Yes, I agree with that comment, it's not only 174 though... I notice it's normally those in SLBP with Fuji A/C that give out warm air... Those with Sutrak are more powerful and give cooler air.Originally posted by chickenlittle2:Most 174 buses nowadays their air conditioner got some problem. They are nt giving out cool air but warm air out frm the air con outlet. Especially during the afternoon.
Buses like:
SBS219M SBS227P SBS236M SBS252R SBS413T SBS484M SBS560B .
U mean those modified fuji were installed much later? then they should be cooler?Originally posted by stooper:Yes, I agree with that comment, it's not only 174 though...

EDIT: didn't see the rego list above... lol... 413T has Sutrak, 560B has a modified Fuji, all others are Fuji A/C
and many students complainedOriginally posted by finoq:there was this bendy 67 i took one hot morning from Bt.Timah to CCK and though it wasn't smelly and the front of the bus was okay but the back...not only it was hot, the air con was hotter than the surroundings, cockroaches popped out from the aircon holes or so
It would be ok to say that most MB0405s have this problem also, besides the CAC ones. Appears to be due to the age of the MB0405s.Originally posted by chickenlittle2:Most 174 buses nowadays their air conditioner got some problem.

The Fuji modified ones are those Fuji A/Cs with an extra hump after it. Some e.g. from SL include 341S, 470C, 527Z, etcOriginally posted by chickenlittle2:U mean those modified fuji were installed much later? then they should be cooler?
The CAC ones are still quite alright... The best are obviously those Sutrak ones, followed by Webasto (I think) (the A/C which looks like a rounded version of the Sutrak with 5 fans mounted in a straight line).Originally posted by SBS3625D:It would be ok to say that most MB0405s have this problem also, besides the CAC ones.

Accident or some road works(wire/pipe laying & etc.) along the route.Originally posted by finoq:today sv.58 had a weird frequency (opp Junction8 at about 152...had to wait about 40+mins for it, and in that time there were 4 sv.54s, 4 sv.13s, a few sv.52s, 3 sv.55s, 5 sv.88s...
i presume you're sitting at the back of the n113. Lousy suspension? that's common unless for the 0405. n133 is better than other buses (not including VSO, VO3X, VO2X and B9TL) cos they have generous legroom. the scania's which is hotter is usually the older ones and not the converted ones.Originally posted by K800i:SMRT's Nissan Diesel buses on important high loaded service is just as bad as using SBST's scanias on important services like service 7. It's an absolute disgrace. I take 33 every day , the scanias are absolutely HORRIBLE. Lousy aircon ( the 36XX or 37XX are ok) , lousy braking , lousy suspension and shaky engines . How can SBST continue to operate this bus ? SMRT's Converted Scanias and Nissan Diesel as well. Horrible Air con . We pay more for price fare and they dont do anything about it? I already complained ( 33 is the only bus svc to my area , i guess you know where I stay ) . They say they will look into it , nothing happens. At least the Nissan Diesel's original aircon , you can feel the aircon even though the bus is slow.![]()
SBST's Scanias + SMRT's Nissan Diesel + SMRT's Scania Converted aircon = HORRIBLE .
