[QUOTE="ramasay, post: 280327, member: 12248"] 523 bring more worries $$$$ Thank you so much CHAIKS. Thank you to others as well. It was the coil. Apparently when starting the engine, my driver tells me he could feel some slight tremor when warming in the morning beside in D mode. I was hoping it could be just one of the spark plug which is not so costly but the mechanic want to change the complete coil rather than the individual. It is going to cost close to 1k. But I have to get it fixed. He also found the air filter clips missing on one side. There were dirt and a tiny leaf inside the filter. They don't sell clips alone so they replaced the whole air filter unit, filter and also cleaned the intake valve. The cost is nearly 1k. Yesterday there was a elec fan failure warning in the dash. The mechanic said the fan is working but the fan controller need replacement. I forgot to mentioned my car was delivered with continental sport 2 tyre. It was on Goodyear nct 5 when I tested the car. The car now feel very tail bouncy on small holes or unsmooth roads. Is there better tyres than this ? Gosh...what's next from Ramasamy Subang Jaya [/QUOTE]
