Bro like what others to consider? I think it's the +- differences from the original rim size thing? Ps going to buy my first car alot of thing dunno

You can try pm forumer rogrog, he changed to 17" for his Saga.

17" on the already bad FC GaGa?? assuming your company sponsor petrol, or your father own a petrol station then its fine.

if not mistaken, 16" max jor. If 17" tayar grind makat jor, like rogrog case

bro... if can... come TT this saturday... i got something to show u...

Coming from behind the steering?

yea.. from the steering..

That's the sound of metal contact surfaces rubbing against each other (dunnohuat, ask YAB). Send to SC for some greasework, claim under warranty.

May be Cockring clock spring and contact point need to grease up. Better send SC since got audio control/airbag. Got recall for Satey Neo and certain Persoga from Plotong, but not GaGa

Same issue. Went sc twice. They just greased it only cause its the rubbing of the surfaces. The last service, the sc told me that they couldnt really do much. Cause if they were to screw it tighter ( assuming its loose) then steering will have issues or dunno what things. In the end, ears need settle with it. Haha. Will rectify at other SC prob at 10k service~ But IMHO, the sound dont affect the car gua~

Sooo....as I mentioned, my gf's sis got her new LBLP yesterday. So me, my gf and her sisters took turns to drive it for a round in the taman and we exchanged notes. Our combined driving experience include cars such as the Saga, Viva, Fiesta, Kelisa, new and old Vios. I'm the only one who knows nuts about cars.

In the result of our collective review, we found 2 very annoying, if at time dangerous flaws:

- Again, the brakes. It is just utter, utter rubbish. I had to press pretty hard to slow down for a bump while going downhill, it is as spongy as they come. I can't imagine trying to stop the car at highway speeds, in an emergency. Those who complain about the Saga's brakes should try out the Myvi's.

- The EPS is actually not that light, and there is a rather serious lag between steering assist levels. The EPS seems to come in 3 levels: maximum at low speeds, medium at <60km/h and minimum assist at more than that. The assist level should automatically switch as the car change speeds, but it seems the Myvi's EPS is very slow in switching to the right setting for the right speed. Imagine this scenario: You enter a corner at high speed and slows down to medium speed, you turn and hold the steering wheels with a constant amount of force as you enter the corner, then suddenly mid corner the steering assist switches to medium, and the steering resistance abruptly reduces, and you have to quickly compensate by reducing the force exerted to keep the wheels at that angle. Same thing when making U-turns and coming out of junctions. The EPS is unpredictable at best and dangerous at worst.

These 2 factors combined, means that the Myvi really isn't that comfortable to drive in the city after all. Forget about fun and handling, these 2 word don't remotely describe the driving experience. The seating position and the seats themselves are uncomfortable as well.

I find the Viva, being a smaller car with hydraulic steering (and ironically lighter than Myvi's EPS) to be easier and fun to drive by comparison, if you can overlook the milo tin body. Saga, well saga is in a different league in terms of handling and driving experience. The only thing that impresses me so far about the Myvi is the very quiet engine noise in the cabin.

I think viva also has quite loud engine noise right?

Viva has terrible NVH.

NVH is...Sorry i noob...Dunno short form...

Noise
Vibration
Harshness

I did test drive the Saga before i bought. That time i feel that i ride a conti car, the NVH is sooo good.

In fact, is becos my friend fetch me to the test drive dealer (10km distance) by motorbike.
