[QUOTE="5201, post: 521, member: 544"] Hi ALL sifus,I had a big scare on Sunday. Was driving to KLIA, speed at 150-160kms, from D'sara toll to KLIA, then KLIA to Sg Besi. Was using S-mode for accelaration, then E-mode after 130kms. Then, when I reached SgBesi toll, the telltale (!) sign showed on the gear indicator display!!! This usually mean that there is some problem with the gearbox (costly repairs!!). Had to drive home on limp mode.The next morning (Monday yesterday), I was planning to go to some workshop for diagnostic, worried for my wallet. Surprisingly, the gear display returned to normal, and the gearbox was ok!! Was driving it yesterday, and today, with no problems!! Still, do u know of this problem, or anyone who had it??
