Hi guys,

My gf's viva has this buzzing sound.... one of her friends told her that it's her "alternator" problem... Any idea of it? And if that's the case, how much will it cost to fix or replace it?

Thanks in advance for the answer guys notworthy.gif

i'm not sure what is the buzzing sound to be honest.

but, i can tell you how to check the 'alternator'.

you start the engine, then you disconnect the battery. if the engine is still running while the battery is disconnected, the alternator is just fine. so, you might want to check on something else.

however, if the engine stalled once the battery is disconnected, yes, the alternator is kaput already.

hope that helps.

alternator will cost you around 300-400 perhaps? it could be more as i'm not sure. might want to call the spare part shop. if the car is no more under warranty, get the alternator from outside spare part shop and let your mechanic install it.

probably can be more specific bro.

if its squeaking noise could be v-belt issue. very minor only.
when u are at the mechanic, get him to check the belt if there is any misalignment or belt run off/out of the pulley.

had this problem once where the belt run off the pulley by 1 'gigi'.

Ok guys need help here.

While the ignition is off I accidentally turned my steering wheel, causing it to lock. Now I can't even turn my key to start the engine.

How do I unlock it?

you have to turn the steering wheel a little bit and not let it get 'stuck' if you know what i mean. sort of holding the steering wheel off the 'lock' point and then turn the key.

from the look of it, you can solve it with just polish. buy them at hardwre store and spend an hour or two polishing the driver's door or half day for the whole car and it will be better. flex.gif

Why is the stock suspension so freaking high?

Also, what are the benefits of UR bars? Does it cost a lot to fix?

Also.. more questions.

Prior to driving my new Viva I had been driving a relatively old Wira for 3 years.

So here's my experience driving Viva as compared to driving a Wira:
1. The car feels so damn high.
2. The rides feel "stiff" or "hard", as in I can feel every single tiny bump or uneven surface on the road. I'm very used to the smooth rides in my old Wira.
3. Taking corner feels like my car can topple anytime.

As I'm a complete noob when it comes to car matters, can anyone tell me the reasons to my points above? What I can do to the car to make the experience better?

bro, u cannot compare viva with wira..
viva is just a small town car, zippy car for u to move around town.. where else wira is more of a family sedan..

although wira is considered an aging car, its still a good car compared to its rivals!!

the only way u can "slightly" improve the handling is to add in:
- front strut bars
- rear anti-roll bar
tht's enough, more than the above its too much already.

What is the tire size you're looking for?

For a new pair of 14" tires, they won't exceed RM300 for both, you can get RM300 including installation and balancing even at some shop.

New car and I ran over a pothole and busted a tyre cry.gif Went to a shop and changed it. RM 160 including balancing. Did I get ripped off? Granted it was close to 11pm when the shop was closing.

Do you think my suspension system is damaged? Going to do alignment tomorrow. What should I know not to get ripped off?

get 15" rims width not more than 6.5JJ (ideal would be 5.5JJ or 6JJ) offset not more than +45 or lesser than +35.

tyre size 165/50/15

sport spring GAB or equivalent will give u 1-2 finger front, 3 finger rear.

Total cost depends on your rims. Cheap rims cost less than 1k, tyres will cost around 600-700 for 4 pieces. sport spring around 200++ bucks.

less than 2k can get u the setup u want..

if budget really low, look for 2nd hand stuff. shld cost around 1k only all in

on 14s the car also feel like breaking apart.. cant believe if its on 15s + lowered suspension..
Oooh, what's the correlation between rim size and suspension height to handling? Smaller rim size and higher suspension means better handling?

to me i think 14s is already good enough. if u still want to improve the handling + looks, just get it lowered a bit via sports suspension...

14" is nice enough.. if you want you can push it 15" but seriously, you ride will be hard as rock lol.

hi, pls take note on the yellow circle section. tht's the abs pump..
so most likely your EZ do not have that..

as for the ABS logo, i think all viva share the same common meter panel..

Added on April 9, 2012, 10:32 pmthis is my Problem :
1.High Fuel comsumption (RM50 for less than 230km)
2.'Speed-cut?' (before this my car can easily archived 120-130km/h...but now from 80-120km/h also hard ><)
3. Engine vibration (mounting changed still shaking)

Mod:
engine..
Redline drop in filter
Simota small air breather
Denso Iridium IK20
Eneos 5w-30
Motul ATF
(other all stock)

Exhaust..
3-1 extractor
2" flexible pipe(nanas)
2" inlet bullet (10-11" body)
2" S-flow Muffler
piping all 1.6"

electronic..
Pivot stabilizer + grounding (2years)
New battery changed no longer
TPS jus changed to new one

Others
15"swift rim + 175/50/15 dunlop tyre.
*
what is the small air breather for? try removing it..

as for the exhaust, are u using stock J pipe or change already?
almost similar to my setup except, mine is all 1.6"
0-100kmph takes some time, but 100kmph onwards very rev friendly, can climb very fast till 160kmph then i scared to go further

i tink your bullet, muffler and flexi, if possible change to 1.6" instead of 2"

however i found a better setup. change all to 1.5" piping and use 1 bullet only. i havent try this setup yet but confirmed can improve pickup and shift power band to low end pickup.

