Lol, lotus handling is no joke. Together with multilink suspension, it's stable than many cars on market.

what do you means by stable? cornering and handling good eh?

pausible cause:

1) low tyre pressure
2) leaking power steering oil / low level power steering oil
3) steering pump kaput?
4) driver not yet eat rice / puasa

or maybe related to tyre alignment not right as it supposed so, since lately my car sometimes goes jump into those patch holes,??? hmm.gif

fyi, my site office nearby Pulau meranti Cyberjaya, it got a lot of patch holes on the road.. vmad.gif mad.gif

I think it should have a rear anti-roll bar. You can verify this by looking at the back of the car, where there should be a black bar there running along the multi-link frame. The default size is 14mm if I'm not mistaken. I am running on the 16mm Ultra-racing anti-roll bar now and to be honest I hardly feel any difference, and aside from that I got the metal stress noise which is presumably due to the increase in size of the bar.

thanks for reply,
got any suggestion on item to add for enhancement in stability?
or do you think that factory stock is already good enough ? hmm.gif

As far as I can remember the car itself is actually very good already without any additions. But if you insist, I suggest going for better tyres first, else you will still not be happy no matter how many bars you add. smile.gif The SV comes with a front strut bar by default right?
*
yes it comes with front strut bar ..
im also planning for tyres changes, silverstone stock tyres already "haus" and "makan tepi" even-tough car millage just about 23k hmm.gif doh.gif

I'm currently using the Bendix Metal King Titanium. Braking power is satisfactory, though it could still be better. Makes noise (not high pitched) when cold, when it's warmed up it's pretty much silent.

Costs around RM110 or so.
*
last month i went to SC for 25k checkup and services, the mechanic said my front brake pads already left 30% , they suggest to change it to new one when next service..

but i'm planning not to use stock brake pads brand Bosh it is?

where can i go to change brake pad to Bendix Metal King Titanium? icon_question.gif

Ya , is part of the chasis, the steel is for safety reason to avoid when "touch wood" accident the crash dint hit to the radiator.

Better use good brake pad. The original brake pad is sucks.

Mod on my brake:
Slotted and hole disc rotor,
Bendix Metal King titanium brake pad
Evo 5 double layer brake servo ( Persona original servo is 1 layer, which is not enough) sweat.gif
*
My SV got rear and front disc brake.. Can i know how much for change to slotted and hole disc rotor?
How about bendix metal king titanium brake pad?

Which version of Myvi?
Myvi's EPS is the shittiest EPS I've driven. Not only it is numb, It has a very noticeable delayed response to speed changes and switching to the appropriate steering weight.

Even Axia also don't have this problem.

I don't know which version of myvi but his plate number start with WYC ....

Maybe the air-cond was engaged. The car is freaking slow to respond whenever the damn compressor is running.

Nope,i don't turn on my aircond .. I wonder why my car slow response ..

When you say slow response, do you mean the car doesn't seem to respond to the throttle input regardless of how deep the pedal is pressed until a second or two later? I experienced this before, and I'm not sure why it happened. When was the last time your spark plugs were changed?
*
yes, that slow response you mentioned above were the same thing happened to me this morning and few times before..

my car's spark plug already been changed by SC during 20,000 km service
my current millage about 26,000 km
