rev mean u accelerate ur car until the RPM go very high.
normally girl drive car very slow and the car power will reduce and reduce... if u wan the power back, then u have to always rev ur car... but when u rev ur car, it increase FC.

I predict it's mostly ur air-con compressor belt being the culprit. If so, tighten it according and only use a silicon based lubricant for the belt. Petroleum based lube will damage the belt smile.gif

air-cond compressor belt aarr? well, the loud sound starts even before i switch on the aircond? or the belt, no matter air-cond on or not, will still moving ar? noob! tongue.gif

btw, first time i heard timing belt oso we put lubricant, again noob! hahaha!

Yup, regardless of whether you turn on the aircon or not, the engine will still drive drive the aircon compressor. It's just that the magnetic clutch in the compressor is not engaged, so no cold air biggrin.gif

Hope u understand laugh.gif

And btw, check ur other belts like power steering and alternator as well.

EDITED: Don't get me wrong. I did not ask you to apply lubricant to your "timing belt". I'm referring to the aircon/alternator/power steering belt, if the squeking sounds still can be heard even after you tighten em' belts.

Again, do not apply any sorts of lubricant to ur timing belt, it's a stupid thing to do. The lubricant that i mentioned is something like a belt dresser. Spare part dealer should know what's that. It's not exactly a lubricant..so in this case, i'm da noob, not you blush.gif

Anybody knows why my wira has this `tak tak tak' sound from the lower engine compartment near the foot pedals? Gets louder when the aircon is on and goes off when I step on the clutch?

I'm driving 1.5(A), is my company's car.

Pros : Spare Parts is easily available and relatively cheap, mechanics also more familiar with it.
Car price also cheap.

Cons : Fuel Consumption is very high, due to auto. trans.
No power for auto. Trans. also.
Some parts also not so durable..... lifespan also quite short.
Body very soft, easily get dented if hit by small stone or other things.
Suspension system and handling not very good especially on bumpy /uneven road.
Turning radius very big, i.e. difficult to make u-turn and parking.
This car model is considered OLD already, more than 10 years. So 12 buy new car but old model???? Better think twice.

hehe, it's not 'squeking' actually, it's just gettin louder, not that it's gettin louder everyday, it's louder compare to few months ago, well, i do admit lst few months maintenance not so good, no money wan to bring to service. well, will be bringin my car to service this week (gaji! tongue.gif ), have been surveying those so called 'improve ur engine' liquids, some even say can reduce engine sound, maybe will get one, will share with u guys the result.

i'm driving a 1.5GL wira, but i changed my engine to 4G92.
i have the same problem too.
i think its because of the clutch plate, may be its not properly thighten or something. rclxms.gif

icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif
Btw, does anyone knows why sometimes i cant start my car?
when i turn my key, the sound "tak tak tak tak tak" (rapidly) come from the engine bay. i try to play around with electrical stuffs in my car and all of them showing the sign of weak batt. But after a while(after playing the electrical components), my car can be started already....
why hah??

(after my car start, i turn it off again. but the car shows no sign of weak batt.. everything runs well sweat.gif )