and also, try cleaning your throttle body. would definitively help alot

as for your fuel consumption its quite bad. mine rm50 can go minimum 280km to 300km++ with my modifications. my guess is your exhaust setup causing FC to increase.

as for engine vibrate, all 3 cylinder engine memang vibrate like hell wan. however, new mounting shld help to bring the vibrations back to the time when the car is still new


Added on April 10, 2012, 12:10 ambtw my mods are similar to yours;

Currently experiencing rough idling.. At times when aircond & compressor is off, will drop below 1k till about 500rpm, engine vibrates like hell.. So i have to keep my aircond on to prevent it

Whoa that's some excellent FC. Mine is about 350km per full tank (always fill up once the last bar is reached and the petrol icon blinks). I pump Shell RON95... Does the brand of fuel make any difference? What do you use? Granted my mileage so far is less than 3k.

When the light blink,I still run for another 70KM but you don't try it if you not so sure about your FC. I also pump Shell Ron95. I think because I regular service my car , so that why this is what I get.

FYI,for the first 2 years I got my car, I was pumping V-Power Racing fuel into my Viva lou po chai. Even those ppl pump oil beside me also stunned awhile laugh.gif , the feeling they look at me is AWESOME ..

bro, i dont think that is the correct way of resetting ECU.

Proper way is to remove your battery terminals (just remove the -ve terminal will do) for about 30min - 1hr or so, then plug it back in after that.
Start your engine and dont rev, leave it running for 5-10 minutes then turn off your engine. After resetting, just drive normally and try not to rev and hentam the engine kau kau. let it adapt to your modifications or changes for few days then see if there is any difference in FC.

usually happens no power when hot weather, and got power when night time and cold weather right? haha!

thats because of the air temperature. colder air sucked into engine = more powah! rclxms.gif

For the UR bars i install stage by stage..the came to one point ive install most of them already..
The car feels a bit stiff and nimble in conners..
In ur case i suggest go for anti roll bars..

easy and free method is :
1. check your battery connections, make sure they are tighly connected and is not dirty.

or else, just like chrislyv said. clean your TB. did you service your car as per schedule?

yours is viva auto 1.0 with ABS or not? EZi?

if EZi, it has ABS equipped. with stock tyres, your ABS will surely kicks in even if the road is dry.

if not, do like what chrislyv said. skim your disc smile.gif

your disc rotor bengkok already. need to skim or go and claim new one if car still under warranty. however, this problem will persist few months later even after changing new one. this is due to low quality solid disc rotor by perodua.

to permanently solve this, change to aftermarket brake rotor like brembo or improve brand. price Rm200 and below for 2 pieces.

guys, hypothetically if you were to buy auto viva which one will you go for?

- normal viva auto
- viva elite auto
- viva elite exclusive edition

is it really worth the extra money?

You do know that the last 2 options you wrote there come with 1.0L only right ?

If you do, then ask yourself these :
1. What do you need it for?

Short distance without the need of extra features and safety features and to save money = go for normal one.

Short distance with skirting but without safety features = elite auto EZ. (EZi is full spec with safety features and everything.

Exclusive = if you don't mind spending the huge amount of money on a viva. (The money for exclusive can give you a saga with bigger space,bigger boot,more power engine, more stable on highway and long journey.

Hai gais!

Viva 1.0 Auto reporting here. I've been much of a reader here in the Viva thread so I think it's about time my car left me puzzling mysteries for me to ask the sifus here laugh.gif

My viva is tend to tilt to the driver side, it did tilt before and after I changed to GAB lowered springs. I was wondering if any of you encounter the same thing as me? I know the both rear will go "tenggelam" eventually but this one is more tilting to one side. Is it the shocks?

Yes, it's tilting to the driver's side. No matter in what motion the car is on it's still tilting. I measured the gap between the front left and the front right fenders it didn't match. The right side more like 1 finger, the passenger 2. And for some weird reason the car makes a very annoying squeaky metal noise when I go over harsh roads and speed bumps.

Any thoughts? Shocks? Worst to worst it's a bent chassis sweat.gif

that is your absorber mounting kaput. have the front pair change. i suggest to use Myvi absorber mounting. RM120 if i'm not mistaken, that's from Perodua SC.

slight tilt on the drviers side is normal. reason bcoz driver side always hav weight on it "driver" vs passenger side.

so pls dun simply change parts.. hav a trusty/regular mechanic check ur mounting, shocks & etc...

but.. dont tell him on the tilt issue 1st.. aft checking only ask him..

Guys, I have a few question on the viva 660 manual. Sometimes when my sister drives the car, if you release the clutch fast while accelerating, you get a few knock sound coming from the front.

Could it be a faulty driveshaft or CV joint?

faulty drive shaft is usually accompanied by a short "whining" sound during cornering

not too sure bout cv joints though. so far only had to replace drive shaft boot due to oil leaking out

Spent almost 1k changing everything today. Kena conned by this spare part shop. They told the engine mounting is Daihatsu (Thailand) so I went with it. Sent to workshop they said it's not sad.gif Just went with it and replaced everything Engine & Absorber mount, Brake Pads, Timing Belt & Water Pump. Now car idles at a constant RPM and everything feels like new! rclxms.gif Except for when put in reverse, still vibrate like hell.

