The 'insuflex' that i know from my supplier. Size is 3ft x 1.5ft. Cost RM25 per sheet.
He previously asked me to get the pads rather than the foam sheet (insuflex).

Positive Cable with volt meter.. a good one. Not easy for DIY. Again, I still cant imagine your alza got so many probs.

Some SC very particular.. will blame any products u installed to your car. I remembered previously when I complain to SC on the steering vibrates...they blamed the front strut bar. I ignore them and go to my tyre mechanic.. it is the tyres, after changed, no problem until now.

1 year 8 months 3 days... Still refuse to die...

I have even used battery that came with the car for like 3 and half years before it dies...

then it is higher chance your battery become weak if you use my EDGE VS for about 15~30 hours

this scenario happened about 10%, I'm think you will be the lucky one

stand by jump start cable to get ready

New Alza premium black owner here. Got my car last Friday after my downpayment on Tuesday. A WXJ owner.... Tomorrow due for 1st 1k service. Drove to JB immediately after gotten my car, pedal till 150 still stable. Quite happy so far, but thinking of a few changes already....
1. Change the honk. Too soft like meow
2. Add Led light at the ignition key area, too dark kenot see....

Question, do I get to watch their act while they perform service to my car? I very heart pain if they luan luan lai....
My previous car was a saga, alza is definitely better, but corner handling doesn't feel very safe, it felt like the car can get overturn anytime

yea, i too feel the original horn is too soft. Im planning to change it to bosch horn, it cost somewhere around RM60-70 but my usual place doesnt have stock for the moment. So i have to wait. About the tire, i changed mine to 16 inch and im using better tire then M5. now handling is noticebly better then before. Got my ride before raya (plat WXD) but i already drove it 7500km.

Read some of your post, I was too considering the white, but way too many on the road. Seen lotsa auntie driving it, a soccer mom car

Will consider 16inch later....

Hate the fact they took away the temperature gauge.......

Which type of honk? Price? Add anything else with the honk? I think I want to do it also... mine is chit chit like a mouse. I asked about installing the temp gauge, SC told me warranty void. So need to wait until pass the 3rd year.

there is a trick to do it.

replace the horse with after market, then you can cut it to put sensor.

anything claim related to engine part, just replace it back with the ORIGINAL horse

My friend using it

You cannot go wrong with either Black or White. It is classic. That's the reason classic black and white film still evergreen. Other color than that will make you "gayer" over time.

Mine is black too. Satu minggu dua kali cuci. Kereta masih baru. Sayang. Tunggu satu tahun lagi, mesti sudah malas.

Balik from kerja terus ajak bini keluar. Actually want to whack her car la. Love the smell of new car. .

1. Light no more dimming/flickered when aircond compressor kicks in.
2. RPM maintain at 3k when climbing hills at low speed/gear engage at D.

Significant change is the RPM status. Car so sluggish when going up a small hill due to rpm low at higher gear. Now different oledy. The car maintain it at 3rd gear at higher RPM.

lets see what are other result in coming days.

Highlight in BLUE

Alza gear box mudah hancur...

I haven't wash it at all

I'm planning to upgrade my alza's sound system. maybe install a 8" subwoofer under driver's seat and all four crappy speaker of course. Do I need to install a amplifier also?

Regarding Automatic Transmission Gear Box, i was advised by my brother, that i should always shift the gear from low to D, everytime driving first time in the morning.

He told me that a lot of gearbox for automatic car has problem because driver hardly rev at low gear on a straight road. most of the driver engage D when driving, unless naik bukit.

This is to maintain the gearbox. He has experienced it with Govt Proton perdana before. That's the reason s'gor govt scrap perdana for its high maintenance and bought toyota camry.

ok. I be gentle with gear box. only rev up to 3k saja. i did not floor the pedal at all. The EDGE VS is doing it.

when u start the aircond, light will flicker for first time when compressor kick. Observe during car idling, when aircond compressor kicks in/out. No flickering. Could be my MF battery?

Added on September 28, 2012, 2:55 pmBro, how is your car now? you are very unlucky. That's what every mechanic say about our local car. Depend on luck.

I oso feel the gegar on pedal when switching on my wiper. i assume the chassis very thin one. vibrate the whole body.

Added on September 28, 2012, 3:04 pmBetter do sound proofing first. At least add in insulflex or sticky pad on your door panel. Later ur boom box will make the side door / tin milo go piak piak.

unless you listen to mozart/bethoven .. light and easy FM.

For your info, Perdana V6 gearboxes are known to be problematic one. Had one last time, quickly sold it off when gear shift became harsh. Resale value was rather poor.

When I got this Alza with the same gear shift problem, I went back to SC. Took them few months to identify it was gear problem, and a freaking one and a half months to get it replaced.

Even after gear box change, I still feel the gear shift not smooth. Always tend to drag when climbing hills. At the end of the day, I doubt Alza will have good resale value either...

Be careful once your Alza goes out of warranty. Gear box hancur, either you fork out to replace it, or your car is totally worthless...

Added on September 28, 2012, 3:12 pmI second that... The Alza with untreated sound insulations makes me feel like I'm suffering from tinnitus... Fat chance of being driven to road rage...

sound proofing,things like adding foam into chasis? any idea how much all this will cost and I would choose to DIY it myself. light boom boom wouldn't make my door go piak piak I guess

light but long booooom will make your door prrriakk... prriakkk..

Added on September 28, 2012, 3:34 pmfollow aaron's method. sticky pad will work.

what if I just replace all four door speakers? effect is noticeable? don't really feel like want to spend so much on sound proofing

using any VS? if not pls consider EDGE VS

1 month / 30 hours driving run in. You will get 2 birds with 1 stone

also got HUVS specially for car HU player

two ways in front, three ways at rear. No no for a bass box on a untreated sound proof car. Later jadi macam ah beng in kancil. Lagu boom boom boom. Doors and windows piak piak.

Window rolled down. Look at you with one kind. Kesian them.

Ahhh.. i miss my youth..
