Just collected my car at 5pm. Sent in at 2pm... Went for a spin with the technical head. He heard the knocking noise as well.

Upon collection, he told me that he tested it and no more noise heard. What he did was tighten up the lower arm screw and all suspensions screws and nuts. Apart from this, he applied grease on all possible suspension joints/bushing as well.

Following is what written on the ServiceOrder:

Drove like 10km back home, no noise heard yet. Still cant confirm if it solved the issue. Will monitor for the next few days.

As for noisy eps sound, its normal. Loose brake pedal, normal also since its freePlay mechanism. sweat.gif
Done, pls refer above.

hmm.. loose brake pedal i dun have this issue.. u should insist for a change for a new one since its still under warranty.

alright will wait for your update for next few days..

so now u try purposely drive through bumpy roads like before and no more knocking sound?

well i guess the solution is really to tighten lower arm/suspensions screws/nuts issue and put some grease?

hmm took u 3 hours for all these things to settle up?

They tighten up all 4 arms... Now my rear legs got squeaking sound upon crossing speedbumps.

Perhaps too tight?

Or maybe let it rundown first... And see how it goes... hmm.gif

aww... squeaking sound horrible. .. hmm maybe some rubber got hole thus making squeaking noise? or maybe its time to claim new set? before this is front got sound and now it goes to rear? aww...

4 arms meaning front got 2 and rear got 2 right?

Same o shit...

Dissappointed with this car.

Maybe i have high expectation upon comparing my previous ride.

thats mean still have knocking sound for the front when on uneven or bump?

oh no... thats so sad tightening the lower arm and apply some grease can't solve this problem? time to claim warranty for new lower arm? !!!

Wow.. U really spent alot of time on ur ride.

Thanks for the suggestion of Aikka.
Ford Focus Mk2 2.0L S Hatchback.
Yeap, the knocking aound still there.

I dont think they will acknowledge this and get u a replacement since its not an issue at all.
*
but some of the G spec owners here never have this kind of issue? so should we raise this issue to HQ and get a replacement since its kinda annoy? ~

normally, got knocking sound upon wheel turn mostly come from the steering rack. This is my experience on 2 of my previous ride.
i guess  single or 2 case reported wont give their management a hint since its like once in a blue moon case.

apart from this, i also asked the Team Lead on the common reported case on new Vios. He said mainly is over-sensitve alarm sensor only. Other than that, nothing.
*
can u show me the pictures of steering rack please? i want to know more.

you can go to facebook "toyota Malaysia" and u can see many ppl have same problem with us.

I didn't snap pictures at all. Don't think they allow us into the service bay. Only waited at lounge.

hmm so we have to tighten nuts for the steering rack or apply some grease to solve the noise prob?

so there's no more sound after it's tighten now? i guess i have to call my mech to do the same instead of relying on sc.

100% no more sound. I go through same road same bump same speed , confirm no more sound.

U also face this prob? ur car spec?

mine all prob solved. now only find solution when i take full turn left when reverse in morning and turn back normal then got "krak" sound... afterwards no more liao. only happen one time every morning / or when car cools down.
