Dear Owners,
Anyone knows where / what sort of solution can be proposed in order to solve the noise that comes out from the engine ? It sounds like 'tak tak tak tak tak' doesn't matter you are accelerating or set to neutral. Is it the sound of timing belt ? I am currently in the mileage of total 67K ++ ... |

QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 25 2012, 12:12 PM) IAFM problem. Any idea how much does it cost ? .. Sounds like something serious to me.send to SC to either have the purge valve replaced or the whole set replaced.  |

QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 25 2012, 01:31 PM) nothing serious. engine explode only... You really scared me off ..  Joke aside, its nothing serious. What you'll experience will be torque dip in between 2,000rpm~4,000rpm which in turn will cause your FC to suffer a bit, especially in city drive. cost ah? err... the valve shld cost around rm130 while the whole IAFM set prices vary depending on SC.  does that means that the FC will be affected with this problem ? .. and you are referring to downgraded engine performance during city drive ? I guess it will cost me approx. RM500 +- for this problem .. |

QUOTE(omara86 @ May 3 2012, 03:54 PM) HA - lowered I prefer the same height with the stock absorber ..

Lemau means bounchy feeling when driving that time ? QUOTE(r3apers @ May 3 2012, 03:59 PM) hmm..seem a lot ppl recommended drop-in only kenji ask me do open pod... btw will get drop-in~!  |

QUOTE(gogoman86 @ May 4 2012, 08:42 AM) I already suffer that rattling noise after few month driving my FLX, and the SC not gonna help us. What they did, they open up the door cover and bla bla bla (said this is normal) Thanks for sharing the tip. This is what happened to my current SAGA BLM .. on the left side door always got those rattling sound esp. going through bumpy roads. ...After I got home, I open up the door cover by myself and I realise the noise came from the metal bar which link to the door opener (grey) and the lock. Refer to the photo, and I put in some sponge to eliminate those annoying noise I changed to a new door due to the accident that got me when a Honda CRV rammed towards me .. |

QUOTE(coolkwc @ May 8 2012, 05:25 PM) what is ur mileage/week? I approx. 450-500km now... Mine is approx. 3xx - 4xx KM as of to date .. Spark plug if no harm to engine, then i think i will change later, maybe @ 80k ...absorber felt stiffer now, but still OK, not bouncy, so will not change as well...My absorber is really making lots of noise when driving around bumpy roads or going through road bumps. Guess I will be changing it soon when I'm back to KL .. |
