could be the spark plug well get wet with water - hence the ignition related prob like what I've said earlier... I suspect it's due to water is not drain properly thru the gutter panel - the black panel under the wiper during heavy rain - hence water go into the engine bay...the hole is stuck with leaves, twigs, debris etc.

ok. will chk.

just now got stutter prob when rpm below 2000. but after i restart the engine; my car, ok edy. owh today i didnt hear any amt sound when i open my door's car like it use too! haih. i pening kepala edy hypermount. so sad! btw, no raining today.

hypermount, can u ask ur proton's fren that amt sound u mention b4 is for what? chk the gear, clutch or what? cos i think if smthg happened can figure it out. hurm.

edit: just now i check the sound is back. after reading from savoc, the sound if for hydraulic clutch n gear pump sort of.

sometimes after i stop the engine, i still can hear something is still running under the hood...like aircond tak tutup... what is that sound eh?
is it normal or what?

thats the radiator fan running. its normal.

occur to my car also.. but not so frequent. donno why it happened

It's normal for savvy. The fan trying to cool down the engine.

yah..thats radiator mate..
normal thing..
dun wury

it happened to me for the 1st time just now!! haha. it freak me out; but i know its normal. hehe.

Wow! V2 already!

Long live Savvy! Come this October, my Savvy will be 3 years old.

my savvy 2 year old already. so far so good. no major problem. maintenance cheaper than my wira too.
just that tyre worn out fast and worn out unequal. need to change tyres already although mileage only reach 20k.

wow streamyx in southern region was so f***ed up last few days...page can't refreshed in 1 piece..now ok already


The AMT wiring is linked to the door and brake - that's why when you open the door - got somekind of whirring sound. and gear auto downshift when pressing brake. Only in AMT savvy...

The radiator fan is normal man - typical of continental cars. SO DO NOT ever restart and shut down the engine to force the fan to stop spinning. Let it stop spinning itself. To save more fuel, when you drive w/o aircon you will encounter this more often nowdays. You can feel hot air draft from the back of the car, quit powerful. Scared the shit out of my mech once when the fan keep spinning. Functions like a turbo timer.

Ya, me too. No major problems. Its a good all-round car (great for both short & long distance travel). The car still feels solid to drive after 3 years. I haven't changed my tyres yet, but i know i have to ASAP.

Hypermount, u from Johor?

Got my sterling grey 2007 M-Line AMT today.

Went through the checklist with the SA, and everything checks out OK.

Took the car on the highway for engine break-in, right up to 145km/h.

Very stable and thank god, a rattle-free interior. Happy with the Savvy!

yesterday i drove constantly 150-170km/h for 20mins along plus highway using my AMT savvy! (2nd time my car hit 170km/h ) actually the story begin when i saw a white SE MyVI driving so fast (that time my speed around 120km/h). then,i tailgating the myvi at 150-160km/h! guess what? my car can push even faster. the matter of fact, myvi will never beat SAVVY

i dare to do so cos my petrol usage is claimable

Yeah, I was quite surprised that a small car like the Savvy can be pushed to more than 140km/h without breaking a sweat.

I have driven the Alfa 156 selespeed and surprisingly the AMT is not too bad in comparison.

comparing Alfa and SAWY? no way man.. (just acting like MyVi fanboy )

No lah bro, I was not comparing the Alfa 156 with the Sawy...power-wise.
Just the selespeed technology vs AMT. Both uses hydraulic actuators to shift gears.
Only difference is the Alfa uses a paddle-shift on the steering wheel instead.

wait till one month. mine got some minor rattle after one month usage. but only heard when got bumpy/hole road. my front absorber (i think) got nyit nyit sound on bumpy/hole road.

thats so not fair!

yes the only major wear n tear part I changed on nearly my 3-year old baby was tyres....

My other half is Johorean, and I'm quite familiar with JB also..staying in melaka.

I got that when first got that car,,rectified during 1st 1K km service, something to do with the coil spring and bush.

Savvy is stable cos the chassis is rigid enough, you can feel it when going bumps or potholes, the whole chassis held it well together..even bigger cars like gen.2 and nip cars can't be compared. no need waste money on strut bars and other suspension mods.

120-130km/h is the sweetest spot for me..160km/h still stable even on my 13'' wheels and tyres..

and yea saga BLM stability also sucks... beroktua cars no need mention la...the worst is viva, the doors , the ride, steering, gearbox everything sux to the max..really like a toy car, nip cars gene.
