[QUOTE="feelgood, post: 638928, member: 27323"] Just to share. After few mechanics with Autologic diagnosed my car and final answer is to change steering column, one mechanic in Penang, also use diagnostic Autologic and found same error code, A112 EVL failure, instead of asking me to change steering column, he spent about an hour touch up my steering lock. He claim he will try 'service' the lock sensor contact point first. Sometime this is the only small issue that interrupt the lock feedback signal. He ask me to test use first. No need to change column so fast. After 4 days of heavy usage, purposely start engine many times, no more steering lock sign. Problem solve just like that! And the repair cost is too insignificant to even mention here! I really disappoint with how AB help us repair our car. Simply changing entire mechanism is an easy way out (and also make $$$?) but also a waste of world resources and increase consumer burden. I really dont mind paying few thousand for a new rim and tire if i damage n break the rim n tire by hitting on something hard, because that make sense. Now they are like asking me to replace new tire that come as a set with a new rim because of a normal nail punctual that they are not willing to dirty their hand to patch. [/QUOTE]
