What is steering coupling? Does it affect safety if spoilt?

I guess many must be having their steering coupling changed, resulting in no stock at Tan Chong.

I changed my steering coupling in Jan 08, complainted again in Jun08 becos i can hear the tok tok sound coming back again but its very faint. TC svc guy went with me for test drive. Luckily he also heard it. I told him if it can only last for 6 months, not fair to me becos my warranty cease in Mar09. He told me that he will change steering shaft this time.
When I collected my car, they returned the piece of abt 1m long steering shaft in my car. :thumbsup:

I have not experienced this "tok tok" sound in my Latio steering yet (touch wood), so those who have expereinced it may be in a better position to advise you. :smile:

Common problem for latio. I've changed my twice already, 1st time during my 10K and the 2nd time 20K plus. According to the foreman, its because latio has an electric steering and once the sound can be heard, need to change the coupling. Well, i guess every car in the market has flaws including continental cars. No car is perfect. Just live with it and enjoy ur ride as much as u can... ;D
