AquariusdenzQUOTE(davidke20 @ Feb 25 2015, 12:12 PM) QUOTE(davidke20 @ Feb 25 2015, 02:50 PM) Yes and no. BLM/FL the spindle is separated from the bearing. It has the advantage of bearing replacement and cost effective for consumer. However, when bearing is not hard fixed into the spindle, chances are each time the bearing damaged, debris will be grinding through the spindle and make the shaft vulnerable over a long period(until bearing being replaced). FLX(after 2nd batch), the spindle is 1 piece with the bearing built in. No your can't change the bearing only, must change the spindle together. Since the bearing is fixed inside the spindle, it doesn't get damage as often. You often heard BLM/FL/Savvy rear wheel bearing damaged very quickly, whilst never heard of their front bearing got problem. This is because, FLX is now using the similar type of bearing built in spindle. Disadvantage is, since the bearing is built in, if bearing damaged the whole piece of spindle will have to be replaced. Usually the costing is 2~3x of BLM/FL bearings. QUOTE(davidke20 @ Feb 25 2015, 03:21 PM) No say better or no better. Having the newer FLX with the 1 piece bearing, you get less headache. The barang also tahan lama compare to the old type. But ofcourse, the trade off is more expansive compare to old model. The bright side of having the 1 piece bearing is, you save up time going to workshop change bearing every once in awhile. Not only the 1 piece bearing cost 2~3 times more than the normal bearing, it last 3~5 times longer than the normal bearing as well. So, you choose lar

Hi, to all the sifus here... I noticed that my FLX car's horn is suddenly not functioning. Planning to take it to repair when I'm free. In the meantime I'm just wondering is there any way that i can DIY without taking it to mechanics? (Like checking on loose cable etc) Thanks  |

Pls also advise the less expansive way for timing belt replacement.

Get it changed as soon as once clocked 80k km and or above. Try not to stretch it too much. By right, it is still safe to use, but who knows? Getting the belt changed will only cost you some RM300~400. Breaking the belt may cost you the engine overhaul of RM2000. You decide. Remember to change the belt tensioner as well. It's a little expansive, some RM120 if not mistaken. Usually technician will ask you to skip that, but what if before your next belt change then the bearing koyak? It's a good chance you gotta spend another 200~300 to open up the timing belt and change the tensioner again  QUOTE(iskazulka @ Mar 3 2015, 12:24 PM) between 80k-120k. check the timing belt condition first.
