could be the "uncle style driving"  + regular maintenance and servicing. avoid carrying unnecessary load.
changed my driving style lately.  seldom goes beyond 3k rpm. auto transmission doesn't mean to be thrashed anyway.
there is a forum member who managed almost 650km on full tank.
i am on stock car, btw.
check around in automotive garage sales. there is a member goes by the name manosh85 selling those double layer sound proofing material.  he could help you, perhaps.  am tempted to have a go at it too but gotta wait till after cny.

i never really push mine due to the nature of waja fuel pump which is very sensitive.
400 bucks in consider cheap.  pesc used to offer 'em around 650 bucks last time.
your waja is 4g18 manual is it? any modification? 

I don't like going to car wash. Especially when they drove our car with their sweaty shirt (no offense). Been thinking about buying those high pressure water spray.

Ok guys! i will update you on my latest DIY project.

Lately i noticed considerable road noise. I checked under the rear wheel wells and found that the black stuff have stripped away leaving the metal exposed.

Went to ACE hardware (again) and bought myself 2 cans of Mar Hyde (you can use other brands too) RUBBERIZED UNDERCOATING.

i used newspaper and masking tape to cover the area surrounding the wheel wheel and wrapped up the suspension with newspaper.The tires need to be wrapped too.

i jacked up my car, wrapped a cloth over my nose and mouth, and sprayed the whole wheel well. 1/2 can per wheel well. I did it yesterday morning and it took 24 hours to dry. 

Today i checked but still not satisfied with the thickness so i decided to spray 1 more layer. Should dry just in time for me to get to work. i will do the front wells next week because its tiring and the stuff takes forever to dry.

Will update you guys on the results tomorrow!

Tips: That undercoating stuff is nasty. Don't breathe it in. Even with the face mask i felt dizzy and had to stop after doing 1 wheel well. Also, don't be a hero and empty the entire can on 1 wheel well because it will take 4 to 5 days just to dry if you do that. even a 1/2 can coating took 24 hours to dry lol.

Also, use another jack to support your car as backup or use a car stand. Sometimes car jacks can fail. Safety first.

maybe after awhile u get seasoned with it, then started to be more sensitive with more low noise hehe.

Our oil filter we change every service, i buy at spare part shop rm12 original..
can get cheaper elsewhere ?

Is it ECL will be light up each time we want to start the engine? And the ECL will lid off after some time...Between it is a bit weird with my car, when I am taking round about and if the petrol in my tank is left with one line display at meter there, It will drop till the petrol warning light up... And when turn back to straight road, it will kick like there are no movement for my car... Means when I press the oil pedal , the car don't see like move for a while then normal back... What cause that? Petrol not enough problem? TB is fuel injection thingy?

i juz purchase the campro style center aircon outlet RM50, would it be expensive?....

T_T... Nobody answer my question... What is the normal timing for a standard 4g18p engine with aircond on and off?

hello all,

Another question to ask, last time, when i adjust my waja's headlamp height(using screw) the screw inside broke and i had to change it with a new headlamp..now, the new headlamp is so much brighter than the older one(which is 8 years old). the older 1 cant project the light beam as far and as strong as the new one.

So, is there a way to clean/restore the old headlamp? at night driving, here in kelantan, the difference is quite big, very noticeable.

Thanks alot.

This video show how to clean the outside part...mine, the problem is with the lens....instead of being transparent when the lights are on, it is now translucent. the problem lies with the lens..not the casing..the casing, no problem because it is made from glass

just curios, is it normal for waja to produced a hissing (shhhh!) sound when we turn the steering while the car is idle@engine on?
btw, no problem with the manouvre thing and the power steering lube
is in optimal filling.
my other car with power steering doesn't have such a problem.

Lacking power....Even climb hill also hard....Please save me and my car...

Anyone D-carbo their car before?

Already change all to NGK iridium... Then?

SOmething wrong with your engine compression. Could be some leaking at your head. Go check each of your cylinder compression.
