I'm still with bro vr2turbo and iszo, I will screw the hell out of them. The reason is not acceptable really... sigh.. how much did you have to flock out?

@vr2turbo, not loaded la.. if the buyer pays only RM300 for the adjustables, I really don't want to go through all those hassles to dig into Ah Wah's trash, pack them into boxes, bring it to post office and send it out. Just too much work for me and besides, I have to do it during office hours. If I want more for it, I think it's unfair to the buyer because he has to rebuilt everything. I bought it used for 1K and used it for a few months only. Cannot stand the knocking noises coming out... so considering a loss and waste of money due to bad decisions. Learned it the hard way... of all the setups I had in my Airtrek, the Eibach springs + stock absorbers were the best. I should have just replaced the stock absorbers when they leaked instead of 'upgrading'... sigh..

Well unless someone doesn't mind going to Ah Wah's place and dig it themselves and take it, you can have it for RM200.. hahaha (that is if the it is still there.. )

Just pulling your leg lah! If you put at mechanic trash area probably he sold as trash already. My mechanic would have done that, unless I tell him store at his place first.....hhahhahah:driver:

Hehehe... well, last time I was there, I looked into the trash (all adjustables). He has like 10 sets of adjustables but all needed rebuilt. I think mine was still there. However there was flood once and he cleaned it, then I don't see it anymore. Maybe thrown away like u said.

If you actually look up on kw official webpage, warranty will be void anything related to impact.

Monotube can't take high impact.
Oh really? One of the main reasons I upgraded is because it's heavy duty = more reliable...

I change one set of Monroe once. Warranty 6 months, so after 3 months use it went soft, so was rolling and bouncing all over. Send back for claim they say no jam, no leak, nothing wrong, but told them they have gone soft, still refuse my claim, so I boycott Monroe already......lol:rofl:

Could just be the vendor not handling it professionally, I mean the brand alone is good but it's always how the vendors here that create unpleasant after sales services.
Went back to sole distributor, their own service center.....:banghead:

Oh man... I feel you.



Well all these coilover warranties will be voided due to mishandle and not following proper installation procedure (according to KW main webpage.) Ridiculous tbh.
Yah! If cannot withstand, how to be great suspension........lol:rofl:

Sell that time smlj also can. When got problem what also cannot.

That's why I do not support those business with many pattern. Nothing is perfect in this world, so it boils down to how they handle the situation when shit hits the fan.

If I'm not mistaken BMW OEMs are Sachs or Bilstein.
Personally I think Bilstein is *the* benchmark. Upgrade to a mono tube inverted Bilstein would be my choice.

Yup Bilstein is good but its harsh, I test drove one fitted with Bilstein (forgot which series) it was harsh. Could on the wrong springs tho.
 

Random Post Every 5 Minutes

Short of actually modifying the pedals myself, what are your recommendations for aftermarket pedals to replace the stock ones in an Iswara ?

Do they come with adjustable pads so that it is possible to adjust the distance between the brake and gas pedals to facilitate proper H&T ? Also, are these of the proper pad geometryfor H&T...meaning ideally the brake pad sits higher than the gas pedal ??

Thanks guys
