Hi Everyone, not sure if someone mentioned this issue before. I just got my car at August 2012, and now start having some minor issue (hope so) and like to know if anyone here have the same issue.

1. The aircon suddenly came out some nasty smell like drain water, well it just for a while. Normally the i set the temperature to 25 Celcius. The SC told me the smell when the compressor switching the coldness, so asked me to tune to 22-23 Celcius. Not sure if anyone have the same issue.

2. MY right tire having some vibration and sound while taking left corner and even turning slightly left also can feel the same, especially when I accelerate even worse. 95% of the time it will vibrate when i take corner with accelerate.Checked with SC they said is common issue as the design is like that and due to the shaft is connecting to the steering directly and etc etc. I personally don't agree with this as 20 years old Kancil or Proton car also won't have this kind of issue. It is really bad driving experience with so much money paid and driving experience is like worse than kancil.

Your comments and recommendation are much appreciate smile.gif

Hi bro,
Cant help much for prob no1 as this is for sure u need to send to sc to check..nvr encountered this prob b4 but IMO for pob no2, better have a look at ur bearings as it might be due to some defect of the beariings..previously had dat experience with my proton car and luckily it was still under waranty.

Hope it helps

my left head light got foggy issue sad.gif
SC Setapak said they will fix it at next 10,000km service
he said it will not give any issue unless 'sampai tahap air bertakung'
is this true or not? the water inside looks really 'kebal', they are still there even after parking under hot sun for hours laugh.gif

why does it need to delay till the next service? if they don have stock, they can refer u to other SC's..

Wow.. you calculate with fuelly or what? 7.9L/100KM very good.
1. You make any modification on your car?
2. What is the Average value from your meter?
3. What brand of fuel you are using now?
*
to answer your Q's
1. No mods, all stock biggrin.gif
2. Avg on meter: 8.6L/100km
3. Using mixture of Shell N Petronas

Recently tried filling up BHP and my word it is good even for Ron95 type..Faster response and engine feels lighter..

Average speed unit is km/h ... Check your meter and see. For example mine always average 32km/h.

You said the meter show 8.6L/100KM but your own calculation is 7.9L/100KM. Are you sure? Most cases the meter fc showing lower than actual one (own calculation).

ermm most probably you're right..will monitor again i guess hehe..
