V4 - WELCOME TO LYN ALZA THREAD! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif thumbup.gif

user posted image

The 2022 Perodua Alza was officially launched on July 20, but with the order books having been opened for it on June 23, around 30,000 buyers look set to get the MPV with the sales tax exemption intact, following the government’s government that the SST exemption can to be applied to any new vehicle booked by June 30 and registered before March 31 next year.

The Alza is available in three variant forms, and as announced during the launch, the price starts from RM62,500 for the 1.5L X, rising up to RM68,000 for the mid-spec 1.5L H and RM75,500 for the range-topping 1.5L AV, all on-the-road excluding insurance. These prices are of course with sales tax included.

Maybe to add on remember not change SP3 automatic gear oil.
It's normal practice outside mechanic will change this type of oil to you.
Use normal Dexron 2 or 3 will do. If you have budget, use AISIN.
I'm using PERODUA DEXRON III. Maybe consider use BARDAHL DEXRON3 in future as I trust BARDAHL product.

Ya...you have the right pix of the bottle?.. out there there are SP3 (red cap), DIII (green cap) or even daihatsu...which one is the right one?... i think a pix of this will be great.

"Alza uses D3-SP (which is a Dexron 3 - "special product", guess some special formulated to suit to the GB).

Sifus, Correct me please and I will update this in front page.

"Alza uses D3-SP (which is a Dexron 3 - "special product", guess some special formulated to suit to the GB), using type 4 ATF from toyota might cost you your GB (which some mechanics gonna tell you,, alza use the same GB as toyota hence toyota ATF will do good to Alza)."

For Toyota, I think this is the one.

I can't remember really. I think 1k is mostly checking only. If change engine oil just change. An have free labour for first 3 service. I opt out of the windscreen washer, coz not really using it.

Just complete my 70k service. =)

from what I remembered..4 years ago in 1k servis. normally they will show us what to be changed/service.

I opted out these:
1. windscreen washer
2. battery connector patches (donno what it is really named liao)
3. battery water

I just do:
1. engine oil + oil filter
2. add cabin filter / AC filter. (note that you can get good price outside about rm18 a pc or in lowyat now).

I think have to put warning on first page. I kena from outside mechanic. Uses the red cap SP3. Even the spare part shop says its the correct oil. WARNING, ALZA CANNOT USE SP3. You cannot buy the D3-SP outside. You have to go back to Perodua to change ATF. I just changed back to D3 green cap today after using SP3 for 6000km. There is a big difference in the gear box. I need to reflush again later. Very troublesome.

Let me update the fist topic again on this as warning.

What is the difference when u swap from sp3 to d3.

D3 D3... I am using SP3 now. shoot... all mechanic and spareparts shope getting wrong info liao..
the manual did mentioned D3-SP...as this is not found outside...yet there are D3 and SP3...this could be the reason for the confusion. D3-SP, end up sp3..wtx.

I am changing to Toyota Type-IV next month as well as the filter. Searching for Daihatsu DIII-SP if can...

Did see at Toyota forum. If the gear box using type 4 atf so D3 cannot u. But if the gear box using D3 atf, can use type 4 atf because type 4 is higer grade than D3. Cannot confirm the statement coz i read at the forum only.

Can consider Motul ATF-1A, which is a perfect fully synthetic replacement for the mineral based D-III. Price wise is still pretty affordable at RM48/litre.

Here is the Product Data Sheet.

No need to use untest hid/led. Get good bulbs like philips extreme vision or osram nightbreaker unlimilted.

If you still insist using hid/led, normally the back cover will not become a problem. Problem come from bulb length that you have to adjust headlamp alignment to get good focus from your bulb

how can you have x10000 difference by paying slightly higher price... tongue.gif but it's true that xm2 performs better than silverstone tyres, it's the same case for my house saga BLM. change to xm2 and you can feel the difference especially in the wets.

Ya..silverstone is really stone.. they promote that it last much longer.. of course, hard tyres.

I also changed to XM2 in this recent tyres, going up genting matching the speed of Vios going around the corners, the yoko in the vios was 'screaming' and screectching sound.

Correct tyre pressure is good to monitor from time to time. I found 30lb to be good fit for comfort, 32lb seems harsh for me on rough roads.

xm2 will be noisy by the end of it's life, it's a longer life tyre compared to m3 as well. my house saga blm have xm2 which is 70k km mileage and the thread is about 2mm from TWI still, but the thread block is already showing chipping mark, but no crack still. maybe the saga NVH sucks so i feel like it's really irritating when i pass rough roads.

Ya.. tyres will be noisier when it is old.
70k km is dxxx good liao.

Noise level depends on many things for different cars. I sat on Saga BLM 1.6 before, it is jialat with stock tyres. and the FLX model, the engine sound, gearbox sound, and road noise.. my friend changed to a little bigger rim and tyres.. lagi jialat.

My Alza now is 5 yr old now. I have plans in place now.
1. DIY Clean the AirCond and change the filter. (Done) now aircond is fresh and colder.
2. Change ATF DIII and ATF filter (this saturday)
3. DIY Painting project. Started getting the 'frame' ready for covering during painting job. Putty - Material ready for some touch up of dings and deep scratches.
4. Undercarriage 'painting'

Has anyone encountered petrol fume issue with their alza.

I pumped full tank on my alza with engine off (no top up, I let the petrol gun nozzle auto trip). No petrol fume the moment I entered the car. Petrol smell appear after 30 seconds or 100 Metre travel. It last for about 10 seconds then the smell goes off.

The car is 2 years and 6 months old. The petrol fume only started to appear recently. Anyone who has encountered the same issue and know what is going on kindly shed some lights. Thanks.

I will complain it to the service center on next free service. Need to do some homework before that. Can't put too much hope on them.

Anyway I thought if filler cap it would trigger check engine light because of evap sensor. On the fuel filter part I will hint them hopefully they would do the pressure test.

Me too, tyre noisy, at 73k km (1st set)

Alignment slightly out, think of waiting to do it when chg tyres (maybe 80k km) but dunno is it the correct decision to delay.

In jb, I survey xm2 195 55 15 is RM250 per pcs.
CC5 has promotion for same size. Anyone can give review CC5 vs xm2?

I'm wondering how would the petrol smell enter the cabin due to faulty fuel cap. Anyway I'm really appreciate your suggestion. I will note that to the service center if they couldn't diagnose the petrol fume issue without reproducing it.

Just had my Alza changed ATF (D3) and ATF Filter. It is smoother with much lesser jerk when driving. Will need to monitor the differences.

I checked my Alza's car owner's manual, D3-SP is the one stated. Not sure about newer Alza which has newer type of gearbox. Anyone can double check.

Just to make sure that we have the right information for both type of gearbox.

Hi. Since you have been playing around with the ATF change, can I know if you happen to know if perodua service center do allow ATF change only instead of taking whole package? Do they do AT filter replacement? How about ATF flush, do they provide the service?

Hi All, I am new and recently purchased Alza Advance drive for few days and my comment as below.

