i got a few things to get myself busy, my upcoming projects:

1. look into savvy overheating problem , need to check fan motor? is install extra fan necessary? Tomorrow visit a Shah Alam workshop to check. due to over heating, i wanna pay closely to gauges monitoring.

Want to get this elm327 Bluetooth ECU car diagnostic adapter to monitor the performance closely, pretty cool stuff and small investment. But, can anyone confirm if it works for 2007 manual savvy? maybe will go ahead to grab one to test.

2. Sometimes the reverse gear only can get in only after a few tries. Anyone had this problem and found a way to fix it?

3. Clutch cable a bit hard need to check, put some oil to smoothen the left leg press?

4. any good transponder key duplicator model to buy?

5. need to find a good (but not expansive) savvy specialist workshop near Bukit Jalil, Serdang or Puchong. Any recommendation? (other than renaultech and rs auto)

i had the same experience but waited 20 mins and water dried up and refilled a few times along the way and reenter the traffic jam, engine still running after that, however never check if got nescafe color yet

thanks for all the good advice you give.

Has anyone found out that the overheating of savvy might be due to radiator cap not tighten enough? That leads to the water gushed out and evaporated completely.

just as what he pointed out clearly the most overlooked possible cause.

Other than that, fan and thermostat diagnostic as shown, but how many mechanic in malaysia would do what he does? rare gem to find one.

Anyone knows how to deal with issue of rats hiding inside engine and biting cables? honk not working already, cables to engine also got bitten, when turning sterling got sand brushing sound.

Every morning open got chance see the rat sitting on top of the engine. Pour serai liquid on top of engine, but they still hide there. cable connected to engine got chewed by them. I hate rats.

What are your effective methods?

- rat poison, which one effective and where to get?
- engine chemical car wash, wash away smell and traces?

Please recommend effective methods...

anyone interested in a Savvy 2007 MT? around 9k++ nego. Selling spare car due to parking space, otherwise will keep as mechanically in great conditions.

let me guess, automatic transmission fluid.
