Guys,

I have a darken original Japan Rear glass for kenari. Anybody wants it? RM 100 nego or you offer me your expected price. Clearing off my store room. highly negotiable.

Thank you.

wow! amazing mileage on petrol. mine full tank can go about 350 km like that. but i do alot of start/stop traffic and when the road in front is open, 4k rpm only change gear and drive as fast as possible. LOL! anyway, mine is 2005 kenari manual.

What's the difference between first gen kenari and facelift Kenari?

Dear sifu,

I have tried to change my car aircond panel light to LED earlier, but then when I turned it on it turned off immediately. Now whenever I turn my light switch on, all the dashboard panel light including speedo meter lights would not on. Checked the fuse box but all the fuses are alright. Kindly advice me on what's wrong.

Thank you.

this coming sat i cant make it. already have plans. =(

Hi kengseng,

Welcome to Kenari club LYN.

Referring to your first question, are there any problems with your engine now? How far can you go on full tank?

For suspension, I am currently using GAB height adjustables sport suspension kit. Very good cornering feel and not as bumpy as I expected. Previously was using APM sport spring on my previous car (kancil) which was way more bumpier than my current ride.

For the door trim, you may change it at any upholstery shop. Walk in and ask them for quotation.

Steering wise, I think you can walk into any spare part shop and enquire. Should be about 100 ringgit for those without airbag.

Wow! thats good mileage given that your car has travelled 300k KM. I'd suggest to go for GAB as i am currently using it. More comfortable than APM. but this is personal reference. you gotta see what sort of ride would you like. More towards comfort or handling. For me i like something more balanced between comfort and handling.

If the engine does not consume engine oil, i think your engine should be in good condition. Dont touch anything unless there is anything wrong.

kengseng, it was installed by the previous owner but im still keeping the official receipt from him. 1.2k for GAB from RS One Motorsport Kepong which is the official distributor for GAB suspension. I forgot which series but it is the semi adjustable one. it also comes with the rear adjustable kit to adjust the height so that it becomes fully adjustable for height.

What engine do you plan to plonk into your engine bay? If you're going for L9 turbo, I think is better you maintain the original engine and make it better such as doing stage 1 modifications. Power wise between L9 turbo and our faithful EJ-DE is the torque delivery. HP wise is almost identical. Unless you're going to plonk K3-VET, then that is a totally different story all together. In the end, your budget is the one who decides everything.

Underpowered I think is compensable when you're carrying passengers. 3 cylinder engine needs to be revved to get going.

Basically stage 1 mods include changing to drop in/open pod filter, better spark plugs, better plug cable, bigger exhaust system, grounding kit + voltage stabilizer. depending on what you do and what product you install, it does help with performance if done properly.

Well, if you're looking for K3-VE, then i think it is a good idea to mod. if you want easy maintenance, go for NA instead of turbo. unless you have the $$$ to maintain them.

Below are my details:

tommi88 2005 Black Aerosport (M)

my cubebox has also changed the exhaust system to 3-1 extractor with 2 inch piping all the way out. its the Hot Bits kit though. Not sure how does it help with FC but engine response definitely increase.

currently im using ATF fluid as my power steering fluid. Will that do any harm?

Greetings Kopiopot,

Welcome to LYN Kenari Club. It is good that you are thinking to get a 2nd hand Kenari Auto coz it is a really affordable and very economical car to own in terms of fuel and maintenance. Basically, there is nothing major to look at really coz it is a really reliable car. However, you will need to make sure all the car mechanical moving parts and joints are properly maintained by previous owner. If the previous owner is a good care taker, there is not much things to worry about.

For Auto, take it for test drive and try to press the throttle to make sure the gearbox is not sluggish and jerky. Some badly maintained Kenari have very bad FC and jerky feel due to poor maintenance. Walk away if the car feels this way as there are so much choices for 2nd Kenari in the market now. Also check for the engine mounting and whether the engine vibrates too much during idle. If the car vibrates too much on idle, probably the engine mounting needs to be changed or engine requires retuning.

Thanks.

I've been using this engine oil grade (5W30) for quite sometime and i do not need to top up before my next service. How is the FC on your car? Any white smoke coming out from your exhaust on a hot sunny day?

i think it is better for you to bring your car to your trusted mechanic to check. I suspect it could be your engine is consuming more engine oil than usual. Hence, you need to fill up once in a while. Probably the piston rings are gone.

Are there still any leaks at this moment? If your repairs are still under warranty, you can bring back to P2 to get them rectified for free of charge if it falls within their warranty.
