I do not have info for Iswara bcos not done yet (I did for previous car long time ago, so prices not accurate). Any way I can only make some guesses : each wheel have 2 bearings, normally changed both sides, so total 4 bearings. Each bearing may be around RM30 - 50. Add in labour maybe total damage RM300 ???

Perhaps other members can help.

Attached is price that looks very cheap, not sure about it.

what albert mentioned. try to find NTN or koyo wheel bearings will do. the labor will be the most expensive part since you need machine pressing for front bearings. rear bearings not too crucial/no need so it's cheaper in the rear

thanks for the info

at least i have an estiatimtion

Possible causes:
1) Worn-out piston rings causing excessive blow-by that exceed what PCV system can cope
2) PCV valve fault/jammed
3) Leaks at vacuum hoses or gasket that affect the vacuum function of PCV valve

Did you see oil stains at the hole at bottom of air filter housing where a hose connects to the valve/camshaft cover?
*
yup at the bottom of the air filter liao

Try draining out all your gear oil,  put in Lubegard manual and then top up appropriately with Chemlube/red line full synthetic gear oil of the correct api specifications /viscosity ,  see if that solves the problem smile.gif

I'm on Lubegard manual and red line MTL for my inspira F5MBB transmission now (just replaced yesterday,  and yes mileage only 1.7k because the shifting was pretty horrible on the lower gears

QUOTE(poolcarpet @ Jan 26 2014, 05:08 PM)
I second that. Change the gear oil and see how it goes. If unsure and minimize cost, just go change standard gear oil at Shell, cheap only less than RM50 if I remember correctly.

i see ??? can DIY meh ????

Your consumption works out to be 12.4 km/l is ok compared to members here who are getting around 10 km/l, considering your car's age & condition and the traffic.

Didn't have the chance to send it to get looked at yet, leaving it alone for now since not a major issue just inconvenient at night...but since I'm so used to my engine noise I basically know what speed and RPM I'm at on all the gears lol  thumbup.gif
I just had my radiator serviced, you should consider getting yours serviced too, they will dismantle it, heat up the soldered corners and remove the side panels and manually clean the water pathways with water running through, definitely a lot of build up and deposits throughout the years....after that they will flush the radiator, and then flush the water from engine block, and then you refill with RO water lor...coolant up to you but for me I'm just using water. Never had any problems with heat so far.  icon_rolleyes.gif
Can't start how?, no cranking sound at all ka?

yeah i changed the battery rm 290
