SC forgot to reset it.
U may send back and ask them do so

Spark plug is wear and tear parts. Anyway, it is no point questioning at Puchong SC. Will try to get it sorted out with clic.

Definitely no S version, sales gimmick I guess. Only NA,THP & Griffe for the 408!

hi, all lion tamer here. wan to share my unlucky experience.
ytd, my 408t suddenly jerking and stop engine when driving. So park at road side and check for any warning log appear, but no.
Then i start the engine but it can drive for around 20m but jerkier and stop itself without any error shown. Since it was about 300m to my house, so i repeat this stupid action to bring my lion home.
Just bought food from bazar ramahdan, doubt my lion cant tahan with it. Isn't my lion fasting?

Had call careline and they came to tow my lion to CSL sc ytd night.
SC had called me about problem and will let me know after inspection.

Thx for yours opinion about this.

Just follow up closely with the SC. I dont think so any lion will go on fasting
Might be a faulty battery, hope nothing serious bro.

i wonder if the floaty feel is due to torsion beam suspension as opposed to multi link /double wishbone suspension. Any thoughts if that could be it?

agree with jfcheong. which SC missed this sort of elementary reset,

It was my 2nd battery within 11 months. 1st one sacrificed to my lion after 1 month. Maybe caused by gearbox sensor.

my NA is having abit of irritating issue, while battery strength is ok, find the ignition often cannot set on with first key twist, and have to do it second time and even occasionally third time.

i have tried turned on the ignition without starting the car for 5-10 seconds until the faint 'ngeeeee....'sound goes off (system checking ) but it is still there at times.

the CSL SC was not helpful and ask me to go to Glenmarie but knowing 2 weeks in advance is required to book an appointment there, I wonder
1. if anyone has similar experience with this irritation and
2. is GeoAuto , PJ any good with this sort of thing.

CSL said they have made the report and suspect some 'air' issue, i am not sure what they meant either....

Hi guys,

My battery "kong" last week. Few days earlier, i felt something strange. The multi display screen will goes off when ignition and will on back after the ignition.
After I've changed to new battery, the multi display screen will not goes off when ignition.
So, i think this could be the signal to know your battery is weak and have to change soon.
Just to share my experience.

bro, i saw the 's' version yesterday at balakong. it is a turbo that does not have the following items:

1) body kit
2) leather upholstry
3) chrome trim on door side protector

i suppose 's' stands for standard. no special badging on this version. not sure what else is omitted but the rims are the same as the standard turbo rims.

The 408T uses torsion beam as well but from what I heard, its not floaty. I think this floaty feeling is caused by the soft suspension setting. The NA's suspension is very soft.

my 408t with torsion beam attack corners better than my civic with double wishbone

my 408t with torsion beam can cruise at 180km/h and still feeling safe where my camry with multi link feels like it is going to take off and fly away at only 150km/h

dude, i think it's because 2.0 has softer suspension set up, and i realize my 408t has anti roll bar under the torsion beam, i'm not sure if 2.0 has it

Tks for that feedback. This must be the watered down version of the turbo model. I guess stock clearance, making way for the facelift 408!

I heard NA alloy wheels are fitted on this model?

I'm really glad to see realization of 408t superior handling, which I have been saying all this while!
This was the main aspect that drew me to seriously consider this car! Of course the turbo was like a drug pill.

Just get back my lion. Mechanis said just reset the gearbox setting.

hi. bro. the insunrance agent make a mistake , for 408t is 105-108k for sum insure, 408 na is 90k. thanks.

Don't go to Geoauto,they are hopeless for anything beyond oil change! The front desk don't have capability to understand technical defects.

I think your problem may be an ECU issue. Not sure how serious it is,but it may require a simple reset.

Yo JF And EnergyAnalyst....It is Glenmarie SC. The SA who is attending to me is a big size indian guy name Sam.

Aiyoh...have to go back Glenmarie SC? Must make appointment again and is damn long waiting list. Can i just ignore it? Will it have any negative effect?

Thanks guys.

No need send back to sc la... Waste of time... U can do it yourself to make the spanar disappear... Just search in YouTube for the video... Just press and hold the tight button on the gauge meter while turn your ignition key to "on"... The screen will start count down from 10... After that off the key and the spanar will disappear when u start your engine...
