If your Latio is under warranty, send it in to Tan Chong, but I highly suspect they will tell that "Nothing is wrong."

if it is the hissing it is normal rah.. that is the aircon sound. even home aircon also will have that sound. mai kan cheong, just ask the SA if you are concerned.

Why is Latio air con so special?

When I turn on aircon, the PSSSSSSTTTTTT sound comes on so loud. Other Jap cars don't have this sound.

This is the hissing or PSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTT sound i heard. Lucky they managed to solve it.
They changed 2 'O' rings and tightened the valve. I tested and really no more hissing sound. :)

There is a problem with my Latio?

dont think so leh i went to book service slot for some issue

-   CHECK VEHICLE NO POWER-ECCS CONSULT & TUNE UP  request them to help as i change to 16' rim so far no different
-   CHECK VEHICLE HIGH FUEL CONSUMPTION-TUNE UP   same as above so far no different
-   CHECK AIRCON LOUD HISSING NOISE WHEN START AIRCON -RENEW COOLING COIL & THERMO SENSOR-VACUUM/TOP GAS issue resolved, when cold start a very short & soft hissing sound.
-   CHECK REAR TRUNK KNOCKING NOISE WHEN CLOSE -INSULTAE REAR NO.PLATE issue resolved, it feels more "heavier" when closing, no more sound.
Zoom first talk later
