Yours is auto/manual ?

My manual 4G15 normally RM70-75 (40L) can go 460-480km, full KL city/Klang Valley driving.
Sometimes light, sometimes heavy foot.

Mine is leaking engine oil at gasket (between top and bottom block).
After replace/repair, no more leaking oil.

My FC is same, whether is leaking oil or not.

Maybe your foot is really heavy tongue.gif

Your RM60 @1.90 = 31.6 L
300km
= 10.5L / 100km

Mine RM75 @1.90 = 39.5 L
470km (avg)
= 8.4L / 100km

Check my siggy @7.7L / 100km which is over 280+ fuel ups (RM20k+ already)
Currently lower mileage due to I drive more aggressive, so the stats are going up.

I just repaired my front and rear bearings left side, drive shaft cover and brake pump. Now can drive with heart at ease.

My fc is alright, considering 4G15 auto. Previously using Shell 95, full tank RM 68 - 70 @ RM 1.90 can only push my mileage up to at most 350km, 320km at average. Now using Petronas 95 seems better, 400+km at most and 380km at average.

i feel got difference, more like different pump give different result. normally i pump Shell, and now some station are changing to a new pump head, which i feel gives more mileage than old pump head. maybe placebo effect gua. tongue.gif

shoot far normally coz adjust the light not high enough. but adjust too high you gonna blind incoming vehicles. how about your headlamp glasses, still crystal clear? could be the bulb also.

nelsonlye, thanks for the price, haven't got time to go check it..

performance and FC become better after top overhaul still depends on how bad your engine condition before doing top overhaul, if your engine s in quite bad shape you'll get much better FC and performance, if engine still good condition performance and FC probably won't feel any difference.

hello guys, did any of you sifoo encounter this problem before?

my grandfather left his car at home for a month and a half. before, i disconnected the battery before he left it.

today, the car is running fine but the aircond is not cold at all. it's like using the blower only.

could it be because we disconnected the battery?

or it's just normal 'running out of ac gas'?

maybe is the gas, or maybe the compressor jammed up.

your engine isn't it Honda engine? here where got people using Honda?? sweat.gif
i don't think engine (check) light coming out is normal in any engine. if stationary and rev the rpm till redline also will come out the check light? maybe should send it to workshop with handheld diagnostic tool and check what is the error code.

Guys, need some help...

i notice whenever i close my driver side door i can hear some "kling kling" sound coming from the front right of my car...
Even sometime when i'm driving i can hear the "kling kling" sound randomly coming from the front right or front left of my car... sad.gif
Its not like super loud...but still noticeable...

Could it be my engine mounting, absorber mounting, suspension system???...Any idea guys... hmm.gif

thx for your reply! really appreciate it coz im still considering whether it could improve WIRA performance.
Honestly, I'm facing a problem when I open air-cond. the power is lower than when it is not.
I think i'm telling a stupid story. But I just want to find a solution.
I haven been looking for few posts and there are many "products" available to improve performance.
But i really hv no idea on them.

My main concern is to main the same power when i step on the oil if i open air-cond.
the grounding cable helps?
Or do you mind gv me any advice please?

Thank You in advance!

sup everybody ! Just curios about absober mounting.. very simple question i guess,
what is the different between Rubber absober mounting and pillow ball upper mounting ??

Rubber VS Pillow ball

and 1 more thing is, is better to just stick with OEM absober or some kind of GAB SA Series absober for Comfort and also slight stability?

hope some one could ease my mind. Thx

Google "lighten crank pulley" and "drop-in air filter" to understand more about it.

u can try install and see...
from wat i notice u can gain more stable power after u install VS & GC...
but not totally noticable if u r refering to with & without air-cond...
as it is one of d most power consuming within a car...

When GC n VC are installed. The voltage drop when high current component starts running, the drop become less visible. But that doesn't mean the load of compressor is gone.

