Fuelsaver Supercharged May 11, 2016 Share May 11, 2016 From the fact that it's not real leather... don't say i Ah-Q, but i think faux leather may be more lasting than the real thing, wc creases n cracks after yrs of use. examples - merc b class (07-11 thereabout), vezel s, my 8+yo tucson (done by local agent IMF or smthg lidat at sin ming iirc). ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewElantraOwner 1st Gear May 11, 2016 Share May 11, 2016 Yes , I also have this problem when releasing accelerator at 70-80km. And also when speed at 70-80km driving, engine seem noisy too , what happening? Hi bro how's life, I tried what you mentioned about the releasing accelerator at 80 - 90km/h, the rpm remain at 2000 then slowly decrease as well as the speed, no sudden change down off gear and rpm went up to above 2000. I did it just now on express way and without applying the brake for about 5 second. Can not try too Long as quite heavy traffic. Is this what you mentioned? Will try again tomorrow .

peanuttay 1st Gear May 11, 2016 Share May 11, 2016 (edited) Bro numbintheheart , did you experience what bro ALS and some Bros encounter engine brake? I tried just now and don't know is it what they described. Mine is pretty smooth and no sudden change down gear.for me, running at 5th gear 2200 rpm before reducing to gear 4th, lowest rpm achieve is about 1500rpm (at gear 5th) BUT when it shift to gear 4th, the rpm rise up to about 2k and causes an mild engine brake like because the 4th gear is not smooth revving (high side at 2k) it should stay at 1500rpm or slightly lower. correct me if i am wrong Edited May 11, 2016 by peanuttay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(more revv difference when lowering down the gear.) Edited May 11, 2016 by peanuttay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried just now and don't know is it what they described. Mine is pretty smooth and no sudden change down gear.Is this an inherent problem? Seems like not every elantra bro experienced it. Come to think of it, din manage to test that during the test drive. I tot technology nowadays will.make the ride smooth.

Only experienced this with an old previous ride. did you drive using the manual shift as well? i guess our driving pattern plays a part too as every car...even from one generation to another of the same model might have some sort of a difference... when i first started driving my new elantra...i had issues when accelerating from 40 to 50kmh...will always feel a sudden jerk/kickback...then i realised its my driving pattern...no issues now... and to be honest...of cos i know that our auto transmission is never going to be as smooth or fast as DSG gearbox...but i think its good enough... ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
