i agree with u the steering is kinda lose. maybe i should ask my sc to tighten for meh. the eeee sound still persist n my engine side.
aiks. how much the 2nd service cost?
gonna do 1st service soon. how much it will cost?

so expensive? which part ? ......the engine dis or the labour charge?

actually rite...u can tell them no need the screen wash n engine treatment
just to the basic oil change n filter n all
lastime 1st time i was kinda blur
they did servicing rite
n siap charged me for battery water!
pada hal...our new batteries are maintenance free type...
...so WTH is the water for?!
n i bodoh bodoh went n paid for it
2nd time around i told them....its ok...just change the oil n d filter...

we can buy all those treatments outside much cheaper
no need give those sc more chance to potong us
even the engine oil oso they charge so high
sparepart shops selling at least 8-10 bucks less

another thing they tried to pull is they didnt 1 2 tune my car at d 5000 service
i asked them y...they said they normally tune at 10k onli
but if check the service schedule in the book,...it says to tune every 5k
so i pointed that out to them n asked them to tune it

and one more thing all u new iswara users mite wana check...
as soon as you get your car,...check the tappets

mine were dead tight!
a 5mil feeler oso couldnt get through it!
(supose to be 10mil for the intake and 15mil for the exhaust)
so for the 1st few hundred km my valves were not closing fully
can cause erosion on the valve seats!
n wen i asked them wen i 1st went in after a few hundred km n felt my car was not right...they said they will only check tappets if there is sound
and that only happens if they are lose....so what about if they are tight?!
by that time i'd already readjusted the tappets myself
so didnt push it...

really cant tahan proton service centers man

for those who wan buy ori parts in kl. u can try at proton parts at glenmarie.
but sometime outside they made a better parts from proton

mine not till 1 month. just recieved comfirmation from bank. haiz. nid to start pay loan adi.

wat is tappets how it looks like how to check?ya regarding the addtionals its ok la as they doesnt cost much.. my 2nd service also cost around RM150 if i minus those additional item i think also around RM130.

actually,...if can,...get ori jap mitsubishi parts
especially for things like rubber bush or timing belt...or hoses...
they last much longer than the proton parts (unless ofcourse the proton parts are relabeled mitsu parts in which case they would last the same hahaha)
n the jap parts are usually about the same price as "ori" proton parts (please replace the word "ori" with the word "crappy" )

biasa lah.. they wanna save trouble mah.. its like tat wan.. bear wit it.. haha

err...they are the things that push your valves open...
if u take off the cover where you fill your engine oil in u can see them
...but...i think if u r asking 'what are tappets'...u should get sum1 to adjust them for you
or atleast get sum1 who knows to show n teach you how to do
its quite a precise job n requires a little skill

timing belt no need la can buy from outside.. the bando brand sell whole world.. many manufacturer also order from that manufacturer just tat they replace bando with mitsu or wat.. the factory is near by my house.. anyway wat is tappets?

any picture?
after join this forum i become so noob
so many thing i dunno.

btw is it nessesory to change gear oil on 1st k?

Good afternoon.........just awake.
not yet brush teeth

5k already lo need to change... singchaii change at 1k. change jo feel smooth when changing gear.. RM20+ only i think..

yeap
should
thats to remove any fine particles which were left over from production
new cars dun need
i think their 1st service is at 10 or 20k or sumthing
but iswara is old tech
so i guess should still do it

1st service i was quote RM130+ i change engine oil RM80+, oil filter Rm10+ screen wash RM6+ oil filter magnettrap RM60+ then become RM160.. RM130+ is with the Petronas Mach 5 i use petronas syntium 800 so become RM160+

Added on October 26, 2007, 12:56 pmif change gear difficult then change loh if not leave it till 5k.. if u din complain i think they dun change geh i dunno la different SC different cerita mine is EON so IF they fark me up i ll make sure their @ss pain as well... so far the thing i not satisfied is abt they make me wait 2 months plus for my rear seat besides that everything is ok.

actually,...there is
my dad lastime used sumthing like proton n bando all...
then always change at 80k,...if u stretch the belt on the inside can see cracking d...n a bit of the reinforcing fiber oso exposed d sumtimes
but my dad just changed again...90k this time...and it was a mitsu japan this time...coz his mechanic friend recommended
the belt still looks in good condition!
much much better than the other which he changed at 80k
could prolly go till 100k oso n still tahan
im not sure about the technical specs n who makes for who...
but this is 1st hand eye witness testimony
so...just my personal suggestion from experience lor

now much that belt cost? thanks for the info i ll take note of it.

Hi,

I have a Iswara Aeroback 1.3 2001.
My problem is when i accelerate, my car will steered to the right and when i release the accelerator, the car will come back to straight line. The problem become more apparent whenever i negotiate a right hand corner at 80kmh and above, my car just (suddenly) steered to the right all by it self.
Mechanic said it could be due to worn out lower arm and suggested that i change the lower arm for both sides.
Any commends ?? You guys have such problem ? Any idea of the cost of original lower arm ? Any kedai potong in Puchong selling lower arm ?