These stuff are meant for stabling the voltage in ur car. Not 'powering up' the car.

installed both VS n GC? wow! how much cost you to do that? any differ? still the same ?
how come when we open air-cod the performance still the same even installed those improvement products?
izzit for voltare stable only? no other functions? if so, voltare stable means wat ni?
TQ

change to lightened crankpulley gives better/noticeable improvement compare to all those VS, grounding cable... high flow drop in air filter is good if u are always lazy to change new air filter... coz oem paper filter gets clogged very easily when they gets dirty... aftermarket filters such as K&N has better "storage" for dirt while maintain optimum air flow through it....

QUOTE(Shortyeyek @ Nov 1 2011, 12:49 PM)
sup everybody ! Just curios about absober mounting.. very simple question i guess,
what is the different between Rubber absober mounting and pillow ball upper mounting ??

Rubber VS Pillow ball

and 1 more thing is, is better to just stick with OEM absober or some kind of GAB SA Series absober for Comfort and also slight stability?

hope some one could ease my mind. Thx

oem absorber mounting... notice the rubber inside??... the rubber absorbs all the vibration from ur suspension and wheel.... now compare it with a pillowball mount...

user posted image

it is just a spherical bearing holding ur absorber... it does not absorb any vibration and harshness...

pros, adjustability of the pillowball mount (camber plate) allows more camber angle, which improves handling and turn-in response...

cons, more NVH.... (noise, vibration, harshness)

Just went to goggle on the LCP. Seems like it's a bad idea to use it for long run. Because it is lacking the dampener which is used to absorb vibration. Hence the bearing will prematurely fail.

Gain acceleration and losing a bearing? That's a sure no no for me.

Balancing the engine still cannot avoid having vibration caused by cylinder explosion kua. And that explosion the one causing the damage.

long run means how many years later??... i bet before the bearing fails, ur engine might already need overhaul... prolly piston ring will go first??... well, just an estimation... nowadays people change car like change clothes... most of them will not see their car age for 10-20 years under their hand....

Hello fellow Wira drivers, I'm having a problem possibly faced by all the old Wira drivers... My year 2000 Wira auto 1.5 engine shakes and dies easily.

Brief descriptions:

1) When car is idle(N), engine shakes badly and is on the verge of dying, usually it dies when I change to D and step on the pedal too heavily, I have to accelerate slowly otherwise it will most probably die.
2) The engine doesn't shake when the car is moving, only when you slow down and idle.
3) To my experience of driving this car the engine shouldn't shake when I change to (N) when I stop at traffic light etc, but now even when it is on N it still shakes badly and seems like it is going to die.
4) Problem seems to be less serious when I turn off the air conditioner, although it still shakes a lot even when gear is on N, which did not happen last time.
5) I have noticed a slightly sluggish acceleration too.

Anyone experienced this before? Any solutions?

long run means how many years later??... i bet before the bearing fails, ur engine might already need overhaul... prolly piston ring will go first??... well, just an estimation... nowadays people change car like change clothes... most of them will not see their car age for 10-20 years under their hand....
last time using fully syn... very shiok but too expensive in long run... so now i use semi syn... sad.gif
i do sell both of those... PM me if u are interested...
yes they are totally legal... considered very light modification...

I think it's more expensive than that. Original should cost rm700. Second grade at 3 to 400. Can't really remember. If change the isc only, I think is below 100. Can someone tell me if my figure is wrong.

Greetings and Salam perkenalan to all Wira owners here at LYN.

I use to be from the Kancil subforum and thanks to my sis, I now own her 2003 Wira. My introductory post here comes with a question too. Here goes:

What is the spark plug gap for the 4G15 engine? The owner's manual only states the spark plug model and there's no recommended gaps. Nothing definite comes up on Google except the line saying "larger gaps fuel injected engines". Really? A computer controlled system means the gap ain't important anymore?

So to those [abang2 dan kakak2] who knows what to put into the engine, please let me know. And my uncle passed me a set of spark plugs without a built-in resistor. doh.gif

Thanks!

Hello fellow Wira drivers, I'm having a problem possibly faced by all the old Wira drivers... My year 2000 Wira auto 1.5 engine shakes and dies easily.

