After 2 days of blinking CEL during warm up early morning, it didn't show up on the 3rd day of warm up. When to change engine oil n filter n check the spark plug (denso iridium IK20 - bout 20k km used) found that one of the sparker head (needle look) got a little bend. Ain't sure this is cause of CEL blinking or not. Another finding is the AT fluid, found lot of particles or dirty AT fluid. Need to change this coming weekend, no gearbox issue or abnormal symthom though. Ain't sure will this also be part of the CEL blinking concern?

It will be not recommended as home audio using different current n voltage. E.g 5V for home audio vs 12v for car audio.

since your changer installed at the trunk, u can try to check the wires connection whether any loose wire or not. Change ur HU if you bring ur HU to install in JB, it should cost around RM30. If you are not very particular to the details of music, u can always find a HU with USB/ipod port which easy for you to upload new music and save a little weight of a 10 CD changer.

I also thinking of downgrade my 17" (205/45/17) to 15" after market leh. I did lowered my spring (sport spring) so i found it too bumpy with the thinny tyre's side wall. Of coz handling is superb though.

I dunno any V1 AT bros observed/experienced this before. after our 4th gear, there is a final drive (dunno what it call) where u could sense it will drop ur rpm after 4th gear. mine drop point must archieved at least 80kmh then will drop from 3krpm to 2krpm with lighten ur foot (sometimes have to) apply. Any V1 AT bros here experienced as well? if yes, what is ur drop point speed for final drive (again dunno whether correct or not to call it final drive)?

AT final gear 100kmh roughly 2.6krpm, 120kmh 3krpm.. MT need bros here to advice..
For TS, 300km per full tank definitely something goes wrong, mind to share when u call it full tank, how many litre u pump for it? And % of city/jam n expressway?

Ic Ic.. I sensed this during NSH going at 110-120kmh the time, when there is a car in front of me, I lift my foot to slow down the time, I can c the rpm raise (which supposed to drop?) but it is just a likely 0.5s it drop back.. Never figure it out what happen, tot it was the auto gearbox respond to react downshift when lighter foot at acc pedal (the first sight to lift foot totally) to maintain ur current speed.. Just my guess..

braking system best to change everything together u wanna up size rotor confirm cannot fit stock caliper if up size whole system to 330mm i think you need a 17 to 18 inch rim If let say the stock caliper bracket which give the length for our stock rotor replace with 300mm or 330mm caliper bracket, can this method work? i'm on 17x7.5J rim now and off set around 38-40 i think. Another noob question, our stock front BKK can used on our rear? ;D

previously my steering also vibrate when hit those speed 110kmh+-, after go Sun Hup Tyres at JB (recommended by Bro LMF) use their default alignment for cerato V1 and now feel lot betta to drive at that speed.
Another concern is if u have sport rim which need to use spacer to clear ur bkk (especially for front) it also tend to vibrate ur steering.
And there is a ring type item helps to minimize the gap inbetween ur after market sport rim and ur center hub also could reduce the vibration (never try but tyre shop mechanic should know about this).

Dear Bros & Sis, Do you know what is the size of our stock rotor? is it somewhere around 262mm? If let's say I wanna use rotor with the size of 303mm or even 330mm (with the condition our rims can clear for that size), can our stock caliper flexibly hold the upsize rotor well? Sorry for my noob question but seems like bigger rotor makes the car looks very swee~ thanks~!
