I dont even dare go beyond 170km/h.....Yet.....

by the way guys....The other night, i was driving at above 170km/h.....Then i step on the breaks....It wasnt a jam break, but it was still pretty hard. As my car slowed down, my car actually wiggle left and right. Lucky it wasnt a big wiggle. Still manage to control it. Is this normal?????
*
definitely not normal

is that ABS kicking in or the car is swaying?

I do not know how does the ABS feel when it kicks in. There is no sound or vibration. When i hit the brakes at 170km/h, my car will sway to the left and right a little bit.

But when drive normally, the it doesnt happen. Only at high speed, and brake harder than normal....

swaying while braking at high speed is pretty normal, if it worsen, your brake disks may be warped

mine now sways at all speed sad.gif

brake disk warped at 19k kms, waiting for warranty claim

we don't do rear alignments for pugs

everything is fixed and if it needs adjustment, something must be broken.

pugs has -ve chamber at the back, if the shop choose the correct car, readings will be correct.

Yeah, I don't believe this car bad as this. If it's is, why there are so many 308, 3008, 408 also there. I believe this happen to me only. My suspicious is probably something get overheated and stop functioning, probably the fuel pump. After resting, I manage to get up to the top. I do hear a owner of 3008 said that normally is cause by fuel pump. I not sure how true it's, any guy who have experience? ECU i not so suspicious, cause there is also other 408T on top of Genting with no problem. All ECU setting are the same for 408T. But thanks for your opinion, maybe you are right also. Let see what SC said. Something is not right in my car, hope this Thursday they manage to solve it.

if SC insist no problem, offer to drive him up genting on the spot brows.gif

Actually this was running in my mind for quiet some time. I experience this every time I touched the door mirror frame. I experience during day time, not only with my 408 but other cars as well, 207 & Hilux as well.

i notice this has nothing to do with the car

the choice of shoes, normally plastic will increase the rate of ESD shocks

I went to genting one time by using my 2.0 NA. When climb up to tenting, I need  to use manual gear, auto gear is difficult to climb up. After overnite one day, I found that air con is no cool, just feel fan only, totally no cool air came out. But after I reach climb down at Batu caves, the cool air was as normal. Nothing abnormal.

for climatic a/c, it will detect outside temp and will stop the compressor until you need cooling. to bypass this phenomena, set the a/c temp to LO (lowest) and it will run.

let's be a bit dramatic today

you press brakes - yii yii yii, chances are there is sand stuck in between your pads and rotor

you press brakes - woong woong woong, chances your brake pads are goner

you press brakes - car vibrates like mad, chances your rotors are goner

combination of the above, be prepared to take a loan to pay your bills

j/k