Most of the engine noise is coming from the heat shield for the extractor. So he just tightened it with some new screws. Which initially I thought was caused by the worn Engine Mount. Okaylah, almost reach major service anyway hehe.

10k oil got, can use fully synthetic oil. just make sure the oil rating is 5w30
5k oil is semi-synthetic

what did you mean by driving experience ? i do feel a little more stable than my old 14' elite rims tho. but that could be due to the fact that i've got UR bars installed for the whole car and also GAB spring. hmm.gif

That is an old pic, haven't taken latest pic yet.
The black thing is insuflex, got some still sticking on it, I haven't remove it. Last time I put insuflex on cai hose, some sticked onto the strut bar. Can be removed nicely no worries.

last time bought new from speedworks PJ jalan 222 for rm 200+

rims was around RM899 back in Jan 2011. tires, it depends on what tires do you want to use nod.gif .

UR bars? here is the rough price estimation

Rear Anti Roll Bar - RM330
Fender Bar - RM250
Rear Strut Bar - RM160
Front Strut Bar - RM160
Front Lower Bar - RM200
Rear Lowr Bar - i forgot rclxub.gif

you can't use that price because it's not the same to every shop sir smile.gif.

the suspension setup, i'm using stock absorber with GAB sport spring. i don't know how much is the GAB sport spring as i got mine for super duper brother's price from a friend of mine. mr ilyas_james rclxm9.gif

i see you spending more than RM2k for these alone.
whats the significant difference after this upgrade? if backseat two adults and going over curb the tire will hit or not?

anyway, very aggressive looking viva. nice. rclxms.gif

Guys, just to confirm, Viva fuel capacity is 36 liter right?

Got my car last week and the salesman pumped full tank for me. Today I noticed the fuel left 3 bar.

Pumped RM 30 but the bar only increases 2/3 bar. Is it because of new car or?

one thing for sure. once the fuel gauge indicator starts blinking, pump in RM50 and you will get balance <RM10. (current RON95 fuel price smile.gif )

Today, my petrol meter started to blink and I continued to drive for about 4KM to fuel station. Pumped RM 30 and petrol meter shoes 1/2 tank.

Just shared my first time petrol fueling experience.

According to my salesman before handing over the new Viva to me, he said that to install buzzer only cost RM 50 at Perodua Service Centre (if your car is still under warranty).

after blinkling is save to go for atleast another 30km city driving.
if the moment it blinks you go pump RM 50 will be full bars.

i always took the risk cause nearby my house a lot of petrol stations and only once it completely ran out refill with 1.5 litre mineral bottle. sweat.gif

Based on 36L tank, a full tank at RM1.90/L should be RM68.40 assuming the tank is completely empty right?

500KM for a full tank is definitely very good FC. Thanks WhiteWing for sharing, I got my new VIVA a week ago, at 380km still have 2 bars left scared it might be empty soon to refuelled, hence not knowing exactly how much further it can go.

once it starts to blink, people say it can go up to 40km. i havn't test this.

but, i can assure you that it is more than safe to stretch it all the way to 20-25km smile.gif.

hahaha. i know my car. but the fear of stranded on the side of the road especially my usual route is kinda 'empty and far from anything else' came to me the moment the light started blinking.

anyway, my friend's stock standard manual elite 1.0L went all the way to 44km after the fuel started blinking before the engine started 'jerking'. hahaha.

Yes, I've experienced this the moment the car about to stop. I quickly shift from D4 to N (just to avoid engine stall suddenly)...

Accelerate I don't know. If idle maybe the timing belt unsure.gif

There were lots of sound before I sent my car for major service. When I put my car in "R" got lots of clanking noises coming from the engine bay. Had the mechanic checked it out, it was the heatshield that cover the extractor was loose. Just screw it back in tightly, now no more rclxms.gif

Hi guys!

I am driving a Viva 1.0 auto. Whenever I drive along the highway passing 100kmph (or sometimes 90kmph), I could sense that my car would 'sway' slightly to the left and right, as if the car is going against the wind very hard.

I never lowered my ride but I did changed the rim and tyres to 14'inch. I regularly service my car with a mechanic and I already did balancing and alignment twice, but the problem still appears.

Is it because the car is too light? Should I consider lowering my ride? Is there any BIG difference if we lowered our car?

Please advise. Thanks!

Don't drive too fast with viva la tongue.gif. Haha.

Anyway, my current setup is :
- 15"x6.5jj with 175/50/R15
- GAB sport spring
- stock absorber

I can still feel the 'sway' problem in high speed although it's less compared to stock.


Added on May 17, 2012, 1:15 pm100-130kmh is more stable. But still if any big lorry or buses i overtook or they overtook me on highway, my car will still be thrown to the other side sad.gif

I bought the parts myself and sent it to workshop. Lots of imitations, including Perodua's. The guy from Raydiance Motorsport told me the important part is the back mounting, the rest is fine. Never buy cheap brand mounting just because it's a tad cheap. Learned it the hard way sweat.gif Estimation under 1k with labour I guess.

