Mechanic come check using computer found my car immobiliser lock the cranking, he then reset the immobiliser the car can crank back but still engine not run....  found because the plug no spark out. he suspect one of my crank position sensor problem but he dunno the top or the bottom one, search google show that 1 sensor cost RM380 .....die i'm gonna pokai like that, now my car over night at workshop. any one has simmilar problem or not please share so tomorrow i won get chooped, and what cause the crank sensor problem ? i remember just now i crank the engine before it run i turn off the key then i crank again does it case the sensor miss position, can it be reset back to the position with out change the sensor.

Guys , I am a new persona sv owner . I had gotten my car last two weeks . Yesterday I discovered that when I rammed thru water spot, the carpet (where you put your legs) will get all wet . Therefore I tried to spray water underneath the car from the outside , turned out all four parts of the carpet inside the car will eventually started to feel cold and got wet . I had make a complain this morning to my sales assistant and he eventually booked SC at Connaught to help me rectify this problem tomorrow . I am truly dissapointed since it is a new car and seem like this is a major issue and it takes time to solve it . Any advices or similar experiences from you guys ? Besides , I also discovered that the back seat carpet place is uneven ( there is a part when it seems to bloated up and when I press on it there is air ) . Guess I got a lemon car ?

QUOTE(Nashraf @ Oct 28 2014, 07:44 PM) My PE is already 89k km. The shocks have degraded I think, corners are no longer syiok. I am thinking of changing to shocks that are slightly biased towards performance. Any suggestion? Sachs! Or KYB. Just the shock right?

Dont know why stock suspension set higher at rear. The height of the car will be perfect if your car has 5 passengers and luggage. If you switch to OE replacements like Kayaba gas shocks, even 2 passengers behind with no/minimal luggage is enough to make the car look like it's rather heavily loaded at the rear.

Yours is Kayaba gas? Kayaba and KYB is the same?
