And yes, it's a 1L bottle i bought for rm14 (if remember correctly)

so means, it will work? coz i always tot engine parts are metals... haha

btw, dear masters... got a question. my car is seriously under-powered. since i do mostly city-driving (only weekends highway), is it advisable to change to a lightened flywheel? i already read the pros and cons from itnernet, but i would appreciate first-hand experience from u guys on this. say if i cruise on highways at 110-140kph will it cause negative effects for me? again, mine is a 1.5L Manual.

another question - how to know if a clutch needs replacing?
*
i also wan to know ... wait for those daiko and sifu explain ba ...
u no surf and ask katak.com meh? .. haha

@masao ... 500ml add up not much only la ... when i topup my leftover engine oil, ngam ngam 500ml (coz i pour out onto a 500ml bootle and brought to kl), only add up abit around 0.3cm on the dipstick ...

haha after looking at your pictures (those oil stains near gasket) i think your car and mine has same problem. mine also having oil stains there, my bro said it's leaking oil probably due to gasket. but i havent change la, waiting for next service/budget.

about the "wind" sound when moving, but cant be heard when you are not moving (eventho press gas), i suspect is your wheel bearing is worn out. mine also, on driver side, front wheel. when cruising, can hear it liao.
*
oh wheel bearing ah? ... roughly know where is it but u got any pic to show? ... pic shows a thousand words ..
u r in KL right if i din rmb wrong? .. bila wan fix? .. bring me along if DIY prince taktau fix .. hahahaha ...

no no, wheel bearing is not steering wheel
see this link bro, it describe what is a wheel bearing, and also a picture of it (albeit a small one). each wheel will have one. so unless you've modified your wira to have 6 wheels like a humvee, you can replace all 4. but usually just replace whichever that is worn la. these things last a long time de unless u hit lubang a lot.

eh your cables RM70 u still call "cheap cheap"  doh.gif  to me, RM70 is a lot liao haha
*
oh ok ... i will have a few test dry 2nite to see where the sound came from .. but kinda hard if i am alone .. lolx
yea lo RM70 is expensive liao ...

QUOTE(kazami @ May 28 2009, 11:47 AM)
then my mech con me lor.. seriously i told them to check then found out cable got problem..
charge me for RM70 OEM spec... then i got no choice but to take it..
actually i saw in garage sale about RM100+ abit for 9mm if i not mistaken... i plan to change thicker but i couldnt wait... as i need to use my car to college..
*
garage sales for RM40~RM50 bosch sports 8mm cable, then got RM140 Quadcore 10.0mm cable then got pro royale 10.0mm unknown price RM150 to RM170 i think (comes with grounding cables) ...

@jen, how much u selling the pro royale? .. lolx
@masao, when u plan to fix? ...

and wat about RPM @ 0 during idling? ... when start engine its normal and go to around 700 RPM .. after that will drop back to 0 ....
