Like i said b4 get a good tyreman.
Sent my gf's kelisa to do alignment n balancing. However, the tyreman's
skill ma ma oni. So vibrate at around 80kmh up to 85kmh. Then okay and latr
vibrates frm 110kmh onwards. Have to look for a new tyreman.

Most tyremen are kucing kurap tyremen. They practically dun know what they
are doing. Those that do don't teach the newbies. So you will get ppl doing
the balancing n alignment. Some just meddle a bit and then that's it. So
far i've patronize 5 tyremen. Oni 1 i'm sure is good and the other one ok
oni. The 3 are completely hopeless. Look for one that do alignment n
balancing (onwheel/offwheel) If they take a while longer i think they are
ok. Some just take 1/2 hour to do everything. Hahaha these ppl are jokers.
I dun think it will even be stable at 80kmh

stupe,
so far i only done camber alignment for both of my front wheels only, and
i did it at different time n different mechanic to spread the cost, we
only need to do camber align on the wheels that is misaligned

i try to enter the forum u posted above but it says topic invalid

lately, my kancil front wheel has been emitting sound, it can heard when
the car is running at very low speed n when i turn the steering wheel, u
hv any clue?

Cucuk.

No worries about reading the topic. you cna try to search in the tyres and
rims forum, i think it is on the second page.

as for the front wheel emitting soung in slow speed WHILE turning...i
think your drive shaft is starting to give you headache.

as long as the sound is not the tak tak tak sound, then i think your shaft
(eeek...no pun intended) is ok. if it is jsut humming sound, check your
air pressure.

i hope its just the air pressure that cos the sound, then no need any
repair, i pump 200 for front n 180 for rear all these while, no sound, but
now it got, i scare its the wheel bearing as i havent change since i
bought the car, approaching 60k km already, i think its a bit early for
the shaft to kong, the absorber still stiff enuf to absorb spring
oscillation
the sound is also heard when i turn the steering wheel at low speed,
actually at high speed i think oso got sound one but maybe i din heard cos
the kancil engine n wind noise very loud