1. Yea...there is a little rattling sound from the driver seat door when driving and I couldn't find where exact come from.
2. Don't know what sound from back left during driving when by pass the bump. Sound like something loose, couldn't find exact come from too. sweat.gif
3. Some dirty stain on the roof top guess the technician accidentally "finger print" on it sweat.gif
4. It come with the solar and tinted glass but SA said better change it cause it's still hot. Can any one recommend a good tinted brand with reasonable price? I drive my children outstation and i am very concern on the solar and security of theft breaking from the window. Nowadays... scary. It is need to change all or just add a layer will do?
5. I think of changing the PVC Mat cause the original look smaller can't cover all sweat.gif Any good recommendation?
6. Yea... can hear the engine sound from inside car... is it normal? How to improve the sound proof?
7. Saw the post before about the Tyre issue...really scare me too as i drive outstation often. Really need to change for the latest Alza Advance? The original is silverstone with Titanium rim.
8. Key alarm without sound makes me not comfortable... if I change the alarm will it affect the immobilizer and void the warranty?
9. The horn sound is too soft and terrible to me... will need to change

I would like to seek for the Sifu advice here for better improvement.

Many thanks smile.gif

Hi Doraku, noted with thanks. I am not sure what brand is the original tinted and i feel hot specially on the front windscreen. That's reason I am thinking to change a better one. My SA recomended me Rhinepro from USA by Coolworld cause he said V-Kool is expensive compare to Rhinepro. Any comment on the Rhinepro D7 VS V-Kool Elite + REM 5mil?

1. My alza has the rattling sound too. It's from the B pillar until now still unable to get it fix because it does not always produce the sound. It just magically temporary disappear upon car service day.
2. Lately my car has the same sound too when getting over speed bump. It only happens after the car running for hours. I did the diagnose by myself. Not the lower arm bush and not the sway bar bush as well. Suspect from absorber or the mounting.
4. The tinted brand is llumar. Yes the heat rejection is so so only. I suggest to apply another layer instead of replacing it unless you are going to replace it with something cost thound/s.
6. I can hardly hear the engine sound when my car was new. It has been getting "roarer" now since my trip to genting long ago.
7. I have been using the Silverstone stock tire as well. Does not seems perform as bad as reported. Only issue is annoyingly noisy.
8. You can just add a alarm buzzer without replacing the alarm system. Better still you might want to get the module set which include alarm beep, side mirror auto fold, and brake door lock.

May I know where is the B pillar? sweat.gif Engine noise roar after Genting trip?? Seriously?? shocking.gif My SA said I can send the car to P2 SC to check it out and they will fix it if required. He also suggested to add a layer instead of change all. Tomorrow will check out the Rhinepro. So far i satisfied with the SA, he is very friendly and helpful.

Yea, you are right and good suggestion on the 4 in 1 module set, will check which model is better to go. biggrin.gif

P2 sc or service dealer got buzzer, last time they charge me rm50 iinm to install buzzer. But have to make sure they install by punch hole at the rubber cover at the firewall, not directly through firewall which can make your driver side footwell flooded when raining

Well I remember I was unable to know if my car engine is running when idle because it was so silent that I have to listen to it carefully. Since after a harsh Rev I can hear the engine sound even when idle. Not loud though.

Congrat V4.

Hi All, I am new and recently purchased Alza Advance drive for few days and my comment as below.

1. Yea...there is a little rattling sound from the driver seat door when driving and I couldn't find where exact come from.
2. Don't know what sound from back left during driving when by pass the bump. Sound like something loose, couldn't find exact come from too. sweat.gif
3. Some dirty stain on the roof top guess the technician accidentally "finger print" on it sweat.gif
4. It come with the solar and tinted glass but SA said better change it cause it's still hot. Can any one recommend a good tinted brand with reasonable price? I drive my children outstation and i am very concern on the solar and security of theft breaking from the window. Nowadays... scary. It is need to change all or just add a layer will do?
5. I think of changing the PVC Mat cause the original look smaller can't cover all sweat.gif Any good recommendation?
6. Yea... can hear the engine sound from inside car... is it normal? How to improve the sound proof?
7. Saw the post before about the Tyre issue...really scare me too as i drive outstation often. Really need to change for the latest Alza Advance? The original is silverstone with Titanium rim.
8. Key alarm without sound makes me not comfortable... if I change the alarm will it affect the immobilizer and void the warranty?
9. The horn sound is too soft and terrible to me... will need to change

I would like to seek for the Sifu advice here for better improvement.

Many thanks smile.gif

mmmm, I see if I can add in some here.

1. Troubleshooting rattling can be tough...if B pillar, where the sound is from B pillar top, there could be some loose wire. If below, there could be some loosing nut or sound from the seat belt mechanism. Try with out seat belt fasten and with...

2. is it knocking sound? from front or back? Try get SC to tighten undercarriage.. I have this sounds.. 2 types. knocking when going thru bumps, suspect absorber mounting. if 'sii-ssak', could be the bush - but no sound when/after raining..heheheh

6. Engine noise... when push?? or idle? really donno as each person's quietness / loudness level is diff.
been up to genting few rounds.. so far so good. Check your engine oil.

8. Add a buzzer will do it.

1.My rattling sound is from bottom. It sounds "zee zee zeee ze" repeatedly. It actually sound like thin plastic hitting metal vibration sound. I am unable to record the sound because it kinda too soft. Kinda loud to my ear though.

2. Mine actually sound "nyik nyek". It is actually friction sound between metal and rubber.

Finally found the sound was from the mounting monitor connection gap between the screen. Also the rattling sound gone after the tinted. Maybe they fix it while installing the film. And my new Alza also considered old even it was manufactured in 2016 suspected explored under the sun in P2 HQ cause there are serious water mark on windscreen and roof top. After polish and wax getting better. Yea...installed the 4 in 1 buzzer too. 😊

Drive belt...120,000 have not change once?

I changed the belt when water pump leaking, the belt wear out already...forgot when i changed it...but normally 40k to 60k i think to check and replace if needed. Sometime, looking at it seems good, but need to look at belt inner part for cracks.

The noise is where the belt loosen, best to change it as once putus, is inconvenient. The belt not expensive...definitely less than 100.

I wonder why...2nd row so far okay for my parents and my kid during noon time.

Only starting full blast and then slow down to 3 or 2. The temperature is about 60% dial.

Adding a fan would help but best to have a clean cabin filter and do a simple cleaning would be good.

I just diy foam cleaning and change filter too. At night, my kid asking to lower down the fan as cold

Oh ya..set the fins pointing up so it goes to 2nd row via the ceiling and you should have the blower set to front outlet plus inner circulation.

Hi all.

Just got my alza. Anybody having issue where the interior light wont shut off when the door is closed. I've set the switch to "door" at the light switch.

And there is a red light blinking on the meter cluster even when the alarm is not armed.

Any idea?

Can I know what is the sound as mentioned? I have a new FL alza advance and yes the B pillar is kinda noisy (not loud though, like Zee ze zeee ze), mostly when tiny vibration for example braking down the car or traveling on even but rough road. I can't get the issue rectified because it does not always happen.

The interior light will dimmed out after like 20 sec after all door closed. It will off immediately once u on the alarm.

The red blinking is where the immobilizer kicks in with or without alarm on.

hot weather is very punishing now. overall, the aircond is quite weak.. so so. still sweating waist down. cold air does not circulate well from front to back.

beside cleaning the filter, i wonder if adding the extra fan would make the air cooler, hence bring down internal cabin's temperature faster?

going to invest a hefty RM300 for good fan, from Avantech.. will let u guys know of the outcome soon.

Finally get it changed today with 4 Tyre.
Surprisingly, the belt consider in good condition but there is some small sand stick on the inner part of the belt thus causing the irritating noise when step pedal.

