This is a rant. I may be annoying you guys by bringing this up again, but I'm getting increasingly fed up with the wheel bearing problem. Rear right changed already. Rear left changed last month, but now seems to be acting up again. Though not changed as much as a few owners in here, but got no time lah to send to SC frequently for the same problem. Is there no permanent solution? I dread the day when my warranty expires.

Wow. Thats bad. But the tc guy told me wheel bearing is among the common issues.

Seems that all of us have our own issues to settle with this car.. haha

Just installed stiff rings at the front. Will definitely install at the rear next month.

First impression: the steering is heavier, stiffer, better feel to drive, I don't feel like driving a toy car anymore. Passing speed bump and cornering is steadier. No regrets.

Nice. I had stiff rings on my older car. Totally solid feel.

Worth it if u plan to keep thus car laugh.gif

Hi guys. Heard a lot bout wheel bearing issue, may I know what kind of issue it has? Strange sound is it?
*
U will hear loud sound from the rear.

Sounds like ur tires botak already. It goes along with ur speed. Faster u go, louder it gets.

I see. Does it only happen when u accelerate? Or during pressing brake? Sorry ah never knew anything bout this issue before.

My current issue is there's a loud sound (like siren) when i press brake to slow down the car (happen even more frequently during raining). Just wanna confirm such issue.
*
as long ur wheels are spinning u will hear it.

its like as though, u are on a very rough road, where the sound of the wheel becomes loud. alot friction.

thats wheel bearing dead.

heard before of chassis foaming, but what really does it do eh? besides, for parts like stiff rings, racing bars, etc, which one would be better?

always heard the same results from all - drive feel more comfortable??
*
Make ur chassis stiff. Ur chassis internally is hollow, so the foam fills those gaps.

Stiff ring would give u immediate feel as compared to racing bars. But, i personally dont believe in this unless ur car is a frequent sepang machine.
