QUOTE(CarroTT @ Jul 6 2012, 07:33 AM) i oso feel the same, although persona looks like it good decent brakes by the look of it, but feel spongy an inadequate when driving. Probably the H line with ABS would be better Not really.. Driven PE H line before.. The main issue is due to the spongy feel of the brake pads.. The sponginess is to reduce disc wear rate.. Unlike ceramic compounds which actually causes brake disc to wear out faster, but gives better performance. QUOTE(IceBikers @ Jul 6 2012, 08:03 AM) yah it does help, but not last long Brake pedal higher i dont know..any method to adjust the brake pedal higher and adjust to press a little to brake? How does braided steel hose work and help? Braided hose does not flex like ori rubber hose will.. For example u press from 0-5, the pads are making contact with the disc, but due to the disc pushing back against the pads, the rubber brake hose have a certain degree of flex, therefore its able to expand slightly. The expansion will cause u to feel like there is no increment in braking power eventhough u press from say 6 to 7. Over time when ur car get older ( ur car is older than mine Changing to a braided hose, it has nearly close to zero expandability at all. So the brake feel will be very linear.. U wont have expandability problem over time, and the chances of braided steel hose leaking is lower than u kena Magnum.. But braided hose are expensive fyi.. The last i checked it cost around RM650 for a whole set of hose for PE. QUOTE(ThaiChilliSauce @ Jul 6 2012, 09:58 AM) I have read about this common problem on the first page, n my persona do have this knocking sound when driving on uneven surface or passing small pothole or bonggol n etc.. so im wondering if the cause of the sound is from the arm or it is the problem stated.. too bad bro.. urs is surely out of warranty by now.. no free change for u.. But u can very easily counter the problem by tying some insulation sponge onto the power steering fluid tube so prevent the metal to metal contact.Claim are FOC even for first batch persona? |

Hi,
Hope you guys still remember me. Today my luck is really bad, i got bang by a kancil. I was going straight and this girl just came out of the junction without stopping and she was speeding. Guess what, she's just form 4 without a license. I make a police report and now have to claim insurance. Any idea how to do that? I don't have other car and what are the shortcut ways or rapid methods? She bang my side door, will upload pictures tomorrow.not very bad just leap in abit. |
