What a day. Btw, how long does it take to be in the workshop.
Thanks

Downtime was 5days, inclusive of part delivery from Malaysia and reprogramming of software. I advise you to insist for replacement car before you send your ride in. Hope it helps.

ariesleo;977199 said:Tks Centurion. Car was towed back to PML this evening and will demand a replacement car tomorrow when the SA call.
Centurion9990;977205 said:Please demand. Its really inconvenient without car for almost a week and I was only given a few taxi vouchers, and the SA can emphasized to me its based on goodwill, not standard procedure.

Kidding... what was the fault?
vasoojraj;1102408 said:I had a drive train error while driving to work yesterday. There was a warning to drive at moderate speed when the error came up on my dashboard. the car slowed and jerked. I parked the car, turn off ignition and called PML. SA told me to drive to the service center. I restarted the engine and the error was gone. However, the drive is not smooth and the car seems like there is not much power to climb a gradual slope. Based on the symptoms, SA told me that it could be spark plug issue and need to replace all for $100 a piece. The car is less than 3 years old with a mileage of 40K. still under warranty. Going back to PML on Monday to replace the plugs. *** sigh ***
