Where will you recommend to service your perodua car?

I would say go to your nearest service centre since under warranty.

I now pakai my affordable good mechanic and pakai my own affordable engine oil too.

My new alza advansed's floor mat is very small, what type and price of floor mat will you recommend? And where to get it?

Thanks in advanced  smile.gif

I had go for the '3M' rubber floor mat. I top up about RM100-120 long time ago during my upgrade of sound system. That cover the rear where a 1 big piece covering the 3rd row seat when folded down.

I have that covered as sometimes we carry things in and out, so the rubber mat can protect the 'carpet' type face.

Try ask the accessories shop near you, they have few big rolls with diff color to choose from.

what kind of battery protector? got picture?
*
It is a 2 rings padding to place on the 2 terminals. I did not use it after that as it is oily.

It actually to prevent the 'molding' of 'white fungus' at the terminal.

What I did is to wipe the engine bay if possible during every DIY wash. At certain time, I just spray some tyre shines onto the terminals and wipe it off with cloth. That does it.

Hi all

My current car use Silverstone m5 185/55/r15. I'm planning to change to BS Ecopia EP200 195/55/r15. So do I need to change my rim in order to fit new tyre size ?

Thanks for advice !

Yo Alza fans, i know this is an Alza Club session but I am in serious desperation and in need of help.

I am driving an Auto Kenari since year 2006 188k Mileage in total, no modification to it.
Since I got this car not long, its first ever Engine Stall was entering a car park when its still bout 4months old, sent to perodua sc to find out the problem. No problem to be found.

After some time it has random engine stall but not frequent. Most of the time is during traffic jam, when I was trying to shift lane from full stop. Once I turn the power steering it stalled. So I went and check power steering motor, no issue as well.

Up until since last year onwards, the throttle not stable during idle mode (Neutral gear as well as D4 gear with breaks on). The RPM kept from approx. 1100 drop to 600 then rise again and the engine kept choking but didn't lead to engine stall problem.

Mechanic has check spark plug, idle sensor, FCU board, spark coil, cleaned throttle body with chemical cleaner, no issue with all these parts. Still can't find the causes of this unstable throttle.

I am wondering has it anything to do with torque converter / throttle body worn out? Or unstable electricity?

Of cause I service my car always within 5k mileage.
once I accelerate and drive, the engine is as smooth as it was new... So am not sure is there anything wrong with transmission as it shift up and down without any issue. And my kenari can go up until 140km/h without any issue.

Though I am planning to buy an Alza, I want to get this problem fix first before I sell it off sad.gif

Below are the video of engine choking during D4 gear, this happen during N gear as well...  you can hear the noise of the engine is making from this video.

This is a bit troublesome since so many things has been checked.

Have the mechanics check and clean the 'sensor'..like Air fuel sensor?

and also spark plug cable? If machanic got spare one...to have it a try.

Did anyone install the auto car door lock after getting the car? How does it work? Those Honda and Toyota will auto lock after 20 or 30 km/h. I prefer it to lock once I let go the brake.
The Alza got no buzzer but does it have an alarm? I am still waiting for my car therefore not very sure about these items.
Thanks
*
You can install the buzzer during your service in the service centre.

On the auto lock, maybe it is removed in latest version. My Alza stil have the auto lock whenever I pressed brake after getting into the car with the key in ACC or engine started.

Bros,
I need some advise regarding tire. If i wanted to upgrade, whats my option? How much you guys recon to trade in the stock tire. Mileage below 200km. Many thanks. Perhaps someone have replace the stock tired lately can advice me. Cheers

QUOTE(teamjoker @ Mar 24 2014, 01:00 PM)
I change my stock tyre for XM2. I drove to Klang Ban Hooi to trade in RM 80 per tyre.
initialy quoted was rm 100 but later realised i gave them wrong size info.
*
Tyres, do get trade in from the tyre shop for your stock tyres.

Stock tyres are 185/60/15 if not wrong. Can top up to 195/55/15 if want.

