Hi all,

From Kuching, Sarawak here. I need a recommendation on which workshop can repair my savvy. AMT model.

Since last week the gearbox keep blinking on & off then when I stop at traffic light yesterday the gear shift from 1 to neutral. Since then I cant start the car. Also there was no sound of the electric pump running when you open the car door or before ignition.

One of the Proton SC here said its maybe due to the electric motor or the BOM spoiled. All in all he said repair around 4K....which is too much for me. So any guys can recommend a place in Kuching here can do savvy? Maybe install second hand part for the pump & BOM

Appreciate any input.

Check the oil level for the AMT. There is a clear container on the gearbox.

Yesterday, mine also same problem. Gearbox light came up and gear stuck at 2 or 3. Upon reaching a petrol station, I found the oil level very low. Bought some ATF and fill it up. Now smooth.

The ATF fluid level is fine. Usually even if the level is low the pump would still running when opened up the door. Those 'eee' 'eeeee' sound.

Proton SC here is cutthroat..i dont dare to send there...that's why I need to know in Kuching got other workshop can recommend? my car will need send for repair using tow service at least I know that workshop can repair haha

BOSS ALSO TOLD ME CAN FIT PASSO 1.5 ENGINE TURBO AND WITHOUT TURBO

HE DONT RECOMMEND STARLET BECAUSE TIMING BELT AND YEAR 199X ENGINE

HE SAY PASSO ENGINE IS TIMING CHAIN AND NEWER YEAR AND CAN LAST LONGER,

BOSS IS DOING MODIFIED / TRANSPLANT ENGINE BUSINESS , IS A LEVER HIGHER THAN REPAIR/SERVICE CAR,

HE DONE MY SAVVY CLUTCH MEANS HE CAN DO EUROPEAN ENGINE TOO

The workshop made my clutch pedal lowered and BECOME SO LIGHT , i first not used , but now using the clutch is so easy like in waja manual and effortless. I AM SO HAPPY

if open door no charging sound, possibly its the motor brush worn out.
the charging motor is just like an electric drill. after a while the carbon brush will finish.

either buy a recond one or try to service it.
http://www.mudah.my/Malaysia/Cars-Accessor...ump%20-for-sale

maybe show this video to your mekanik bawah pokok and at least try lah.

the brush cost rm58 if correct.

good luck!

Thanks bro. Then I will try to do myself. Last night cant open up since didn't know how that thing is mounted & bolted. If fail may have to send to workshop haha

It's sad that Malaysia here dont often share on complete DIY guide to repair our own car unlike those UK/US people got complete guide with pic & video. That savoc forum gone also.

unlikely ecu/tcu. get an exact trouble code from foreman. else goto proton and ask them to use computer to check.
possibly just a simple fault like pressure leak or the carbon brush worn out.

I at last let the workshop to modify the AMT to the manual transmission using second-hand parts from kancil. They said t is would be easy to find parts if they are spoiled in the future. I agreed as in my experience repairing the AMT, in Kota Kinabalu it is hard to find a workshop who can properly repair it.

Rm 6.5K for the Toyotard Bakso Auto Engine and Gearbox include labor.
Rm 600 For Custom make Driveshaft. Now JPJ cannot accept any kind of "sambung driveshaft", so must die die custom one set.

Rm 550 for JPJ endorse Runner Fee.

My Savvy previously was M-Line variant, so it does not have any ABS system.
Now I plunk in Bakso/Maiwi Engine, the RPM reading still can get from gearbox speed sensor, but the speedometer and odometer had to get reading from ABS sensor and ABS pump.
So, for now being engine running, auto gearbox no problems, just the Mileage and kmh issues.

I done the conversation at Colorpro Auto (Johor Bahru area).

is it feel faster

if i want to plonk in 1.5  1nzfe instead of  1.3 2nzfe can?

so right now how u wanna track your service interval
*
It feels powerful and faster abit if compare with the original D4f engine. rclxms.gif
Feels like driving an Iriz .

1.5 1nzfe is it engine from Alza? From what I know, Savvy could only convert engine from 1149cc to the most biggest displacement 1300cc.
If you wanna do that, can, could be done it.
But, for the endorsement..... I doubt it couldn't get pass.

For now being, I using phone GPS to know what speed I driving at.
The service interval had to agak agak count by month.

so what happen to your old engine , is it amt or manual

do u pay cash for the rm6500+ , why dont pay deposit or no deposit (promotion)to buy new saga or iriz
*
My old D4f engine was manual variant, it burst in a heavy traffic jamm.
Water and engine oil all went into combustion chamber, lining, conrod, piston ring all severe damaged.
If I want to rebuilt it, yes, it can be done.
But have to fork out at least Rm4000 to do it, some more this price are not include the beltings.

I do consider about to buy another car to replace the Savvy. But others car cannot gave me the exactly same feelings when driving.
Some more, I just bought an Ertiga on January.

If you can bring back the life of this little monster in just a few thousand bucks, why don't do it? hmm.gif

Buy a new saga 2017 cost you 36k, New Iriz around 42k; convert engine toyotard bakso just 8000++ ( I change all 4 new tayar and a New set of brake pads).
Which one is the smartest choice ? whistling.gif

Hi gaisss... My savvy 2011 manual kmh meter sometimes not working, then sometimes jumping up and down. When this problem occur, the gear stick shake and aircond not cold for a while and car feel like jerking (Mostlyly on 5th gear) then i need to downshift and upshift again to keep the car balance. I suspect speed sensor problem lah, any idea? smile.gif Thank you