Brief descriptions:

1) When car is idle(N), engine shakes badly and is on the verge of dying, usually it dies when I change to D and step on the pedal too heavily, I have to accelerate slowly otherwise it will most probably die.
2) The engine doesn't shake when the car is moving, only when you slow down and idle.
3) To my experience of driving this car the engine shouldn't shake when I change to (N) when I stop at traffic light etc, but now even when it is on N it still shakes badly and seems like it is going to die.
4) Problem seems to be less serious when I turn off the air conditioner, although it still shakes a lot even when gear is on N, which did not happen last time.
5) I have noticed a slightly sluggish acceleration too.

Anyone experienced this before? Any solutions?
*
at what rpm the engine starts shaking??... if it shakes at around 800rpm, check ur engine mounting... if it shakes at around 500rpm, retune ur idling rpm...

Just change the ISC Gear won't solve the problem....cost less then RM100...

FICD is the only option...i had totally disabled the ISC Gear...and just run on FICD.....

oem absorber mounting... notice the rubber inside??... the rubber absorbs all the vibration from ur suspension and wheel.... now compare it with a pillowball mount...

user posted image

it is just a spherical bearing holding ur absorber... it does not absorb any vibration and harshness...

pros, adjustability of the pillowball mount (camber plate) allows more camber angle, which improves handling and turn-in response...

cons, more NVH.... (noise, vibration, harshness)
*
Thanks cata ! now it really ease my mind.. haha.. so i should stick with the rubber mount which wont cause alot of noise due to the fraction between the metal part.. and with stock absober because it would be more comfortable due to malaysia road got alot of hole.. Thank again..

i don't think can last that long ba. maybe it still not worn out coz the brake not gripping enough? maybe get the rear brake component serviced and bleed the brake fluid.

my brake still functional when checked it. Got service and bleed the brake fluid also. My foreman said my brake still usable no need change...
Just don't know why can last so long... maybe my brake pump bias too little brake force for the rear.

when change brake pump, the mechanic got bleed out the fluid or not?
most probably there is air in the fluid line, either coz not bleed out or there's leakage on the hose/somewhere.

Sent to service centre and they said my Wira is using a newer version of throttle body which cannot be cleaned(?)... and they suspect it might not be throttle body problem, in the end, changed my engine mounting (full set), any comments on the prices:

1 x Exhaust Bullet RM 90: No idea what's this for.
1 set of plug cables RM75: He said this is stuck and spoilt/no longer functional which will affect acceleration, indeed my car accelerates faster now.
4 units/1 set of engine mounting RM330 (included all labour fees): Really solved the vibration issue... doesn't even vibrate now when changed to D and step on brake to hold the car

you can try google it, sure can find the picture and information of how it works. smile.gif

if no loss of brake fluid then maybe there is air trapped inside the hose, ask your mechanic to bleed it out.

Bumper can be anywhere from 150 - 300 or more. Paint should be about 200.

not really. ECU relies on MAF or MAP sensor then use the predetermine map for fuel ratio, O2 sensor will let the ECU know if it need to re-adjust the fuel map. older car that don't have the O2 sensor will just run on the predetermine map and can't re-adjust the fuel map.

blush.gif after consider sooo sooo long, finally, i get myself a new pair of original bosch headlamps. no regrets! brightness are much better than after market audi /bmw style... =) good choice i made.. haha
\anyway, after consult our brother linage, i switch to Q8 10W40 from mobile 10W40! WOW!!! no regrets!!! supreme acceleration n fuel saving.. my car can only run around 6.5+-km/L lastime, but with tis Q8, i manage to get 10.9km/L from Klang-perak(average speed 140km/h, max 165km/h), 9.7km/L for city + highway! =) omg!! i'm in love with tis engine oil.. haha.. =)

"edit" i drive like a mad man  blush.gif seriously, i'm gonna hold back my top overhaul plan becoz of tis  10W40 Q8 brows.gif

no need to go for 1.6 set (cost more as you'll need the whole clutch assembly including flywheel). Opt for ordinary Aisin clutch - cheaper and more comfortable.

