QUOTE(sunny93 @ Jul 16 2016, 01:43 PM) Hi, been using Almera for more than 3 years. I'm wondering if anyone can share solution for my problem. There is "tak tak" sound when driving over uneven road. It's kind of annoying me. Last week send my almera to SC, to check my steering cause it's like something lose inside it, and found out it was the steering rack. but "tak tak" sound they said from the exhaust but I heard it is not from exhaust but more to rear left.  felt annoyed with those sound. re-grease your brake caliper pins.

Tighten it and placed an old rag cloth there to make sure no more sound.

QUOTE(XiaoGuiZuo @ Jul 14 2016, 10:39 AM) Hi, anyone facing this issue? Auto gear, car running around 50 to 60 km/h and rpm is around at 2 but having some "jit jit" sound from engine. Or sometimes even waiting for traffic light, gear stop at D, also have "jit jit" sound, but if change to N gear then the sound gone. What issue is this? Timing belt? or? checked my record, it was the fan belt issue and mounting leaking oil and they changed for me too. Then the sound no more . hope you get yours fix too. good luck

I guess you can go and look around. At Sabah, I went to my car and chit chat with the mechanic while he trying to do his work.
