Yesterday night had a small incident wt GaGa. Those who follow will know I had a Shawie running on sports tayar, whilst my GaGa on eco tayar. If u do not know, Shawie not only had similar chassis layout like GaGa, instrument panel also look alike. Other than physical appearance & engine output, basically they're the same species.

Here's the thing, I've been driving Shawie as my daily ride. I'm so attached to the road holding feelings of Shawie, most of the corners I can sliced through without worrying the "tail" will skid. Whilst I was driving my GaGa yesterday night, I have totally forgotten I'm in a SEDAN sleep.gif On the way back home after LDP toll, its an up slope flyover bent to the right joining MRR2. I was taking it 110kph as usual with my Shawie. All of a sudden, the rear end break loose. Instinctly I made the same mistake as any amateur - I jump the gas pedal & slam on the brakes doh.gif As a result of weight shifting due to lift off oversteer, the entire car was brought into an irrecoverable spin. Lucky thing is, I did not make adjustment on my steering wheel, and if I did the car would be spinning to the left. Imagine when the car travelling 110kph on a right bent, momentum to the left, roll steer to the left, and if I make countersteer to the left... I think I hit today's headlines by flying a GaGa off a flyover and landed on a stretch of Vellfire(impot car dealers across the flyover).

The 360'+270' spun to the right, roughly 1.75round brought my GaGa to almost back on track, but engine stalled sleep.gif Right behind me was a prime mover! When I have the time to turn my head to assess(out of rear view mirror range due to the spun angle), the prime mover was skidding as well. The truck driver managed too stopped the truck on time, probably 10ft behind me shakehead.gif I got out of the vehicle, apologized to the truck driver, got lectured for few minutes. As the truck totally blocked the 2 lane flyover, I managed to convince the truck driver to keep the lecture material until next time. I told him I'll be reporting the incident, he can choose to report as well. Rest assured, there will be no insurance claim as there's no damage done. If he reports then I'll get a reckless driving/speeding ticket for that matter.

Lesson learnt. Not the car, not the tayar, its the driver who put themself into danger situation. I will try to remind myself more often that I'm in a sedan with eco tayar the next time I drive my GaGa blush.gif

totally agree with you. ABS, VSC, EBD all can help but end of the day the driver's control is most important.

glad you are fine. that bend to the right is quite sharp. usually not alot cars so will go fast

Morning guys  yawn.gif

Need help here....my gaga behaving weirdly lagii  icon_question.gif
Noticed it occur around 1week. Due to multiple occurence, i knoe there must sumthin wrong.

The problemo is; sometimes i kenot disengage/exit from 1st gear (MT-aichikikai).
So i kenot shift to 2nd gear nor free the gear  sad.gif
What i do is; release the cluth pedal half, then quickly floor it <---do it 1 to 2 times will help me disengage first gear.

Situation not immediately happened as i move out from parking. I start drove around 2-3km, stop at trfic lite, then this gabra situation occur.
Only when in 1st gear. 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th and 4th to 5th no problemo.

-count it: occur 4 times in 1 week/7days
-no weird sound
-during engine off, try masuk all gears can
-MTF since last change not age more thn 20k km
-clutch no change since 2008. still biting, no slipping  whistling.gif

1-enibodi experience dis?
2-clutch EOL sign kaa?
3-gaga clutch use cable or pump or what type, really noon bout it
4-any way to troubleshoot or check for problem and solution?
*
try to change your gear oil first.

Can you describe how is the drum brake noise?
Hi me too bought saga for long distance journey.. So far got sound here and there.. I always go to klang.. Jalan berlubang2 also no worry.. If you drive expensive car sure menyesal..

I think better you buy saga 1.3 now with leather sit..
*
it's like knocking sound when moving. not sure whether the new batch drum brakes still have this issue.

last time i sent my car to SC they use air compressor blow in the sparkplug tube, it did pop out with some pulling. but still...very hard to take out even for them
*
my SC also spoiled my coils twice when changing spark plug, said proton parts problem. i suspect they force it too hard or didn't wait for engine to cool down first. change to proton service no problem so far

Warranty? If the aircon blower doesn't have abnormal grinding sound prior to that incident, I'd suspect it's the control switch gone wonky?

On an unrelated note, can you please check your tangki radiator when the car is cold? I'm not sure whether our GaGa has the same feature, but old generation Mitshi GaGa if tangki not enough coolant, akon will automatically cut off.

maybe aircon blower relay problem

Did u just encountered a heavy rain, drove through a huge pond puddle?  If yes, the oil pressure switch picking pressure signal by how much the actuator gets GROUND. Water will ground all electrical stuff, hence... The last time my waifu had me sked the crap drop out of my pants whistling.gif

i have experienced this, drove thru a puddle engine oil light came on. was going to drive outstation so find a rest area in highway to check oil level and seems fine. continue the journey, after some time the light goes off.

It works. Sounded quite abnormal to me, but let's hear from other CVT owner input. Perhaps v12kompressor have comment about it?

this sound i recorded from engine bay when car idle.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qxg84q6gectfk3t/caridle.mp3?dl=0

Sounds like diesel engine even pump ron 97.

Also, I tried reset the ECU by pulling out the fuse for a minute.

i dont think it is IAFM problem. If is IAFM problem, the sound should be constant. Facing the car, the sound comes from which side? left side, center or right?
*
sounds like from engine.

the sound during engine braking is also from front.

i try change EO to fully syn will solve?

i solved my father's FL windows jerking by applying the lub. he didn't tell me, but i knew myself as i wanted to help him maintain his car (e.g clean the seats, clean aircond filter, check wiper tank, radiator cooler, apply rain repellent etc) whenever i got the chance when balik kampung visit him)

last time i remember one member here got windows jerking problem, visit SC, the mechanic just applied the lub and the problem solved. the thing is the rubber around the windows got hardened and the windows edge rubbed against the hardened rubber and the result got jerking.

i think you can put some silicone lub on it
