laugh.gif no saman yet n insyallah no saman later on oso... coz ill be driving my sister's car for outstation travels..hahaha

cant drive my civic simply bcoz i had a f-ed up night last night... took the car out at about 3am for a quick rempit session on federal highway and while in 4th gear @ 7k RPM...my clutch kaputed...put it in gear and tekan minyak, absolutely nothing...

i can select gears so im pretty sure the gb is still good...plus when my car came out of the workshop a couple of weeks ago mechanic said he feels like my clutch cannot support already.

put in 1st gear... or any gear...release clutch..n nothing...car doesnt move n doesnt stall..clutch pedal feels like normal and all fluids are good...no leaks and no pump failures

was stranded at the side of federal highway for about 30 minutes coz couldnt find the number for tow trucks..plus there were groups of rempits going around....luckily none of them had the "robbing mood"

thankfully a police patrol car came by and i got them to help me out...but it even took them quite a number of calls to get a tow truck for me.

sorry for it bro...thanks god police patrol car came by.... notworthy.gif

Too expensive the Skunk2 Pro Series, there is no Alpha series for K20A.... I just got the S90, will try to install tomorrow if got time.
I had a similar problem, turn out I had a small leak in the pipes.... took I think like 2 weeks to find the source, because by that time so much had leak that there is a blueish green trail from the coolant.

Check everything, especially the joints.

I hope you used coolant and not just water, easier to find with coolant, if water will just evaporate from the hot engine bay.
*
yup got use coolant ....saw it leaking some above from my spare tank there...and behind no idea where especially located behind my radiator fan hmm.gif

QUOTE(zenix @ Aug 24 2012, 10:11 AM)
just my guess rocks hentam ur radiator until got really small holes.
the worst thing is you can't really see it leaking because the holes are small and the water coming out is evaporated by the radiator heat. unless you leave it overnight then see some areas damp.  doh.gif
*
ya bro agree with you....gonna ask my technician to take out and check...but when he use the pressure gauge to check...weird no leaking vmad.gif

QUOTE(unitron @ Aug 24 2012, 11:55 AM)
pour in coolant if haven't done so yet... it will leave residue after the water evaporate to help locate the leak.

Hopefully not leaking into engine..... which means you should check your engine oil also and see any funny color.
*
Hmm check engine oil for some funny colour..??you mean check the dip stick ah bro...??i got use coolant bro till kering no idea fly where d haizzz sweat.gif

Water pump leakage also hard to spot. Esp the pump gear seal, only can realize when you see dried coolant on pump area (mine is blue, BMW coolant lol, was motul before this), unless you don't use coolant additives, then cannot see the colour obviously.
*
GG d lo if so....so whats your recommendation bro...??ask my technician to check where...??i'll ask them to remove my radiator for wash again but before wash will ask to check whether there's any place else leak at radiator....where else bro pls guide ... notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

Usually radiator, but sometimes also heater pipe, the o rings pipe from the water pump to thermostat, sits under the intake. Those are places where it's hard to spot if there is a minor leak.

Also places you might lose water could be the gasket, if you have purging, that might be a cause, but you would also note that your coolant water will be oily or contaminated.

oh ok ok i'll take note of it....thanks for your time bro...i'll try to speak to my technician bout it bro thanks alot boss notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

in 4 months I been spending money on my eg...

1st steering pump, then tie rod end and arm link, after that.. bateri dead (used 3 years) bought a new one (time to change). Last week the alternator kong, when I got the car today, the brake gave up... almost hit a car in front, had to climb the side walk to evade it...

suspected the brake line got air... as the pedal getting lower to the floor to hit the brake.

Bleed it just now and the brake fluid won't come down from the master cylinder reservoir. Suspected the Master cylinder brake, or the booster...
dunno...
to do list

Suspension, Front Upper Arms, Radiator, Cigarette socket, rear antenna (stuck in the middle perhaps the gear wornout),
rear driver side power window motor, front passenger power window switch. Rust on the rear signal lamp as my car always parked at the sea side..

Hope can fix them soon... demn hard to get 'em parts here...
*
