Hi... wish to ask... is it normal that my >1 year old saga flx's rear wheel looks like leaning inwards a bit? i just noticed that last week.
can it be repaired ?

i was told that the rear wheel of saga is fixed and cannot be adjusted.

Like this when seen from front or back?

If yes, it is normal. Go look at any car, most of them have rear wheels like that.

Yes... just like that , I'll try to look at other saga n see.
but i feel that the right rear wheel leaning angle is much obvious compared to the left one...
i m not sure if it's due to driving into pod holes quite often. hmm.gif

Tofu beam problem. Anyway, send for alignment check & see whether camber ran out more than -1. If yes need to fix, cause by default Plotong set it up as -1 left & -1 right. And its supposed to looked like

/-----\

U can leave it run even camber is out, but the problem is your rear tayar will eat faster than usual. As for why Plotong set it as -1, that's bcoz for handling purpose. As & when u tarik corner, your rear wheel will have more tayar surface contact to the ground. If u hv more -ve value meaning better cornering handling. Previously my Shawie & GaGa both ran out of shape kaw-kaw. GaGa due to too much henbrek drift, until 1 side ran -4.5. Worst case I've heard is Marhaihai's BLM, ran -32.

I've sent both my Shawie & GaGa to repair rear camber, currently both cars both side set to -0.5. To save tayar rather than speed cornering.

Those who wish their engine rosak

Many possibilities. Could be head gasket, could be valve seat. Best to wish PCV sumbat, after clean will back to normal. Ofcoz worst case will be everything happened the same time lor. As zeone suggested, nowadays quality so bad, god knows when ur car will rosak like mine whistling.gif I hope u guys all engine rosak & seb petrol like mine whistling.gif
