sick of your alfa liao ah [laugh]

 

anyway my previous car before my current alfa is the latio sport CVT (first batch in Singapore if i am not wrong). Drove it for 4 years +

 

I drive it hard and had no problem with the CVT. Change CVT oil every 40 000km if I remeber correctly.

 

Its a good workhorse with FC averaging from 11- 13km/l. Even better FC if your drive like a family man.

 

Handling is not bad, brakes abit weak cause drums on the back. But sufficient to stop the car.

 

Normal drivers might not be familiar with the CVT and thus might find it "under-powered"

 

Nissan Keyless entry and start is a god sent. Don't even need to take out key/transponder from your pocket at all!

Hi, talking about brakes, I feel that my Sylphy's brakes are indeed weak, like the biting of the brake discs isn't that strong as compared to my previous VIOS. Sometimes it makes a click click sound if I brake harder. Is it normal?
