QUOTE
Description of Problem : Feeling steering vibration after 120kmh on highway. Feeling car bouncing and floating.

Frequency of occurance : Occur everytime when speed reach 120kmh

Questions to be Answered : What could be the cause of the problem? What can I do to solve this?

Technical Advisor Answer : Check on your tyre condition if it is bloated or defective. If you are using off-road tyre, it tends to be more bouncing and noisy on highway. HT grade will be more quiet and comfortable on highway.


Please provide description as detail as possible to allow effective diagnosis and recommendation. Please refrain from chit-chat beside discussion strictly related to the topics only.

Are you a Rexton owner? If yes, why not intro yourselves at http://forum.autowor...showtopic=97277 to be added to Rextonian List.

Best to go our panel SC or Panel workshop to check how to replace bulbs. You won't want inexperience technician to mess up the odometer wiring or broke any connectors. Our members entitled 15%~20% discount at our panel SC or Panel Workshop.

Bro sorry to hear about your gearbox problem. You mean your auto box? Needs new clutch plates and maybe other parts. Is your mechanic familiar with auto box in particular rexton or Mercedes? Better get one who is or you may waste more time and money. Don't know about Penang area but if you want can come to Ipoh. There are good MB workshops here who can solve your auto problem. If need my help PM me.
