considered so but to me its minor.. major if the height leveling is not flushed with body panel and the  engine cover hood.. definitely need to ask SC to fix it..

Don't mislead, misallignment is NOT the same as manufacturing defect  vmad.gif

Haha. Then we should say is workmanship problem. BTW, is that important to align it back other than aesthetic issue such as car balancing at high speed etc?

One consequences found for this misalignment is the dirt water splash inside the bonnet and cause some yellowish water mark there.

That should be normal especially when the radiator fan is operating..for sure it will suck in air & rain water during driving..i will clean my engine bay once in every 3-4 months of driving.

Any tips how to clean it? I use water with fibre cloth to clean it but the dirty mark still there after dry. After that I mix with some car shampoo but the result no much different.

Here at Alor Setar, i send my car for steam wash (no chemical or car shampoo are used) to clean the engine bay. It produce fairly good result in cleaning all the dirt. But the price is fairly high also  tongue.gif  Since that i just clean (steam wash) the engine bay once in 3-4 month & the end result is good, for me it's worth the price of RM20 for steam washing the engine bay only. Steam wash the engine is safer for the engine coz it does not use the water jet, it use steam jet/spray instead which is better..the fine & hot steam jet will easily loosen the sticky dirt from the engine bay.

Previously, i did clean it by myself using the same method as u, but the result is as what u said  tongue.gif

I think it should be normal, depend on whether the pool water is clean or dirty. If it is dirty, then mark will form after dry up.

BTW, how old is your car now?

Its normal if you wanna be 'hero' and run thru a big pool oh water, normal raining shouldn't slash like that.

It is not the matter or HERO or what, it is whether you can see it especially during night time or sometimes maybe you don't even know that the pool is in front. Even worst if the pool water consist of yellowish soil.

Anyone here experience that the rattling sound coming somewhere behind the driver seat when passing the uneven road? Like something not fit nicely or loose out. Neither from the dashboard nor seat belt.
