Hey guys! Been reading this thread for months, hehe..great advices here (poisionous too lol!). Just got my car, can add me plzzz.

Gen2 CPS A/T
Nanbu Black
*** 8345

Got my car yesterday, went thru the checklist..all were fine and in working condition. UNTIL I saw the mileage, blarrrrdy hell 207km d!! I was like shakehead.gif shakehead.gif shakehead.gif at my SA. He said he dont know, can r like that? Damn, what to do rite? But I did wrote something on the remarks. Also I asked the SA to give me lotsa free gifts to compensate and he agreed tongue.gif . But still....someone drove my new car for 207km b4 me, sigh...

So far I drove around KL last nite, was fine..except the car alignment was a bit off. Will do that during my 1st service I think, coz too bz la atm. sweat.gif

Hi guys, sorry to bother. Am planning to go for 1st service this week (1k++ d, huhu), thinking of going to COE along KESAS. What time does it open eh, normal working hours issit? No need booking rite? Cant find the details on the net sweat.gif .

1 more thing, how far could i go before going for 1st service? I mean the mileage...coz i'll be going for outstation pulak 2morrow. Warranty wise is in the manual I think, cant remember correctly, but in terms of the car engine itself im in need of advice/s plz!

To shikuzika, check out this link..probably could help u rclxms.gif

no la...Penang Island very small, so the travelling distance also short. But if mileage + idling i think will be more. Furthermore i have 2 cars lo...so most of the time will drive Waja hehehe
*
Wah, so nice. Divide mileage! Mine 2k+ already, less than 1 week ohmy.gif . Pushed my car a bit after 1st service, satisfied! Doing 160kmh only la btw...n I think need to do balancing again, sigh..

Btw, I noted the 'nyek nyek nyek' sound quite normal in Waja/Gen2..n I got it too. So, last nite I was prodding my car here n there..but couldn't find the source rclxub.gif . Chassis problem mayb? Coz some said so.. Can share with me where I should look for next time?

ur's is Waja or Gen2? If Gen2 could be the boot door latch.

Mine's Gen2. The sound usually heard when on uneven road or passing a bump. Turn up the speaker volume is one of the solution la haha..always did that now. Oh yea..I did checked the boot latch, didnt find anything suspicious tho.

u need to align it back if happen to slam hard on the boot for few times. Second thing u may checkis the hydraulic holder of the boot, use small knock to see is there is any knocking between shaft & holder. 3rd u can check the plastic cover on boot, Finally check the rear seat latch.
*
Hmm ok, will check again...particularly on the hydraulic. Thx man thumbup.gif .

just able to access LYN. weird.. very very slow connection in my area.

woah.. all the topics n tyres n flying around highways at 160km++ 200kmh++

this weekend going uphill genting.. hehe.. hopefully can use some CPS on the way up..  nyek nyek nyek...

lowering ride is really a good way to improve stability during high speed and cornering. strut bars are always good add ons but you have to be cautious which bars to add. choose bars to suit ur driving; never let ur car dictate u... smile.gif

whoopa: neo cps should be out abt same time as the mpv. at least tat wat i heard.

the surveryor: u know where is the sound coming from? back or front?
*
Yea, the sound came from the back. Ive checked as zen suggested, still didnt find a clue..sigh. Probably the sound would go after sometimes, hopefully la. Im not too bothered by the sound la nway, but when ppl came in my car and complain2...sakit ati oo doh.gif

Hey guys, almost involve in road accident last saturday..damn. Was in KESAS from s.alam to cheras that day, cruising at 130km/h on rightmost lane with a car tagging behind me. I came to a roadblock somewhere in the middle, so i slowed down and went to the middle lane.

The car behind me b4 didnt change lane, n he slowed down n came to halt..just beside me. N then few seconds later, heard screetching sound n BANG!! Another car just rammed into the 1st car beside me from behind...the front car practically lift off a bit n swerved just in front of me, the car at the back swerved to the side barrier. I was stunned like 1 min there, thinking what if they crashed into my car instead! Damn, I was so lucky ler...

So, I went out make sure they r ok...then drove off with kinda blank mind. What if they crashed into my car...just 1 week old... sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Why the hell they did a roadblock with no converging cones bit by bit so that ppl can be aware of roadblocks earlier?? It was a damn highway in the middle of the nite....ppl drives fast, n they did the roadblock like it is single lane trunk road...

srry off-topic a bit notworthy.gif

When using 16" rims with 50 series tyres, the overall diameter is smaller than standard (15", 60 series). Your car will look like its hanging as the gap between the fender and tyres are bigger. Trust me, been there done that. Try searching the pic at CPS thread ver 1 which shows my car before I got it lowered.

Hmmm...like that r, thx for the info bro. My previous car already lowered..so when I changed the rims, didnt thought bout that laugh.gif .

nice nice! but i think its a bit too low for my liking. dunno la.. tastes changes over time.. tongue.gif

i've never lowered any of my cars.. so i dun really care abt the humps.. just go slower over it only. hehe
*
Mayb u could now brows.gif . Its just that u need to do it if u start modding the exterior, to avoid awkward looks..just like sphiroth said. Also handling would be better what hehe.

Btw, our ECU can be resetted by ourself or not r? Just wondering if I can 'DIY' it sometimes if needed.

Hey! rclxms.gif , u guys modding engine now eh..about time issit haha.

Anyway, my car balancing still not rite after doing align/balancing for two times d (once at my fav tyre shop, once at PSC). Still a bit shaky above 110km/h. Alignment also not totally fixed yet, a foreman said the steering bush is worn out..another foreman at SC said nothing's wrong with the steering bush. I checked myself at halt, can see the steering rack moving when steered around..mayb its really the bush i guess.

Can u guys suggest a good place to do align/balancing in KL? (RACE probably?). Stress ler drive fast but not stable...

to norseman - grats on ur new car man, hope ur car all good! thumbup.gif

Go to RACE ler, but quite expensive, RM100 for tyre balancing n aligment. And you can also mod to shortdhifter there. Hehehe.

Anyway, while you're, help me ask the mech whether Apexi Neo is suitable for Campro. Thanks.
*
Really RM100 r, shud be good then. Think i'll go there, just need to find time...this weekend packed pulak (i'll ask about the AFC when I go there). Nway, thx for d info.

If only I had picked manual, i'd go for shortshifter long ago hehe..