Maybe it's the mounting. I changed my mounting weeks ago and it seems to get rid of the problem. Might be because they disassemble the battery also, hence resetting the ECU. I simply can't say, that's my theory lah tongue.gif

Hi guys!

I am driving a Viva 1.0 auto. Whenever I drive along the highway passing 100kmph (or sometimes 90kmph), I could sense that my car would 'sway' slightly to the left and right, as if the car is going against the wind very hard.

I never lowered my ride but I did changed the rim and tyres to 14'inch. I regularly service my car with a mechanic and I already did balancing and alignment twice, but the problem still appears.

Is it because the car is too light? Should I consider lowering my ride? Is there any BIG difference if we lowered our car?

Please advise. Thanks!

What brand of tyres are you using? I noticed after I put on 165/50/15 Falken Azenis (Indonesian made) on my 15x7jj they car sways more than my previous tyres too which was I think Falken Zeix 165x55x14 on 14x6jj. I got a feedback from a friend he sold his Falken Azenis just after 3 days because it sways too much sweat.gif

Oh and hey!

Who here wanted to buy my 14x6jj Black TE37 with red lining coupled with Falken tyres? Still got lots of threads on this one. Can PM me rclxms.gif

I experienced it for the first time at Wednesday at Penang Bridge. Thought my car tyre puncture lol.. After I slow down then I don't feel it anymore.

Btw, my car is nearing the 1 month period and I planned to send my car for service/check up at the Authorized SC. Any payments that I need to be prepared of?

Last time I asked the shop under my office (which is also a forumer here) selling promotion Trans brand speakers. Specially for viva they will make a custom wooden housing to separate the speakers from the door.
I bought the parts myself and sent it to workshop. Lots of imitations, including Perodua's. The guy from Raydiance Motorsport told me the important part is the back mounting, the rest is fine. Never buy cheap brand mounting just because it's a tad cheap. Learned it the hard way  sweat.gif Estimation under 1k with labour I guess.

if it sways when u hit a small bump on the road OR going thru bumpy road, u are experiencing bumpsteer
usually associated to cars that are lowered and very apparent for Kcars such as kelisa, kenari and our viva also have this.
can be countered if u adjust the height back to stock height or u can custom bumpsteer kit at RCS sunway (would be expensive i suppose as there is no aftermarket bumpsteer kit for viva)

for those with stock car, stock car height and rims, if u experience sway when driving on highway it could be due to tyre pressure imbalance.
get your tyre pressure checked and balanced and u shld be fine.

i think its better to bring to audio shop and let them handle it rather than DIY bro

just my 2 cents. anyways, if the back part of the speaker *magnet or sumting* is too huge , usually the audio shop would get a custom enclosure for the door panel to fit the speaker.

Anyone here got any experience installing Hot Bits Injection kit with Heat Shield? And some Lightened Crank Pulley? I can't seem to find them.
It's the Engine Mounting. I had the same problem before, changed it and it's now gone.
I also tend to put it to N when slowing down to a stop. Or else  sweat.gif
Accelerate I don't know. If idle maybe the timing belt  unsure.gif

There were lots of sound before I sent my car for major service. When I put my car in "R" got lots of clanking noises coming from the engine bay. Had the mechanic checked it out, it was the heatshield that cover the extractor was loose. Just screw it back in tightly, now no more  rclxms.gif

ive used hotbits heatshield with the K&N filter set. bought from speedworks PJ Jalan 222 couple of years back. but i changed to drop in because lazy to maintain the filter. K&N filter needs to re-oil from time to time.

Yeah, if we go slow, we won't feel anything. The moment we are driving like 120 ~ 140kms, then only the swaying will start.

It's been a while since I visited here sweat.gif

I recently changed rims to 15x7jj, after the change I noticed the swaying is much more noticeable. Days after I went for another balancing & alignment, same thing. I suspect maybe the lower arms were worn out because at the rear I noticed my left side got more camber than the right.

Oh, I see. I was worried that your Apexi open pod can't seem to fit to I installed mine last week at Speedworks also and coupled it with UR sway bars. About the LCP, Works don't have one for Viva right? Installed yours at the workshop you mentioned eh?

He probably drives a 1.0 Auto la. Yours is a 850cc Manual, cannot compare your mileage to his. Mine is 1.0 Auto and I've been getting 350km per RM 50 consistently.

hi Bro,

For safety purpose the car with 4mil tinted was ok..and for block out the heat....i don think apply V-Kool oso will help much...cuz the bornet and top the heat will transfer in to cabin...as we know the thickness was not up to thick....so normal tint will do....correct me if i wrong

Same goes to stock front bumper. The bumper dropped a bit leaving gap, can fit one finger sweat.gif The car had an accident sent to workshop they say it's common for Viva owners since the bumper mounting is easily flex. Got it repaired just after 3 days I accidentally blacked out for a second during traffic jam (due to fatigue) and kissed the Taxi driver in front me. Got gap again cry.gif

Viva is one of the worst in terms of milo tin doors and virtually no noise isolation. You should start with 4 doors as a must followed by the roof. (Terrible during raining) If you plan to insulate whole car the bill could come up to thousands.

