QUOTE(Zero-Enna @ May 24 2017, 12:49 AM) i also noticed mine also got sound. *tak* *tak* *tak* when playing from USB. Actually, I noticed it happens mainly during song track change. Will see if service center have a fix for this, though I highly doubt it since it seems not much ppl complaining on this. Still have a few weeks before next service though. Not sure if I'm too sensitive or what, I also hear car brake sound like "thup" (once only) whenever I press the brake even if it's not sudden brake or complete stop... these extra noises are making me crazy

QUOTE(muman7 @ May 24 2017, 10:32 AM) Bro, how long you get your car d? This sounds are there from the beginning or just appear recently? Just got it ~2 weeks ago... I think it's like this from the beginning as I just started to use USB for music only recently. Brake sound also noticed recently.

QUOTE(Boss262 @ May 24 2017, 04:51 PM) Knocking braking sound? if its knocking it's because of the ABS. I don't have any weird brake sound, beside that 1 time need to brake hard enough if not hantam kereta depan, knocking sound heard tuk tuk like that. Not knocking sound. Also difficult to explain... more like a "thup" once. At first I thought it's something in my trunk causing the sound, but it's pretty much empty The sound happens whenever I use the brake even for slowing down, so it should not be the ABS engaging. I'll try check with the service center when I do the next service... at the moment, it's just annoying.

QUOTE(croydon @ May 26 2017, 02:41 PM) If the VLT numbers are correct, then this mean the car tint is not meeting JPJ standard. My understanding is that the glass window itself will absorb some light too, so if the tint is at min allowable VLT, it will fail the VLT test.

QUOTE(aidi07 @ May 26 2017, 03:24 PM) actually it is accroding to JPJ guideline  What I meant is that if the tint itself is at the max spec: 70%, 50% and 30%, after installing on the car window, the final VLT will be lower than that as the windows also have certain light absorption.

QUOTE(muman7 @ May 26 2017, 05:08 PM) Thanks for the input. Not sure if we can add a layer tint on top of existing windshield tint. 😂 Not advisable, it will be too dark and very noticeable to be non-JPJ compliant. Unless you add a very light tint, which is not efficient in heat, UV, IR rejection. Better tear down original and put on a new good tint.

QUOTE(djhenry91 @ Jun 1 2017, 07:31 AM) Than u never drive saga flx before.. Release break pedal, wait 1 or 2 sec baru press accelator Car is okay at medium - high speed. But in car jam and trying to squeeze in between other cars is quite difficult to control. Low precision when trying to move from complete stop and moving at low speed.

QUOTE(maxtor1 @ Jun 9 2017, 07:29 PM) what? 1 month cannot hit 1000km ??? How u drive oh ?... I 1 month at least 5000km to 9000km... Don't have the need to travel between states. Go to work back and forth total is 15km only. Barely touch 500km in my first month, and that I managed that only because I drove around after getting the new car. If normal drive, my petrol is <RM100 per month

QUOTE(maxtor1 @ Jun 11 2017, 07:32 AM) tell u something. If u drive like that, your car will be run less km per tank and under power after a year.. Pls drive 6000rpm all the time. Or simply drive from johor to KL or sg petani to KL and return trip on the 1st 1000km. Drive 200kmph all the time.. Just like my other friend complaining their vios no fuel saving (19 cent /km ) and under power.. Because they drive 20km a day. My ex vios 2010 run daily 150km minimum. Always at 6000rpm and until i sold was 342000km. Never have under ppwer iasue. Never have to worry fuel issue. Normally 15 cent /km. Please bear in mibd. The more u drive, the more it last. I'm a law abiding citizen. My car is mainly for city drive Not possible to go even over 90km/hr. Besides. with <RM100 petrol per month, the savings of 15cents/km vs 19cents/km is not significant As long as it matches my previous car FC (Kelisa), I'm okay with that and it seems able to do so even before the 1st service.

QUOTE(maxtor1 @ Jun 13 2017, 11:03 AM) Wow. 19 cent also acceptable.. Cant believe. Btw you r low usage user. Soon your car may not perform as 1.6 power when u need to run. Oil sluge already stuck inside the cylinder wall make your engine need more fuel to boost. Pls dont torture your car. Because i work in heavy machinery sector. See all this engine open up and the sludge all over the cylinder, crank sharp. Now price changes every week, RM/l is not an accurate calculation. Driving 200kph all the time is illegal and dangerous to other drivers Driving at 6000rpm all the time is too extreme, parts will wear off faster. If follow speed limit, I don't think can rev the car over 5000rpm... never really pay attention to car rpm
