You guys using what engine oil weight? 30? or 40?

ada money buy car no money maintain

me GAGA FL had a very minor problem. the bootlid kenot stay open, tend to close. had to hold on to the lid using shoulder when want to put stuff inside. is it spring problem or something else. should i report it to the SC?

long time no hear?

baru yesterday I posted me losing my kidding antenna...

My colleague around my left and right absent today, feel very boring la, you guys please spam la, else i will bore until die leh...

Anyway, manual BLM will never feel smooth in slow speed, especially traffic jam and cruising @ 1st gear. Few reason contribute to this. 1st is power hungry compressor, this really drive me rage sometimes, when i just start to release the clutch, the compressor kickin, 'glok....', then my car is jerk like hell, have to quickly press the clutch and accelerate again. 2nd is the damn close ratio AK GB, torque is easy to transfer to wheel, however when torque suddenly sucked by compressor, wheels will kick back engine through GB, that why jerk again. 3rd, the damn over sensitive electronic throttle, u will never can control your engine speed @ 1.1-1.5k rpm, u can easily test out @ N, press throttle, the damn rpm either will never move or it will shoot up at least 1.7-2k rpm. If during slow speed fully disengaged the clutch, it will jerk like hell.

So my countermeasure about this:
1st case: Always open my aircon temp @ highest temp (lowest power), so the compressor kickin every 20-30s (depends on cabin temp), if feel hot, might just increase the fan blow speed.
2nd case: Curse and rage. Nola, once the car move (even 10km/h, i will shift to 2nd gear, so that the ratio is longer now, wheel kick back feeling will minimized.
3nd case: Curse and rage. Nola, no choice but have to control the clutch precise like robot. I think the clutch will wear faster if control like this way, have to always half disengaged.

So overall Saga with AK manual GB is damn in slow speed and.....

damn in high speed as well.

Dun scold me for starting today with all this shit, just sharing my thought.

my friend said, try to adjust the springs first. if cannot, it's the spring problem. i already told the problem with the SC when i went for my third service last month, but need to set appointment on weekdays.

+1. Manual GAGA is a pain to drive in traffic, not because of the clutch but because of the above.

Re-chk yr wiring,
Esp the point yu took the power feed from.
Probly not a suitable one?
Shld b fr source which is only ON when lights are ON.

tapped the right wire... but funny think is... my gauge have 3 wires... black red orange... for what i know is... black = grounding red = 12v power source orange = ignition... if the wire follows the original wiring tapping the meter will light fully even the no ignition is turned on... but after i tapped orange to power source and red to ignition, it works normal other than having small little dimmed light all the time... so i think the meter not functioning well... no warranty but got it at cheap price... so there are now 2 solution for me which is make a switch for the meter or find another meter to change...

Did the meter come with Installation Instructions?

the meter is old stock lai de... inside only got the metal thingy hose and the T-conncetor... and some screws... no installation instruction... even got also it doesn`t teach for vacuum meter one...

Re: response... Placebo! Big time! 3 year old car add ground cable to increase throttle response?! I'll be damn to buy a car!

Re: vacuum gauge, u did mentioned its a 3 wire setup. I'm guassing the rd wire is NOT ignition. setup shd be as below

+ve - ignition
-ve - ground
Extra cable - parking lamp

When u start your car, it shd be brightlight background. When front light activated, background light become dimmer, so it won't hurt your sight during night time.

Lucky me decided 2get an AT...

And yup, traffic these days no joke wan.
Very stressful 2drive in city areas nowadays!! 

dunno about the grounding cable la... that is just what i felt...

for the vacuum gauge, if according to your wire taping... the meter will have to light up 24/7 and just change the colour if i activate the front light... so cannot be right ?
