Previous PPS shd b remove entirely before applying new.

 

the guys should know how to remove it.

But worried if not properly done. End up flaking or have to spray paint leh.

What's the ideal tyre pressure for the tyres provided?

32 psi. But I replaced to csc5 and pumped 35psi.

My steering has a noise "chock chok" while turning to the right especially when parking. Normal driving no sound. Any one else have this problem ?

go simulate the problem when u test drive with mechanic.. request that u wan a test drive with them to show them.

 

When i reverse, my brakes when step on has a tok sound as well.. first time i told the SE and end of the day came back mechanic told SE no issue found..  2nd time I request test drive with mechanic and simulate then they got nothing to say and service the brakes. But the sound came back again. zzz

I went today and showed mechanic then they said today got no time. Gggrrr. Sending car in tomorrow morning. I read that many fortes have this steering problem. Is that true? Also, when turning fast it has a whining noise.

 

Your brakes "tak" sound happens to my previous ride. It's because the brake pads was not properly seated.

I dun have such issues, if they say alot have this problem they better fix it. Previously I had problem starting up the car. I had to push to N to start and they told me I'm the first and despite leaving car there, they couldnt simulate the problem. All tests showed ok. lol

 

 

The brake sound is small problem, my previous ride has it too. I just hate it when there is a problem and when I send in you have to cheeks to return it to me saying no problem found so never fix. If I can simulate it 100% of the time, how could it even be no problem? It simply meant you are the problem.

 

Lesson learnt, normal servicing, leave with SE. Problem rectification, get the mechanic to test drive with you regardless. I don't have all the time to come back and resolve the same problem over and over again.

 

 

Previously I also had steering alignment problem that the car is veering left despite my steering centered. They returned me say no problem as usual after a few visits. On my last visit, my tires has worn excessively on the left and the new reason is "oh, it is because your tires has worn out. Maybe you want to change tires with us?".  

 

In the first place, how can tires worn out on one side if the alignment is centered.  [smash]  Changed new tires outside and went back show them same alignment problem exist, OLD or NEW tires.

Ya agree with u. They have problem in fixing problems effectively. My car sent in this morning at 10am and ready to collect at 2pm. They rectified the steering "chok chok" sound, lubricate & adjusted the column. But there's still a slight "tok", while turning the steering to the right very fast. I guess I will have to leave with it as I guess they couldn't fix it and I'm tired of keep sending car back and wait for one day. Maybe tell them to fix again during next servicing. Think you all should try? Off radio so that car cabin is quiet, and listen to steering see if there's any noise.

How good is CS-2 hydrophobic? After rain the car is dry? And how's the shine?

Depends on what u getting.. If the SX version, try all the features. Get your SE teach you all features. Then scratches on body,rims, fine lines on mirror/windscreen , if u opt for body kit, check the colour differences between the man body and the body kit. 

If you also opt for the solar film, make sure got no bubbles.

 

Test horn, power window, and power mirror. I think thats about what i did ... hahaha..