My new Alza Advance car (only used 10 days with 700KM mill) engine died while in idle (10minutes) at parking. When I check indicator, fuel gauge says still got 52 KM of fuel.

Sent to SC, SC said fuel finish. After they top up fuel, they want to release back.

I ask them to do further check. And it seems they cleared the electronics.

My question:
1. Is the Fuel to Kilometers estimate so bad? 52 KM already engine died. Is it standard to accept 52 KM error deviation?
2. Anyone else had this issue?

IINM, mine goes to lowest level at around range 120km, and start blinking around 100km.
Lowest range I go (very seldom) is 60+, then indicator '---' already. I guess this is the characteristics of alza.
Because my sister myvi at range 15km, also no issue.
I never encounter mati enjin before due to fuel issue.

Me think not enough mileage for ecu to calibrate your fuel reading. And it can happen, my friend alza fuel finish at 60km at the entrance of petrol station ha ha.

As for me, never have that problem eventhough few time range meter already show ---

I have Myvis, even after no fuel estimate indicator still can drive to refuel. Quite strict/safe to be refuelling at 60+. But interested if any other Alza that can reach 10km estimate without refuel.

Tq for sharing!

SC also said not enough mill for ECU. But 52km = no fuel is very big measurement gap for a new car.

Your friend is worse, mine at least got 8km buffer lol. But what that means, I have to ensure I cant go low 60km also, very safe and strict limit else car kaput on road... dry.gif

I only tried once. Where below 50km range..it shows ---
I track it by odo and i have to get to next station about 25km, with steady 90kph, then pump to full. Based on what i remembered, i still have like 5 litre left.

I dont dare to go further.

I think new car still have to "learn" to get a more accurate range. And on off, I reset thw range at some 1 year period to let it calculate again.

i normally refer to the owners manual.

If not wrong, there is a knob there (same as you reset the odometer). Switch it to range / FC, then long press to reset. Best to refer the manual as i don't have it with me now.

Pre fl alza can use same size brake pad as proton waja.

Fl alza use same size brake pad as vios.

Many brand to choose from, last time me using p2 brake pad buy at spare part but seems not as good as pre install from factory.

Use proride brake pad 1 time, good grip but harder on the disc

Hi. Can u know if anyone has the same issue where rust found at rear brake drum cover as well as the battery hold down bracket?

I reported the issue to perodua SC Glenmarie but the service advisor told me those are not under warranty so cannot claim. Any idea? I have yet to check to perodua warranty center though.

hows your tinted spec ?

IRR % ?

TSER % ?

i think this 2 factor sufficient to explain the current situation you face.

provided that, you have a clean cabin filter.

Using 195/55 since 6th month new car time. 195/55 gave little better handling with harder side walls. 185/60 more comfort. Personal feeling la. But regardless which size, best to take better tyres like mich.

Hi Kiefer , my initial plan was to fit Bridgestone Potenza RE 080 185/60R15 but not sure will it be too bouncy. On the other hand I would like to equip with Pirelli P1 Cinturato 195/55R15 . Cost for both tyres were about 40 MYR each ...... still hesitating which to go for.

Assume you're using Michelin ? Tread wear and performance so far so good ?

I replaced my factory Alze FL front brake pads to Akebono Ceramic pads. Feels slightly better in terms of emergency braking, during Genting downhill it doesn't fade at all. It cost about 120MYR for a set. Do look for Toyota NCP93 model.

If you plan to get a resonable brake pads, i recommend TRW semi-metallic brake pads and it disc rotors. Used both of my peroduas and VW. Does quite a good job but only drawback was plenty of brake dust.

I have clocked like 15k on the Mich XM2. So far so good. It is quieter than my previous Pirelli (P7 i think or older model) and Kumho (same 195/55).

During same cornering speed up Genting, Mich don't screech sound compared to the other 2. Maybe the P1 is better now, I can't comment as not using.

Bridgestone...long time tak pakai..so not sure how now.

185/60 and 195/55, if you like a little better 'performance' and cornering..195/55 is better. Our stock shocks are soft as we all know. Don't overspeed especially over corners, know the limit and your limit too...Alza not a sport car..hehehe

*I just travel to Kuantan via Kuala Pilah route.. with dry and some wet... this mich is good for me. Now it is due for alignment and balancing. bruce.gif

My concern to all Michelin tyres is their tyre wear...... Well i think i just go for 195/55R15

Tyre wear is subjective bro. Soft compound tyres would give better grip but wears out faster...if want to have longer wear period, hard tyres like s*stone or china brand would do, but sacrifice noise comfort and harsh ride.

Also if tyres that has bigger threads holes so called would be noisier.

My average mileage a year is about 20k km. and if a set of tyres provides 2-3 years...very good liao and a proper maintenance like alignment and rotation helps too.

I am a biker too, so choosing good grips tyres safer.

I see , yea your info about the tyre lifespan helps alot. I do about 35k per month and my ori S*stone lasted me about 46k now with 30% left.
I don't want to get any eco tires to compromise for cornering grip and braking grip ( Alza std brakes seriously pain in the butt ) that's why i would pay slightly more for safety concern.

I've found RE003 for a fair amount of price per set but yet with my high mileage running i can't be keep changing every 1 year .... lol

Maybe tyre price in Johor bahru is higher. Ps3 here selling RM260 per PC, just RM10 up on xm2. Maybe you can provide review on ps3? I did survey before change, but ultimately decide on xm2, due to satisfaction from previous use.

My price breakdown is 250x4 +6% &35 for camber screw.

i think most people knew already about how good is PS3.. even with almost 20% thread left, still grip in dry.. its all round winner tyre.. but the thread-wear maybe a bit below average..
usually i change every year for 2 pcs, not all around which cost quite high.. but for performance with soft sidewall, maybe not suitable for hard cornering.. wet n dry can say very good, not as silent as yokohama dB, but still good too..

35k per month?...typo ke..u mean 35k per year? Hehehe

It is hard to get long mileage tyrea with good grip...if your tyre shop good, u can ask them on the records they have.

Priorities these so u know what comes first..then maybe easier to decide.
1. Grip
2. Comfort low noise
3. Mileage
4. Budget.

like i highlight earlier in this thread, i got 12" mohawk in the trunk, so i dont really notice if the tire will be noisy tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif

but it's kinda soft, cornering a bit flimsy, not so firm.

but alza is not those day layan corner vehicle, so i drive slow slow la

but during rain, i drive with confident, and faster than dry time.

lastime oem silverstone m5, i drive slower than bicycle. vmad.gif

Better still also install reverse camera and roof camera.

Also if you want to monitor engine temperature, can install temp meter. Pic from my kancil. Bought the meter from forklift spare part shop. Cost below rm200 with adapter and installation

Anyone had this issue where you left you car idle for like 2 days. Then you start and switch on the AC and there's metal engage sound from compressor.

Send SC PJ, they told me it's normal for Alza.

it happens when you park at slope and either you switch to P and let go of foot brake before you engage parking brake brake, or.... your parking brake doesn't apply fully, it move a bit and the P claw biting the gears. Is kind normal especially on slope.

on flat road, engage P without setting parking brake also will make you hard to shift from P to R. and is a bad habit.

agree!.....should stop the car, press foot brake, then switch to N, then parking brake, release foot brake to see it hold the car, then foot brake again to switch to P. well this is my habit.

It's not normal if heavy smell unless you stayed very near to the source for too long or you have the aircon ventilation turn on.

Do you guys also have this issue where alignment is perfect. But on a straight road if hit any small bumps or uneven road. Car will glide to left.