I've once use a race clutch (triniti 6 pucks) with exedy clutch cover with lightened flywheel. Damn it was overkill.. The car trembles as the clutch plate doesn't have spring damper..lol. After a month (less than 1000km), I replace it with exedy clutch plate (keeping the clutch cover). Clutch still feel hard but less shaking (still overkill in traffic jam). after 2 years of heavy clutching, the clutch cover started to give way - it knock onto the bearing each time I release the clutch. Hence, last week, I changed a new ordinary Aisin clutch set but after fitting it, I realized the clutch could not fully depressed - found out that the flywheel was too thin.. so, a new flywheel was fitted.. Now, I have a light clutch and I love it thumbup.gif

change clutch cannot gain power... only can release some power...
if plans to use 1.6 supertouring flywheel, u probably need to skim it to gain more acceleration... if just plug and play, u will lose acceleration but gain slight top speed due to its mass heavier than ur original 1.3/1.5 flywheel....

what disc brake pad are u guys using now? I prefer low dust....
I tried the Ceramic NAO brake pad from one of the forumer here. The brake pad very grip, but can't last long. Sometimes it will have braking noise a bit.
Now looking for some other nice brake pad to try.

hi bro, you might wanted to aware of the dented curve there...it might look fine now....but after sunlight and heat that area will bubble out themself soon....if you have a perfect sticking(no poking bubles)..recommend you seal the sticker edge with solder so it is sealed

just my 2 cent experience smile.gif

Oh. Urs is the same spec as mine. One cost 175. Kruizer is meant for highway drive. I believe the silicone compound is the one that give its grip on wet surface.

Don't get the MY-01, having it now but it doesn't really grip well after awhile.
But it depends la what kinda brake setup you're using as well.smile.gif

there is no fixed price for such repair coz it will depends on what parts need to be changed. workmanship can be around RM200. your last cylinder could also loss compression because your piston ring have worn out, thus will need a full overhaul job.

do you mean can see the part where it leaked out? top overhaul can only fix leaking valve seal and any leaking at gasket. if your leaking due to piston ring, you will need to do full overhaul.

The labour cost is depends. Last time I got charged rm30 or 50. Forget already. Need to turun bumper. Make sure is glass type. If the water mist goes in. Can exchange for a new one. Fren said can settle by putting silicone glue la. but what the heck, i bought it new wat.

engine oil seem decrease after driving is because the oil all have gone up lubricating the engine component, only some left in the oil pan. but if you mean tis morning check oil lvl ok, drive a lot, tomorrow morning check oil lvl decrease a lot, then got problem lor.

i guess so, otherwise why the manufacturer decide it's the MINIMUM line. but i would at least maintain it at middle as precaution especially if the engine oil always keep decreasing.

you driving sedan or aeroback bro? 1.3/1.5/1.6/1.8?

same problem as mine - replaced throttle body's ISC but that did not solve the problem permanently. It came back after a few month. Hard to start engine back when the aircond switch is on because battery lack of juice or not strong enough (also happen to me).

hi Sifuz,

I need your advice. Am currently driving a 1.5GL ..
early this year i changed my rims to a 195/55/15.. and recently, i noticed that each time i fetch ppl at the back, the spacing between my wheel and the wheel arch is only 1finger.. if 2 bigger size passengers sit, even without moving, you will know it'll surely scrap the arch if on the move d.

So now, i'm thinking of changing my rear springs & abs as it's been a while d.. went to the shop, the guy recommended me to change front and rear to 1.6's springs. said is stiffer..

But what i read is that if 1.5GL use 1.6 front springs & abs, the front will be higher as the engine is lighter than 1.6.. I duwan my car too high though :S

So now i'm having a dilemma,
1. sud i change front to 1.6 springs?
2. rear 1.6 springs more stiffer but same height, is it true?

Or can you guys tell me ur experience and what springs you use to overcome this issue?

