QUOTE(world_traveler @ Nov 20 2014, 02:30 PM) Thanks for sharing, but not really understand this - The lower rubber/plate compartments are easily loosen, any photo to share? Very hard to describe. No photo to show. Once I went over a puddle of water and a rubber part from below the car just came out. The portion by the tyre, the plate from behind the lower bumper is loose. Might happened when I went over high bumpers. Just check all the fittings to ensure all is intact.

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Jan 15 2015, 02:02 PM) Go to Hin Leong, Klang. Their prices are unbeatable. I replaced my Michelin PSS with Goodyear Assy 2 in Nov last year for only RM2,950 (4 tyres, allignment, balancing, valves). The tyres were Jan 2013 tyres. But well worth the price if u ask me. More quiet than PSS for sure but in terms of performance, the PSS is unmatched. Both the PSS and Assy 2 are manufactured in Germany. I'm looking at Goodyear now too. Aiming either the Assy 2 or Directional 5. Does Assy 2 last long?

My steering wheel got some clicking sound ("tak" "tak" "tak") when I turn the wheels. When going over the bump feels like the steering wheel clicking as well. It happens after I have not driven the car for 2 weeks. Anyone faced this issue before? Is it because of the car's suspension or alignment issue?

Just settled my knocking sound on the steering wheel. Some decoupling parts spoilt, apparently a common issue. Under warranty still, so no charges for the change
