guys, im planning to soundproof my Alza soon.. which areas should i focus first?
doors? floor? roof?

Any recommended shop?
*
You might want to change the tires first if you have not done so..the tyres does give most sound.

I have done roof, doors, wheel arch with pillars foaming.
This improved the door closing, some improvement from doors. But now the tyres getting old and harden, so not comfortable when driving above 60kph.

Next target is the floor and 2nd level door sound proof. Should be DIY when have budget and time.

Last time, i did the roof, doors like 2 days (split job)... then balance sound proof pads on the rear door and wheel arch.

Then 1 day for the foaming of A pillar and door sills.

Ya...it is kind a big tasks... see how la.

Hi Kiefer, thank you for your reply, yes i have tried Google map, it behaved the same. I have tried from 10 times drive.. there was one or two times where everything works properly (waze, google map, car's navigation works at the same time).. the rest are completely disaster, phone&car are unable to detect any gps.
Because of this inconsistency, i hesitate to go to the SC.
*
You may one to test one thing.. when it is completely disaster.. try get your passenger to open the window and have the phone out there.. see if works.. if yes, then i suspect the tint.

There are other brands too..

Rinse with water after applying. You may need 2nd application since first time applying.

Sharing some work done...

I have done front floor sound proof. DIY, but found the driver seat side floor is wet, not sure where the water comes from.
I check front behind the paddles, nothing there, checked bottom undercarriage, is fine too. Passenger side is clean and dry. Need to check again later.

The sound proof is from front floor till the back row floors. Also did 'under coating' at 4 wheels areas. Took out tyres, banana and 'paint' the inside.

Overall improve little where the high pitch from tyre noise is improved. more subtle sound.

And today did changed the rims and tyres too and further improved liao. I changed to 195/55/15 too.. no upgrade in size. the rims is wider 7jj instead of 5.

Bro, check you buzzer wiring near pedal area at firewall, water can seep in from there.

I will check again. Thx.

Updates: the buzzer connected to the side and rubber seems fine. I have painted with undercoating..so later see if still wet floor.

Bro,

What the sound proof u put on floor??
*
I have balance sound proof materials..so use. I would need a mat to cover on top of the pads.

Many ppl tried and pay over thousand to do where outcome not as expected. so DIY as i diy the doors, sills and roof previously.
I did not take pix as my hands are very dirty that time. It took me 5 hours just the front floor so called.

Now i have done partially, i would know what materials needed too later. Dont expect it will be as quiet as lexus.
Hope my source or friend still would sell to me...

bro, what ind of material you use for under coat? bitumen?
*
It is rubberized spray for under carriage...can get from ACE.
I took out the front banana and spray. I did not spray on the banana as i have a foam paf behind the banana already.

The rear, just jack it up...clean, dry and spray.

oh... okok..... i can do it on my house Saga BLM, the NVH is bad. no firewall insulation, barely empty in fender, really.......  shakehead.gif

Ya.. I have a friend that has BLM.. it is bad when first time sit on it. the CVT is all the way.
Tyre sound is worsen as he change the tyres..forgot what brand already.

I did one Saga BLM too, my the other friend's car, diy together. Did the level 1 on doors, foaming 4 sills, rubberized coating on 4 wheels area and a foam to block sound on the fender side.
It is improved as he mentioned. The doors better now, much solid feel but there are gaps near the windows area which need further improve if needed.
I told him to change the tyres first if can, but he wanted to see if this sound proof helps.

If you gonna do it, take off the banana, you can see many gaps from front wheel to the front doors area. What you can do is to get a big good sound proof (about 3ft by 0.8ft) and block that area..
I got this from the friend of mine it is like a compacts foam with different compression and slot into that gap. Then paint the rubberize coating on the needed area. Also if you want to paint the banana leaf..can too.

Just aware not to simply spray where the 'holes' will spray to engine side. you may want to temporary use a tape to cover the big holes first then take it off after.

You need like 2 cans of the coating.. each about rm22 and lots of OLD NEWSPAPER.

Car is 3 month old. I think the way they design the air conditioner cannot do much with the roomier alza and it do took a long time to reach a comfortable level during afternoon.

What level of temperature you set?
Is your setting of air channel is front vent? Meaning no mix of leg area or upper vent?

Hi guys,

Just to mention I have made some progress into the Myvi/Alza OBD2 project - gearbox sensors are readable now including ATF temperature, gear position, activation of lock-up clutch and solenoid conditions/voltages.

To those who have already bought it, I will post the update at my site soon, where you can just follow the instructions. Will announce when ready smile.gif
*
Just to follow up.. any progress on this? what OBD2 you using? Which model as many out there, most said not for alza

All engine sensors have been captured, and the gearbox is still WIP (due to the app's limitation of displaying data rather than the sensor capturing process itself).

Thx Bro Colin for getting my odb2 BT and torque running.

Cheers.

Dear All,
I need some help. My Alza fuel meter is having some problem. Normally after I pump full petrol...the gauge will show range of apprx 432 or 440km. After that..i will reset the trip to zero. Then after few days driving, can see the fuel finish so fast and the range also drop very fast. Only reach like 292 or 300km.

Can anyone tell me what happened? My car is only 1 1/2 years old.

Please help.
*
Range not really accurate. If your trip A or B, full until blinking, how much?

Try have the range reset and let it calculate again.

You might need to have your car service like spark plug, filter, throttle clean if needed.

As what Cleaner said...driveshaft could be the issue as the 'knuckle' may have worn out.

Hi,
I'm a newbie here.
I have a big problem with my Alza which i like to share here and seek for advice at the same time.

i bought a 1.5 AT alza in 2011 which i rarely drive, mileage is only 18K to date.

Recently, there is an indication on dashboard showing "AT" whenever i drive. But its unpredictable when will the indication shows up. Its totally random.
Whenever it appears, i have to restart my car to make it disappear, otherwise it will feels like its not accelerating as if the gear doesnt switch to the next level. I also tried driving without aircon on, and its ok, the AT is not showing.

2 days ago, i finally send it over to p2 SC for a check up.
The report said "valve body problem cod P0743-Lock Up solenoid system malfunction."
and it cost RM5,882.70 for this parts.  shakehead.gif

I have not agree the replacement and I wonder if any Sifu here have heard about this problem and mind to share what other solution i can go for a try? before i spend so much for a car that i only drives occasionally.  doh.gif

Thanks in advance
*
AT....it could be the connection / wire from ECU to gearbox having issue. check that part first or change that wire first if not expensive.

Some myvi having this issue and changing the wire sort it out.
