have you try to ground one cable to your fuse box there.. mine still waiting for the VS to be arrive cz of my old one sell together with my old kelisa. btw the pivot blue and purple is here any power different between?

Tak try this as don't want to touch the fuse box.


QUOTE(Jackiecck @ May 13 2015, 12:38 PM)
Since this is normal on every alza so no point to do such mod to void the warranty just for non dim lights during aircond kicks in. BTW, thanks for your opinion. nod.gif
*
You are right too... but just add ground cable and VS should not void warranty... but by all means, some SC may just blame this and that.


So far I am okay with the alza.. kena scratches few places and stone chips.. later would bring this car for respray.

I just maintain the car best i can...btw, just cleaned throttle body 2 weeks ago as very dirty inside, DIY la of course and the pick up is back !!

What i mean is put one of the grounding cable near the fuse box area.. so maybe the cable will help return the grounding more faster, if not mistaken there is one original cable connected over there but the cable is very small, if not mistaken last time my kelisa also face this problem after a accident my friend help me to ground a cable to the alternator then the no more very serious dimming and engine vibration

Ohhh... okok...

Definitely have one to the -ve of batt... but not sure i have one to near the fuse box...hehehe

KL city area...going 10L ++ / 100km...just pour one fuel injection cleaner on last oil pump..went to a workshop and the foremen change a so call better gear oil for me..UMW one...100 over bucks..dunno got kena chop or not...

now monitoring the FC again....i guess will still exceed 10L...

next week going up to penang so will notice the FC again on highway drive.....alza not really FC saving even in ori mode all i can say..haha..

oh ya...now getting more noise coming out for a 4years + car...dashboard...some weird sound from the cabin...back to the spare tyre sometimes....

wonder any1 experience rattling sound from a-pillar...i ask my fren who own accessories shop and he open up the pillar cover and show me saying that there is no wire or metal in this part...he guess is dunno what exhaust mounting la or what its come from the engin bay....the rattling sound is kinda annoying when go on some uneven road....sometimes very obvious but sometimes u cant hear it...@@
*
KL city area... 4 years.. about the same as mine alza, just my mileage is higher.

The gearbox oil, i changed 2-3 months ago, using Perodua plus there is a filter too to change. Just that next 2000km, due for next service for engine oil change and spark plugs.

I try DIY whatever i can from time to time, like changing the coolant, air filter, pollen filter, clean throttle body, etc.

Rattling sound from A pillar, there is wires on A-pillar...it is hard to say, have to spend time to find the source of sound as we can't imagine what type of sound so hard to pin point too.... maybe we should do a small TTS... maybe can explore further.

hehehe... mine is 88k and previous trip to kuantan, @90-100kmh, i can get 7.4 - 7.6
Doing another trip to Kuala Terengganu, hope to get the same result.

Instead of buying the spray, i went to my usual mechanic and get them to help me do it for free... hahaha... was very dirty.
*
7.4 to 7.6.. very good.. but i drive 110 mostly... but at coaster road, i pushed a lot... hehe.. my driving style when the mood is there that is why can't get below 8.

mine 2011 haha old model..dunno they layan or not..lol..

think the cabin metal sound is from spare tyre there..(bit already tighten) or sounds like the whole back door shaking sound..it only obvious when passing the road when mostly go into parking area (shopping mall) those kind of cement road...

the dashboard sound like loose edi..and most irritating is the rattling sound around a-pillar. friend say mayb the exhausting mouting ...aiyo..overall car is ok ...just started got all these sort of sounds...not big deal ..but very annoying..lol i guess i changed the audio system causing the dashboard sounds mayb..lol
*
2011... mind 2010, only have dashboard rattling at certain time of a day.. still exploring.

What you can try is to have the rear seatbelts fasten (even no ppl sitting behind) for testing. Do during one of your daily drive, see if helps..

Try tighten the spare tyre...which holding the sparetyre.. maybe loosen.

It is 1 by 1 finding where the sound would comes from.

The A Pillar, you try to open it up and see any 'wire' has loosen or not clipped in place. Also can try to drive without the A pillar cover.. sometimes, it is not locked properly or clipped properly too. Sometimes the 'tinting' guy simply push in, end up the white clip kaki broken.

The dashboard sound i notice some times come from wiper water inlet plastic. I open and discover notice the inlet plastic have gap between plastic and mirror. While you drive on rough road so klip klip sound is actually from there. I add up span, now notice no more still monitoring. Hope it's help
*
Great...sometimes the driver of the car knows better...so have to find the sound first then see how to solve.

My alza considered okay...now slowly see how i can improve further the sound proof...diy of course as got personal source mah.

what is the reserve fuel for previus gen alza ? let say blinking at about 107KM..how long can go ?

Yes.. as bro cleaner and singk mentioned.. What safe for you would be 50km range.

No hard push, just maintain speed will get you safely to the next pits stop for refuel.

I've done few time drive until range meter become --, not pleasant experience ha ha but lucky me still got fuel to go to fuel station.

But cannot solely trust that range meter, my colleague fuel tank empty while range meter show 65km ha ha
*
Ya.. agreed with you... it would be down to how well you know about your alza.. each alza is different.

One thing to share is that if the range indicator goes below 50km, it will show nothing.. :>

But, it's still under warranty.
Thought all new alza with rubber seal?
Sorry, little bit confuse..
*
I think he said put extra rubber seal (D or P type).. I think you can search in internet.

Mostly the existing rubber weatherstrip shrinks overtime under the sun. So adding additional strip / seal would help.

Fuel Shark... ya.. it won't.. even it is a voltage stabilizer, it does not performs well with such a small 'capacitor'.

Getting good voltage will help in maintaining/stabilize the voltage.. some advantages though.
