Hi fellow sifus
Hope I'm in the correct thread
I wanna change the bonnet dampers (the ones at the back when you open the back bonnet) for my old saga knight aka aeroback , and I'm wondering how to change it myself?
How much will it cost?
Or should i send to a acc shop or workshop to change?

There were some discussion in the previous thread regarding the boot damper struts, here:
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=68516463

There was some problem with the nut attachment.

Thx guys
Will read later once me free
Gots lots to read up

my trunk now is wet with water after raining. wonder where the water is coming from?

yeah ...same here ...lol ...

any idea how to solve it?

Posible sources of rain-water entry:
1) bodywork have holes due to corrosion / windscreen seal leaking.

2) tail-light seals have deteriorated - you can clean
the dirt from the original seal and apply new sealant. Check a few
days later whether the new sealant is holding.

3) capillary action of the contact surface between the rubber lining
and the metal lip of the boot/trunk door. Try this to stop the capillary action:
a) remove the rubber lining/weather-seal,
b) clean the layer of dirt that is now exposed on the bodywork
and apply some polish/wax,
c) wash/scrub the rubber lining/weather-seal of the same, let it
dry and spray some WD40 or apply grease in the groove throughout
the whole length,
d) instal back.

Taillight seals most likely, you can re-seal them easily with silicone or caulk.

ok. thanks.

I applied silicone sealant to my taillight, it worked for a while. After some time the sealant bead detached and rain-water seeped in again. Waiting to redo it.

There's one problem that bothers me, my relay has been shorted resulting in signal malfunction and it happens if the road surface is full of pot holes.

How does suspension or road condition is related to the relay thing, and where is this piece of "relay" can be found?

There are a number of relays, which one was affected?

Signal when turning lane, left/right signal.

The relay that clicks is the right one (unit pengelip belok & bahaya) of 3 relays above the fuses.

The problem could also be due to the switch at the steering column.

This is right below the steering dash box, dang. I'll check it 2moro. Thanks. Though I'm not sure why it goes haywire/shorted after a bump/pot hole.

What is the malfunction, signal comes on by itself, or the signals does not work?
