QUOTE(xxboxx @ Oct 16 2011, 04:37 PM) not normal. if no problem it won't go above mid-point. Last time serviced jor, radiator cleaning, 1st time change water pump since the first time bought it........better get your car checked.

All juz done since last year only, water lvl checked every month.Check hoses for leaks as well. the point is i speed in high kmh..... normally is under 120kmh but this time i go over that and reach 150kmh....

QUOTE(desertkids @ Oct 17 2011, 01:03 PM) yes, mine 1 also get notice when i stop at rest station after i speed at 170++ haha see how it can last till lo~  , when run at 110 it jz increase a bit, bt let it rest for half hour it will back to normal.No nd repair la, use it n tahan n wait for 2more yrs then change 2new car. i keep repair this old car until boring n decide want change it liao. but right nw it in good condition pula once i got mind to change it... Actually i like to drive wira more than other car. =D Added on October 18, 2011, 10:07 am QUOTE(Alan @ Oct 18 2011, 09:06 AM) Ya... usually temperature will be high when stop after high speed run, and that's why turbo car needs turbo timer. I see i see. in traffic jam definitely will increase since we keep accelerate and break ...... my dad told me that..... Just double check the water/coolant level and lubricant oil level when temperature is abnormal. If the temperature rises during traffic jam, need to check the fan and its' relay. Maybe the radiator efficiency degrades over time as well... so i dun bother much when jam~ =D This post has been edited by alex458: Oct 18 2011, 10:07 AM |

QUOTE(Alan @ Oct 18 2011, 01:06 PM) Errr... usually, the engine temperature wouldn't go high during jam (engine low rev, less heat), unless your radiator fan couldn't spin (with enough water/coolant+functional water pump). Oh... Maybe mine and yours are slightly different abit. Now my temperature goes normal, i guess i can just leave a side for a while sin. =DLast time was my radiator leaking, until the water temperature rise above normal during jam... |

QUOTE(apala @ Oct 25 2011, 10:24 AM) G'day dudes, I see i see. thanks alot for the information~ =DTemperature rise while speeding indicates faulty pipe cooling related to your radiator and piping.Usually clogged pipe due to rust and the ageing. Mine changed the whole pipe and hose comes to about: 1. Water pipe - 45 2.U hose - 12 3. S hose - 12 4. Upper hose - 28 5. Clip hose - 20 @ 2/unit Total - 117.00 if you like you can service your radiator about 70. So you can budget about 200 for the maintenance... Hope this helps...BTW mine is also Wira 94... |
