Nothing can be done. Take back car and send email kasi complain say job not done.

Unhappy and disappointed.

Sure call u back again  biggrin.gif
I feel prob with tceas is, when we complain sound etc, they dun allocate test drive with us. How to know what sound we conplain abt? This is what i noticed..

Like when i bring to my stand alone workshop, thr foremen will go with me and drive around trying to make that sound.
*
My issue isn't that bad, so i don't mind leaving it. but if it get worst, i might record the sound and show them laugh.gif

worst come to worst better just go any reliable foreman to fix it

Saw your post asking about stiff rings in v2. I installed it, steering is heavier and stiffer, turning it is more precise. The car feel very solid now. It had been a week, very huge difference, the car is no longer shaky when you drive through bumpy road. I also managed to run 120km/h in smart tunnel all the way. Before this i wouldnt dare because the car will be very bumpy and the cornering was weak. Now saving money for anti roll bar. ^^
*
regarding that, no any con/negative feedback? if so i might consider it *when i have my budget ready.

now speeding at highway when cornering body roll alot

Does anyone of you hear loud knocking sound when run into pot holes?
*
sometimes yes. the sound is also very loud when you pass by roads with little stones. like the stones are gonna destroy your car bottom.

guys. the humming sound is getting worst nowadays, and got a friend techie to check, suspected its brake pad issue.

don't think its worth to tell SC as they kept saying can't diagnose. If i change the pad outside it will void the warranty right?

Aw yeahh Ive seen the forums many people saying have problems. This is giving me a second thought on buying this model. I initially wanted a myvi cos its cheap but since almera is also a few thousands more  for (E) Auto hence I considered this instead. So I guess if you could go back in time, you would not have made this purchase?
*
not all almeras have problems actually.

My car only has the weird sound when press on foot brake (but now no more after 6 months). no strange sound also. only shitty thing is the mileage stuck at 8.8-9.0l/100km.

my friend drives a myvi and loan 7 years same as me, but if u plan to use for long term, go for almera lor. its still bigger than myvi afterall.
