Agree with you bro... thumbup.gif
I notice the engine oil from my mech shop will decrease till almost min after 3k++ km driving...But when i top it up with the same engine oil i purchase from petrol station, the engine oil level can maintain even after 1k++ km driving...i wonder if my mech is using fake oil or the one i bought from petrol station is fake... price wise both are the same... rclxub.gif

send to lab test RM80 only for comparison.... then u can sue ur mech or ur mech can sue those who supply fake oil.... lab test once will prolong the trust for decades till someone screw it up again

Hello guys,

So recently I got myself a Proton Wira SE 1.5(A) '05. The engine is okay, and the car itself is still in good condition. But my speedometer isn't. Every time I left the car for few hours under the sun (go to class), the speedometer is not working when I drive afterwards. Until only a certain time, will it suddenly jump and show the current speed. Thinking it was the meter cable which is the problem, I had it changed yesterday. But the problem happens again today. What is actually wrong?
*
common problem..... the meter needle sticked to the limiter pole.... dun believe just try to knock the meter sure it will work one hahahaha.....

cause my temperature meter also like this, once i knock it it will be ok adi..
*
normally i open the meter and clean the needle the use paper dip in the oil then lubricate the sticky part of the needle...... after that ok for 2 years

wana ask all sifu here..
my wira every morning when cold start, changing from 2nd gear to 3rd will take a long time..the car will be like without any gear for few seconds..and the RPM will go high since the car is in free gear.
i went to the shop and flush the gear box for once last year for the same problem. and the problem solved.
but now it return back again.
now the mechanic told me need to change gear box and all in will cost me rm1.8k. he said the gear box is used and import from japan.
is there any other solution other than changing a gear box?
my car is 1997 auto 1.5GL.
thanks very much!

I thought both are almost the same 1.5L just that 4g91 is DOHC.. rite? And if not mistaken we can choose what gb we wanna use.. but 1.5L can use 1.6 or 1.8 gb however 1.8 cannot use 1.5 or 1.6 due to wat reason i forgotten.. correct me if i'm wrong as i'm not really sure oso lol blush.gif
*
all can mod vice versa... i did mod my iswara 4G15 to 4G91 auto GB then mod back manual then sell then get 4G93 then mod here n there.... the only different part is drive shaft length...

the last time i changed the spark plug for my 2001 wira, 1.5 auto my mechanic said got carbon. he said that's not a healthy sign..

any sifus here can give some input what he meant? i didnt really ask in detail because at that time I just bought it from my relative.
*
Tell ur mech.... is there any healthy carbon lolsssss...... there is definitely carbon when u use hydrocarbon... onlything is how much was it and where it accumulate.... it is hard to judge from the plug unless your piston rings wear out or smoke at the exhaust signs.... maybe you need to clean with threebond and hit hard to genting to clear some carbon then pour some diesel in the engine oil and run for a moment to flush all the oil carbon etc etc deposits in the engine.

Low used mileage car doesnt mean the car engine is healthy.... i bet it is more hellthy coz i know i just owned 1... hahaha

1. There's no such thing as Mythology LCP. The brand is called Mythelogy, unless you have spotted an imitation.
2. All Mythelogy LCP comes with ONE year warranty and dealers should be able to provide after sales service for ONE year, FOC.
3. The production, distribution, sales and supply of Mythelogy LCP for ALL 4G1x Series has been stopped due to low demand.

- OVER -

p/s: the one in my car has been there for 6 years but it'll stay on the engine, not selling it. =P

Guys, i notice my wira 1.3M throttle response and acceleration is better during the night time. Does installing CAI will help in improving throttle response and acceleration during daytime?
*
night time cold so higher oxygen density + less heat = better combustion = better power

during daytime even CAI wont improve much on slow speed or traffic jam.

Guys.. need help..

My brother's wira 1.6 auto got problem.. i quote "everytime" when in stationary and go to  D gear not engage.. needs change to n,  then D again rev a bit higher then it can run.. (sometimes it took 3 4 times gear change back and forth) until the car behind honking like crazy.. also got problem when stationary on steep hill.. On D the car will rollback.but when the cars start moving to next gear all functioning as it should.
recently he changed gearbox and the warranty had expired already then this problem came. checked the  gear oil still red.. not burned smell...  So i did some googling, reading here and there and come to a conclusion that this might not be the gearbox problem.. but a problem of the "Torque Converter". or maybe i'm wrong?

I saw at mudah, recondition torque converter is around rm300.. so how much will it cost for the installation.. anybody know??
thanks guys..  notworthy.gif
*
FYI Gearbox and Torque converter it is together.... normally Torque converter wears off will result like that. Last time why u change gearbox? any reason? I have Wira 1.6A and i replace halfcut gearbox past 4 years till now ok no problem.... i dun like recond unless i found a reliable recond shop. Mpost Recond shop dont do good job so after a year or 2 it will back to square ones.

This is my personal experience.

Replace torque converter + installation also 1k ++ so i rather replace another tranny.

Its the same thing with brake oil right? I've just got it changed three weeks ago.
When the check engine light comes on, that is when the jerking comes on as well. Either it jerks or the throttle just simply went ineffective. Step on the gas pedal, but no respond. Any similar problems like this you've encountered/heard before dude?
*
Sounds like MAP sensor or Crank sensor.... but wira 1.5MMC no crank sensor except VDO.

what engine type u using? any info?
