blink.gif Fuel pump wo? Just a pump need so expensive meh?  shakehead.gif
*
got different types sum more...found one which was an electronic fuel pump...put inside the cabin...got me confused and bothered... doh.gif

but aftermarket got this Walbro brand which seems popular amongst modders but has been reviewed to be rather noisy...

the best way to avoid ur fuelpump from dying...especially for fuel injected engines like ours is to never run on E or try to avoid running on Empty...there will be added strain on the pump. in a sense, once u see the fuel light come on...go pump petrol asap...
unker trick...taught to me by my dad....hahaha...he says its a general rule of thumb for fuel injected cars...if carb, no worries...

has anyone ever checked their pads when changing due to this sound? any uneven wear...one side more than the other? could be due to that...that one need proper mechanic sort out, any donkey mechanic outside of the proton sc, is a proper mechanic to me...tak skolah pun ada yang lagi boleh pakai than those at the SC.

Im using MLine. will my brake be better if i change to brembo disc rotor?
*
for brembo prices...all ur paying for is the brand, especially if ur not getting the slotted and drilled performance rotors...
it will still brake better...

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


but if u want a cheap, quick fix to improve ur braking performance...

1) Ask mechanic to check ur brake pump/servo and adjust to tighten.
2) M-line, not too sure if got rear disc brakes...if dun have means can change the brake pump to a larger one...try getting gen2/persona h-line brake pump...(its different to compensate for all around disc brakes!)
3) Replace brake fluid
4) Change Pads + skim the rotors
5) Change brake lines to steel braided hoses.
6) Change rotors
7) Still cannot stop? add rear disc brakes...

In my opinion the stock rotors work fine cause it was designed for travelling within the speed limit and also the car size, unless youve already modded and unlocked the potential power of ur car.
then, u willl have some trouble stopping, like me whistling.gif ...

but if it just to get rid of the spongy "tak makan" feel...numbers 3 and 4 should suffice.

brembo rotors definitely will work better,provided its paired with the right pads and u cant expect anything less from the brand...but here, i believe, we've moved on from brands...

as you can see from my list...rotor change is almost the last resort...for daily driving...change only if needed i.e. cracks, warping or just worn out.

Anybody knows how to adjust the thing to open the boot? When i pulled the stick, sometimes it won't open. SC do already still like this after a few days. wacko.gif

sounds like something got disconnected...if u pull the Lever, (stick? doh.gif )...if there is no resistance the cable might have detached or snapped. if not something is wrong somewhere...at the lock or clip...

Hi Sifus, would it cause any damage to any where in the car if it got towed while the handbrake is up? My car got towed yesterday in cyberjaya!!!

depends on which tyres are on the ground (being dragged) if rear...then ur in some trouble...and have to get it checked. if its in P then, ur in trouble also.
