Hello waja drivers,

i'm looking for my first car! and after some look around and advice from fellow LYN forumers, was referred to waja! I'm quite interested with the car also. Considering new or second hand waja. New one of course nothing to discuss, For second hand waja, i was told to look for the mitsu engine. Is there such a different with the campro and mitsu engine? was told mitsu has higher torque at lower rpm (which is cool, it does translate to better pick up, right?). Another common suggestion i get is get manual instead of auto, what is there the difference? i assume its gearbox issue? How expensive to replace a auto greabox then (i wouldn't mind to fork out a bit to settle it if it's not re-occuring)?

So what should i look out for when checking out second hand waja? any critical areas or common issues (power window apart) that i should be paying attention to? How much should i expect to pay for first time, i.e. change timing belt, change tyre etc. Can someone give a general price cap so i can budget? I know i can find out from the agent, but sometimes, it's better to get it from fellow buyer that has done it before, right?

Hope to hear some feed back. Am embarrassed to borrow company car back cuti already. time to get my own car!

Oh BTW, how much does a routine service (change gascatte, air filter, engine oil etc) cost for waja? would it be comparable to a myvi serviced by produa?

Try to find a CPS version if ur budget allows. The mitsu waja imho is plague wit NVH problem. But was abit better for Campro version. The auto gearbox makes more sense if u live in a city wit lots of jam. routine service not so much if u know what to change. change a drop in aftermarket filter so u dont need to get new filter all the time. just wash the filter. where got ppl change gascatte for service la... engine oil, oil filter, this two is standard.. other then tht ntg else lor... atf if u use auto. thts it.

with mitsu engine u can have the ECU flashing/reprogramming fun hehe

Yea i also going for reprogramming soon...waiting for my next service only!!

lai lai who wana buy my Redline LCP please pm me...fast fast

Ya, stock brake is more than enuff. If you got extra to spare, then u ca go for it. Or else save for other upgrade

speaking of brakes. anyone here using bendix metal king titanium? i've read that bosch powerplus isnt too bad either. gotta change soon my indicators are squeaking already.

from what i gather, bendix doenst require bedding in the brakes. how about bosch?

bendix metal king is not viable on standard waja disc. will bite' your disc faster than ever. thus produced more dust and disc become thinner in no time
could just use a soft sand paper on the pad surface.
bosch pp works better on standard disc, btw.

i see. yeah ppl told me that bendix will bite the discs faster too. so i'm assuming that the 50 bucks difference between bosch and bendix, bendix would bite alot more than bosch?

after hearing lots of ur comment.. i think i goin to reconsider the rotor thing. i wan to drop by EA n see their IMP rotor. see wut they say....

Try Ceramic Pad.. Its cheap, silent & low dust.. i am using it now & it lock my wheel whenever I wan to. You wont regret

RM50 rotor from kelvin + ceramic pad is sufficient Y want to spend more?

What's the major differences after remap the ecu ?

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1300445&hl=rotor

this one?

50 ringgit for rotor seems scarry

anyway my break pedal now require me to press quite deep before it start to bite. anyone know how can i shorten the distance?

Ya..

For normal rotor exp if those come with brand... Know u paying more cos of the promotion.. RM50 rotor is taiwan made.. Kelvin is using it pair with ceramic pad.. Seem work very well...

u wont know if its taiwan, china or msian made for sure anyway.. at least i get from a reputable person i got more confidence if anything goes wrong i can come back f*** them kao... LOL

white lighter, tat is because ur pad are finishing liao

so fast finish ar.. i just change few month back

em u try go see izzit finishing liao. if not is other problem lo..
cos normally is finishing den need press deeper
