided in a full technical report. I'll call the SC to see if they can tell me anything.

Hopefully once all fixed I'll be able to add my name to the list of owners!

Yes multiple complaint letters sent over the past 2 weeks

It was found after joint troubleshooting with technician from HM also. At least that's what I've been told.

BTW saw a white one at SS19 today lunch hour near Parkway.

Very interesting car this one. Lots of features that delight especially when unexpected, e.g. front passenger seatbelt detection

Questions about the car behavior:
1) When engine restarts from auto stop, is it supposed to be jerky or as smooth as starting from idle? And is there supposed to be a slight delay before the gear engages?
2) When coasting and braking, the car seems to jerk and I suppose this is due to regenerative braking. How to ensure the braking is smooth like conventional braking?
3) The multi info display resets to the rear seatbelt detection screen at each car restart. Any way to make the screen stick to the previous view?
4) The assist meter doesn't go very far to the right. I am using very light throttle only and no hard acceleration. Is this normal?
I'm sure there will be more questions to come so hope for good info sharing from all of you! Thanks!

Something weird after the repair: when engage in D gear, the car doesn't creep forward. At the slightest slope the car will roll backwards unless I press the gas pedal. Anyone else experiencing the same thing? I thought jazz hybrid supposed to have hill start assist function? Could it be after repair my car got problem?

Hi. I read from Insight forum also to press brake hard enough. Is this the expected behaviour?

Other than the ECU they also replaced for me entire transmission box. So I wonder is it because the box haven't warm up?

Added on June 26, 2012, 12:21 pm Thanks for the assurance bro. So CVT behaviour is different from normal AT in this aspect?

I see. Haven't learn all the things about the car. Haven't had time to read the manual also hehe. Anyway mostly my finance minister is driving the car not me

How hard we need to press brake to activate Hill Start Assist?
