How to tell those inexperience and unskilled mechanic at the service centre. May I know the full description of the part.

ask the service assistant sit in the car, start the car and turn the steering, the noise should be audible to him, and he will note it down.

Have done that with the mechanic ( He noticed and heard it ) and sent there for 2 days. Problem unsolved. Was told by the CS that they did some greasing.

So if going downhill then need to manually shift to a lower gear instead of the transmission doing it by itself to engage engine braking?

Or engine braking is different from coasting?

QUOTE(dares @ Aug 31 2015, 11:31 AM)
For pre-feslif we switch on hill assist. For feslif not sure, shift into S?

We don't have engine braking by default when coasting downhill.

Yup shift to S. Have engine braking function unless u press trotle. biggrin.gif

Just sharing. The 6-speed Powershift RPM-to-KM/H table

This is based on stock tire size of 195/50/16. Our speedometer reading is off slightly by 1%-2% with stock tires.

So next time you are crawling along at 40km/h and your RPM reads around 1.5k, you'll know you're already in 4th gear sweat.gif

They also mentioned to change the whole steering system. Mine warranty expired ( 3 years only ). After they greased. Now only have noise when turn right. Any advise?

Maybe it's not that well lubricated, just use it for a while more and let the grease get into those parts naturally. If within a week and it's still noisy, send back to them and request them to check again
