hey guys... for those who are using K&N Air Filters, how do you clean the filter? I am planning to buy the K&N Recharger Kit and clean it myself because outside ppl doing the cleaning is very expensive and some simply use corrosive chemical  sweat.gif
I saw there are white colour bottle and black colour bottle of the cleaner and oil but don't not what's the different. I only knew it got aerosol type and squeeze bottle type for the oil.  hmm.gif

Use the Recharger Filter Care Service Kit drool.gif
How much they charge you? shocking.gif

but I am from Penang...
wah.. if you just clean it then all the red colour oil will be gone rite? K&N said actually the oil is to help capture dust due to the higher air flow...Maybe without the oil will get higher air flow but much dust goes in also LOL
they want to charge me around 30 bucks for the cleaning and re-oil. And the main reason I don't like to let outside do because have to wait it dry naturally for quite long. Some ask u leave the filter there for them while loan u a used pariah filter.

That's expensive..just get yourself a cleaning kit then service yourself.. wink.gif

I see..
So you suspect the valve seal ya? OK then, I'll try to consult with my foreman about this.
Thank you..

Btw, my absorber "kong" already..
My foreman said, Kayaba whole set 4pc, RM640. Original.
I saw around and the garage shop and mudah, it's more than RM800. So, is it possible with RM640? standard one maybe? my foreman didn't lie right?
*
Recommend APM Performax..slightly stiffer than stock but still comfort..so far so good..using around 1 year already..full set I guess around RM500 without installation..Where is your location?

Hello there, My wira's windscreen got a problem (i think,coz i just bought new wiper yet still make noise).
When using Wiper there is some sound. Quite noisy and annoying when raining and even not raining i just try to wipe it, it makes noise also. Im assuming its not the wiper problem is windscreen problem. do u guys know how much will it cost me to service it?
*
Try to lift up your wiper and wipe..see got sound or not..if yes..replace your wiper link..mine last time having this problem..
I just replace my windscreen..still got noise..new wiper..new windscreen..still got a small part in middle cannot wipe properly for the second wipe(when going back to bottom direction)..
I damn fed up..got time only check what is the problem..if change already still cannot..I will psycho myself this is PROTON.. sweat.gif

Currently found out my engine condition quite bad..

Cold start early morning..the engine sound is very rough..but when running hot already..it's back to normal..

Let my mech check..found out that the sludge inside my engine is quite serious..

Anyone have any idea why like that? I change my engine oil regularly..and did top overhaul around 2 years back..

The circled part is my mech use screw driver remove the sludge mark..the condition is as worst as those unmaintained car... sweat.gif

*
Second hand..bought 3 years ago..now I suspect my engine block not in good condition already..
For the engine oil..I don't use petrol station engine oil.. biggrin.gif
Previous I use Q8..then change to this engine oil..
I used Petronas, Shell and Castrol before..all not up to my expectation wink.gif

You must be wondering how come never heard of this oil before? We beliefs in Word of Mouth more than throwing money in advertising in order to pass the savings to you, best quality with low price.

As far as I know there is no MAX wording on the outside of the tank plastic. Yeah, my dad has literally filled up the entire tank. Please advise what should be the recommended level of water inside the spare tank?

3/4 should be sufficient wink.gif

Wira owners, just wanna ask something about my car.

My wira is 1.5 Auto transmission. When I drive, it has got no problem changing from gear 1 to 2. But problems start when it is trying to change to the 3rd gear. It sounds like it cannot change to third gear because what i heard is "vrooomm'' before changing to 3rd gear.  The sound is like as if you shifted your gear to neutral, then back to gear 3.

I guess this is gearbox problem. Is there any cheaper way than changing the whole gearbox? smile.gif

Find gearbox specialist which they accept trade in your old gearbox..I changed mine for RM800 around 2 years back with 6 months warranty.. laugh.gif
