if u jaga and change the coolant according to service manual, then water pump still ok. but i u put water only and never flush then u need to change every 80km.
i change at 80k and never change at 160k but next major timing belt will change it.

my mileage now 155k, I did flush once before, change coolant and topup water once. Other times just add water only. Not sure whats the condition of the water pump now. Planning to change it when 160k service, together with timing belt change.

Not necessary. Need to check first if your engine oil is leaking into coolant tank. Easiest way to check is to open radiator cap and wipe ur finger around the inside of there is some brownish buildup. Water pump only fails if there is too much gunk around the fan blade area or the shaft breaks.
Anyways its only RM70 each. Recommended aftermarket brand to use is GMB.
Yes there is. but to replace it you would need to dismantle ur whole gearbox to get to it. Would suggest doing that every 250k km as a preventive maintenance. Consider doing a mini overhaul for ur gearbox. Price around 1k.
common issues. the wire inside that plastic hose thing on the left of the boot putus. Simple RM30 can kautim in accessory shop. they will pull a new wire for u.
Common issue to come from aircon vent, especially during cold weather or night u will hear the rattle even more prominently. power window frames rattle due to the support bar nut inside the door has became loose. just take off ur door panel and retighten all nuts.
Check your crank angle sensor. Most likely kaput or wire near putus.

bro,

after I bought my high mileage hero Persona. I knew before hand the suspension is already quite messed up and making noises. So I brought it to a workshop nearby my house at the time...he changed the lower arms + shock absorbers etc. The brand is SACHS.

Absolutely right bro, I think the suspension is really really very stiff. When I go through bumpy roads or even highways at a high speed (low speed also same), the car floats and wobbles easily even if its a small hole. With that being said, driving at a high speed especially need to pegang and hold the steering properly. If not car sure fly to one side  mega_shok.gif

At the time I thought aftermarket brand will be better, but really regret. Its not even cheap! Now wanna change to stock also cannot since wallet doesn't permit.

How much the stock suspenion costs?
