yea just one more thing im curious about.
i know la technically 195/55/15 is more comfortable than 195/50/15...
but the difference in thickness is just under 1cm right...

so wondering can anyone actually feel any difference in comfort?
*
yes. im on 195/55/15, and the extra comfort is obvious.

To all bros:

I wan to buy a second hand wira soon but my good fren told me that wira often got engine problem.. but since second hand wira got attractive price, im still wanting to buy wan.. which is why i wan to ask if any bros can confirm what my fren told me? does wira really have engine problems often?
*
i believe all cars have their own problem. including wira. but to me, wira has the easiest available parts and cheap too (if you want longer lasting, get original or better). for price competitiveness, i still think wira has the best comfort in the space availability (leg room, height, width) even the passenger can sit comfortably. the stupid thing is the FC, wira 1.5 auto, is No No... ppl say, if you can support the FC for wira auto, then, there is no problem for you when you switch to 2.0cc cars. THEY HAVE THE SAME FC.

lets see how others comment bout our 'hero'.

oh yea, for answering your question. the engine problems... erm... valve leaking (1 time), TB kong (1 time).. it happens to most wira driver kua.. after all i have been using it for 5 years + 5 years (previous owner). this is normal loh.. now, im on 4g93T liao.. brows.gif sifu cata even better.. 4g63T notworthy.gif

Erm, what is FC bro?

Hmm.. valve leaking and TB kong.. I also dunno how bad those problems are  sweat.gif . Can I fix them easily and cheaply bro?

Must admit: I'm a total noob when it's related to car blush.gif
*
FC = fuel consumption.
valve, i think include workmanship.. is at around rm200 kua.. cant really remember. the TB, i change the gear set once.. rm40, around that. then the whole unit, rm700++.. fix is easy, and compare to other brand de cars, sure is cheap loh.. kekekeke, but one thing la, theirs dont KONG the way wira KONG.. hahahah.. TB (throttle body) they said, 5 years lifespan for a original proton TB.

actually my wira also recently purchased less than a year, bought used from a single owner (young lady).
i picked wira compared to other cars within my budget due to the facts stated earlier by some of you also... primarily, because it is a tested and proven model, and the spareparts are easily found. also, bring the car to any mechanic under the tree also they know how to fix, because so many ppl using this model liao  nod.gif i intend to keep this car for as long as it continue to serve me properly. just look at the original Saga, until today still going strong on the roads. But one thing bad about Wira is... i'm too tempted to upgrade it coz each time go car accessory shop, lots of wira parts to see and choose... doh.gif
one more thing to add: the Wira is the last model which is copied direct (mixed tho) from the MMC platform, right? well that means at least the aerodynamics of the chassis shouldnt be too shabby, not like the current models, not sure proton R&D got do work properly or not haha whistling.gif
*
it is good wat.. many choices.. put accessories to differentiate our wira with the others.. if not, hard to find our car when there is so many of our kind parking together in the parking lot.

all these numbers....  rclxub.gif
so, no idea how to change the valve seals DIY ma? hmm.... discouraging la like this.
end of this month's paycheck i wanna change engine mount di, already vibrating at steering.
maybe also need ask mechanic to check my bearings. coz my wheels got sound when cruise. hope is not drive shaft la, else is expensive rite?  hmm.gif
*
valve seal, i believe is difficult to DIY de.. need tools to jack up the spring from valve and blablabla.. just ask mechanic to do loh.. engine mounting is very expensive (for those good ones) , easily reach above rm500. 2nd grade ones are at around 300~400. change all.
faulty drive shaft create sound when you do hard turn to a side. then you hear, klok klok klok.. better watch out liao. i personally saw a kancil front wheel POP OUT from her car. the drive shaft patah. really keng, the girl still sitting inside the car dunno what is happenning.. kesian..
