QUOTE(cheeho04 @ Jan 14 2019, 04:32 PM) normal SCs would taichi you, only the Bermaz PJ team know what really needed to deal with. If you drop by and have it checked by them, their verdicts are pretty much the ultimate answer to your relentless worries good to hear that. so i can actually make an appointment with them and apoint mr Kumar to handle my case?

Lol. This Mr Kumar is together with the Mazda Japan technician team that flew here for our car issues? I recall having a limited group of cars that underwent a specific diagnostic testing. Was it last year or 2017 that time. Hmmm...

That time I was attended Kumar and Yap (iirc), left there the car for two nights and came back with new gearbox, found out the gear shifts much smoother and quietier than before.

Gearbox torque converter issue still relatively just a handfull of cars. Out of those few, only a few bad luck ones experienced severed problem that requires repairs/parts replacement. Many others experienced it once in a while. Like mine, 3 months old it happened once. Another time happend at 3 years. Car still driveable without any issue. The most common issue is the knocking sound from either lower arm / steering / somewhere from the car 😂

Regardless year, GVC are updated version, cant be sure if completely free from older version issue. Mine 2015, got steering turning kruk-kruk sound, front suspension/strut bearing issue. Front suspension and strut bearing issue, claimed warranty few times over 2 years but still not solved.

QUOTE(red4900 @ Aug 31 2017, 01:46 PM) Ah... I was thinking about the first 2 numbers in the 6 digit series : 85D23L. So as long as it's Q85, it doesn't matter then? My iStop light went orange and blinking + the ! warning sign also goes orange yesterday. Is that sign of battery dying? Weirdly, the ! sign goes off by itself this afternoon. Could that due to my battery charged back again by my morning drive? Or is this all abnormal, is my alternator problematic or what?  Getting the same symptom, looks like my battery going to kaput soon after the last replacement. Can anyone share which brand is good and affordable to get?

I paid ca RM460 for Varta 115D after trade in last year before sst. I think now is slightly more expensive https://www.facebook.com/battrangermy/

The shop will help to reset istop etc if required. call the shop before you go, sometimes they go out for battery rescue.
