im getting annoyed with my kenaris aircond... if i just park the car (especially under the hot sun)... the aircond will start not getting cold...spoke the the last shop that did the compressor/condensor n he keeps saying kenari is like that...and its also coz of the hot weather.

anyone facing the same crap with their aircond?

heard about it oso...mechanic oso recommended to me...

but then vitara compressor wont be to heavy for the engine meh?

rust is normal for the exhaust..but crack mesti bikin la...hehhe

kenari needs new driveshaft

anyplace got sell them cheap?

i changed mine all 4 recently for about RM4xx...APM

go around the workshops in ur area n ask for a more specific quote

not my thing but in case any of u likes it...



and i oso still using stock 13" tires... currently on dunlop j-cinq or something like that... paired with wira 13" rims.. heh

bought it in some tire shop in sri muda shah alam

yeah 13x5 is the main reason i ditched the stock kenari wheels.. but mine is the 13" 5 spoke sport rims

depends on the foot for auto.

i drive i get that mileage... wife drives gets about 450km.

mom drives.. can get about 500km

city driving

sure... auto

but the mom drive part is my ex-kelisa la....with 15" rims and ICE and full soundproofing...

the me n my wife part is the kenari

thats not my car... hence i said "not my thing"


but in case ur wondering about my car.. OEM springs with APM OEM replacement absorbers

doubt theres any permanent solution other than stop hitting those potholes so hard...go slow on them.

or u could try going 13" and use higher profile tires.... not sure if 175/70/13 can clear a kenari...but if it can...should be able to reduce the impact....

but no matter what, if u hit a pothole hard enough, something will break....seriously...start going slow on those potholes...learn where they are....choose a diff route etc etc etc

nope..perfectly legal as u dont change engine number... etc

fuel filter is placed INSIDE the fuel tank...meaning have to remove the tank n CUT it open...

my kenari I never bothered to change...if start giving problems then ill think about it

was mentioned quite a number of times in k2oc last time...same fir kelisa oso..but if u wanna open up, go ahead la...worse case, confirm with ur mech n see

anyway... im looking to sell my 2001 kenari below the current 12-14k market price...need bigger car for family...car is all stock...and its a full spec from factory.

may not look the best, but mechanically perfect... I maintained it anally since my wife n son is in the car most of the time n dun wan them to get in trouble in the middle of the road...which has NEVER happened before coz I make sure everything is good...one reliable lil car

if anyone is looking for a kenari, or knows of someone looking for a kenari...drop me a pm

or if anyone is looking for a budget car, drop me a pm oso

thanks

u can always just go to any random workshop and ask them about changing the kenaris fuel filter... can bring ur car... or can always just simply walk in.

engine mounting easy to identify.... just go any workshop

or u can just check it urself. pop the hood, take a flashlight and point to the mountings.. see if there are any cracks.. or if its totally broken.

start the engine and see how much it vibrates.

actually with the 3 cylinder engine, dont really need to do anything.. once the mounting kaput u will definitely feel the extra vibrations in the car.

highly doubt it.... kenari and kelisa engine mounting is always an issue.

just bring to any workshop and check.

this may be a month late.. but things to look out for:

1/ leaking flywheel oil seal
2/ leaking valve cover (ull find engine oil at the spark plugs)
3/ driveshaft has quite short lifespan (especially for non P2 ones)
4/ engine mounting has quite short lifespan (especially for non P2 ones)
5/ aircond compressor can also kaput


3 & 4.. for ori P2 can be quite expensive. about 1k each set....but they last super long.

non P2 can get about hald the price, but will only last half as long.
