metallic cit..cit..cit sound, quite loud when idle..

Mine after warm up the sound will disappear, means not so serious compare to yours.

Maybe i will wait until change timing belt only change it, becos now 42k, half way+, hope it can tahan until 80k...

Becos ur now still in early failure stage, so shorter time only...

My car 1st time also like this, sometimes completely silent even cold start, then now everyday cold start will screech until the engine is warm/hot...park under sun will shorten the time too...

the sound got 2 types 1... i kena both...

1] the cit cit sound during cold start, after a while (1 - 2 minutes the sound gone, back to normal loud campro roaring sound, hehehehe) that 1 i dunno wat the prob...

2] the screeching sound, bad ass version of the cit cit sound, longer tone... that 1, if u're not turn on the air-cond, the sound only came out in 1k - 2k rpm range, above 2k rpm or idling rpm (which is ngam2 1k) no sound come out... if u turn on the air cond, idling also the sound came out until 2k - 2.5k rpm range, higher rpm range the sound hilang alrdy... this 1 got 2 possibility, the cheaper version problem is ur belting kong alrdy, need to change, around RM70 (non-warranty since it's a wear n tear part)... the more expensive version is the belting tensioner prob, can get warranty replacement if still got, if not, prepare RM300++ for replacement... dont go for the cheaper/ciplak coz it may come again unless the cheap part known for the reliability & tahan more than the ori proton part...
