I asked them to check during 20k service but they either didn't find the problem or didn't bother to check at all...

Rotor disc getting rusty after awhile is normal...

It's not the rust problem... It's the 'nyek, nyek' after a cold start problem...

Looks like your brake pads are totally worn out and is in contact with the brake disc...

nooo.. the sound is there even no breaking applied

Correct... Basically the pads are worn out and the sound is from the contact between the pad base and disc... Do check the brake pads to confirm...

Thanks. Do you know where i can get that?
Thanks for the link. Those are new keys which will i need to bring to the locksmith to thread the blank key. I had done that, but the new key seem to be quite tight and difficult to turn/use. Locksmith mentioned that the key are slightly different from the original.

I am thinking if possible, just get the casing, and transfer my old key to the new casing.

Thanks

I've changed mine to a flip key case without any problem. Newly copied key will be slightly tight but after more usage, it will be much smoother.

Just don't forget to transfer the small immobilizer chip.

Hi all, need some advise with my inspira. For past few days it's difficult to start but today totally cannot start but have clicking sound which i believe is spark plug ignition.

Any idea what could be the issue & possibly how to fix it?

Many thanks.

Most probably battery died... Call your insurance to jump start the car then go drive to your favorite workshop and verify the issue...

Or worse case would be alternator died...

There is a plastic tool that can do the trick but it's possible that removing the plastic out will be destructive to it...

FYI, I'm trying to remove them too... bangwall.gif

trolling aside, just hope that your clutch pump fail as soon as possible (within warranty period) so that you can get it replaced for free.

I read from those who experience the clutch pump failure that it only happened once, after replaced it will be fine.

Mine failed after 10k mileage, still within warranty, left it few days at SC then collect it back without any fuss.

Ditto... Mine failed at 20k+ km... Got the whole set replaced FOC... They included the clutch as well but could be suspect of inside job to get new clutch for themselves... Hopefully it'll either die again before the 3 year warranty ends or never die at all... bangwall.gif

Actually Vios and Almera manual were my choices when I was looking for a used car.

Almera almost immediately took it off the list. Gear shifting was like an old van and the interior is terrible.

Vios was good. OK gear shifting, handling OK at turns, pickup is good, interior is good. Was about to get it, then I saw an Inspira about the same price.

Tested Inspira. Much nicer gear shift although a bit hard to go into 3rd, pickup I feel vios was slightly better, interior looked ok and felt ok (after purchase only I notice got a lot of gaps), comfortable and stable.

In the end took Inspira because somehow it feels a bit more premium when you're in it, and more features, i think it has a stronger structure and more sturdy.

But after reading through the threads i wonder if I made the right choice. The clutch worries me. I was expecting bulletproof reliability like my old 92 saga.

I got my C-segment Inspilala cheaper than the lowest spec B-segment God car... What else to complain? whistling.gif
