Test drive Inspira today, 1.8 CVT version. Have to say feeling abit underwhelmed, acceleration not exactly impressive for all it's hype, revving hard for quite long still stuck at 80 kph. Maybe Manual is different but no opportunity to test drive it...yet.

Was raining summore so I was initially abit cautious, but the SA tell me to go faster, "pek wan" some corners and maybe "fly" a couple of road bumps, dun be shy rclxms.gif So I just floored it, literally press the gas pedal all the way down flex.gif wahahahaha.

hi guys.

just a few questions for you all waja sifus notworthy.gif

i'm considering to buy waja right now becoz early batch waja seems to fit my budget and need..but this is my first car so knowledge is pretty much zero..my house to office is quite near about 5km so i might not use car for daily commute..use motor only hehe rclxms.gif

-i really need to know how much cost involved in maintaining waja monthly or yearly..is it that much difference from wira maintenance..



thanx in advance.

Periodical normal maintenance eg. Engine oil change, timing belt, ATF etc. costs similiar. In terms of spare parts eg lights assembly, absorbers etc. Waja parts are more expensive. Waja is also equipped with electronic fuel injection (EFI), that means more electronic sensors and parts that could break, compared to older 1.5 wiras that run on carburators.

Read a couple of pages back where Steven mentions which year you should consider.

According to Steven, that's the year when the build quality for the Waja line "climaxed"... rclxms.gif rclxms.gif before going downhill again.

Crap. I feel so sad.

I think for second hand Waja, you will still need to check on the condition of the vehicle. If the previous owner did take good care of the condition, it will still e a bad purchase.

Campro with leather upholstery? Ok lah. I'm using it. Fuel consumption quite reasonable. Just the torque dip is a bit annoying.

Ok I will tell again.... 2001-2002 Waja Some had ECU bugs where some of the owners will experience the car Morning sickness where the car engine dies off when morning start even after the 2nd start the car power feel not smooth. It can be correct by reflashing the update firmware that i custom.

2001-2002 Waja also have lotsa testing beta products from the supplier where Proton stop odering from them after they found out the plastic material, temp sensors, speedo meter and etc is low quality.

2003 Waja parts is replaced by new vendors and they even had a better wiring harness which they stick to 1 part number export and import also the same. Most of the plastic materials on 2003 waja is robust due to beta evaluation test. Sadly, this evaluation failed due to high cost and therefore a new update is on 2004 Waja.

After the 2003 Waja, the newer version on Waja had this meter
user posted image

The cons is, less sockets on the wiring harness and some even removed eg: side mirror heater harness, export type of AC panel harness and etc. They also come out 3 types of wiring harness if not mistaken (Local, Export and Premium). Most of us will get Local. The plastic material is more fragile and the PVC is cheaper type with no sponge on door panel even dashboard had no insulated sponge. There is lots more....

make life simple... get a 2003 Waja if you want to mod in the future.... if u wan to drive and fk it then just buy any 2003 and above.....

Want to know more ..... search in all Waja thread in LYN till version 8. If you still miss out, i cant help u much.
