Symptoms is like knocking sound when u go over uneven ground. Mine is a different problem of vibration. It will happen if I turn on the headlight and when rpm drops low when I let go the brake. Change engine mount also clean throttlebody also din help.

 

The knocking sound will be fr front wheels area I supposed?

 

Hope to get the vibes in my car settled. Then everything will be shiok!!

Loving the ride more n more as I drive it :wub:

Hmmm you will find it especially noisy once u go uneven ground. Thats what they did to test at sts sin ming also. I think latio also have steering rack issues I heard. Haha ya I even heard the materia's handling is better than sirion. I would stil give thumbs up for materia's standout design. So what colour is your materia?

Hmm.. cause some owners did a CAI(cold air intake) because of the day and night difference in acceleration. If i am not wrong the CAI intake position for Sirion and Materia should be the same.

Dare not do any CAI lah. Later 'ponding' agn then Jia lak.

 

Not too sure would CAI affects FC a not. My FC ain't too great aft my 1st tank (wef my ownership). Only managed to get 9.54km/l and that includes a servicing in between

Ponding?? Wow 9.54 is quite bad lei. its weird. Do you know materia and sirion's engine is actually same as vios? Only diff is one is made of aluminium the other is cast iron. Wondering how come my ride fc is not as almost the same as vios somemore the kerb weight of sirion is slightly lesser.
