mine one is there since day one

me too... 

Mine also. After start engine also got klak klak.

allow me answer this klak klak issues.

gear at p klak. when u press break, it will release the p gear lock to release the gear enable you to change the gear knob from.p.

when u on air con, especially cold start in morning. huge klak sound indicate opening air con vent valve. if no klak sound means kong.

another issues i have is the petrol cap pull sometime not working. it doesnt release fully when pull. so it jam. need to press to lock the cap and pull again. kina annoying especially u worried pulling too hard will snap the cable.

when driving uphill, need to step on the accelerator or maybe shift the gear to L to have better acceleration.

I have my Almera more than 1 year, and my mileage 46k++  currently,  I just wanted to share out some experiences to u all to improve your almera condition:

1. TYRE ~ Normally i like to speed drive, 120 - 180km/h, that is no problem with unstable,lighter because i changed the original rubbish Continental CC1 outdated tyre to Bridgestone 185/60/15(made in Japan @ RM180/nos.).  alignment and balancing goes very well.more accurate.

2. FUEL ~ I tried my car with some different petrol, i prefer BHP 2xinfinity is very suit to Almera, the sound from engine running very smooth & silent, Power of acceleration increase, top speed easy speed up from 100 to 160km/h ( but i din't border on the Fuel Consumption lol).
Petronas, Shell - less power than bhp and noisy.
Caltex - less power + noisy... ( not recommended on Almera)
Petron - So so....

3. Window Visor ~ I removed the window visor due to the sound when speeding.

4. Hand phone Charger ~ not recommend to use vehicle charger, it will slow down your speed (almera only, my gf's vios no problem with this).

This only my opinion....

Thanks

Hi,

whats the mileage now?

Mine is currently 700km and yet only shows 10.9l/km, shall see after 1K service.

What r the problems encounter by almera owners here? Want to find out before making any decision. Any annoying noise, anything failed or major issue to take note?
I quite like the interior room available and also it seems slightly higher ground clearance if compare to vios and city.

so far for the car theres no problem but thr is a few thg u need to take note once u got de car.

- there will be  some noise produce at exhaust tip whn u start ur car / accelerate
- check on ur interior dashboard as there will b some noise will produce whn u driv thru uneven roads.
- check on ur door pillar is thr any sound whn go thru uneven road.

thats all from me as all this issue happens on me currently as 2 alrd settle n left 1 more cnt settle yet and will brg bk to SC to check again whn nex service...hehe...

yea bro...forget to mention abt that...lol...bt i alrd use to it so im ok wif it cos due to de magnetic clutch thingy thats y de sound will produce

i can go in to the page and see the price
i think they are updating the price coz now no more use castrol

incase you still cant go in
