U know what, da funny (or scary) thing was whenever I bring my car to the workshop the tak-tak-tak sound disappear!
Maybe my car "MERAJUK" when I said "Wow that new Satria Neo looks cool man! I must get CPS GTi R3 version someday!"
Nowadays even car got feelings...
is yours a S-VDO model?..if yes, your probably right

:biggrin:

Yeah the crap ECU, I was desperate back then to get rid off my Kancil R85 GTR
MyVi had to wait 6 months, so I opt for Wira so called Special Edition :confused:
Within budget la bro

No other theory yet for the tak-tak-tak sound, very frustrating man! 2 years warranty expired already, damn!

Maybe your steering spoke got a problem.. the sound screeching comes from the horn steel connection for horn system,,, put some oil lubricant at the aluminum would be just fine.. I think..
hope this helps..:idea:

Viostar, for your problem. Here is my experience... It's most probably is the power steering pump got problem. What i do is service the pump with changing the power steering kit, it include some o-ring. oil seal etc.... Main problem is all the rubber kit harden. only the kit itself cost less <rm100.. good luck.

Hehe just got back my 73k service.

My mechanic the "tak-tak-tak" sound comes from a knuckle twisting (when we steer) located under the adjustable steering, but the damn whole cover set must be taken off to see it clearly.

Time consuming, I've become fedup :sleep: & went home, so to be continued...

Sometimes believe it or not!
They even cut diagonally across in front of you, its a very scary experience and i believe it happens to most of us most of the...