This issue acknowledged by SC ,now on queue list for HQ inspection.

I have this problem when i rotate my tires front to rear , rear to front without doing balancing or alignment.
When the geometry of suspension is not properly aligned it could happen to.

Our malaysian road is not properly flat instead lean 1 to 2 deg to the left for water dispersing and our large 42litre fuel tank is on the left side rather than sitting in the middle like other cars.
A little pull to left when you let go steering is normal la i think. Just my 2 cents.

those cars have been there for i-duno-how-long....

previously i bought my car by knowing the engine number/chassis number cause the number keep increasing...
well, i bought new model...

Nope it's not normal. My alza advanced roof monitor does not produce any sound.

The problem with my roof monitor is the monitor unable to close at one click. I will need to press the release button while pushing back the monitor to make it a fit close. To settle the issue I will need to send the car to vendor at rawang. Don't like the hustle and bustle so I just ignore it.

I have this too. On hiway, the road normally angle left for water to run off..this could be issue.

You can try have left side tyre pressure a bit more.

But just slight left only. That is how I understand

Ya i guess this too, because most of time pull slightly left was in highway. If in this case later I instal front strut bar will it be help?

Strut bar / Strut brace will not help to correct suspension geometry instead it acts as a brace to stiffen both strut tower section thus help minimize flex.

Just went for 80k service.
The main difference is they change the belt (like timing belt), and made me wait for 2 hours + for the service.
Sometimes my sister experience the slight left on highway too when driving the alza.

Strut bar / Strut brace will not help to correct suspension geometry instead it acts as a brace to stiffen both strut tower section thus help minimize flex.

Last time I checked price with one of the merchant named Michael Ong from Gallery Motorsports.

Front strut 2 point charging 165 MYR
Rear Anti-roll bar 19mm - 435 MYR
21mm - 475 MYR


He quoted : 19mm still ok with 2 back passengers , 21mm abit harsh if considering for passengers at the most back.

I have this too. On hiway, the road normally angle left for water to run off..this could be issue.

You can try have left side tyre pressure a bit more.

But just slight left only. That is how I understand

A good ceramic brake pads ( Akebono for Toyota NCP93 ) like i'm using now cost about 130MYR and another 2 packets of brake pad grease cost another few ringgit.

Anyhow i felt latest alza would be better to use semi-metallic brake pads with more biting grip compared to ceramic ones. Even the original provided brake pads doesn't bite as hard not last minute stopping was quite scary.

Ya..semi ceramic is better...bit finding a good one with good grip and affordable price seems hard.

Some claimed good grip but ended up the disk out easily.

So far i am okay with current 2nd disc and pads. As long as you know how well it grips, dont follow too near

Ya true there's no best in both world.

My Ceramic pads does gives some advantage in terms of heat handling, down hill genting with 3 passengers still able to get brake pedal feel though you know its over-heating and also after 45k km of hard braking usage still have more than 60%.

My next sets would be TRW semi-metallic pads and disc with just under 200 MYR .

Hope it doesn't wear off my disc rotors too soon. Hehe

Hi i off and on will input my info for you all references:

My FL Alza SE year 2014 (68k km), went through plantation quite often, pot holes, flood, mini van, etc...so worth for RM60k, 3yrs free labour services.

My replacement parts/modifications as below (all prices are based on my memory, it may different from now):

Brake pad brembo RM130 + labour RM10
4 pcs Dunlop Formula D05 15/55/195 RM170 each
Strut Bar UR RM120
9 din LCD + tweeter + undersear subwoofer RM2000
Bosch Wiper RM25 each
Headlamp bosch RM25 each

Conclusion: Worth buying, major service at 60k cost me less than RM300 wtf...cons abit noisy here and there, underpowered uphill abit, etc....rmb change tyres first that is very important...stock tyre noisy, no grip, puncture once, corner buang, immediate brake stressful....but after chnaged all the above good car to go...especially tyre the dunlop above is good clocked 8k so far, soft compound, silent, grippy, corner good, i can see this tyre can last longer than othersoft tyre normally is worth already.

Summary: Everything above can help you save time ask here and there already.

Thank you.

i reckon the service interval for ATF is 40k km. If you do for 20k km, you are doing a good deed for your gearbox as such practice prolong the life span of it, slightly.

Why dont you put carpet there and you cannot see the seat anymore.

If you dismantled 3rd row, the bonnet shape will be akward i guess since not flat anymore

Folded seat does not give much boot space imo. If you put boot cover, you can only put things as high as the 2nd seat.

In the service book it says every 40k km but i do mine in every 20k km.
ATF fluid is quite important to prolong AT lifespan.

I am not sure what other purpose you need, but I agreed with Cleaner where folding it down and get a 'carpet' to cover whole area (which is what I did too).

You can try take out the seats if needed, but it wont be flat. I have carried things above the height of the seat but not recommended as can't see anything with rear view mirror. I used it short distance within taman only.

Thanks. I asked about permanently dismantle 3rd row seat because I see by just folding it, the 'boot' space is still small (seems less than 500 ltr). Just curious whether can dismantle 3rd row seat to gain more storage space than 500 ltr...

*with boot cover, can only store as high as the grey area.

Asking in this forum in case someone did that before and can share.

Asking in this forum in case someone did that before and can share.

you gonna have a weirdo trunk space, especially with the contoured floor for cargo space

Ya true there's no best in both world.

My Ceramic pads does gives some advantage in terms of heat handling, down hill genting with 3 passengers still able to get brake pedal feel though you know its over-heating and also after 45k km of hard braking usage still have more than 60%.

My next sets would be TRW semi-metallic pads and disc with just under 200 MYR .

Hope it doesn't wear off my disc rotors too soon. Hehe

RM200 for TRW brake pad + rotor?

OMG that's a good deal....i wanna stock up....

I can only offer these as the price below:-
Brake Pad Front [DTEC] - RM130 (Ceramic)
Brake Pad Front - RM90
Brake Rotor Front - RM230

Before pass my alza to my friend, already clock 190k km, maintenance wise

1. Change all 4 tyre 3 times
2. Change front brake pad 3 times
3. Change full set absorber with mounting at 100k km
4. Change atf every 20k or 30k km
5. Normal service every 10k km
6. Numerous times change headlight and foglamp bulb before installing voltage stabilizer and grounding cable
7. Change floorboard carpet due to water seep in from buzzer wiring

Iinm my alza dont have any other big issue

To improve wind noise and sound insulation, me do

1. Install door sound proofing
2. Install extra rubber weatherstrip at all 4 door

Satisfy with my alza during my usage eventhough cannot compare with my opel zafira becoz different segment

The common issues are captured here and brought forward from the previous thread.

I have 1st gen version Alza, clocking 5 year now this month with 120k km.
No major issues so far and maintenance is very affordable (*outside)

1. Tyres = currently 4th set (with the 1st set ori tyres running <10k)
2. brake pads = front change 3 times, rear 1 time
3. absorbers = 1 time at 80k km
4. Change atf every 20k or 30k km
5. Normal service every 7-10k km, depending what oil using.
6. water pump = changed at 70k due to bearing sound and slight leaking.
7. Coolant = changed 1 time at 80k (DIY)
8. Battery = 3rd unit now, normally changed every 2 years.
9. Buzzer wiring - flooding the driver side floor, DIY checking.. will check next round as raining season now.
10. wheel alignment + balancing every 8-10k.
11. cabin filter - changed every year.
12. light bulbs - 3 pcs so far if remembered correctly (using Osram/Philips/Bosch)
13. Engine V belt - changed during the water pump changed.

