The steering shaking is like turn 5 degree to left and then 5 degree to right. left right left right ...
I din't brake very hard so I don't think is ABS works.

It's the disc rotor uneven, just go and claim the rotor. I have this before n immediately send for claim n even the sa know it immediately when he test it.

If you get wobbling while either hard or light braking at certain speed (around 80 to 120).. it can be brake pad issue or the front brake disks. Usually, it will go away by changing the  brake pad or the front brake disk require skimming or replacement.

Brake pad wont give u vibrating problem except the disc rotor, n there is no such thing as BRAKE DISK. Actually it's brake disc in layman term, but it's call disc rotor.

Think your case may be different from the majority. Your's could truly be an OVW issue. Have a listen to these 2 sounds from youtube





Which sounds more like yours?
*
Mine the overcrank sound is the same as the second one or the bottom one. rclxub.gif

Rpm rev almost 3k also,the overcrank just like ur car start oredi but u go turn ur key again(key start car),mayb tis not the owv sound...

I have the same thinking like u, it's not the owv problem that's why i don't bother to chase after the owv part from SA.It's actually nearly 20 days they order the owv

Just now call up to ask about my OWV part n was told not yet arrive, got fed up with their delay n went straight to the SC n straight to their service manager room , told him already 3 weeks n no news n the service manager was so angry n call up the supervisor n start screwing n later was told will be here this week n i request for a spare car even, n was agree upon. U guy should request for it becos i think it's our right, then after all the complain we start to talk about the sluggishness n he agree n said this type of simple ecu remap also take so hard for them to do, even agree certain parts are so cheap skate, like the cheap plastic part. Then he sum up in conclusion n say u know i know lah.

3 weeks of waiting is really a nightmare guys. And without a car replacement it'll make it worst. Hope you can get back your car nicely done.

after change it will get better... even there is cases that the crank sound come back... but its not so frequently like what u have now. and also do u face any FC high problem or oil leaking?

things will get better if u change it... specially the crank sound.
*
Not sure it's high or not, getting 11.7l/100km for 30 town n 70 highway. again as mention there is no oil leaking, more suggestion please becos my owv part will be arriving this week.