Added on June 7, 2012, 8:22 amas for sound proofing, i think advisable to skip this.. dont think will help much since viva's insulation is vry poor.
btw, u'll b suprised tht viva bodyparts r stronger than saga blm n city..
i just took my car to "dent repair" expert workshop to get a dent on my door fixed w/o having to repaint..

Hi. I got a few question here.

Is viva resale value high?

Any major problem with this car? such as air-cond, braking system and etc.

How is the viva auto fuel consumption? 1L= ?km

Resale value kinda low.
So far don't have any major problem for me .. except the brake pad issue.
Depend on your right foot, I able to gain 600KM+ per full tank.

RM 400 to change all 14" tyre kinda not enough laugh.gif except you taking a normal brand. I'm using michellin tyre on my viva and each of them cost me RM 200 per piece so 4 pieces = RM 800.

Here,I wanna seek advice from people who changed their CD player on Viva.

I find the sound of viva is so damp,is it because of the speakers or player?Or should I change the player to test out?

hello guys, will those ultra racing bar reduce my viva body roll with stock suspension, spring, and etc?

if yes, will the improvement be noticeable? body roll in this car is so damn bad makes cornering sooo uncomfortable.

as starter, which bar(s) should I install first? and mind estimate the price for me?

Yes, resale value is low.
If you get the Viva just for resale value, go for Toyota or Honda. Their resale value better.

No major problem. My car is around 2 yrs +-. Air-cond very good(Denso AC).

RM400 for pieces, maybe so-so tyre only. For good tyres with that knid of budget, maybe 2nd hand tyres.
Like whitewing commented earlier, a good set of 4 tyres will cost you around RM650-RM800.

That is fair price for a one year old car.
Mine was 1 1/2 year old but mileage was 13K when I took possession of it, and insured for around RM32K.
The value is dependent of several factors and some of them are age of car, cc capacity, age of driver (not sure this still applys or not), NCD etc.

When taking corners, don't do "high-speed turning" in the Viva. Viva not meant for performance driving. Ambil koner perlahan sikit, Bradder.

Was told UR bars will reduce the car body roll.

Hi. I am checking out Viva fuel consumption. I am pretty shocked! 600km full tank is a lot! Driving in the city? Or highway?
Thats even more than some fuel efficiency cars like Honda City?

Yes,600km in city drive. It's very depend on your right foot. If highway drive, full tank can run up to 800+ km,last time I just got my car,I able to run 1000km,since I change to 14" tyre n rims,its became 800+ km in highway.

How good is Honda city I don't know, viva fuel tank is 36L. I know Honda city have large capacity of fuel tank.

I heard honda city (five year ago model) full tank is about rm60-70, not sure litre.
Full tank for honda city can go about 400km-450km.. How much is full tank for viva?

If 36L times RM 1.90 then suppose RM 68+ but since our light start to blink,its still have 5L reserved in our viva fuel tank. So we might jump pump 28~30L = RM 55~RM 58 for full tank.

For a front bumper price without paint , its will cost you around RM 250 ~ RM 300 , depend on the service center or you can call Perodua to check the price for accurate answer.

I heard there's this sound coming out from down under engine it seems. When I accelerate from RPM 1500 to 2500, I heard 'screaching krik krik' sound.

Can I know what is the problem?

Engine mounting problem?

How much does it cost to repair?

Age of my car: Coming to 3rd month at mileage of 6000KM...

Which car should I get?

Viva - fuel efficient, really compact car
MyVi - looks steady, fuel efficient?

What made you guys choose Viva over MyVi (besides cost)

Dear owners, my friend's Viva's front bumper became dented after a minor accident. The left hand corner caved in and the area next to the wheel well bent outwards. AFAIK there were no cracks or tears.

Anyway, she sent it for repairs and was charged RM450 to hammer the bumper back into shape and resprayed. is the amount reasonable?

RM450 just to re-do the bumper alone? That is effin expensive!

If I were you, I would purchase a sporty bumper (sportivo) and having it sprayed all for less than RM350.

Hi guys,

first time here. smile.gif just want to get some quick advice. icon_question.gif

currently running viva 1.0 on falken ziex rubber 165/55R15, which performs really bad on wet road.
all 4 inflated at 220bar as per perodua recommendation.

in order to compensate lack of grip, should I bring down the pressure? Should this be done to all four tires? By how much?

Thank you.

Result : no problem driving alone with stock soft spring. But, will sometime hit the fender with lowered GAB spring going over on uneven road at high speed. With full load, both spring will also make the tires hit the fender going over on uneven road at high speed.

Means that tires will hit the fender with 175/50/R15 fulload even if I change the spring? How much will the spring cost?
Any other soluction to avoid tires from hitting the fender when full load.