Engine - stock with hotbits extractor.
Body - front strut bar, pivot voltage stabilizer, grounding
Body - sound proofing on doors, roof and side sills. wheel arch bitumen sprays.
Rim - changed rims as ori 2 rims bengkok.

Hey bro, does your hotbits extractor give you too much of FC difference compared to your ori with catalytic ?
I'm very tempted to change it but worried my already fuel sipping engine ( 7.8 l to 100 km ) gonna sip more fuel.

7.8l per 100km quite good dah...to save fuel, just ease off yr right foot and good maintenance.

I put in extractor as need better push. I did not track of this helps..but some said yes some not. FC depends on how u drive eventually

I would like to ask, usually what is the lifespan of a tire? measured in mileage?

what's the price for replacing tire currently?

I personally think that it depends on many facts too.

1. Tyre compound - hard or soft. some models have softer compound where it quieter but wear off faster. Grip is better tho. Harder compound last longer and much noisier. The noise level also depends on the 'flower' design. Ones with big big 'flower' is noisier.
2. how it is maintained - proper inflation, rotation as well as alignment.
3. how you drive... if u drift always.. heheheh

average you can measure it by years or mileage (whichever come first).

Mileage - 40k to 60k.
Period - 4 years - some car less drive, clocking 10k km total but the tires already 4-5 years.. best to change as it is old. Some tires burst when go on hiways are due to old age too.

Just my views.

Try change brake pedal hose to steel braided, it will not improve "makan" but it will improve brake pedal feel, easier to manipulate brake pressure.

Also try flushing brake fluid and adjust rear brake shoe to make it more "makan"

i have a bad experience with metal braided hose on my previous car... the joint actually snap off..btw im not using those china brand...im using P** RS that time....

Already flush...after flush still the same...i always adjust my rear brake everytime i service my car...roughly about 2 month( 8000km) once.

Steel Braided hose.. it actually improve the braking (feel) to be less spongy-ness. As our normal rubber hose would expand when brake pedal is pressed. My friend changed it to steel braided hose on his persona (some local well known brand), not sure it is P** RS or AR******.

It looks nice on hand and he changed it plus branded brake fluid. Ended hell, where the hose 'leaking' one after another. Even though they provide 1-1 change on the 'defective' hose, it kena again, just within 1-2 month time and he kena xcident where the leaking made no pressure on the pump.
Habis fluid tu, he brake and no brake at all, avoided banging into a bike, but ended up into another car.

After we check thru the hose, it is a total design flaw. They said can change 1-1, fxxx them la. Go back to original and he just change to a better pad and new disc (TRW, i think).

Brake hose is key item to jaga too, where during alignment or balancing, go look at the hose to see the condition of the hose (cracks etc).

Since most of us has 100k mileage or >4-5 years car, best to have a frequent check on the hose during service too. Drive safe.

I see ... after i fitted vios injectors if i run with ori air filter FC can be like 7.3L per 100km .
If i put on my K&N then jialat , smooth highway 120kph can get 7.6 - 7.8 , once jam 8.3 ...... hahaha

Yes you may use 10w/30 as it is still same 30 rating. But you have to factor in the type of oil you're using ( Mineral base or Semi-Mineral base or Fully Synthetic base ) to determine your service intervals.

Bro , Alza is well known to have less efficient braking grip due to the nature Auto Transmission.
If you want to get shorter braking distance, try equip with a good set of brake pads and brake disc then flush your brake system with a better brake fluid.
Make sure your rear brakes is adjusted about every 10k km. You can perform self rear brake adjustment by yourself by fully stepping your foot brake then apply full pressure on your brakes. Repeat few times and test and see your brake pedal feel is firmer.
A good set of tyres will help stopping distance as well.

Ya.. I do agree, the manual transmission Alza has better grip. Not sure it is due to the ABS. The non ABS better grip.

I know the feel of brake not makan, especically downhill. Press all still jalan.. hahahhaa

Changing the disc and pads does help. Brake fluid should as long as we change the the same spec kua.

The self adjustment, have not try it..thanks for the tips.

depending brand and spec. Also how your daily route.

for safety & budget I always trust Michelin XM2. About RM200 - 225/ pcs 185/60/R15
I change to XM2 during 20,000KM. 2nd change when clock 100,000Km this April 16. I don't feel much different change for old XM2 to new XM2, meaning the product quality quite balance. Not like some brand only good before 20%~30% use ..after that doh.gif
My friend's Alza XM2 still using after 100,000KM mileage, because he mainly drive highway.

Recently found another options. BF Goodrich tyre, 100 years US brand now under Michelin. Model : Advantage T/A Drive
Another friend's Alza just change it 195/55/15 RM600 1 set. Special offer by a shop in Bangi. Tested grip very good and worth the price.

Solid white would if not jaga frequently. Silver would be the easiest to maintain of all colors.

All paint just need some proper cleaning/washing, for maintain, just waxing (with polishing if needed) at least every 3-6 mths if can.
Nowadays, many ease to use water wax which just spray, apply and wipe off.

Now I am testing nano rapid coating which is imported. non-permanent type. Applied on my bike where it shines, now have to see whether it last 2 months.
Not very expensive, about RM50-60 a bottle.

Bro, one way for me to know Alza Transmission is the culprit to bad braking is if u put N ( not really recommend to repeatedly doing it la, i duno whats the real consequences ) u tend to brake grip harder than if your engage in D .

Parking brake automatically adjust by itself when brake shoes wear off bit by bit, so usually I would forcefully adjust it more or i just jack up my rear end DIY adjust my brake shoes .... hahaha

For brake fluid, yes Daihatsu and Toyota brake systems tend to recommend DOT 3. In many books it says ABS usually recommends the usage of DOT 4 ( eventhough SC says do not know what will happen if change to DOT 4 ) so i have replace mine to DOT 4 and it has firmer brake pedal feel.

im using brembo disc rotor and trw pad...and still the same....im using195.50.16 Continental CPC2 tyre...

I am not sure about CPC2 , but I'm using Michelin XM2 195/55R15 it brakes way better than ori silverstone M5 tyres.
TRW brake pads was quite a good set of brakes since my previous conti cars usuage, as for brembo disc , i don't really trust it personally as i known brembo used to produce quality performance brake components but not for small cars ( correct me if i'm wrong ).

In the market , there's plenty of cap ayam products wearing genuine packaging. Its good to find a trusted parts dealer to get real parts than getting counterfeits.
Just my 2 cents.

Bro, one way for me to know Alza Transmission is the culprit to bad braking is if u put N ( not really recommend to repeatedly doing it la, i duno whats the real consequences ) u tend to brake grip harder than if your engage in D .

Parking brake automatically adjust by itself when brake shoes wear off bit by bit, so usually I would forcefully adjust it more or i just jack up my rear end DIY adjust my brake shoes .... hahaha

For brake fluid, yes Daihatsu and Toyota brake systems tend to recommend DOT 3. In many books it says ABS usually recommends the usage of DOT 4 ( eventhough SC says do not know what will happen if change to DOT 4 ) so i have replace mine to DOT 4 and it has firmer brake pedal feel.
*
During any braking or hard braking, best not to put in N. I don't think all drivers will put in N.

in D more, when you hard braking or downhill braking, the D mode will move down a gear to help slow down the car using engine braking.

