Why does the 2016 308 1.2T automatic feel a bit shaky in higher gears? Could it be due to insufficient engine torque? Do fellow car enthusiasts experience the same issue?

When driving a 2016 Middle East version of the Fortuner in low-speed 4WD (around 30 mph), I switched directly to neutral and then to high 4WD. After that, the car wouldn't move, and it rolls in P gear. What's the issue? Is it the transfer case or the transmission that's broken? Has anyone experienced the same situation? Thanks.

I want to ask about my 2019 Changan Yuexiang automatic. When I start the car cold and shift gears, it takes about 2000 RPM to change gears, like the clutch is slipping. Once the engine warms up, the shifting is normal. Do other car owners experience the same issue?

2017 model 1.4T, now the temperature is around 3°C. When I start the car, the RPM is at 1200, and when I start driving with a cold engine, the RPM goes above 3000 before it shifts gears, and it feels shaky. Do you guys experience this too?

I’ll share my personal test drive impressions of various SUVs in the same price range. Can anyone explain the difference in chassis feel between the GV70 Flagship and Luxury models? If there's someone who has driven both, please provide detailed insights! I've also tried SUVs of the same class like BBA, Volvo, and Jaguar. Personally, I think the new GLC has the best overall chassis quality, with Genesis coming in second. Genesis has the best sound insulation! The throttle response is the worst on the GLC! The X3, Q5, Genesis, Volvo, and Jaguar feel quite similar. Subjectively, the GV70 ranks in the top two for overall comfort and drivability. PS: The Q5 feels more filtered and softer. The X3 is a bit too ground-hugging and follows the road surface too much, which I don't like. Volvo is in the middle, but it has the worst sound insulation in its class! The GLC's chassis quality is great with a solid, integrated feel, but the throttle response is really lacking! The Jaguar F-Pace has a slightly firmer chassis and a more sporty driving feel, but its downside is average noise control with some resonance, and it has the smallest rear space. Genesis offers the best overall driving experience. Even with 21-inch wheels, the suspension is really excellent, and the power delivery is smooth and responsive. The space is similar to the X3.

I want to ask everyone, I have a 2022 automatic 86. When shifting from a lower gear to a higher one, there's a bit of a jerking sensation. Is this normal?

I would like to ask if the stability of the Peugeot 308 1.2T has improved a lot after the 2018 model? Or is it still the same as before, with issues like oil burning and cylinder scoring? Can any real car owners share their experiences?

I'm asking about the new 009 model regarding the HUD issue. I'm 186 cm tall, and during the test drive, I noticed that the HUD display is not fully visible. The top part is cut off due to the angle. I've already adjusted the HUD to the lowest position, and my seat is also set to the lowest and a relatively back position. Even then, in a normal sitting posture, the top of the HUD is still a bit cut off, and I have to lower my head to see all the HUD information. Are there any other owners with the same issue? Also, can the 009's HUD display information from QQ Music, like selecting a song to play or displaying lyrics?

I had the chance to try out the new Toyota Corolla, the 1.2T Elite version. Honestly, there aren’t many changes in the design compared to the previous generation, but I thought I’d share my thoughts anyway. The engine performance isn’t particularly strong — 116 horsepower on a car this size is just acceptable. But when you push it and let the RPMs climb, it actually feels better than expected. It’s not slow, and it feels lighter than I thought it would. The CVT gearbox is smooth and decent overall, although at low speeds there are some light vibrations and a bit of drag when you lift off the throttle. When you demand sudden acceleration, it takes a little time to reach the higher revs, but it’s not annoying. The suspension handles big bumps well, but you can feel smaller imperfections in the road, especially at lower speeds. On curves and sharp turns, the car holds itself pretty well and stays composed — that was a nice surprise. The steering is great. It’s light at low speeds and firms up nicely as you go faster. The response is smooth and precise, and the brakes are easy to get used to and feel very natural — no issues there. Noise insulation is average. Wind noise is handled well, and the engine isn’t too loud, even at high RPMs — that’s actually better than the hybrid version. But road noise does come through at higher speeds, and ambient noise isolation is just okay. Inside, the design hasn’t changed much — it still feels quite basic. The materials aren’t great; most of the interior is hard plastic. The screen and instrument panel haven’t been upgraded like in the 1.5 or hybrid versions. The infotainment system is slow and outdated — not what you'd expect in a 2024 model. Front seating is fine — you can adjust the driver’s seat to a comfortable low position and the steering wheel aligns well with it. The back seats, however, aren’t great. The space is average, the seatback is a bit upright, and the cushion isn’t very long. The trunk, on the other hand, is decent and handles luggage well. In terms of safety features, you do get useful tools like radar and driving assist, but there’s no rear parking sensor — which is strange. Overall, the car isn’t lacking in features, but the priorities feel a bit off. In the end, this car doesn’t really surprise you — and that might actually be a good thing for people who prefer something reliable and familiar. It’s not futuristic, but if you’re after dependability and ease of use, it could still be a smart choice — especially with how crowded the market is becoming with hybrids and EVs. Ultimately, it depends on your needs and your budget at the time of buying.

I’ve had this car for six years now. I haven’t driven it much—total mileage is around 90,000 km—because I don’t travel long distances with it. My workplace is close to home, so there aren’t many long trips. In terms of fuel consumption? It’s amazing. It averages about 5.8L per 100 km, so when I put in 100 EGP worth of fuel, I can go a long way. That’s one of the main reasons I’ve held on to it. In the first year, I used to do maintenance every 3 months, but I noticed the oil was still clean as if just changed, so I switched to every 6 months. Now, I do it once a year and everything’s going just fine. What bothers me is that the car doesn’t look stylish. It’s a bit cramped, and honestly, it feels kind of like a microbus—that’s the biggest thing that keeps me from being fully comfortable with it. Plus, the dashboard is all hard plastic with basic design. But since I got the slightly higher trim, it does have push-button start, keyless entry, and parking sensors. When it comes to driving, the car needs a gentle touch. You have to press the gas pedal softly to get it moving smoothly. I tried pushing it to 130 km/h once, and it started to feel shaky. The cabin gets noisy, but I just play music and it’s manageable. The suspension isn’t super soft—you do feel the bumps, but they’re not harsh. In summary: it’s a highly economical car. Fuel consumption is low, spare parts are affordable, and the engine is still in great condition. If only it were a bit more spacious and had a better design, it would’ve been perfect.
