dear all members,

On 9th May (Wesak day). I sent my car to Millennium for repairing the misfiring problem. Found out there was oil around the plugs and coil. So I was advised to change the oil seal, and was told that the spark plugs were OK. I was happily to drive back although waited for whole day. But who know, the misfiring problem came again. Then i called to Millennium, he asked me to send the car on monday cos 5pm already. No choice have to wait for monday.



On monday 11th May, I "pandai-pandai" went to change my spark plugs(tot is spark plugs problem) at speedworks. But i found out that my coil and plugs still have oil !!! So i quickly sent my car back to Millennium. They changed another brand new oil seal again.

The sad part start from here. The misfiring keeps on happening only on 1st cylinder and the engine will jerk 1-2sec after start the car. They changed and swapped the plugs and coil, also cannot solved. Changed fuel filter also, and one of the coils was accidently broke(working fine) when repairing. I have no choice to leave my car there for them to solve the problem.




So today (12th May), I called them in the morning, was told not solved yet. They were trying their best to solve it. I waited until evening, they called to me to collect the car. misfiring problem was solved and the weird jerking when start the car couldn't be solved. No choice I paid for the fuel filter and the coil(broke by them ) at a discount price . After 30 minutes drive back home, my car was jerking even when idle. I called them again. You know what. They asked me to send my car to C&C to check :( They are out of solution.

I appreciated they spend so much time for checking my problem. But really disappoint that they can't solve it.

Should I send to C&C or other merc service center?

Must be so frustrating!

Take it over to AhSang @ Wilayah Auto if you would like a last shot before going to C&C. Speak AhSang personally and get him to give you an oppinion, I'm sure he'll take the time to listen and won't charge you.

Sad to hear what had happend to you. If i were you,
i might just send to C&C for further repairs since Millenium cant solve your problem better go to the experts.
Which Millenium Merz you went?

hello kenloke

as they say, customers are always right, no matter what...

i had a similar problem and it was solved...turned out to be an ECU problem that caused the misfiring...in my case, the jerking became so bad that the engine died...re-start not a problem.

anyway, MM Shah Alam's response to yr situation was a big surprise to a regular customer like me. since Adi is also a member here, perhaps he'll respond to yr post soon.

cheers