I have many times when come into a situation where a hard/emergency braking, I will downshift to 3 or even to 2 depending on how much engine braking I needed to assist to slow down car faster.
I can still feel the ABS kicked in..tak tak tak...

Some friends who sits in my car also said, they thought won't make it to the stop as they know Alza / some other makes with AT has weak braking. It works with ABS without slipping. Then they said, phew..lucky braking is good.

Good tyres plays important role too where grips helps.

Also, as i constantly check rear view mirror for cars / bikes around my car, during hard braking, i put signal to Right, braking and move car to the right with downshift..the car behind would know i shift right, so he would shift left if needed without banging in to my alza from behind. depends la..some drivers kopi lesen without basic driving knowledge.

Tips: see as far as possible if there is a car way in front has brake light on, better slow down liao.

Ya true, of course not put N in driving situation .... i just tried when car speed almost at a stop and in a very safe environment.

Same case to me, always ABS kicks in during brake .... afraid ABS will kong sooner than i thought. hahaha

I agree with the way you avoid cars , sometimes many factors ...... I just pray everytime when i drive , don't contact any waving kapcai rider during rush hour.

I've no issue with big bike rider as myself was used to dealing and meeting riders.

Its just sorry to say to certain group of people endangering themselves as well moving cars on the road. Sometimes its just frustrating .

kapcais mustn't be waving and hogging road.

Yes. For car with ABS, tyre grip has an important role in braking efficiency.

hurray, my SJCAM M10 just reached me. I think most of you all would know what is it...
for me, I can use it as camera, dashcam (using back the existing car power adapter), helmet cam, underwater cam, etc with the standard accessories.

Going to install it nanti to replace the rear view mirror dashcam that used for 2 years. Will try also on helmet.

Not really...i mounted it. It comes with standard acc...i dismounted it in just 5sec. Mounting about same and plug in

Only when i need for my helmet, i will put onto the waterproof casing supplied, then slot in to the mounting and on it press record.

Not like daily mount dismount.

Now testing the settings and familiarize.

This is deluxe package..if want to use for car, option to get the suction mount and car charger..

Just sharing some experience here.
My car was infested with flying termites the other week. A whole bunch of them clogged up the intake vent below the wiper, and rain made it worse. In the end, they clumped up and couldn't drain through the flap. Then they started growing white mold, which caused a horrible stink through my a/c.
I have cleared the intake vents, and the vents below the dashboard since they got in there too. No smell from the parts anymore, but my blower vents still smell. Not sure if they somehow managed to get into the evaporator coil. But will ventilate the system for a week or so and see if it goes away.

Anyone experienced such issues before? The smell isn't at the cabin filter anymore, only at the center blower vent mostly.

Will advise alza drivers to put a piece of cloth over the external intake vent to prevent insects and debris going in especially for areas with those flying ants and termites. Too much and it clogs up the system since the drain has a flap of sorts which stops them flowing out.

If you are doing DIY..

I would suggest that you can take out the blower to clean. Change the filter. Use Car AC cleaner and refresher where it can clean the coil and vents. Foam type. look at the product instruction.

It will drip out from the 'hose'...then keep the car under the sun and open the window to have it dry. Give it a try..do it at own risk tho.

ooh.. ok ok. depending how/what u use it.. I am using the cigg adapter USB (type 1 pic). I would suggest getting a good one. Last time the cheapo rm5-10, the whole thing is heating up. Now using Aukey.

the 2nd pix, I am not sure what charging port using.. you know nowadays, smartphones as QC1.0, 2.0 3.0....etc etc.. get the right one to charge is best.

Managed to do as suggested, however noticed that the grime on the blower fins smell very strongly of that smell. So suspecting the smell has already got inside my cooling coil, since the air from blower still smells when turned on with AC off especially first start in the morning. Thinking might as well do a service, since the air flow seems to have decreased a bit too.
Got quoted from rm250 to rm400 for taking out the parts, cleaning and gas replacement. A bit variance in cost, so thinking what's the usual cost for this kind of service?

It seems reduced, going to hang on a few more days to see if it further decreases.
The only worry is if a blockage or such might damage the compressor or other parts.

Any Alza users care to share your costs for air cond service, and what jobs were done? Did they replace the seals etc and flush the system?

If you hear knocking sound, or grinding sound when you go over uneven road then time to change.
Proride read some not nice reviews, for myself i recently replaced with Kayaba. You need to replace the mounting and suspension itself, think spring no need as it's a very hardy part. Maybe the stabilizer link as well.

me change absorber and absorber mounting at 100k km, change at p2sc, using original part, cost around rm600-rm700 iinm, 2014 price.

Before that try using proride, better handling but after 3 month k.o already. Thats why me change back to ori abs, reliability more important for me than slightly improve handling

Oh, always thought it was apm or something. You replaced at p2 though, why? Always thought they overprice their parts. I know their absorber selling for rm260 now when you can get it straight from Kayaba at rm140.

change it at p2 becoz proride absorber installer damage my rubber spring holder, have to order at p2 becoz normal spare part shop didnt have stock.

And at that time p2 got service promo, all in with absorber, absorber mounting, rubber for spring holder and labour charge not more than rm700 iinm. Dunno cheap or not becoz proride abs price also more or less the same.

Proride abs got 6 month warranty but didnt bother to claim becoz use 3 month k.o already, dont want the hassle to claim and k.o again

Change ori abs at 100k km, still good until i swap my alza with my friend at 190k km

kayaba or kyb is good enough...not best for performance but comfort and reliable enough.

I hardly had any abs last like 100k km. Mostly 60k km, as can feel it is bouncy and cannot absorb perfectly.

Now my car 120k and i may change it soon..see how budget masuk. This round may change lower arm as saw crack lines on the rubber mounting.

If want better cornering, dont go proride and i rather change the anti roll bar at the rear.

Proride Malaysian company I think. So not really confident of their engineering abilities. Usual stuff, they always think these things simple like autogate, r&d pun tarak

if follow manual, not advise speed more than 120 iinm. You will hear tornado at your alza roof ha ha.

Me using thule ranger 90 at my other car, sometimes speed more than 140, other than excessive wind noise, all is ok but please make sure all clamp are tight

Holiday Season as well as Raining Season.

All do drive safe, do check:
1. proper wipers, change if needed
2. well condition tyres with proper alignments
3. windscreen washer fluid is not empty. Can add washer fluid if needed
4. drive at comfortable speed, especially in wet road.
5. do not quick turn steering nor hard braking when get into pool of clotted water spot
6. of course, engine with proper fluid for long journey.
7. well inflated / right pressure tyres
8. stay distance from the car in front
9. on the light not double signal
10. if found lorry or bus behind you, let them pass and be in safe distance

this is what I can give...anyone has any tips to add on.. We are safe drivers.

Recommend or not best suggestion for you, use genuine fluid according to your vehicle spec is the best choice of all.
No worries after that.
Nothing is same if it is produced by different manufacturer ( ATF ).

I only did remapping. Now looking / exploring the vios injectors (1NZ green one I suppose). I will do it one at a time.. hope can get it change in next service to see what good / bad about it. Heard about RM150 range.

now clocking 120k km, and it is due for spark plug and engine oil change. Doing it in next few weeks.

