Dear Pro,

Recently i mentioned i change my engine oil to 10w30 from 10w40.

Sat morning travel to Melaka and temperature slighly increase a bit. Then yest come back at afternoon and temperature increase morw than 90 degress and almost redline and i close the air cond.

Just now i start my car and monitor the engine, found out radiator fan did not spin. When only the radiator fan kick in and spin? Air cond fan is spinning once i open the aircond.

Or is it the engine oil too thin? I phobia going highway now sad.gif

Check itu radiator fuse or anything related to radiator. The radiator fan will kick in when the temperature goes higher than 90 degree. Can only monitor through OBD2.
*
Mean after 90 degree, it only kick in the radiator fan? if not it won't kick in?

it will kick in before that... not sure at what temperature. y not just on your air cond in that case. better than engine overheat. btw check coolant level also.

That's why yest night time i turn my engine on and wait around 10 minutes but the radiator fan won't spin. This morning i reach my office and open my hood and check the radiator fan also did not spin. But weird is the temperature is normal even the radiator fan did not spin, and i did not open my air cond.

The coolant level is there, and i check i guess is ok.

Yes, you can. Just fix the radiator fan then you can travel as usual.

Just some advise. If you are always drive for long distance better use back 10w40 =)

thx bro, just an update.

Just now went to a workshop, then tell him my problem. Then he use some metal hit the radiator fan, then it auto run. Guess the motor weak already.

Mean all this while my main radiator fan did not work, i just depend on the air cond fan blink.gif when the air cond fan did not kick in, how the temperature survive? Just now while waiting the uncle from the workshop i open my hood, both fan did not spin but my temperature still like normal.

FYI, the fan only wil run when it need to. Same to air cond fan.

When driving, the air will go to engine bay. So, barely will notice that the temp will raise up.
Only u will notice that when u stuck in jam. Cuz no air flow go into engine bay.
*
Ya, i do feel it cuz when i stuck in jam during overheat that time my temperature shoot up but when i driving it come down back to normal.

Change the radiator fan, now it spin like normal. No need overload depend on the air cond fan.

If still under warranty u can claim it.
If one side malfunction hard to do it,
Mine did warranty once. Change a small board inside the rear brake lamp.

Dear all,

Anyone encounter issue of the front light car, once i open my car light. The indicator will turn blue, if blue mean the indicator for big light is on. If the indicator did not show blue color mean is normal when i open the light.

The problem come from here, the indicator will have lighter color blue and one of the headlamp light will turn amber and another side headlamp will change to big light. Sometime it will be ok no such indicator prompt up when i open car light. Sometime it will be there and the headlamp will be hairwyre again.

Hi all,

Possible for persona baseline just to add normal speaker to the front door panel? No need to amp, just a normal speaker will do?

As i search through web, some say there is the wyre and some say need to pull direct from the player.

There will be additional bracket need to be install?
