Welcome to the community Dogthrowdart.

Mod = Modify, Modified or Moderator.... all depends on the context of the statement.
MTL = Don't wait already... Literally translated from Hokkien to English.

Re: newbie

thanks for input. pml done checks. saying vehicle is fine and the vibration/wobbling/rock/shake (whatever we like to call it) is inherent of the car as within tolerable limits..my foot as far as i am concern. pay $$ for this car and hv to accept this shit..

Re: newbie

When you are test driving the demo car, did you not notice it?

Hi Guardian. Nope. probably at time of test drive, concentration is on buying the vehicle and missed out suchs details. Their response is its individual level of tolerance on such issue.. some pple may felt it but ok with it. Anyway they, pml, confirm all the 528s are like this. They checked a few similar test drive cars and commented the 'shake' is more than my car. So its normal!! Anway they tried to reduce the 'shake' by increasing the rpm. Sadly to say it did not helped much as the 'shake' is still there as before.