Alza gearbox is on Dexron III specification. Any reputable ATF offers Dexron III compatibility is good enough.
For Castrol Transmax Multivehicle it is perfectly fine. Your Alza needs less than 3L for refill only. So you can expect quite a bit of balance from 4L packaging.

http://msdspds.castrol.com/bpglis/FusionPD...BPXE-A2Q3QM.pdf

As for the original Perodua ATF D-III. It is just the lowest grade mineral ATF with Dexron III spec. With a bit of technical knowledge you can get many better quality ATF out there with full compatibility, at cheaper pricing as well.

TRW is very dusty and will wear off brake disc quite soon but with exceptional good braking grip ( on my YRV front brakes fitted to my Kelisa with TRW pads, disc and brake fluid )

I see , where did you do re-mapping ? Last time there's a service advisor telling me they have guys doing this at SC workshop quietly .

Anyway I replaced to green vios injectors, smooth power delivery. Next fitted with K&N drop in air filter , gear shifting was much more smoother especially drop gear. But this leads to bad fuel consumption @ 7.8litre / 100 km

Yesterday just replaced my map sensor to 1NZ ones, less sudden kick from drop gear ( maybe richer fuel from 12 holes injectors ) but much smoother power deliver and i managed to achieve 7.4litre / 100km mileage on a smooth highway drive with not much jams.

I may suggest you go for Perodua Iridium plugs, i found its cheaper compared to spare part shops.

Actually low dust formulation is only good for aesthetic reason + lesser cleaning. However, the braking performance is usually poorer (be it some manufacturers claim otherwise). You will notice continental cars usually have a lot of brake dust, and the braking performance is far superior as well.

It is more important to stay safe than having shiny wheels. Given a choice i will opt for one with dust.

is it everytime everywhere, the Wooong sound at that specific speed? I am not sure what is the issue as there are many things can contribute to that woong sound..

if I understand the woong sound correctly that you mentioned, it could be the wheel bearing, but funny is after 85kph, no more. get your mechanic to have it check.

If speed not up to 50kph no that sound. sound not that noisy, only slightly.. my first car had few time wheel bearing issue. I think not wheel bearing. Because wheel bearing issue sound become bigger as fast we drive. Normally perodua service center not checking car on saturday.. I only free weekends.. My car still under warranty, not dare to bring outside workshop.

It is hard to say here what issue it is as we don't know where the sound coming from.

What you can try test is/are:
1. Gear on P, try ramp the rev fast and slow... rpm 2k..2.5k then 3k...you can do it from the engine compartment and try hear whether any sound coming from engine.
2. the Woong sound is coming from front?
3. how old / what KM mileage now.. have you change engine old and ATF??

usually tyre wont give you woooong sounds.... most likely is wheel bearing as the vibration starts around 50kph, as for 85kph onwards, the wind noise is louder than the wheel bearing noise hence it seems to be gone, do you have any idea which wheel it come from? Usually it happens on a single wheel rather than both wheel together, is possible but unlikely. Let's try to test it on a road, go for 50kph, then find a corner that allows you to turn at 50kph, turn left and turn right, if you turn left and the sound is gone, is left rear, vice versa.
My house saga BLM have a tri annual wheel bearing problem so i know how suck it is. And i just got the right rear wheel bearing replaced two days ago. sad.gif

i paired my phone to media player.. while i playing my radio, i try to pick up a call through the media player there.. my radio just stop a while for the call, after that turn back to radio again.. the problem is my call still not yet hang up, but i cannot listen n talk through the media player there..

but if i did not on any music or radio there, my call will be no problem by using through bluetooth to the media player.. sound n mic working well..

can anyone explain to me what happen to my media player? or the media player is work like that?

It is hard to say here what issue it is as we don't know where the sound coming from.

What you can try test is/are:
1. Gear on P, try ramp the rev fast and slow... rpm 2k..2.5k then 3k...you can do it from the engine compartment and try hear whether any sound coming from engine. 
2. the Woong sound is coming from front? 
3. how old / what KM mileage now.. have you change engine old and ATF??
*
OK will first the first one see have sound or not
Hear the woong sound came from bottom front tires there
about 10 months i think, only 8k mileage now, Just did 3 times service on august ATF will change next service

usually tyre wont give you woooong sounds.... most likely is wheel bearing as the vibration starts around 50kph, as for 85kph onwards, the wind noise is louder than the wheel bearing noise hence it seems to be gone, do you have any idea which wheel it come from? Usually it happens on a single wheel rather than both wheel together, is possible but unlikely. Let's try to test it on a road, go for 50kph, then find a corner that allows you to turn at 50kph, turn left and turn right, if you turn left and the sound is gone, is left rear, vice versa.
My house saga BLM have a tri annual wheel bearing problem so i know how suck it is. And i just got the right rear wheel bearing replaced two days ago. sad.gif

Sound came from bottom front tires i think.. will try your advice also thanks.

You mean when someone called you, the radio speaker will sound instead of your phone?

I need to retry but i understand that once connected, it would channel to the radio speaker.

One of the reason I bought SE is because the preference of the seats, compared to standard and advance variants.

should not be less than 1 year.. how long is the original bulb last, you know?

there are 2 reasons i can think of.

1. fake
2. fingers dirty when changing the bulbs.
...

3. add good grounding cable n VS may help.

Ori not sure..still with me..I change the bulb after a month using the car.

Fake not sure. Box serial number match on website but then again bulb maybe fake.

Dirty finger I can confirm didn't touch the bulb at all. VS is in my car from day 1.

Now thinking of it, small light I'm using from my previous car Philips blue bulb W5W already more than 5 years old.

Maybe I should purchase from another seller to try.

mmm... i wld say at least >2 years life span.

as you mentioned, you did not touch the bulb (so called the glass), but best to wash your fingers and dry it before you hold the bulb base.. eeeh... what I am trying to say is that we still need to hold the bulb somewhere, mostly the base, sometime at the 'connector'...

that is why make sure your fingers are clean and dry... i use tissue paper to hold the bulb and slot it in even my fingers cleaned.

try it out, I learned this from the performance part shop (friend).

Anyone using NGK Gpower spark plug DCPR7EGP for alza? My concern with this spark plug is it has 1mm gap while the standard spark plug is 0.9mm.

I'm wondering if the non standard spark plug will stress the ignition coil dues to non standard gap.

Yes indeed. NGK Gpower has copper core with platinum tip. Low price and durable. It could take years for ignition coil to shown failure after excessive stress, just not sure if that extra 0.1 mm does any damage though.

from what I know Silverstone and sime tyres are not good overall.

Toyo is new to markets, not sure if it is better, but Toyo acquired Silverstone bhd and use the same factory to produce. So good or not, donno...

with proper maintenance i.e change engine oil follow schedule, timing chain will easily last more than 200k km

with proper maintenance i.e change engine oil follow schedule, timing chain will easily last more than 200k km

Iinm last time i check, timing chain price for alza around rm900++ not including labour and related other stuff that need to change as well
*
900..ok.

With proper engine oil change and maintenance, the chain will last much longer.

Signs of possible weared timing chain are:
1. Engine rattles when idle..even after service, plug change and coil checked.
2. Engine misfires.

Yup, exactly what happen.
Another indicator the rpm a bit low compare to before. With aircond around 900rpm and no aircond around 650rpm. And suddenly it will as low as possible until almost die during idling.

Try one thing. Open up the air filter, try clean the throttle body. See if it helps.

Only P2 SC can check error code? Any outside workshop can do it? By the way so far no error signal light on appear at the meter cluster.

Only SC has it the scan for error code.

