2.0P CVT, 2011, 63k.

Is there any reliable workshop in Klang Valley that can do the 60k service, other than SC.

Thinking of bring my own lube, is Castrol Semi Syn 15/40 suitable, or can start using full mineral?

2.1 For 2011 model the CVT fluid should be using J1 from Japan or J4 from Thailand?

2.2 May i know where is the reservoir tank for the CVT fluids?

2.3 The cabin has got unpleasant leather smell from the seat, is there any good solution? ( i notice this on another inspira that i drove previously)

hope otai back from raya can advise.

I figure out 2011 is using J1, and take out the transmission oil dipstick for checking. The fuilds looks runny, look fresh & clear.

Only problem is the Diaqueen J1 CVT suppose to be green, but the existing fluids is in gold colour.

I reckon that after sometime the CVT fluids will change color from green to gold/amber. Is there anyway to tell if my existing oil is the J1 fluids?

This will affect what i want to do with the CVT fluids.

If the existing is J1, just need to drain and refill.

If it's cap ayam, might need to flush the whole transmission system before refill back.


Apart of above mention, i think the fluids has not been fill to a proper volume. The dip stick has indicator mark for low temp & high temp. I notice that in cold temp the oil level is already on the High temp mark. Can i assume this has been a case of overfill? And this will cause over heating problem?

6k the Manual gearbox is getting from chopshop?

If combine few CVT owner to convert manual gearbox the workshop willing to discount further ?



check the CVT fluids? warna kopi or warna kickapoo

best is red colour

Linlong in Klang PU bodykit quite cheap

PU vs PP vs Fiber vs FRP bodykit Tanya Mr Goggle

Inspira 30-40% heavier than Myvi, fuel consumption higher. Inspira parts some are imported Japan/Taiwan, if those part break down it will be more painful than Myvi.

if compare spec to spec, Inspira is better spec than CT n Vios, but price similarly thanks to gomen protection.

but i think even Mitsubishi price their Lancer 1.8 Auto same price with City/Vios, a lot people will still go for City/Vios..

driving Honda/Toyota = good life. social stigma. college drive proton, got $ tukar Honda Toyata.

10-11km/L also....

Letting go of stock Proton Inspira Plum red front bumper, any taker??

RM 250. Not include fog lamp.

Need fog lamp here got>> http://www.mudah.my/Mitsubishi+lancer+gt+o...mp-42949763.htm

This 1 is black botol.

There is another type in red bottle 5w40 Mitsubishi full synthetic http://www.lelong.com.my/mitsubishi-fully-...6-12-Sale-P.htm

What is da different? same?

The Mitsubishi oil in Lazada cannot use Voucher to discount.

But if you buy it using Maybank card on Wednesday can get 10% discount.

In case anyone here interested in the manual book for the CVT gearbox http://aamcoftp.com/sites/aamcotech/assets..._cvt-manual.pdf

Previously i though the gearbox is not serviceable, but not really the case according to the manual. Hope some genius in Malaysia will be able to provide service on CVT

Lowyat member discount 20%

Jadikan RM 200

how you differentiate the sound whether coming from engine or transmission? they are side by side...

i notice that at low speed 30-50 kmh when the rpm hovering 1.2-1.5k rpm, there is high chance engine bay have kruck kruck sound. but if you rev it to 2-2.5k rpm then most likely there won't be any. looks like the ecu and not sure whether to shift up or shift down the gear and the rpm meter end up going back & forth... (in the context of a real manual car, there will be similar experience when the driver using 5th gear for a very low speed cruise and once it go up hill the car start to choke)

maybe changing to 100% manual mode, worry no more

Selling metallic light blue car sticker, 3 pcs for (door beam x 2 + dashboard beam x 1) as per photo = RM 20.00. Reason for selling, i buy too much material that actually enough for 2 car...

Size wise, i already cut it into size that suits my inspira, buyer need to stick on their own & trim it. Please refer to the video link on the instruction:

Vdeo

Door beam quite easy, can finish 20 minutes without using any tools. But for dashboard strongly recommended to get the car shop sifu to stick it for you. I having difficulty to handle the curve and slope area, which ended up with a lot of wrinkle due to poor skill and no heat gun.

normally how many more km the car can go after the Refuel alarm pop up?

The alarm usually pop out after burning 48 Litre of fuel.

Presuming fuel tank left 11 litre, 11 x 9 (1lire:9km) = 99km??

Seems a lot.

Premium spec with Kenwood touch screen HU maybe can consider. I get my 2.0P lower than 48k though.

If he sell the car as private seller, press it down to RM 40~43k. No way the used car seller going to buy it RM48k.

actually quite easy to test the CVT. load the car with 3 people and open the aircon, pay attention 1,300 - 1,500 rpm @ 20-50 kmh whether the engine bay got any metalic rattlesnake sound. Most likely the car will have this sound occasionally, can you live with that? Or to test it further, find a route nearby with a slight uphill slope, take it to1,300 - 1,500 rpm @ 20-50 kmh chances are you will hear this sound also.

In highway with > 1 people onboard, there is not much of pick up from the car @ 2-2.5rpm 100-120kmh range making it not much of fun in over taking. But you have the option to shift it to manual mode and down shift to 5th gear @ 3,000 rpm++ for more powa. Previous post 2 weeks ago there is an owner sharing his frustration on CVT Inspira when cruising through the hilly Karak highway, pick up is lacking. But this is mainly due to the kerb weight of 1,350kg + CVT transmission combination. The car is heavy and you cant compare it to vios/city that weight 300-350kg less when it comes to pick up.

The CVT is design more for fuel economy, you can expect 1L/11.5-12km in mix city/hightway 50/50 drive, and 1L/15-16km in 100% highway. Not many AT 2000cc car that weight at 1350kg that can do much better than this.

For more pick up, the ECU can be remap and making the gear up shift take place much early, but i reckon this will burn more fuel also.

Nobody so free go empty their tank completely just to get the full tank mileage la. Just pump max after fuel alarm, reset meter, then take the mileage divide by the Liter of fuel. Roughly can get 11.5km/liter 50/50 highway city. Depends on many factors.100 inspiration owners will have 100 fuel economy. But for sure you can't expect Myvi saga vios city fuel economy.
