[QUOTE="stephen, post: 104036, member: 120"] been a while since i posted ...... My ride is now almost at 65000 kms. On October 1st at 60k kms, I felt vibrations on my car seat when i am stationery at traffic light stops and also in auto D-mode. I called M-Speed & went in for engine mounting change: 2 pcs engine mounting RM330 Labour RM80 Things were ok & vibration free for close to two weeks and then again it happened .... this time more vibration. Plus i have occassional belt squeeling sound. So on Nov 1st, went to M-Speed again. When the mechanic opened the engine hood, we could hear hissing sound near the engine block. As it turned out, i needed to change "intake separator" just underneath the exhaust or intake manifolds. Well that really took a very long time as it is very hard to reach. Also parts in the fan belt area needed to be changed and it is the expensive parts, not the rubber belts! And so the damage is:- Pulley RM155 Fan Belt Tensioners RM340 Intake Separator RM148 Labour RM80 TOTAL RM723 Now it has been almost one and half month .... once in a while some very slight vibration on the seats again but i doesnt bother me that much as before. It happens usually when i have a fast run and arrive at area where traffic is very bad. [/QUOTE]
