QUOTE(matsukatsu @ Feb 3 2014, 04:49 PM) Dear Sifus, My Gf is driving the 408. I had similar experience with my Myvi as well. Mine was the spark plug cable problem.Btw, had a heart stopping moment yesterday when travelling back from Penang. Drove back my 408NA @1.30pm and it took me almost 3 hours before Kuala Kangsar tunnel. I decided to detour out from Kuala Kangsar to reach Ipoh using trunk road. I'l summarize the driving conditions & items being used All the while, car is normal & doesnt show any abnormalities. I had also major serviced my car at Geotauto last week at 50k km together with gearbox oil & aircon filter. Complete spark plugs was changed previously at 40k. Had also pumped Shell Ron95 fuel to max rm107 with still a slight 2box of fuel left. (All the while faithful to Petron Ron95) 1) temperature-indicators showing average Temperature of 38-40 degrees 2) Charging my phone all the while, aircon set at 19.5 & music blasting all the way 3) Had passed thru Sg.Siput, Klebang and also Lafarge's huge Cement plant 4) When reached Klebang@5pm+, detoured to Mcdonalds. Was stopping at traffic light for 2mins, temperature @40 degrees b4 turning right to a slightly down slope road towards a junction to cross over to Mcds. At this instance and with my car slightly turning to right and rolling slowly to let a car pass, my car suddenly 'died'. a) Steering was stiff as hell (feels locked) b) All lights went up on speedometer, batteries, engine, ..etc. c) A myvy was coming behind me!! With lightspeed action(with my wife beside me), i quickly put on my hazard lights and step on my brakes. The myvi passes me & turns to Mcd at this moment. I immediately turn off the engine & quickly restart and everything came back to normal. Whatever it was, we felt fortunate no untoward incident happended. To sifus & other 408NA or 408T owners, what exactly just happened? I read previous postings it might have been air pollution issue & i did pass thru Lafarge's cement plant!! Will surely bring back to SC to diagnose. Hopefully a one timer & no further repeat of this incident. |
