oh yea...some version of waja ECU located at the passenger side (triangle cover) next to door and under the glove box.

Hi all, i'm considering to buy a 2nd hand waja. probably 2002 - 2003 make. Is there any known major problem for these batch of waja, manual and automatic? Any advise what to look out for?

Hi guys,
I just serviced my waja cps at 10,000km. I just bought the car 2 month ago. Lately, there a few times (3 incident) where I failed to START the engine car at 1 trial. I thought that all new cars have this kind of problem. Failed to start the car at 1 trial.

Any opinion guys??

Thanks

Few I can think off....

Power window's
Chassis knocking noise at joint area
Throttle Body failure
Jerking gear shifting, gear 1 to 2 on AT
Door handle broken easily
Glove box handle broken easily
Steering wheel coating peel off
Fuel pump breakdown (can be avoided if not always running below red line)

The only major i can say is power window failure, but we can change to metal type. 2nd is chassis noise, not all car have that. Anyway I'm going to get a second waja for my wife as well hehehehe

anybody know which shop/supermarket sell 3M rubberized undercoating...
like below

try Jusco, Carrefour and Tesco, i remember saw either one selling.

not available at tesco kajang... even acc shop or hardware shop not selling it..
will try carrefoour n jusco later...
thanks

try Ace hardware.. but not all of ace's branch would have.. i used to look for stuff at ikano power centre's Ace hardware..
there its quite big

my waja door handle broken again.. where can i get the enhanced version of door handle that has thicker plastic??

budget constraint and non avaiability of 3rd party parts (no supplier for OEM parts)

proton quoted ridiculous prices, so i planned to smoke my headlamps

the 5-button costs about rm250, which price i think is unjustifiable for a simple thing

the gated shift is rm600+ - didn't get it too since i am savin gmoneuy for LED tail lamps (aka m5 style?)


from my previous exp of burnt ECU, proton says there is only 2 ECU available - the Mitsubishi (for 4g18p engines) and Siemens (for campro s4hbla bla bla engine)

and yes, the mitsu is self learning, and also self forgetting

VDO is instrumentation for the cluster meter panel.

also, since VDO is Siemens (they call it Siemens VDO),

its very nice lar, like perdana v6 sound but more smooth.. always feel want to start ur engine.. according to mechanic at eon edar, this starter have high speed bearing.. so it will start the engine easily even our battery just 10v.. i think its save our battery long lasting.. iv got the price for 150, exchange with my frend cps waja.. he want to sell his car and upgrade to camry 2.0.. labour charge for installation is rm45..

What is the recommended PSI for 195/60 waja?
Front and rear..

i pump in 205 front, 200 rear

I pumped mine Front 235psi and rear 215 instead.

wow....urs is campro or 4g18???...so how much is the cps started sold in SC???...is it the sound like iafm???..

am on 210 front with 195/55/r15. and 195 rear with 205/55/r15.
profile 60 can take 215 f / 205 r. that is if you always carry ppl at the back.
else, 210 f /190 r is fine.

erm.. i think those figures should refer tp kPa, not PSI

if PSI, just around 29 - 32 is nice

29 for comfort, 32 - 34 if you want to save your wheels from kinks and dents from potholes (very bumpy ride)
