@rozz: and yes, the driver matters the most. even i still have a long way to go before i can even consider hitting the limits of my car. there's still so many ways on how to drive the car in general and much less on the track. next time i'll consider driving on 2nd gear and maintain a smoother line/cornering, i think i should be able to shave off 1-2 seconds, hell if i can even hit under 1minute, i'm a happy man! (if the damn vios can do it, i'll be damn sure to at least try tongue.gif )

maybe lose the music? and gain some concentration? anyways, its a very smooth run, hard to find faults in it. I never join track very long edi, my car is in the "maintenance" stage. laugh.gif

Finally got it! After searching for this exact type of wheel covers, I finally got it today. I went to Asli Auto at Old Klang Road the other day and they said difficult to get this and send me to an accessory shop at OUG. The uncle only had 1 piece left and told me he will try to get it for me. Then today he called me, I went to collect it. Only RM12 each  tongue.gif  I asked him whether got the wan with 'Proton' wordings, he said this 1 oso very2 difficult to get, if with 'Proton' wordings means definitely cannot get wan  tongue.gif

Is it that difficult to install a reverse sensor on the Iswara? Few months back I went to an accessory shop to install reverse sensor but the guy said must have bracket so that the sensors can be installed on the bumper. Then today I went to kedai 'abang' and that guy too told me the same thing. I asked him why can't you just drill a hole on the bumper and install the sensor, he said the bumper is made from fiber so it's difficult, sumore the sensor will give a wrong reading if directly installed on the bumper without the bracket because of the bumper design.  rclxub.gif

yes, you have to drill trough the foam. It is quite a difficult process. You can always DIY. just go get a cheap electric drill and hack your way trough the bumper! laugh.gif

How is the condition of your roof rain drainage gutter and the rubber lining? Got leakage, blockage? From what  I observe the rainwater should be drained away by these channels and the rubber seal at the door frame is usually dry.

seems like your roof has been damage before. Maybe that is the cause..

hi sifu sifu here, i wanna ask a few questions,

first of all, my car is 2004 lmst,

yesterday my car temperature gone crazy, 6 bar full and i immediately stop for rest,

after the mechanic take out the thermostat, i tot the problem is solved, however it still there, so my mechanic concluded that the temperature gauge/ sensor is faulty, does anyone here know how much to fix that ?and is it ok for my car without thermostat?

besides, my car also keep vibrating while idle, and i ask the mechanic he said the engine mounting is not good condition and ask me to change for RM300 plus, is it worth it? (just now another mechanic also try to adjust the throttle for me,haven't try it yet though)
*
tempreture gauge might be faulty, its a common issue for LMST. Engine mounting have to change.. Unless you want to drive around till your engine drop.

haha below 1000 mostly, and after the mechanic helped me adjust the throttle the problem seems to be reduced and idling RPM is near 1000 biggrin.gif, but now i start to worry about my FC ><

side note, went to workshop 4 times because the radiator temperature gone crazy, first time the mechanic checked fans and everything seems to be alright, water is still full,he help me take out thermostat and change a new radiator cap, cost me RM48. Second time went to nearby workshop because the problem still there, he checked everything and tell me the water is not boil so high chance the temperature gauge is faulty and suggest me to go to wiring shop, cost me RM0 this time though. The 3rd time i went to wiring shop, the person didn't really check anything and say nid to bypass wire to temperature gauge or donu what, cost me RM85. After few hours the problem is still there, and this time the water in the spare tank is gone and i could see smoke coming out. Went back to the shop, found out the fans is faulty, kejap jalan kejap tak jalan, change an used fan, cost me RM95 T.T.

I sincerely hope this time the problem is really fixed, or else I'm going to cry T.T

P.S: saja complaint my situation lol

wow, what radiator cap cost rm48?
