i just avoid a potential fatal accident... sweat.gif

lucky i'm still safe and sound... but my beloved car got punctured driver side front tyre and few scratch mark plus chipped paint on the door... the damn kembara didn't manage to overtake the car in front of him and going back into his lane pretty slow... as I was setting up my GPS (yes, my bad...) for a brief 1sec, when I look up again he was right in front of me... Lucky I manage to dodge him and we both escaped serious accidents... if not, i might even not survive the 60km/h head on collision...

though he ran away and I did not managed to get his registration number... and I'm still in shock...

any guideline how to remove the throttle body?
how to let the butterfly valve always 'open' to clean? sweat.gif
the butterfly valve will not move freely and can be easily damaged if forced to move against the resistance of the stepper motor. hmm.gif

For throttle body which control by accelerator cable, you can open the valve to clean. But for campro, it risky to open the butterfly valve open because it fully control by the stepper motor. If you wanna clean it, try use those carbon chemical to clean it.

i see,
i just wonder is it very difficult to remove the throttle body? hmm.gif
if can take out and clean would be much easy.

How many people here service they car at Pandan Jaya Proton Edar service centre?

if just clean outside area of the butterfly valve seems not really effective leh...
therefore thought can remove and clean it lor .

my car never go to SC before,
looks weird if drive in only ask for throttle body service or Computer Diagnostic...
don't know whether they entertain or not. tongue.gif

QUOTE(yngwie @ Dec 9 2010, 09:52 PM)
there is a step by step instruction with picture available on yahoo search sometimes ago. not sure if its still around.
btw, its easy for an expert but quite challenging for a beginner. after tb cleaning, you still need to re-tune the throttle; either by looking at the idle rpm
or listening to the idle sound that's it.
60 bucks is a simple computer diagnostic which may lead you to know if there is any problem. not tuning  tongue.gif
*
Unfortunately i can't find it, only managed to get Old VM model throttle body remove/service step by step by photos/description. sad.gif

i thought drive-by-cable only need to re-tune the idling after service the throttle body? hmm.gif
Drive-by-wire also need? blink.gif

laugh.gif
if no error detect when using computer diagnostic still need to pay RM60? whistling.gif
like that not worth lor, they have to pretend 'tuning' something mah laugh.gif

Yes.. This what we usually did on waja when got chasis sound during uneven road or cornering. Apply grease/sillicon is not for long use. Usually we use punch and hammer to knock it.
Impossible the seem very loose. Got install correctly? You check the metal rod which connect lock to this trunk latch. usually is the metal rod knocking the rear bonnet metal. Try check and see. If it was loose, mean you install not correctly.  laugh.gif

I believe the problem solved,
need to adjust the trunk striker. biggrin.gif

hello and hii everyone....
i got my new gen-2 cps (manual) last week and so far everything is great... especially the car handling.... yeah before this, i drove a kancil... and it is a big jump i think....

the car already needs to have its first service this week lol.... been in lumut last day.... the fuel consumption shows 6.3l/100km... lol... i know that the one at the meter panel is not correct as i calculate it manually, the value is around 7l/100km to 8l/100km....

but yesterday, i found out that there is a small paint defect on my car hood.... it is about 1mm... i know that it is normal if the paint chipped caused by flying rock... but this one, the chipped is penetrating the second layer.... revealing the bare metal.... the first layer is the car color, second layer is the white layer.... so.. my question is, does proton cover this in their warranty...??? i dont want my new car get rusted after a year owning it...... lol... and i dont have any dslr camera to take a pic of the damage.....
*
Welcome,
same 'jump' as me tongue.gif

you can bring back SC and ask them see whether can touch up for the defect or not. biggrin.gif

the engine is really vroom2 type.... laugh.gif .. there was one time i pressed the pedal at a junction after the traffic light turned green, until the sound loud enough to be heard by a perdana v6 driver... that driver then pressed the pedal thinking that i wanna race with him...  laugh.gif .... but i was not....  laugh.gif

usually standard spring rate for adjustable is 6k/4k,
but since you got the good feeling with this setup,
why bother to change? tongue.gif

but you can try 6k spring rate for front and do the comparison lah...

i would like to hear the difference... biggrin.gif

your car is 2 or 3fingers height?
