actuali, i got the same prob with the noise and i check with Keung at the Sri muda there and he told me is the sounds which came from the suspension and nothing to do with the steering rack as earlier i suspected it was the faulty of the steering rack.

hi Guys,

Need some help here.
After 9 years I went out for a date last night :thefinger:
The chick was complaining that the car is to noisy but she liked it ( thansk to timmy :)

I was driving on a curvy road and I took a very narrow and hard right corner.
Well there is good news and a bad news about that almost 80 degree right corner:
Good news : She hold my hand because she was exited or freaked out..who cares :biggrin: my objective is achieved
Bad news: some kind of noisy appear on my left suspension side. It like water splashing or plastic had straggled to the arm. I also found that there is significant amount of water on my passenger side carpet.
( I went for a car wash the day before)
Well I freaked out after that and I was driving completely slower on the corners and the sound is not that noisy... it then disappeared on straight line.
What could this be? Any idea guys?

Hey all Gurus here, does anyone have experience any problems like after VTEC kicks in, and when you slows down, and tries to accelerate again, sometimes the car doesnt seem like wanna accelerate (especially on low rev)? As if there's air/fuel problem, like its not giving air/fuel to the engine? Some told me it MIGHT be the air/fuel setting is out. Some said maybe is the MAP sensor. Some also said MAYBE the throttle body is dirty. But I have the TB washed, serviced, changed spark plugs, the problem still exist, but its not as bad as it used to though. Need your professional advices Gurus :) cheers.

Hi guys, I have an issue whereby after I vtec there is rattling sound like something is loose coming from my accelarator pedal. I will only hear this sound when I lift my foot of the pedal. Had checked all the nuts and bolt are tighten. The sound is coming from inside the engine bay. it doesn't effect the performance but it's bloody annoying. Anyone experience this before? Cheers ..

I checked with N1 mech, he told he at the firewall there is this bracket which meant to be loose as it will expand when it's hot and there are some washers there.. it could be worn out and the rattle could come from the washers.. I will cehck further and update once I get more info..
