Actually Waja is quite cheap to maintain if you know where to service. Dad just changed 4 mountings cos around RM430+ with workmanship. But seriously, so fast it was gone, 2 years+ and 3 out of 4 are gone case, feels like you're driving a moving OSIM biggrin.gif

List of problems 1.6(A) so far fixed:
- 2 PW problem (motor replaced, PW switchboard replaced), passanger side very loud when opening.
- 2 suspension at the back (1 set)
- Mountings (1 set - 4 biji)
- 2 Lower arm at the back
- Side mirror paint chipped off (known issue) - did not repaint
- Door handles 3 out of 4 broken (replaced)

Age of car: 3 years old+

Other than that, good handling but noisy interior due to engine sound all transfer into cabin. Was worse off when the mounting died. Overall rating, a cheap good car from point A to B and need a little more attention due to minor problems. Need to see mechanic once a month to fix these little rascals. Now probably less like maybe 2 months once.

Where to change the mounting? I need to replace mine.
