power steering oil? I just randomly take some auto-gear box oil and refill. If want t remove and clean I dunno, I just clean the container only
wailup, RM500-RM700 can change sound system ah?

I just want decent bass and clear sound..now if any song loud abit or got bass, got cracking sound.
*
cracking sound, is most likely the speaker cone already cracked. get a new one for it. i would suggest 6" component speaker on front and mid bass 6" at rear. and a good 4channel amp.
rm500-rm700?? erm.. depends on how much stuff you're going to upgrade.

amp = rm400 & above should be ok. brand... anything.
component = rm300
midbass = rm300
pre-amp = rm200 (7channel)

How much does the following costs for Wira 1.5M (4G15) ?

(1) Timing belt only ?
(2) 2x Oil seal (next to timing belt) ?
(3) Labour to remove, replace and put back ?
(4) Engine mounting (1 unit only, next to timing belt) ?

Thanks

As mention it got 2 fan. One is for the aircond, and one is for the radiator. Engine temperature going up means something a miss with the cooling system at the radiator.

1. Check up the radiator and see any rusty (yellowish liquid). Make sure the engine is not hot when you open up the radiator cover.

2. If the radiator liquid still greenish then it means your radiator is till clean. If got yellowish substance means that you need to flush out the radiator and get it cleaned.

3. Open up the hood, switch on the engine. See if the radiator fan spinning or not. It will start to spin when the temp reached half of the temp gauge.

4. If not spinning means that maybe wiring or relay problem. Try to connect the fan directly to see the fan working or not. If the fan is still working when connecting directly, Then it might be the relay problem.

5. Your termostat is still in good condition if it can show temp (the needle in the gauge going up or down).

6. You can always add extra cooling fan infront of the radiator. Which cost around rm 150.

I got my wira from 2nd hand car dealer 2 weeks back. So, I realise the steering keep shaking whenever I stop at traffic light. I guess it should be mounting problem.

So should I get back to the dealer and request them change for me (FREE)? or I should just go to outside mechanic?

I wonder the dealer will change or they just put some oil or what so ever.

Will it caused by throttle body faulty/dirty?

More detail information:
When going on the road, no matter 40km/h or 110 km/h, steering no shake, all go smooth.
Only when stop at traffic light or stop the car, with the engine ON, aircond ON. Then steering is SHAKING. (Engine OK, wont like engine hampir mati)

Guys, how much does it normally cost to change power steering fluid?and is it necessary?the mehanic is asking me to change since its already black and got debris..charging rm150..

So many things to change pokai already..regular service + spark plugs + brake fluid + steering fluid + tayar gonna botak T_T
*
flushing power steering fluid will cost you for the price of a large bottle power steering fluid. they will drain the old oil. Flush it with a new oil, then refill it. Also include labour charges.

at the bottom of the radiator tank there is a nut to drain the liquid. You may have to use a high pressure running water to flush out the old coolant and rust. However not sure whether it will clean up clogged water ways/paths.

Better send for service, as they will clean it throughly and make sure no clogged paths.

B4 going for service, better ask how much it will cost you. It it too much, you might consider to save and change the radiator with alluminium double layer radiator which cost around 300. laugh.gif

emm, anyone that having non-ABS Wiras, can help me test something or tell me the experience?
When you drive at 40 or 60km/h on normal road, hit the brake as hard as you can, will your car skid (or give skid sound)?
If yes, is it all 4 wheels or one of the particular wheels or particular side of the car?

Like this arr....... Well, suggest to get yourself an Pioneer HU that have LPF and HPF.... Like 3350 or 4350 if you are budget constraint.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1775722
Buy from this guy, should not be a conman.... Only it is "under" water set that you won't have Pioneer Malaysia warranty..... Still, he will give you 1 year warranty.... And if you have any problem after warranty period over, you can send to Pioneer's SC. When they start asking questions, just tell them you bought it second hand(and they will repair for you with no other questions asked, but you have to pay).....
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1831319&hl=
Then buy from this guy(I know his father and brother well) on that midbass and another pair of fullrange,
http://www.visaton.com/en/chassis_zubehoer...and/frs7_4.html
Where the HU's front speaker output power the fullrange and rear output for the midbass(that installed on your door). This is what his brother installed for his Kelisa and result are quite good..... So, everything are less than rm1000... Such setup are any 1 time better than you buy amp and other brands of speakers.....

When my tyres are new, no problem... But when almost botak, have such problem sometimes, still have to depend to the road and my brake condition.....

Mine non-ABS. Over the years, I've jammed my brakes several times due to emergency, always on straight line only. Yes, it skid straight with sound. Sometimes, I do a 2-3 jamming/release with my own manual-ABS-foot. Since I'm concentrating the steering and brakes, I can't roll down the window and put my head out to view which tires locked tongue.gif But I guess both front wheels locked up (disc brake), not the rear ones (drum).

The experience ? It goes like this the moment you jammed it:
(i) Oh no!
(ii) Sh!t !!!!!!!! (skidding)
(iii) I'm Fucuk!!! (just few ft from the car in front). Eyes getting as big as dinner plate, even if you have mata-sepet.
(iv) Keep swearing for the next few hundred milliseconds... you'll be amazed how much you can spew out. This helps a lot to release the tension. Trust me.
(v) ... ... ... ... ... this is where you encounter lost-time or twilight-zone thing for split-second. Unexplainable.
(vi) Stoped just few inch/cm from hitting the front car. Fuhhh.... the only thing I can see is the car plate + rear lights of the car in front. sweat.gif and you come back to reality.

Moral: Don't speed and follow too close. thumbup.gif
