viva is front wheel drive or real wheel drive ?

i see my front tyre thread wear faster than rear.

i got no money to change full set.

can i replace front with rear ?

or change front with new one only ?

front wheel drive, thats why front tyres wear out faster than rear.

usually ppl rotate the tyre, move rear tyre to front and front to back. so that after sometime the wear out rate will be the same..

if front totally botak,change both front tyres only also can.

Sry, wrong info. Actually is around 850~870rpm when idiling. The engine doesn't seems like stalling. Whereas the noise is cause by the vibration. Just that occasionally it went lower than the normal value and the noise get louder. rclxub.gif

yes, just like what you have explained. the car had very minor accident before, just scratched bumper thats all. i dont think its because of the accident.

i will try to upload a video

optimal rpm shld be around 1k

try going back to perodua SC and get them to adjust your idling rpm higher..

usually if drop too low also will have the weird sound.. sounds like engine about to die

ok will try this, thank you

I am experiencing the so called "tek tek tek" sound while idling (rpm below 820) too. It was cause by an accident last time. Ur car is accident-free right? The sound is from the engine bay or within the cabin itself?

its from engine bay, something like rotating thing sound...

guys.. just recently got viva elite auto... few questions to ask...

1) found out that viva elite dont have adjustable height steering.. is every viva also like that one ?

2) the noise from engine bay is quite high.. especially the sound is like tight or misaligned timing belt.. is this normal for viva ?
*
yes i felt the same with my viva elite...asked perodua sc, they said its normal..but i rarely heard other viva has the sound..not viva elite at least..

another one that i just noticed, viva elite is using carburator engine, is it true? i saw in the manual, got efi engine also..but for viva elite its using carburator?