Budget is normal springs, fren suggested adjustables, but too exp :S
Thanks sifuz !

if your problem only is rear tyre scrapping the arch, you can consider putting rubber bushing on top of the back spring. behind will be higher a bit than before.

I asked the mechanic..he say just need to open the cover..after replacing the valve seal maybe need to adjust something (i think is the valve if i'm not mistaken, forget already, asked him too many thing)...He say it will only took around 2 hours++ for the job...He said there is no leaking from my gasket so he recommend me just replace the valve seal...

hi guys, I've just replaced my car battery coz its old. 5 years old in fact...anyway I need to check with you guys if the batt is correct coz I'm being told two different things by different mechanics.

This is the old batt...can't confirm the model

This is the new batt...NS60S
user posted image

as you can see...the position of the connectors are different, so is the size of the batt. Which one do you guys think is correct?

Urmm...this involved a lot of thing bro. Your suspension is one thing, your engine also another thing.

Can't be 40L only, otherwise I have to push my car many times already. laugh.gif

Maybe different model got different tank capacity?

My car having difficulties of moving forward (gear D) early in the morning. When I shift to D and press gas, the car not moving. Only RPM jumps up. Sometimes I need to push the car in gear D and upon moving then only I jump in. Any idea ? Gear box or ATF ? This happens to D, 2 or L but only in the morning like cold start. R no problem.

Wira is 50L tank.

I used to drive until low-fuel lights always on. Then refill between 39L-45L.

hi Sifuz,

I need your advice. Am currently driving a 1.5GL ..
early this year i changed my rims to a 195/55/15.. and recently, i noticed that each time i fetch ppl at the back, the spacing between my wheel and the wheel arch is only 1finger.. if 2 bigger size passengers sit, even without moving, you will know it'll surely scrap the arch if on the move d.

So now, i'm thinking of changing my rear springs & abs as it's been a while d.. went to the shop, the guy recommended me to change front and rear to 1.6's springs. said is stiffer..

But what i read is that if 1.5GL use 1.6 front springs & abs, the front will be higher as the engine is lighter than 1.6.. I duwan my car too high though :S

So now i'm having a dilemma,
1. sud i change front to 1.6 springs?
2. rear 1.6 springs more stiffer but same height, is it true?

Or can you guys tell me ur experience and what springs you use to overcome this issue?

Budget is normal springs, fren suggested adjustables, but too exp :S
Thanks sifuz !

There is no comparing the 1.5L auto (3 gear) with other auto or manual gearbox. It 'makan' a lot of fuel.

Before I get my 1.5GLi, I loaned an old 1.6XLi auto gearbox for few months (4 gears + OverDrive?). I can tell you the fuel consumption is REALLY bad. I get about 6-7km/L, which my 1.5GLi get 12-14km/L

And I am not even heavy-footed on the XLi at that time. I would rate this 1.6XLi gearbox as same 'makan minyak' as the 1.5 auto-box.

For those curious to know how much fuel is left when you reach that bottom bar for Wira, ...
YES, it can go much lower than that. I've shared/posted it before. Refer Post #2388 in previous thread of (LYN-PWC) V-XXVI rolleyes.gif

a lot of rattling. tongue.gif
many parts in the cabin is loose already, haven't bothered to repair it yet.

for the outer parts, try check all the bushings. worn out bushing normally will result of funny sounds when driving or going over bump/pothole. last time my mechanic don't really want to change my front stabilizer bar bushing, maybe coz it was quite hard to reach. after a lot of pestering he finally change it and it solved the "thunk" sound everytime going over bump/pothole.

if always revving high, always check engine oil is adequate. and don't extend the time to change oil also use good quality oil.

hi guys,

Q8 semi-syn 10w40 or Eneos (Semi Synthetic) SM/CF 10W40 where to buy qenuine in KL? How much is the pricing? i heard alot of fake oil merchant. I need do to servicing soon.

