Nope, just that there are occasional "pong" sound when going over hump quickly or braking too hard.

Maybe your exhaust pipe a bit loose, banging against chassis?

Ying · « **Reply #12 on:** October 13, 2009, 09:29:58 AM »

car is 4 yrs+, so I am looking for a more comfort absorber as replacement. Current set still ok but I find it a bit harder than before.

Same here, mine is also about 4yrs+, front shocks are harder than the day I got it. Mentioned to AS during 70k km servicing and they told me my shocks are jammed.

Sama sama, but Chin Hon have no stocks and they dont even know when they will arrive

The model for Latio is KYB Excel GR-02
