guys, is it possible for this part to spoil?
I went to check my absorber and a mechanic say its working fine...but there's a noise coming from somewhere else. Checked engine mounting also its working fine. He say it could be this part...wheel bearing or something like that. Chinese call it "chea kiok"

mayb bearing or ball joint problem...

I suspect so...the problem worsened after I changed the tyres. Maybe the thing they used to loosen/tighten the nuts caused more damage. Its really bad now...very noisy and annoying. Luckily I didn't change the absorbers...otherwise would've wasted money.

any idea how much it would cost to replace?

loosen n tighten the nuts is not touch any part of the lower arm, bearing n ball joint. when u heard the sound? when turning left/right?

and when driving normally...and also when braking...
pretty much almost all the time now.

Mine also ler, tap on the brakes, one tuk sound, sometimes when u move slowly, there are several tuk tuk tu sounds

And when u do a full turn (left or right) and accelerate, then got 1 loud tuk sound...LOL

you didn't try to fix it? Its really annoying man...I also scared it could be something important. Later that thing come loose and I'll be seeing one of my tyres going faster than me

hi...any expert can help me?

i have a wira wich i bought back in 1993 (1st release)

is a auto 1.5,

my friend say is 3 gear only...but i remember is 4 gear..

so..anyone know the gear boxis 4 gear or 3 gear?

The sound is annoying indeed but not all the time ler, got used to it already
My next service I will go and check

4G15 = 3 gear
4G91 = 4 gear

So Wira 1.5 is 3 gears unless u did an engine swap and plonk in a 4G91 auto

really 3 gear... the sales man cheat me for over 10 year

mayb the salesman talk about the 4g91 gb....

when i buy that car...he say is 4th gear...

you drive that time cannot feel the g-force meh? That's the only way to be certain. I just can't remember if stepping more or stepping less will let you feel the feedback more.

wat is g-force?

everytime a gear changes, you should be able to feel a faint jerk feeling. Dunno how to explain. Basically you should be able to feel the car changing gear when driving. Pick a long straight and try to focus on the feel of the car. If you have a rev counter it should be even more noticeable...