What next tyres are good? it depends on budget as well. Michelin and Pirelli are good ones. Currently I'm trying Kumho which surprisingly okay for me. Cant complain much if needed, as price is much lower.

guys i wanna ask, is there any guideline to adjust the headlamp position?

i haven figure out yet, but i notice got 4 adjustable screw to control the overall headlamp position.

any inputs? brows.gif
*
You further see, there should be 2 places only.. there is indicator that you can adjust UP-DOWN and LEFT-RIGHT for each headlamp.

What you can do is, park you car with headlamp shooting a wall. Put a temporary tape on the wall to know where is your initial angle.
Normally, just adjust up down, not too much up as it is going to make a fuss to the incoming driver.

After you adjust it both side, go for a quick drive at dark place (so called), then see it if fits. Else come back to same place, park at original space and re-adjust again.

** Test the high beam too, as you may okay with low beam, but hi-beam shooting the sky. :>

sorry guys... for new alza user... mine is 3 weeks old..

i felt like the brake is a bit less grip compared to my other previous cars.. even the handbrake if i put it on, but my gear at N, my car still moves downwards when i stop slightly on hill .. is it normal?

and i need to brake until the end to ensure i stop... it took quite a long press.. because i drive neo before this, so i dont know whether this is normal or not...

kindly reply whether is it consider a brake problem... my alza only 300km so far...
*
You are talking on the 'foot' brake (parking brake) or the brake we use during driving?

If parking brake, yes, to some extend, it is normal, put your car in 'P'.

If the driving brake, as it is new pads, just give it sometime to break in. But 300km is long enough. Hence, get it adjust at your SC during your first service.

Don't drive so near the car in front of you.

10 is quite loud le bro :S

When I listen USB mp3, I turn one 1 when traffic jam on the Singapore bridge, from 3-4 it is a big jump on sound donno why is that happening. Anyway, stocked sound system quite crappy also. any good recommendation on speaker?
*
10 is normal, if i alone i will pump up to 13-14. It may not sound as loud as standard speakers becos I have changed it to MB without any amp and added a underseat woofer. okay la for entry level.

I don't add amp for the doors as good enough for clear voice. My setting on bass is 2 while treble is 4. The bass is compensated by the underseat woofer. Very entry level i would say.

Oh no~true enough~indeed the stock tyres are just crappy sad.gif but don't want so fast waste money on that since the stocked tyre can use for about haf year right?^^
*
Agreed with you and Eithanius. Stock tyres crapppppps. I previously want to hold on as long as i can with the stock tyres, but ended up uneven wears with steering shaking, changed just in 6 months. The previous pirelli lasted me 2.5 years without complain. Now on Kumho.

I would say that if got budget and cannot tahan the cappy noices, then do it.. also help to have a quieter cabin. cool2.gif

Hi All,

Would like to confirm something with all Bros here.

The speaker size for our Alza is what size?

Front - 6" or 6.5"?

Thanks in advanced.

Those giving comments on crappy tires -  a friend almost killed himself 2 days back, new car advanced model out only for 2 days and he balik kampung, car skidded going downhill and flipped - he quoted something like the rear lost grip!!  ABS??
*
Aiyoyo.. your friend okay? hope nothing serious.

The rear lost grip during downhill... not speeding? Like that the car bye bye lo.

I do agree with Kimi and E, better tyres save lifes. Don't think of wasting $ so fast to change tyres, think of RM1000+- can have safer drive.

As I ride a honda cbr sportbike, I changed the tyres in 1 week and pay for RM900 for that. Don't play play as these tyres saved me few times.

depends on individual preference. Also please note that some station with same brand has different 'power' as i experienced before.

EG. Shell in Tmn Desa - OUT. (3 bikes plus 2 cars confirmed.), Shell in PJS 1 near tmn sri manja - OUT. Caltex - Kesas USJ bound - OUT.

Hi Eithanius,

I did not opt out all shell nor all caltex.

I just listed only the 'station' that I opted out not the brand. yet. flex.gif

Some of actual feedback not just from me, it is also my friends from that stations are:
1. very low power
2. less mileage (170km compared to 250km RM20, city ride on CBR250).