I can't comment on GAB spring price because i sort of got it from a friend of mine. Hehe. Solution for tire hitting the fender? Roll the fender and make all 4 of them a little wider. Some shop can do it nicely without having to do the paint touchup :-)

hi guys.
just wondering, my car making bird chirping noise in the morning.
but, when drove far enough and the engine is hot, the chirping sound gone. some friends said its coming from my timing belt. but my timing belt just changed recently. why?
this sound is a bit loud. a bit shame when driving around campus.

and, my wiper water tank is leaked. how much for the tank?
cant wipe my window clean. no water. --''

well, viva has reached half a decade i think. obviously the replacement is in the pipeline (or on the drawing block). but, the new unit viva is still a good choice if you want a small car with cheap price.

hey, my car just got into accident.
Had to change the fender , re-knock the bumper to original shape , and get both painted. Total RM500 , is it worth it?
Btw , the color of the fender and bumper is different from original paint.
Is there anyway to solve this?

For that price to do all of those, i say it is worth it.

The colour is defferent from the original paint? Well, there's nothing much you can do really. That is caused by the workshop used the paint from other paint company than the one Perodua used although with the same color code. You can try waxing, but i doubt it will completely make it perfect nod.gif .

Yesterday i've changed my engine oil. Using Mobil 1 0W-40 fully synthetic gold bottle. The mechanic also change the oil filter. Does anyone have experienced on mobil 1? Is it good? The mechanic recommended me Liqui Moly. Is it suitable for our car? Mine Viva Elite 1.0(auto) milky white. Is it normal having vibration during idle?

Dess , yes this is the way of MSIG work. FYI you need to keep on follow-up with MSIG for every 2 days to check the status , I been accident with more than 4 times with my VIVA and all handle by MSIG staff. Depend how serious is the accident. Maximum I wait is 1 month and 2 weeks for my car to release.

all say next week also cannot be trust , you have to keep chase msig instead of the perodua workshop , you have to ask is they release the claim or not , if msig say yes,you can get it less than 2 days but the pain is have to wait msig do work.
1 month no car use is pain for me.

Please just check with MSIG for every 2-3 days smile.gif ~ Chase MSIG then MSIG will chase their people. We chase workshop people is useless.
You can't take out already if already start their job in that workshop. Private workshop also just wait , we as the customer must chase ourself , customer complain or chase is much powerful than a workshop chase.

Just go ahead to any perodua workshop or any workshop and change it .. they might charge you less than RM 10 or might less than that.

hi guys, i asking on behalf my gf's viva.

recently while driving, there is a sound just like the metal chain hit something coming from her engine.
will it be the timing belt (metal) rub on engine wall?
it happens just like 2-3 seconds and after that everything back to normal.
anyone facing this issue before?

recently my sis viva begin to develop sounds when you shift gear from 1st to 2nd and then accelerating. It sounds something like klonk klonk like something hitting the car body.

What could be the cause. the 3 year factory warranty is ending soon. Should I continue to service my car at SC or bring it to outside mechanic.

Have it check at Perodua ASAP. Worst come to worst it might be drive shaft.

Ah, i had this problem before. Since your aircond is cold enough, i'm guessing the problem comes from the clutch plate pulley attached to the aircond compressor. I replaced that magnetic clutch pulley for the aircond compressor for RM180-220 (without workmanship). Have it check at the workshop. Becareful tho, some workshop will ask you to change the whole thing including aircond compressor.

Perodua does not have magnetic clutch plate for air cond compressor if i'm not mistaken (asked them last year). They only have original air cond compressor setup. That's RM1200 if i'm not mistaken.

Hey ,can anyone suggest a good spring for viva? (No lowered please)
I've been getting 2 types of suggestions , get hard springs and soft spring.
I personally want the luxury-car type feel , which a lot of people suggest using soft spring, but they say if a heavy load on your car ,the springs will go very low.
So , any suggestion brothers ?

Guys,

My gf recently got a Viva 1.0 AT. It is a used unit. It came with those PVC seat covers. I want to remove them but now stuck at the rear seats. How to I remove the seats? I can see the hook in the body but I cant manage to unlatch it.

Please help..

i been driving viva 850 for more than 2years+ , and i'm a heavy driver for daily work + genting kaki xD~
wat i can is , this viva acceleration not fast enough for pickup but its power/sufficient to carry 5 adult up genting hill due it is manual transmission.

in term of fc , it was avg 9cent~13cent/km....top speed was 15xkm/h by stocks car.
RM55 ron95 can travel from kl to penang butterworth still left smth like rm10~2x petrol inside the tank

abt quality wise , nth i can say....langgar sikit2 ald dent , power window/central lock/alarm so far so good no problem within this 2 years+

maintenance roughly rm2xx for every 5k km/6 months for standard service

this car can help u save alots of $ from petrol if u travel alots , but if u concern about your safety and handling (a typical u-turn must <40km/h) ...viva is not suggested

Make sure your rims are wide enuf for the tyre 1st. If not wide , will make car tyres look like donut.And make sure lightweight rims.


Btw , anybody know any good brand of springs for viva?

Hi, i'm getting my first car. Viva elite auto.
Here some questions i want ask all the EX-viva owner.

1. I planing to change the rim to more sporty look. Same 14 inch. SO the original tyre will suit the new rim? Coz both same at 14inch.

