QUOTE(thefryingfox @ Feb 17 2009, 08:59 PM) i just found out that there is a part called fuel filter. i thought all this while fuel filter is oil filter and vice versa until i saw someone selling oil filter and fuel filter somewhere in garage sales. anyone changed that? i have not changed mine since 10k man. freaky! btw anyone can help me? i feel my car when i press my gas, take sometime before the car moves..like a thud then only move..... and when i press and let go my gas during low speed, got this funny thud thud like the petrol not going in as my response. For fuel filter, I've change it at 100k KM. This fuel filter located below car chasis at right passenger seat. Better change since i've been told to one of people he had to overhaul his engine just becoz of ignorance to change fuel filter.. When last time saw my mechanic change tis stuff the old filter was full of carbon..  Maybe changing this could eliminate your problem now.. This post has been edited by b48753: Feb 18 2009, 09:47 AM

QUOTE(jackyleo009 @ Feb 18 2009, 05:30 PM) Engine died whenever the engine start from cool...Even few hours after I park my car in parking... I try to start my car... It will died for 1st attempt , 2nd attempt and maybe 3rd attempt then just can start... Somebody told me is the A/C pump problem...That one located underneath the back passenger seat... Any suggestion? That's the fuel pump. Just open rear passenger seat cushion (not the backrest) and underneath it has a round plate cover (mcm tin biskut cover) inside there there's a like a bottle with 2 pipes.

QUOTE(jackyleo009 @ Feb 26 2009, 09:59 AM) Same problem here... When start engine during cold, the car seems to died after the rpm revving high for a while... Fuel pump change, fuel filter change, spark plug change, plug cable change, engine oil change. The problem still exist... So any recommendation or solution to my problem? Between, last time I heard forumer here talk about MUT tune up? Where to done this? Location? 4g18p engine... Added on February 26, 2009, 10:01 amSome people told me this is normal for the car to be like this... And they told me I need to press the oil pedal for a while to let the rpm stable... Means ram the engine before it went off... Anything need to be change? Betwee, the throtle cleaned d...Maybe will try decarbonize to see any difference... For me it's not normal for engine to die after the rev is lower from the cold start. Since Waja engine is injection, so many factor you have to check. Other than you've mentioned now it's the time to look at electronic part. MUT tune could be good option for you to rectify this problem. At least they could diagnose on the problem of you injection system.

If not try to start your engine, then while engine is running disconnect the postive terminal of your battery, for 1 minute. Then reconnect it and let the engine idle for moment. This is the simplest way to reset you ECU reading. I had the same problem like you before when my car battery 'kong' before.

QUOTE(yngwie @ Mar 12 2009, 10:38 AM) thanks a lot. i noticed a few screw with a loose bolt on the plastic inner fender too... the one that cover the the wiper water tank... btw, i don't even know which type of coolant used by the previouos owner. can i just dump a toyota coolant into the coolant tank reservoir? it's almost empty  My pleasure to help... Better get back the screw for the fender, if not it will be annoying for you while driving at high speed. Coolant thing, better flush b4 add another one. Any brand can be used, no problem bro..but look at ur expalination better check ur radiator cap and also radiator cover for any leaking..coz last time our member John also have this problem with his 9yrs old waja.

QUOTE(yngwie @ Mar 13 2009, 10:03 AM) are you using RainX rain water repellent with Silicon wiper? from my experience, RainX doesn't get along well with silicon wiper. rubber based is more compatible with RainX. Even RainX also giving probelm with normal rubber wiper. Your wiper blade will sure make sound after using RainX

QUOTE(jolipoli81 @ Mar 16 2009, 11:21 PM) today my power window failed me, for the very first time since my father bought the car back in 2003 it is the button that failed, couldnt wind up after winding it down. does anyone know how much does the whole button unit cost? If you went to buy it at spare part shop it's much cheaper. The switch cost at most around RM70.
