if you can manually turn on the radio at the console, then the clockspring should be an issue. If you cannot turn on volumn/radio at the console, then it might not be the clockspring.

And how they do the black base? Open the headlamp, colour it then re-seal the headlamp?

TQ

Yes, i believe is just the outlook,
Black Base looks nice and fierce mah



and yes,
open up the headlamp, paint it (using what to paint i have no idea)
then re-seal it.
this is the cheapest way you want to change your headlamp to black base.

but if factory fitted,
they wil change the material to black color instead of paint .

shiniraz : when u turn,does ur horn automatically horns...???if it does,confirm clockspring...i bought mine at mutiara damansara for 280 for the clockspring....

once..will be testing again when i drive to office..nowadays just ride to work
trima kaseyh bro hazril!

How to know if it is painted or factory fitted?
Ask the seller? or we can check ourselves?



In another note, (to AT driver) anyone facing problem with "un"-smooth gear change? I've change my AFT last dec (less than 1 year; roughly 10,000km) but it's getting more jerky nowadays, especially in the morning (cold-first start).
Any suggestion if I should aim to flush the gearbox as well or not? I only change the ATF (never did flush it before).
My car is the year 2004's Gen2 (first batch)

check the sealing part lor.
but if the seller dishonest you can't do anything also ...

bros..nak tanya la...sebab apa brake x grip enuff after wild driving down hill?
how to prevent from this thing happen ek? kalo tuka steel braided hose ok x?
FYI my car standrd only with brakepad RM9+ only

i believe it's just outlook.... all connection is the same... I saw few old Gen2 uses this lamp altogether with new facelifted bumper also before...

most probably brake fade out... you should use less brakes and more engine braking if that happen... it's from brake overheating. so, in order to avoid this, change to a better brake pad and better rotor... though not 100% avoid, just lift up the limit...

try ceramic pads.. they're more resistant to brake fade..
is still persist, change to cross drilled/slotted disc rotor..

try trestor advantage brake pad..

jenal sape ada jual trestor adv brake pad tu?

I'm starting to hear some mouse-like-squeaking sound coming from the front right side of my car after the change of absorbar and mounting. Anyone has any idea what this sound might be? I've change my timing belt roughly 2 year ago, so it shouldnt be timing belt, right?

is it squeaking while idling?? tensioner bearing maybe..?? hmm..

idling = never tried.
but it squeak when driving slow. not always, only some time.
Also, the faster i drive, the more often the squeaking sound appear.

Tension bearing shouldnt be the issue, right? cause it is in the same package when we change timing belt?

Replaced ur aircon belt?