2. Viva is a light weight car. HOW to improve the stability when turning a corner? lower sport spring? Ultra Racing anti roll bar? or ???

3. I can hear the engine sound inside the car. Does soundproof will help us block the engine noise?

Sorry for my bad english. TQ

1. Sure can fit...im using existing tyre fit with myvi SE rims....

2. There's many ways....try a wider (or bigger) rims with a good tyre, then reduce ur car height, sport spring/adj abs (dont ever use 'potong spring' method). As additional, aftermarket arb/sway bar/tower bar would be help...Last time found someone selling front Dsport arb, but someone bought it edi..darn!

3. Of course it will help, but where u planned to install the soundproof sheet? Behind ur dash at firewall? Viva already have a soundproof sheet back there....

mine 1.0auto can reach up to 87km/rm10 of fuel....Its a long distance consistent driving, and follow the 110/90 km/h speed limit.....heheheheheh
Town driving will get up to 75km/rm10 of fuel....

Another tips for new viva auto owner. as my friends that work at Perodua SC told, stock alza/viva have a acceleration prob. When u try to accelerate, ur viva/alza very hard to automatically drop down the gear even when u floor the pedal. This is becos the accelerator cable is not short enough to pull the gearbox kickdown cable.
So what u have to do is, hack/bend abit the stopper behind accelerator pedal so u can floor ur pedal even far....Then adjust/pull the kickdown cable, so ur gearbox will detect the ur pedal movement earlier, and drop the gear while u try to accelerate....

Never ask for viva before, but kancil/kenari/kelisa rear abs price around rm50 per piece....so maybe just around dat price i though.... Normal Kayaba abs sparepart shop was a oil type abs, so it should be soft type la....

I don think changing to sport/perfomance suspension system will reducing car perfomances...But it'll sacrifice your comfort for sure depend on spring rate u chose.

I never use gab b4, but I use HWL adj abs for my wira and kancil. amazingly comfort and handling level so much better compare when im using sport spring + short stroke abs. My wira 4g91 using 6k kg spring pair with rear 4k kg spring, but forgot my kancil apring setup....

Ur question is subjective, depend on individual...like mine drove viva 1.0 auto 14inch is gud enough, im using myvi se rims since it wider compare to ori viva elite rims 14x4.5 offset 45....

15inch too big for me la....plus tyre very expensive and dont have much model available for 165/50/15 size....

thx again. Did u install any ultra racing or other brands to stabilize ur viva? Which part/bar is highly recommend? or full set? (but many others say if full set will make the handling more worst)

Im not using any stabilizer bar in my viva, since my wife drove this car most of the time...

As I know, car manufacturer design car chasis to be twist (a bit)....as to absorb uncomfortable feel especially on uneven road. This theory just same like design of engine mounting to absorb engine vibrations. If u use a solid rubber/silicone racing engine mountings of course u will feel engine vibration direct inside car cabin.

I use ultra racing front n rear bar at my wira before, yes of course I can feel the rigidity is improved while taking a hard cornering, but there's a rattling sound at the rear bar so I romove it back....

Only my 2cents plus friend telling story.... biggrin.gif

Not sure about 1.0 but my 6 month old 850 (Manual) FC is quite good with approx. RM20 to take me about approx. 150km. I typically restart my meter to check my distances each time I pump petrol. I occasionally stuck in traffic jam at Penang Bayan Baru area but a gentle driver. I use ONLY Caltex RON95 and Shell RON95 only when there is no other choices.

Hope the information can give you some estimation. Generally, I think FC very much depending on how you drive, what condition you drive in, and how well you maintain/service your car.


I have questions to other sifu around here. I've install sound proof for the engine bay covers and doors offered by P2 SC but got this huge problem with the roof. How much and where in Penang would you recommend to get it sound proof for the roof?

Also, some of my friend recommend installing meters like vacuum and engine temperature meters so I can ensure that I don't go overboard with my engine. Can share with me your opinion on this?

Why dun just by 1roll of insulflex 6/10mm thickness then u diy....Very easy one la, insulflex also come wif self adhesive....

Im also think there is a need to install an additional gauge. But the most important is water temp gauge since viva doesnt have it. Now im thinking about NRG or Shadow water temp gauge. Never buy any cheaper then this 2 brands, not accurate n easy to broke....

hi guys, i'm interested to buy used viva elite auto.
just wondering...whether i should buy now or wait until early of next year

btw...i did some survey on the price through website....
if the price mention let say 29k....
is that all that i need to pay(buy n drive)? or will there be any other extra cost to be incurr i.e insurance, road tax, etc?

i did read the website on tips to buy used car
one of the point is to bring mechanic/expert to the used car shop as to view/check the car.....
the thing is that i don't have family/friends that has those expertise...
what is the best assistance for me to ensure the used car is on reasonable(healthy) condition?

hi guys, i'm interested to buy used viva elite auto.
just wondering...whether i should buy now or wait until early of next year

btw...i did some survey on the price through website....
if the price mention let say 29k....
is that all that i need to pay(buy n drive)? or will there be any other extra cost to be incurr i.e insurance, road tax, etc?

i did read the website on tips to buy used car
one of the point is to bring mechanic/expert to the used car shop as to view/check the car.....
the thing is that i don't have family/friends that has those expertise...
what is the best assistance for me to ensure the used car is on reasonable(healthy) condition?
*
29k i just for the car...
U might need to add more $$$ for Insurance, Roadtax, JPJ ownership transfer fees, puspakom (ownership transfer inspection), + some $$$ for runner to do it.... But of cos, used car agent will not said about runner, instead they will calc a sum of money and said "OK, on the road u add RM $$$$"...... But all of this depend on your negotiation skill bro...
Anyway, personally i'm prefer to buy a used car direct from seller/owner, cos i can test drive the car, used car shop normally not allow u to drive the car unless you pay deposit....

