Waiting period expectations is 6-8months, but I see recently a few of them got quite fast, entah what cable they pulled .
They say X variant faster 6months waiting with open colour

Hey guys, does changing spark plug on 1st Gen alza improve the fuel consumption.

How to determine when the sparkplug is failing or already bad?

took out each 1 to inspect color, middle needle gap

Oh. Is it easy to take out?

How to ensure it is tighten? Can I buy from online then come to mechanic ask them to fix?

top coil held by screws. plug need extender to twist out.
usually can. make sure u got factory gap spec & size

What's the mileage of yours? Normally require replacement around 40k km. If you replaced with NGK Iridium IX plugs, it should last around 80k km.

What's your current FC?

There are many symptoms of bad/failing spark plugs - https://wilcomotosave.co.uk/tell-tale-signs...-plugs-failing/

129k km now. Not sure my father has changed before or not.

One of the symptoms is high fuel consumption.
Need to pump like every 1 week.

Your alza full tank can last how many km until finish? Mine average 420-450km.

Last time my wife's Alza below 400km per full tank leh. Depends a lot on the foot as well, but based on my experience 420-450 is considered good di.

Saw new one above 500 😂

Sometimes max until 450

1st Gen Alza.

The new Alza has a 35l petrol tank right cos everytime I pump full tank my meter shows can run up to ~440km at 12.5km/l.

My fuel indicator empty when i pumped this



But the official stats is 42 liters.

That’s pretty good FC u got there. But don’t think there is any issue with your FC. Mine around 400km full city drive.

Anyway can’t compare the FC with the new alza. Different engine, different gb and whole different design.

If u are worried, just do a major service and follow up from there on.

Is 12.5km/l for the new Alza considered as good? Travelling mostly in Skudai Johor. If travel on NSE can get 18km/l.

There are many items that can contribute to bad fuel consumption.

Simple check:
1. Spark plug..take out and check if oily, black and tip runs out. Since you take out plugs.. see thru the hole if very dirty in there.. carbon deposit can be a lot. Use good fuel cleaner or carbon deposit cleaner..
2. Air filter change if dirty... Quick blow clean if not so dirty
3. Engine oil.. use 5w30 some good and affordable ones. Some EO no good even it is 5w30
4. Check throttle body.. clean it if can
5. Your atf may also check..this may not be one of reasons, but quick check will help.
5.

My wife's new Alza can pump RM83 when really really empty.

Bro, yr wife Alza travel how much further after indicator like this?



Theoretically, should have 7liter left since P2 indicated tank is 42liters.

Car was in perodua service center being repaired for 2+ months, was already showing light just before the accident. She pumped it just after getting the fixed car back (probably in testing/QC they have to run engine). She would never let the car petrol get so low one normally.

In case everyone thinks Alza is fuel guzzler, I did a 70-30% highway city drive ard 110-120kmh with just a few > 150 overtaking burst past few days.




This returns the standard 15km/l figure most of us experience. Anyone tried to hit 20km/l?

As usual depends on foot. I can't get 15 even with road trip to JB because we were about 130kmh most of the time. Time more important than mileage.

I yet to hit 20km/l. My latest travel to Alor Setar, mostly 110kph and some reaching 130-140 for overtaking or sports mode, i managed to get 18.3km/L.

If you put eco mode, you may get more.