Im a wira 1.5L Auto sedan driver. Year of manufacture 2000 iinm but recently i encounter gearbox problem when during early morning or cold mode whereby slow response between 2 to 3 gears. Its like gear not shifting but the rpm rev until 2~3k. Its delay shifting about 3 sec. after that, its shifting as usual.

Back in years May 2010 i encounter GB problem also whereby its wont shift gear from 2~3. Getting worst day by day. All foremen said gearbox problem but when i decided to change gearbox the day it run fine. Therefore the foremen said try change back to original ATF and new filter which last me about 1.5 years until last week i decided to change ATF oil again but it wont solve the problem i encounter when GB in cold mode but slightly better in response. The delay is shorten by 1 sec. This time i use Toyota T-IV atf oil as requested by me.

guys i just noticed that my 1994 Wira 1.6XLi is having some problem with the aircond and temperature.

my air cond is usually very cold and comfortable but jz now somehow it started blowing air only when my car is stationary and my temperature will be only one bar below the red line.

the air cond will only be cold again when i start moving followed by the temperature reading reduced.

anyone experience this before?

need to check your radiator fan first. Because when driving at high rpm, engine will be hotter than usual. When ECU detected higher temperature than normal, it will cut off aircon compressor. Sometimes it cause by waterpump also.

For old car, my mechanic advise not to use semi/full synthetic oil. Stick to mineral. As it is less chance for it to get into combustion chamber and 'eat oil'

After top overhaul, then he says ok to switch back to semi/full.

Not sure on the truthfulness though hmm.gif

to confirm,just remove ur cigar lighter and check using bulb or multimeter..there is only 2 wires positive and negative..
if u get ~12.6v(the bulb lights up),means supply is ok and the cigar lighter itself is faulty..

I`m using a year 2000 wira 1.6 AT
The other day my car broke down and one of the valve had cracked,
replaced it already.
But now im not very confident with the car for long distance drive
I travel to kl at least once a month.
Is it time to change the car as its nearing 12year, or will a overhaul allow the car to run another 3 years?

My car is 17 years old, still running strong.
overhaul and change all the worms parts, surely the car will continue serving you for few more years.

Full overhaul depends on what parts need to be replaced, safe to assume it might cost 2k plus.

Mine travelling for more than 3k km every month. laugh.gif
If you travel for 500km per trip, try to take a 10 minutes rest every 100 or 150km. Both the car and yourself need the rest. smile.gif

Heard 4G13 block wall is not thick enough to use 4G18 stroker kit. Need to use 4G15 block. I think only few hundreds for empty block.

But you say high rpm when cruising at that speed. That is not because of engine, but your gearbox ratios. 1.3 gearbox have smaller ratios than 1.5. Mine is worse, at 120km/h, my rpm is at 4k. tongue.gif


nelsonlye, wah target so high boost. Sure the block can withstand it? Normally heard people only boost 0.5 for SOHC 92..

Have to upgrade so much, is it still worth it to use 92 engine? I think after upgrade everything the cost is about the same or more than buying 93T or 67 engine.

Definitely can settle as long as your engine doesn't go above the 25% rule from the original capacity

shouldn't be a problem gua, coz you just change the engine, some more same type of engine with other 1.5 Wira. they just check the engine number at the block, they don't see your gearbox or your engine head.

any of u guy replace the oxygen sensor before? Some car manufacturers advised to replace the sensor at certain mileage.

Btw, I suspecting my MAP sensor there is having some leakage at high RPM. Foreman told me the plastic at the sensor might already crack and need to replace it. My sensor is a VDO sensor, not sure where to look for it besides going to Proton. unsure.gif

but u can try climb behind...open de "door lever" that screw and open a bit of the "door skin"...then if u know how to open door using a ruler or screwdriver by "lifting the lever" then open the door first...only fix the spring..

mine the spring i fix RM20..haha

Damn JiaLat.......some more the rear driver side door i always open n close to put my stuff....kns...

Errr...of course i dont know how to open using ruler lo.......hehe...

Let see how to get the door open first...then only see how to do....