Based on my experience befriend wif a guys in this industry, I personally not trusting a used car shop, becos nowaday they are really good in refurbishing a used car. They dismantle all seats, carpets and clean up all dirts... They wash the engine with chemicals and spray a wax to make the engine look very clean...Even worst they also send the car for a layer of paint...After a week or a month, then u will see the paint start to faded, oil leaking everywhere etc2....Its too good to be true...Anyway, everything depend on ur luck...biggrin.gif

Take your time bro, go any used car shop, try to find viva direct from owner, survey for a best deal, make a comparison, close deal only when u satisfied wif the price and car condition....

You can ask the owner to provide you the service report receipt. If you planning to buy year 2010 car,he suppose to have all those service record,if he don't have,ask him go to service center and print all of them smile.gif ~ a normal viva is come with 3 years warranty and if he have extended warranty then will be 3 + 3.

Why dun just by 1roll of insulflex 6/10mm thickness then u diy....Very easy one la, insulflex also come wif self adhesive....

Im also think there is a need to install an additional gauge. But the most important is water temp gauge since viva doesnt have it. Now im thinking about NRG or Shadow water temp gauge. Never buy any cheaper then this 2 brands, not accurate n easy to broke....

I asked around and they charge around RM400 just for the roof. I was thinking of DIY but concerned that I might mess up. Saw in youtube before and it seems rather sophisticated. So when you wanna soundproof your roof?

Water Temp gauge... ok... will keep an eye on that. NRG and Shadow brand. But from other forums they mention it is good to get engine temperature guage wor...

Hello anyone...Did u know about Firestorm Ignition Coil Booster?It is Works on all vehicles which run on petrol. FireStorm Ignition Coil Booster can be fitted in both automobiles and motorbikes.

Easily plugs into the fuse socket for most cars without cutting any wires or cable harness for most cars.

Upgrade the power of your Ignition Coil with this add-on device and feel an immediate power improvement during acceleration.

The 5x stronger spark promotes complete combustion of the air-fuel mixture resulting in extra power squeezed out from the same amount of fuel burnt. Unburnt petrol smell is also eliminated, even on vehicles without a catalytic converter.

Saves fuel with lesser kickdowns and gear changes which cause higher engine RPM and wastes more fuel. Automatic transmission gear shifting is faster and smoother due to the power increase thoughout the entire RPM band.

Shifting quicker into higher gears results in lower RPM, which in turn, saves more fuel. Climbs hills with lesser effort on the accelerator pedal.

Details u can check here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PKM3Eo737E&feature=youtu.be

Price?I will try to get bulk price...More ppl want to buy...Of course more cheaper....Pm me for best price thx...

Hey there Viva owners. A couple of days back my car got caught in a flood while I was away shopping. Fortunately it wasn't deep enough to get to the engine but the carpet is soaked. So, I was wondering if you guys know of any shop that can change the whole carpet at an affordable price. Nothing special. The stock carpet would do. I live in Sunway by the way... Thanks so much in advance!!!

LordAmery,

You could try ctc jesse, he bring alot of L250/260 mira halfcut (japan viva), maybe he got the carpet... I think 2nd hand would be much cheaper compare to making a custom viva floor carpet...

rm400 wat material they use? if using dynamat or any kind of tar material that would be reasonable...

Saw someone selling insulflex, half roll of 10mm thickness is rm170, its 4ft(W) X 15ft(L), So las nite i roughly measure a viva roof, width 40inch (3ft 4inch), and long 54inch (4ft 6inch).... So if i buy half roll of 10mm insulflex, its sufficient for 3 viva's roof...Means it just cost u RM57 + some effort for DIYing....


Added on November 8, 2012, 10:29 amHye there, currently im looking for Dynamat xtreme bulk pack....Havent found anyone sell it in msia. Check the price at amazon.com for usd199, and its 36square feet in size.

So yesterday survey at local acc shop sell no brand one for rm600 per box of 9square feet inc installation.... Very expensive....

My Viva left passenger outside door handle doesn't snap back down once pulled up to open the door. It's stuck right up unless forcefully pushed back down again.

Think it's going to be cheap to fix?

Hm... recently my Viva started making some "woo woo" sound when I brake, especially when I brake on speed bumps as the tyres go over them.

The "woo woo" sound is deep and low.

It doesn't happen all the time. It's intermittent.

What kind of problem do you think this is?
