oo...yalo..then i said nvm d..no nid change first..

yalo..i also wonder how come flush it charge so much..

serdang

servicing car now...

i was told that my belt tensioner got problem d, if not change, it will breka the belt...rm390 again...


i thought this is included in timing belt kit, but it is not..

RM480 + RM390 = T_T

rm480 = timing belt kit (include timing belt, oil seal, bearings, bolts, other belt such as fan belt etc etc)+ labour (RM100)

rm390 = tensioner pulley, is something looks like belting arm where the belt attached with, that technician told me that mine is creating sound louder and louder, and he asked it will have the possibility to cause the belt jammed..don knw true o nt, but finally change...

but for sure, all parts are original from Proton, and they told me beginning from now, if car breakdown due to the timing belt problem, just towed back to SC and they will fix for me, warranty for 80kkm..

luckily water pump still fine, otherwise, need to change too...


..



look at this picture, and timing belt tensioner whole unit that i changed..

not sure if i get conned, so share to here...

yup..timing belt kit is only, oil seal, belt and

the rm390 is the tensioner arm, bt it is whole piece of arm that attached to engine..

here it is the list:

timing belt kit:
- labour -100
- timing belt -135
- drive belt - 70
- timing bearing - 135
- bolt: 7
- seal belt covers: top inner, top, lower inner, lower, lower left hand, lower right hand : 41

Assymetric tensionser acc drive : 390

whole tensioner arm...

damn...

but now my engine is quiter compare to before..

nope..it is not the belt, only the tensioner arm...a metal thingy where the belt is attached and faciliate the movement of the belt..

tensioner arm whole piece...

the belt also changed la..refer to my list there..

Added on October 11, 2011, 8:37 pmto check the IAFM problem, open ur bonnet and ask ur fren to help you to press accelerator 1 second and release...

then u go hear the sound from the engine part, if it is like "breathing" very not smooth, mean the IAFM need to change d..

this is what i saw when the mechanic did on my car when they told me my IAFM need to be replaced..
