QUOTE(-Aktan- @ Oct 29 2010, 02:57 AM) Guys.. my wira 1999 1.5 auto fc is like too scary, rm50 for about 160-180km only, any idea how to fix or improve? please help, i never race.. rpm always 2, when come out from junction maybe reach 3, then back to 2 already.. your RPM maintain at 2 when your car is idle? That is too high..might be the cause.. Because I adjust mine..FC increase a little bit.. Normally full tank I can go for 350-400KM..but now its only 300-320KM

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Here is some further fine-tuning of the original checklist. Every 10,000 kms
• Mobil 1 – Change engine oil & oil filter. • Check and top-up all fluids (coolant, power steering, brake, transmission etc.). • Clean K&N air filter (best done at 7,500 km mark). • Wheel rotation, balancing & alignment. Check condition (include spare wheel). • Check and adjust all belts. Replace if any are cracked / worn out. • Check all hose pipes. Replace if any are cracked / worn out. • Check wiper blades & adjust washer nozzles. • Check all lights. • Check / service battery. • Complete cleaning and waxing of the car.
Annually OR Every 20,000 kms
ALL FROM STEP ONE, PLUS:
• Radiator flush & engine coolant change. • Replace wiper blades. • Replace fuel filter. • Check and clean brakes. • Check brake hoses and lines. • Check spark plugs. • Check engine idle settings (speed & CO). • Check clutch release arm travel. • Check suspension (include dampers, bushings, tie-rod ends etc.). • Check steering gearbox & boots. • Check driveshaft boots.
Every Two years / 30,000 kms
• Change transmission / gear / differential oil. Some 4x4’s may require this on an annual basis. • Brake line bleeding and fluid change. • Change power steering fluid. • Replace spark plugs. • Clean fuel injectors. • Clean / adjust throttle body. • Check distributor cap, roter and ignition wiring. • Check PCV valve. • Check ignition timing. • Check valve clearance and adjustment • Complete air-con service. • Check brake pads. Replacement may be necessary, especially for German cars.
Every 60,000 kms
• Change timing belt / balancer. Water pump replacement recommended. • Revamp suspension (some cars may require this earlier). • Change all drive belts. • Change all hose pipes. • Change K&N air filter? • Check status of clutch plate and related parts. • Check condition of engine mounts. May need replacement in some cars. ETC.
• Check Tappet clearance. This is car specific, so best to check your owners manual for when / if tappet settings are required. • It's a good idea to get your alternator & starter serviced every 5 - 6 years. Lucas has some company-owned outlets which would be of help.

QUOTE(shinjite @ Nov 5 2010, 09:50 PM) if no aircond, your idling is too low.....hence the chances of getting a stalled engine is high My car also having quite similar problem..after clean the TB..seems ok.. BUT..another problem come out..which is sometimes the RPM is low..like just now..I drive from Midvalley back to Damansara..the RPM is as low as 200-300.. Sometimes it is normal which is 800-900..sometimes I switch off the car and start again..it will back to normal but sometimes useless even after restart.. When low, I try to press pedal to the max, I can hear some sound from the engine bay..something like "ka"..press a bit it wont..press to the max then it will

QUOTE(afosz @ Nov 5 2010, 10:28 PM) Solving is buy getting new car  My engine always stall when aircond is on. I put in N, I pump up brake pedal, the RPM goes up. It's ok as long it doesn't drop dead. If the problem can solve by replace part, i replace it..If I want to change car, I wont get cheap car or local car..I will get at least Toyota Vios or similar range 1..otherwise useless.. However, in order to get those car, my monthly income should more than 3.5k Unfortunately, my salary is very low which only can buy a Myvi

QUOTE(shinjite @ Nov 5 2010, 11:32 PM) Normally those got extra income from somewhere. 3.5k is not enough to own a car like Vios to be honest Can la..just enough..RM1000(loan 70k,7 yrs) for car loan..still got 2.5k use..depends on your commitment..

QUOTE(xixo_12 @ Nov 6 2010, 12:24 PM) just back from cleaning TB + change ail filter.. a word from pomen after testing using their scanner.. not able to hit recommended percentage .. found out the motor at TB react so slow.. he recommended to make reservation for inspira if the problem still occur  I don't know how long it can last...  That foreman..lol.. Proton Inspira cost you RM90k..but a new TB cost you RM800.. Somemore, will you spend RM90k to get a local car? with 90k, I can get better car like Forte, City, Vios and etc..

QUOTE(xixo_12 @ Nov 6 2010, 10:16 PM) of course not  I would not spend to much on car.. depreciation so high.. luckily this car still under warranty from the used car.. so everytime i fix or they fix something, use their money.. so i don't mind yet.. after the warranty, sure headache.. Then any problem just change..change before warranty This post has been edited by Lineage: Nov 6 2010, 10:18 PM

QUOTE(sickelmo @ Nov 10 2010, 11:49 AM) hello.. i'm new here on the this thread.. i own wira 1.5 auto.. bought it 2nd hand last hari raya... all working fine.. till a few weeks ago.. heres the story my car jerks when i punch the throttle everytime i went idling at traffic lights.. i gotta pump it again or two time to make it run ok again.. and just 2 days ago it got worst. It happens again n then i pump the throttle again.. the engine died.. but no problem starting the car again. so i send the car to the workshop n they replaced new plug cable, new plug and tune back the timing or whatever.. n now the cars is fine but still got a really really small jerking.. not bad.. so i went googling here n there.. and many people said maybe the throttle body is dirty.. is it true? or is there something else that might be causing it to jerk??? no problem on normal drive.. just when trying to move the car when idling....  mostly its because the ISC part..bottom part of throttle body..
