Hi guys,

Just got some info from my buddy who drives a 308t.
He told me his Service guy says to avoid carbon build-up on the turbo engine, we should pump ron97 once a month and also to rev the engine up (ie speed up to 130-150km so RPM can go higher) to clear the carbon build-up.

True ka?

Check your tyre pressure as mentioned by matsukatsu earlier. But dont expect too much on the comfort ride on 408T, its rather bouncy while speeding due to the low profile tyre and firmer tuned suspension. On the other hand, this setting does provide better handling.
*
Ya. My 408t is a bit bouncy too. Have already pump tyre pressure to 2.5bar which is about 36psi. The driving is great, but wife complain back is bouncy. Coz im fetching my baby and wife. Can we tune the suspension to softer settings? Anyway to reduce the bounciness?

I've tried Glass Mechanic before at SS2 but it was for my old Proton Persona. Got a the bullet stone in 2010, even fixed, crack was still visible but it didn't continue to break and used the car till I sold the car early this year 2013. You didn't cover with insurance?

I did insure the windscreen. Do i go claim for the minor crack? Not sure how this works?

Hi guys, today evening just got the 1st sign of low battery. My ride is only 5 months old. I went to pick up my daughter at nanny's place after work. When i came out from the nanny's place, i saw my viper and my car light on. The screen shows anti theft on. Tried started a few times. After a couple of minutes the car started. Whewww! Thank god! Drove back home without any issues. Hopefully tomorrow can start the car. Plan to send it to SC to check.

fyi guys,

the suspension between 2.0NA and 1.6THP can be swapped.

the suspension mounts are the same, but the spring and shocks are not.

Cost wise it will be RM2k +- to upgrade or downgrade, depending on which model you own today smile.gif
*
Hey EP6CDTM,

Will this void the warranty? I'm kind of interested to swap my 1.6THP spring & shocks to 2.0NA.
Where did you check this?

Thanks

The temperature meter of my 408T was swinging like a metronome before hitting the red bar and shown with the STOP warning.. This happened without any warning while driving on KL street 3 days ago.

It was towed to SC and I received a call today that the temperature sensor (thermostat) was faulty. Bad news is they don't have the part available. Shipment from France which only arriving on 20th Aug. :-(

I had the same issue with my THP yesterday night and this morning. The temperature fluctuates a few times but after a while of driving, the temperature stables back at 90. Got me worried when it started to fluctuate. sweat.gif

Do you think i should send for checking?

I wouldn't drive my car with a faulty thermostat. Have your car checked asap! Infact I would rather park the car if have to wait for the spare!

Just called Kota Damansara SC. Earliest is next tuesday. Hopefully can last till then sweat.gif
Got no spare car! May car-god bless me biggrin.gif