Have you get the car to your normal mechanic shop to check first?

Before suspecting the timing chain, low rpm can be also caused by:
1. spark plug(s)
2. spark plug coil
3. map sensor
4. injector?

Hardly a timing chain be spoiled with over-rev as the engine has cut-off.

Will consider to check the map sensor and injector. All spark plug new and coil verified in good condition.

Yup, I have checked with my two mechanic that I use to go. Things that trigger the timing chain was loud rattling sound during idling and disappear after start to move or put some revv. Both confirm through hearing (using stethoscope and metal rode) the source of the rattling was from the timing chain. Rootcause still unknown. Might only the tensioner got issue or the plastic guide. But both do not have confident to do the job. Since need to open the cover might as well to change the whole set. I got feeling the chain already elongate due to the issue and the gear teeth might have wear off heavily.

i wonder what they can do with facelift for alza. as passo sette has been discon in Japan, there's no donor model to refer to. The neaerest could be daihatsu mpv concept (i forgot what name it is), or Cayla (cheapo seven seater based on Ayla aka Axia). Or Perodua could be design in house since they successfully design bezza.

the remaining piece of puzzle is the engine deployment, next gen of alza (or it's replacement) should be powered by 1500cc engine, and i dont think perodua will keep on 3SZ-VE, hence the next thing to come will be 2NR-VE, which is the same family engine as sienta & vios, will UMW allows such deployment? it's quite a piece of puzzle, imagine buying myvi 1.5 and you getting the same family engine like vios. rclxm9.gif

Ok feedback. Issue still there haha. They even change rear axle arm for me. My SA also say his got this issue. Not sure sinkalan me or not. But my muscle memory used to it already.

By the way, my aircon, if i left my car idle few days. I start the car , the aircon clutch kick in has a noise like "krak". SA also told me it's normal, it's corrosion and rust from clutch. Is this common?

Ya.. many said battery.. this could be the first sign. 1 year 10months is good.
Some mechanic has tools to check...better check/change rather than get you stuck somewhere and all bloodsucker will sell you their batt for premium price. vmad.gif

It is about rm160 (estimated) for a century batt marathoner. any price above rm200 is cekik leher liao.

Ya.. I previously batt was Century Marathoner (RM120 with trade in)..used for about 1.5yr..then got signs of slower crank start... Now using Yokobatt as given by the sparepart shop last year in in April/May I think..
Price increase overall early last year, with trade in abt RM150 if I recalled.

..this year donno now la... I would know when I visit the shop again maybe in April nanti to get lower arm, absorbers, mounting, etc.

Driving around for a bit after suspension change, suspension and stabilizer replaced. Only springs left from stock. I never noticed this before, but there seems to be some noise coming from the tyre well when going through the bumps. Not exactly knocking, maybe a dull thud.
Also when wheel is at full turn, it will "skip" on parking bay concrete. Almost like losing traction.

So many issues one doesn't notice if one doesn't look for it.

Alza SE 2014. bought on Oct 2016 from Bank Auction. At that time mileage 10k but NEVER service before (service booklet is clean as new). Call service center to confirm and Yes...never serviced. I serviced it right after i got the car at SC balakong by that time. Still valid for warranty smile.gif
Changed engine oil, filter, gear oil, Spark plug.

Now upon reaching 20k...car seems like under power....hardly accelerate/slow respond even though i step on it..what possibly the problem?

Booked a service this Sat at SC balakong..any possible problem so that i can inform SC to check for me?

firstly from 10k to now about 20k.. .that is 10k mileage done.

As standard, you would need to change engine oil (fully syn i assume) at least every 10k / 6months whichever comes first.
Even though using fully, the EO (engine oil) performance drops. Depends on what brand of oil, some at 6k can feel performance drops, some worse, 3k can feel.

So, change the EO and oil filter at the minimum would do.

on the other hand, get a aircond pollen/cabin filter. (about rm18-20). add that, which helps to prolong the life of aircond.

brake fluid not advisable to top up. You need to flush out the old fluid and replace with new one.

Sorry to disturb i need help.
My alza advance sent to change front glass then sent to tint.
When car came back, the gps sd card missing, both party deny they took it.
I tried to reinstall from cd to new sd card but fail to activate through server. I called lokatoo hq, they said sdcard got some protection (some extra file maybe), need to get original card from them.
I wish anyone card borrow and let me copy and study what extra files within, i am IT graduated. Or at least upload their sd card contents for me.
Else last step have to go back to service center.

It will fit i suppose. Just like putting myvi rim into alza.

Not sure why you want a 14 inch tho. the speed wont suffer if the overall diameter with tyre same. You need a 'thicker' tyre.. not sure have or not..

I have few question to ask hope you guys can let me know.
I will going for a 20,000 car service thsi weekend at the Perodua SC in PJ.
Below is the online list that i should change as given in their website.

It is the 20,000km consider a major service. I do not want Perodua to change the parts that is not ready to change.

1) What parts must change?
2) Spark Plug can change at 30,000km instead of 20,000km?
3) Thought to doing Alighment and balance at other shops but not in Perdodua SC.

Alza ( AT - 2014 ) : 20,000km Automatic Transmission

Brake Fluid 0.5L 2 20.00
Element S/A Oil Filter 1 12.20
Element Sub-Assy, Air Cleaner Filter 1 35.80
Gasket 1 3.80
PGO Semi Syn 5W-30 SM (4L) 1 91.00
Spark Plug (D55D) 4 49.20
*Tyre Alignment, Balancing & Rotation 49.00


Labour Charges - 80.00
GST ( 6% ) - 20.46
Total - 361.46

I find is quite expensive for the 4th service.

OR go to other car service center to do the service.

Hope you all can give me some advise.

You can just check with the SC you will be going to. Price is steep from SC. Labour charges is like fixed.
If 20k, I will do:
1. Engine Oil with oil filter.
2. Air filter
3. cabin filter
4. spark plug
5. ATF oil with filter.

if you want some to be done outside.. can, as long as no void warranty.

I changed my spark plug to iridium type during my 20k service. (Which is scheduled to last 100k km)

My advice is follow the tasks given, and also opt out any additional by the sc.

Check your 10k service. For mine air filter/ cabin filter is alternate.

1)i would replace ATF @20k km if the car operate under severe condition most of the time, for example high speed, idle a lot or short distance.
2)replace the standard spark plug at every 20k km. You don't want to stress the ignition coil which are much more expensive. Ask them to return the old spark plug and you should see the electrode started to wear.
3)tyre service cost at Tyre shop cost around Rm35 to rm50. The cost to service in perodua SC seems reasonable where if you service outside chances are you might suffer from the infamous camber con job. Besides that, you get to let them inspect your suspension for leaking. Anyway, Tyre service is not necessary unless you can't avoid tyre rotation.

For me, the service cost is reasonable.

I replaced to 195/55/R15 since 6mths old car.
For me, the diff are:
1. stiffer sidewall hence little better handling.
2. width is increase little bit, like 5%..layman thinking, 5% more grip..hehhhee
3. overall diameter is lesser like 1%..speedo and actual speed off just little bit, but can't notice.

After like 4 sets tyres including Ori. I had:
1. Sime (Ori) - pakai like 6 mth only..tyres was out wear very uneven and wavy. Noisy until nothing to say.
2. Pirelxx - good overall.
3. Kumxx - good earlier, noisy after like 20k. ok la for budget.
4. Michy - quiet...now using like 10k already..still good (for now).
