Keitheee Neutral Newbie December 28, 2008 Share December 28, 2008 I read from some car reviews in SG Carmart that the Lancer EX engine noise problem (0 to 60kmh) has been resolved, latest batch after July delivery are all tackled with engine noise.. Is that true? has anyone test drove the later batch? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantum 5th Gear December 29, 2008 Share December 29, 2008 (edited) I read from some car reviews in SG Carmart that the Lancer EX engine noise problem (0 to 60kmh) has been resolved, latest batch after July delivery are all tackled with engine noise.. Is that true? has anyone test drove the later batch? I don't understand why always got peoples complaint Lancer EX noise? I've tested drive GT2.0(M), felt noise level quite descent, at least compare to altis,vios and sunny, it's acceptable , even it's much better than old Lancer which is really noisy engine Edited December 29, 2008 by Quantum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
