weekly top-up is not normal, i usually top-up once per 2 months i also suspect somewhere leaking. it should be very minimal usage as it's closed circulation system.

Agreed, not normal. I hardly top up, got also reservoir tank only.

The most common leaking part is at water pump gasket there. You might want to check there during your next service.

Hi all,

Anyone here using IRIZ intake manifold unit as per recommended by Zordaq?

Temped to change since my IAFM second time kaput. But really worried about low rpm torque lose. Need some user review.

Got?

is it normal, the radiator fan still running (to dissipate maybe extra heat) after ignition is off and why the coolant level at radiator keep decreasing especially I on long distant drive. Is it normal?
How frequent I need to top up the coolant? Is it normal if I need to top up every once a week
FYI my auto PE is 8 years old

Could be the radiator hose bocor already.

Mine had the same problem. The hose that is to the left, the one that comes from the radiator to the engine.

I’m not sure, how to check? I already ask my sc to check for any leaking but they said do not find any leaking. How?

either alternator not charging or there's parasitic current leak, usually they will use test light pen or multimeter to check and narrow out which part causing that..

I am assuming my alternator is fine, the voltage reader show that the power is around 12.5v during stall and 14+ during start up the engine. Now my car cannot start, if can sure can go direct to the workshop. Thanks.

You press where my finger is at, if bocor, the crack will be obvious, it will open up and most probably some radiator fluid will leak out.

Same goes to this but it will be hot if you just drove.

It's a sign of the radiator having issues. Happened to me before and the car ended up overheating due to clogged radiator, better get everything checked from the fan / hoses to the radiator itself.

By the way, my persona's steering felt really tight and heavy to turn especially when it is almost turned to the max left or right. The power steering oil tank is full and no leakage at the hoses nearby at all since I had them replaced a few months ago. Is it something to do with steering rack / power steering pump?

Also the steering is not centered, I have to turn it a few degrees to the right in order for the car to track straight but that steering doesn't vibrate or shake during higher speed, how to fix it?

I'm from selayang / kepong area and anyone has recommended workshop / foreman to go to?

If this happens, engine oil might look creamy due to emulsification. Easy to trace.

That happens if leaked or large crack. If little, it just get evaporated at the head area. Happened to me before.

Is there a lot of radiator fluid at the spot where you park?

Most likely your radiator got crack already.
