My sharing...

1.  Oil filter leak - this should have been fixed.  My observation, this is due to the failed o-ring on the filter.  SC said it has been fixed from blue to black to white, whatever la.. I just take my own Bosch filter to SC and let them changed on my SC service, since 4th visit, I did not go back SC as they just do basic maintenance, when trouble shooting, they are not up to par.

2. Fuel cover stuck - faced that, I just walk in and told them to fix it.. at first said have to make reservation, but I told them, left only 1 bar, i am going to travel KL tomorrow, I will drive, but the towing, inconvenieces fees etc I can claim them?? they assign one mechanic on the spot to fix it.. since then no issue.

3. steering rack issue - i did not face this.

4. drive shaft - I don't this this is driveshaft issue as some members (in other group) has changed this in SC, same.  I suspected that at certain RPM range, then ending runs like '3-cylinders" only which causes the 'shakes'.. 1 guy shared that he get mechanics to change the engine mounting, it is kind of solve it.. which means my logic may be right.  I dont have the scan tool (as of now), if can plug in and diagnose the pattern, might able to find the fault.  I also tried to find if Veloz has this?? also Myvi which using same engine and dcvt.. donno got same problem or not.

5. HU issue - i think mostly AV version has this issue.. this is not a problem if you intend to upgrade to other players, EG android player.  My H version okay since.. touch wood.. will use until kaput only change.  So far upgrade speakers and added sub, okay ah.
*
1. if u didnt go back to SC, it will woid any warranty. unless u only do at SC for the basic maintenance, change OIL etc, and other issue do at workshop outside.

4. what i read from the FB comments, the issue with driveshaft/steering rack is low quality and Perodua now doing some R&D to change other version, mybe improved version. they also mentioned this issue is came from the gearbox linkage that will tear the driveshaft again even after replacement, there is some other guys said they already change many times and still happened.
its might be true also that engine mounting is the caused of it. each car have diff issue. and perodua never issue official statement, so need to take this as grain of salt.

5. yes, only AV have this issue. on old firmware. always hang. after flash to newer firmware, no more issue, but i see from FB, there is still some issue happened on some user.
yes, im intent to upgrade to android player because im already familiar with this, but might be more few years or when got issue with existing HU. i dont like the android auto and prefer independent android player, that i can put SIM card and use it without touching my phone.

Recently experienced the first problem with my 7months old Alza, I detected the smell while trying to overtake in Sport mode. Then later I try again to speed up on highway in Sport mode too. Same smell detected.
Is there a major problem with the car that causing smell issue like that?

ahhh sorry I just realised I wrongly mentioned bangwall.gif oops.gif . What I used to overtake was Power button instead of gear's Sport mode.
Above you mentioned gearbox or aircon compressor overheating for Sport mode, what if for Power mode? Any idea to this?

Going for car service soon, hopefully SC can give answer also.

Is Alza a good car? You guys experience any problems with it, or when it comes to servicing/maintaining the car?

My 2012 Hyundai is showing its age and I now have a family with 2 kids, thinking of getting an Alza since it's very affordable.

Hi... personal experience sharing to you.

I drove the previous gen Alza for 13 years, nothing much to complain as does not have any major problem. I serviced at SC for first 20K km, then just moved out to service outside or self DIY what I can. One thing I like about this Alza is the space, it is not the biggest but can handle IKEA stuffs mostly without any issues compared to others more expensive cars. Not powerful but enough for small family mpv. Slowly upgrade some simple parts for better performance.

After the 13 years, saw this new gen Alza.. decided to change it to H version. So far okay, still not the best. I serviced at SC for upto 15k, then moved out again. Not to say that the SC not good nor very good (depends on each personal views). I just does not like to pay premium and long time just to do normal periodical service. It is a risk that no more warranty coverage.. but still go out from SC.

Some issues as you can see from previous posts.. so wait and see. This Alza not so lazak compared to previous Gen due to the softer engine and dcvt. Go up genting, overtaking etc still okay, just need to know how to drive it and change the driving style. As long as you know the limit, can la.
This new Alza has more space for loading items as it is much longer compared to previous gen. It is quieter compared to previous Gen.
I took the H version as the extra 7.5k, not really for me although the Blind spot feature is a good thing to have. Other features I don't need it eg, hill climb assist (no need as no problem with handling hill climb), audio/360 view (can always upgrade), tint (can do outside), dashcam (can add), EPB (used to conventional as I can control)....


Overall I won't say this is the best car, but it is a good car. Don't expect to have everything for 70k price now. Go have it a test drive, if you first time on cvt.

It you want cheap and space, I think Alza is the one to go. The other car brands that offer similar space and sitting capacity are mostly in the 100k++ region. Perodua also have the Aruz which also sits 7 but it is a bit too bumpy for me

Updates, went for 10k service at SC but before that went on highway to tekan. Somehow no more burnt smell.
Told service advisor about the situation and he arranged extra inspection for undercarriage or might be plastic stuck at exhaust system leading smell issue. He mentioned that don't really receive complaint on burnt smell issue for Alza but instead it's quite common for Ativa due to turbo.

Inspection ends up nothing found. Anyway, smell gone too while on both Power and Sport mode.

the ACC with stop and go is ok. but the problem is with LKC. its will be like ping pong and u need to steer urself to the center of the lane.
the current solution to this, is to buy kommu 1s, it will enhanced the LKC better. but the device is quire expensive, more than rm3k.

Hi guys. New owner joining here. Upgraded from Saga FLX to Alza AV

QUOTE(tancyew @ Feb 21 2024, 07:55 PM)
is it normal for the car to jerk when u release pedal fully during low speed like 10-20km/h? is like the car want to slow down very quickly
*
Initially I thought I was the only one who felt this but it seems that its common. Coming from Saga FLX, I can say that Saga's CVT is much smoother. I understand it's not apples to apples comparison but yeah the difference is pretty obvious. I'll have to get use to it

QUOTE(cdspins @ Feb 26 2024, 05:14 PM)
hmm... definitely notice it.
I think it is due to CVT braking, sometimes when release the gas pedal, it is as if some brake is apply.
But anyway slowly will get better at controlling the gas pedal
*
It feels like the CVT rubber band effect

QUOTE(Kiefer @ Feb 27 2024, 09:40 AM)
from my experience, it does not happen every time.. I noticed that when the AC compressor kicks in at this scenario, the car will jerk and slows down quickly.

I tested this with AC off, and it does not happens.  Seems P2 did not do proper fine tuning.. from myvi forum, they also experience this with same engine and same dcvt.
some said if put in power mode, this not happen.. hence i suspect fine tuning sucks for P2.

Not sure if veloz has this.. supposed to as same config.
*
Interesting. I haven't noticed this. Thanks for sharing. I'll try switching the AC off

QUOTE(ssmui @ Feb 27 2024, 11:59 AM)
I have a Myvi H 2022 and an Alza 2024 AV at home.  The low speed jerk on the Myvi is very apparent, and very uncomfortable, whereas the Alza is way smoother and is a joy to drive in the city.  For the "similar" D-CVT gearbox, it is almost like day and night, 2 different characters in each car.

Not sure what's is the tunnig and setting differences. The Myvi gear shift panel says P-R-N-D-S-B  whereas the Alza panel says P-R-N-D then +/-  to the right of D (just like Ativa).  All times I drive in D for both cars.
*
I didn't know the Myvi has the same jerk. I thought the Myvi was smooth

QUOTE(ktek @ Mar 6 2024, 08:23 PM)
slowly get better = throttle adaption. easy to reset/ clear memory

I really hope so. I guess it's still new
