for me it was jerking of the car when it was moving. also during gearshifts. my car's a manual. it died while i was driving up a slope. lol. actually symptoms might not appear. if one day your engine stalls randomly its most probably the fuel pump.

ive got another question... if i wanna change my air filter to k&n drop in... can i DIY? or do i need a mechanic to do it? how much would it cost including labour?

Drop-in air filter very easy maa...u can just do it by yourself....open-up the filter box, take-out the old one & replace with new...plug & play... icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif .......original K&N retailing around RM200-RM230 here in lowyat garage sales......

last few days, my 6 years old car start giving me weird problem which rarely heard from any wajarian.....

it was the reverse sensor and reverse lights....now the reverse sensor and reverse light seems doesn't activated whenever i engage reverse gear....i only realised that when i bang into parking wall inside basement parking (reverse parking)...my sensor doesn't produced any sound which made me felt the wall still far away, then suddenly bang!!!! i was like SH*T!!!! vmad.gif ....luckily i wasn't 'bang' into a car and it just like a minor 'bang' only sweat.gif sweat.gif ....

at first thought i suspect my reverse sensor malfunction already or going weirdo (coz i just finished washing the car before that)...but then i noticed my reverse light also not turned on when i engaged reverse gear rclxub.gif rclxub.gif ...after several attempts of re-engaging my reverse gear then the reverse light & sensor working as usual....

now each time before i reverse, i have to ensure the lights & sensor is activated....if not, i'll keep on re-engaging the reverse gear until the reverse light & sensor working...it's annoying, i cannot afford to do that in emergency situation or rushing time....it's also dangerous if i reverse without the reverse light coz anyone behind me may not aware of my actions.....

my car is manual 4G18 engine...anybody happen to experienced the same thing and have DIY solution??? icon_question.gif
i don't wanna bluntly head to EON on Proton Edar which may end up my gear box being dissemble to diagnose the problem and get con sweat.gif laugh.gif

The sensor are powered by tapping power from the reverse light. Maybe got wiring issue due to loosening contacts.. hmm.gif

starting last week i noticed my air-cond getting smellier especially during first few seconds when i turned it on....moment after that it gone, or maybe i get used it rclxub.gif ....it smell like a pile of wet stocking or perhaps rotting cockroach laugh.gif laugh.gif .....kinda irritating and not good for my health sweat.gif .... i remember i did service the aircond but it's about 8-10 months ago la.... service like cleaning the cooling coil, changing oil, dryer....mine is 2003 4G18......any recommendation to get rid the smell??? some suggesting me to take a look at the cabin filter or perhaps condensor/fan coil if it getting dirtier....
