ei , maddriver , i head from my mechanic during my last week top over haul on my proton wira .
there is a pipe which connect the AFT fluid to the radiator to cool it , why is there another AFT cooler too ?
*
the atf cooler with installation for waja costs rm450. imagine this. the hot atf goes under a hot radiator to cool the atf. logic?

Heavy rain yesterday, my PW panel sipped in water when I opened the door and it freaked out for about a few minutes during startup. Keep winding down by itself as it has shortcircuit. And it became normal right after that...Should I bring it to SC and ask them to check?

if still under warranty, why not?

bros, any way to reduce waja petrol consumption...

i love my 1.6a mitsu waja...but really puts a strain on my wallet every time i fill up the tank.

as it is, i drive 90km/h for the sake of reducing the consumption but it's still kinda high...

get your car checked. clogged air filters, fuel filters, engine oil and plugs at the end of their service life can also cause high fc. if done all that, check tuning. if done all that, go buy a kancil

RM 180 gone jsut for the battery, then when i take back my car, i start engine... 1500 then wait drop to 800, ok nvrmd i go back home.. then i realize that.. hmm.. normally, i am a light footed driver.. max rpm to my home from my dad shop is 2000 for speed before 70km/h.. [1 gear 2000 2gear 2000 3 gear 2000 4 gear 2000 or below.. that is normally i drive..]
after changing the battery, 1 gear 2000 2 gear 2600+- then 3 gear 2500, 4 gear 3000.. why like that... ?? i dunno wat happen..

check for potential shorts in the wiring. as for the vibrations, check engine mounting and get the car tuned.

i've got those superpro bushes. for the steering rack, it cost rm90. need to check the car first. very simple to check. open the bonnet, get someone to lightly turn the steering wheel while u look at the rack. the rack should not be moving at it's mounting points while the steering wheel is being turned. if so, then the bush is worn and needs replacement. hope this helps.

k&n is anytime better than hks as hks is sponge type, still needs changing, but k&n types only needs cleaning

I need an estimation quote on repairs from those who got experince. I kena accident.. sial betul ~~

Damage is - left fender kemek a bit, left light ok but the kaca pecah, the bumper is the paling teruk one. Crack, kemek and bended a bit de. Not sure can save or not. Signal light ok but the mounting to the bumper patah. So i took it off.

Guys...my Waja is due for rear absorbers change again (Kayaba gas shocks)...this will be my 4th pair for 2002 Waja 1.6A (86k kms)

Am getting tired that they kaput so fast...i admit that my housing area is full of speed breakers (aka humps) but i always go over them real slow and easy...there are like 10 of them and i had to go over them twice a day (going to work and coming back)...

i understand that Waja rear shocks kaput very quickly, more so with all those speed breakers, but i really hope to find a longer lasting ones without sacrificing comfort...appreciate all you wajarians out there who can recommend me absorbers that fit my criteria...i'm a very fussy owner, so price is no object to me.  tongue.gif

thanks in advance to those who reply. nod.gif

u might want to try my heavy duty servicable shocks. those last a long time.
