Cruising at high speed (for my wira tongue.gif) at 120-140km/h today saw my temperature gauge rises alarmingly to the red line,.. again, previously already check for leakage but there's no problem, sigh so frustrated with the wira now, thinking of selling it off for a persona or something but i kinda like the wira as well.

Google'd and saw some guy says is the radiator problem, too old or something or the radiator cap, anyone know how much these thing cost?

Well I'm using it right now HEHE. RM250 is consider cheap, last time I bought it around RM290. But there is one fully smoked whereby the headlamp glass came with dark brown color. That want looks great, you can get it at BROTHER shop.

Radiator cap very cheap only ler, no problems
Check for all those things first before the last and most people won't even think of which is a faulty meter cluster XD
Proton is known for that as well

Did you stop or continue driving when reach red-line ?

My case, it reach red line. But I continue drive for >30 minutes. Then it drops back to middle there.
No smoke/steam comes out.
Happens few times a week.
Radiator cap is fine. No radiator water loss/leak. Fans all working.
Finally mechanic says is the VDO meter cluster temperature faulty. I did not change it though.

Yes. It needs pressure to work, but if the seal is leaking, the steam/hot air leaks out, and you will run low on radiator water/coolant.
