Hi guys, just quickly question : Opening up the air con/ radio panel will void any warranty?

There is some rattling noise coming out from it and it is really pissing me off everyday

Guys, i found out that if you switch off the A/c buttib but still running air con, many problem seems reduce. Recently feel cold and want save some petrol only found out

- The delay lag / rpm ram seems lesser chance to occur (still got sometimes)
- The 'tak tak' engine sound during running also rarely heard now

Do u think because the lag / sound comes from air con timing / belt setting with the engine ?

Can send to SC for checking. Mine when turn on air con when car is cold will have loud noise. Then when driving slow will have the same noise. In the end is the air con pipe is touching the ABS pipe. Fixed and now no more noise.

keep trying different SC until you meet the really good SC. I drove 45min just to get to a good SC and it was totally worth it. If you are in Penang I can suggest going Juru. Other states I am not sure.

Hi. I just took my new Saga CVT yesterday. Upon driving out from the dealer, it was smooth and steady as you expect from a new car. I’m so excited!

Then came to a part where I think most of us don’t like. I heard a rattling noise coming from the left rear. Somewhere at the rear seat or maybe from the boot, I’m not sure.

That sound is actually not that loud but its there. You know this rattle can get worse over time right? So sometimes when driving through uneven road, it becomes louder which is annoying.

So my question is, has anyone own this new saga facing the same issue as mine?
*
I having noise coming from glovebox or dashboard or air con panel. I don't know. Sometimes it is there and sometimes it is gone but I still drive the same road.

Need to do some DIY to solve it. Don't expect SC people will solve it for u like their own car. Big issue can be done nicely but not this "small rattling".

Changing to shell ron97, silent engine ever, much better than petronas ron97

Can try petron. Shell feels like water to my saga.

I wanna ask how much pressure for saga vvt tyres? I am exec so it's 14' rim. The label behind the seats says 270 when hot but after servicing the SC help me pump up to 290 even when it is still cold. Which one is correct?

The only problem I face is the fxxking noises coming from glovebox and dashboard. Other than that, saga is a car that has good controlling and 140km/h still feeling stable.

Anyway guys, I was half asleep and I ran over a huge bump with around 40km/h speed. Then my saga kindna flew up and landed down. When landed down I can feel my front bottom metal being scratched onto the road. Besides checking any oil leak, anything else should I check? So sakit hati sad.gif It's only 3 months and my own mistake has caused that.

I had the same problem previously. But after claim warranty for front bump stopper the problem resolved. Now the steering alignment is back to normal.

my front bump stopper stop making noises after 1 month of driving. But my car is also going left but the degree is super small, can only find out if driving very fast. So what's the reason for me to ask them to change my bump stopper since it is no longer producing the weird noise?

no alarm sound when lock/unlock.
the pick up delay is due to CVT delay. it is very common and you can do CVT adaption to improve it (just google cvt adaption). It is not how hard you press the pedal but how long u press it.

Mine seems to be coming from the parcel shelf too. Did u add the sponge through the boot or through the passenger seats?

High rpm and slow to top speed
Tyre ? Steering rack ?

I went back to the alignment shop and the supervisor guy said it is the tires problem and he swapped the tires and now it is gone. Stil not sure why does it work like that but luckily it is a good and honest car shop which doesn't scam me into paying some stupid fees.

My car now got 4 and 6. Not sure sc will fix or not since i change sport rim but normal type

8 and 9 is the killer feature for me on this car. Other i can ignore but this two is very annoying and problematic
*
4 = I went outside shop do. Cheaper and more efficient. Now no more misalignment. But the foreman told me exchange left and right tyre can solve this also.
6 = I had this before, but drove for 1 and a half month then gone already.

8 and 9 = can't do anything, everytime go shopping mall multistory carpark then feel very stress, very scared the car will die half way on the hill LOL

Guys I never tint car before and this is my first car.

Is RM900 tint a good price?
was told it is from US, 5 years warranty.

The installer gave me to try with other cheaper tint, this one blocks the heat better, so I choose to believe it is one of the "UStint"
