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.

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.

Thanks in advance

what a nightmare
I send my Alza to another SC to check, same result. solenoid system malfunction.
no choice, ordered the parts to change it and 2 days later call and say no stock for the whole set,but they do have the individual one.
To save their time and work, they recommend to change all 5, because testing 1 by 1 takes up too much time
and guess what, it's half the price, instead of 5k, now just need to pay 2.5k.
they could have done that right from the beginning.
Hope they dont mess it up
