So finally my civic masuk workshop already.
Steering rack got sound klack klack on uneven roads. Also if long distance sometimes it will become hard soft and got whinning sound from steering rack.

Actually before that i go test drive a few cars, since i gatal wan change my 25 years old car. Test test, all doesnt really click me. Closest being the emas7 due to smooth powerful ride dan damn good speakers. But EV seems to have erratic dangerous issues such as suddenly all wheels lock, steering died, sudden accelerations etc. very low % but these bugs are a red flag.
So decided dun wan buy car yet, this year i will use my money to expand my business instead.

Then suddenly my car got issue d. I think my baby car merajuk liao alolo. Its ok papa already said not selling u even if buy new car..(for now tongue.gif)


Repair or buy new car? tongue.gif

Confirm steering rack issue? How to check or differentiate it with absorber issue?

Unless its two separate issues, quite confirm la.
1. Steering become hard soft sometimes.
2. Steering motor whine
3. Klack klack when road uneven.

New civic not so bad actually, tested drive friend punya. Was think about getting either fk7 or fl1 manual, but the price same or much expensive than FD2R so i decided not to. Hence if i really buy either 1, confirm pergi bikin sana sini. Suspension, exhaust system, LSD, turbo kit, wheels, brake kit etc. Sold my car last year, until now still unsure what car i should buy. FD2R not enough cash, lazy apply loan lmao.

What was your previous car?
FD2R convert cheaper hehe.

ES chassis is not that desirable compare to EK9 or even EP3

better to use as a daily runabout, low key and dont attract unwanted attention
*
Yeah thats my initial intention when i bought this civic. X senang kena curi, low profile. Exhaust also looked almost standard.
