buying used satria neo..help wanted!

[friedtapping]

hye, i'm looking for one too, manual, for spirited driving. i read at neo club that before and after 2008 model had different ECU. but i dont know which one is better. and what is the difference between lite and H-line model? As for spirited driving, i hope my neo would have all wheel disc brake and ABS. My budget max is rm40k

any one care to enlighten me the difference pre and post 2008 difference and H-line and lite difference?

mr bikerz ,
do you have any info yet regarding the 2008 satria neo's differences?

sharing my on experiance coz this year i just bought 2nd h-line 06/07 neo i/white color
i saw it at mudah.com n direct nego with owner.what i look for b4 buying this neo;

1.my budget(sure lar this is ur priority too kn?:))
2.neo with good millage,hence low millage will be expensive(universal point of view),mine,@ point where i bought it,clocked around 35k! that is 06/07 registered car bro! owner sgt jarang pakai,terbaekk!
3.stock parts are still good condition! (for me changed the bodykit,extractor n open pod is still worth buying,if major mod like internal engine mod sure ada penyakit sikit2 this one u need to get full history from its owner on your own) n kinda notice car with stock parts is expensive abit than the car with modding parts,this u r point to nego oso.maybe good stock parts will save ur life.
4.test drive! get satisfy.at low speed n a high speed(just dont overlimit,nanti kena saman hehe)
5.compare to at least 3 or more neo on ur watching list as possible.

Hey Bro! We have the same thought! Lol. Im collecting my 2008 h-line auto tomorrow! If i not mistaken, all satria neo have 4 disc brake. Including 1.3. And h-line got EBD also. Not just ABS.

if the car 07@08@09 prod,all got dics break cause at this time no introduction on base line yet.then when base line came out,i think only base line 1.3 dont have disc break.

I have a Neo manual '09 and still driving it to work. Had mods done along the way. I had some electrical issues in the beginning which seemed to be a nagging problem for campro engines. The other problems were like the fuel pump issues.

i tot only the water pump got problem.

just sign loan agreement with bank, my satria neo 1.6 (a) will be ready in 1 week time. 2006 model.. really afraid having probs! prev. owner said the car got 0 problems

 

[stone84]

i had that engine light on issue too..so do u replace the fuel pump?the eon foreman also said to me probably caused by fuel pump.but since the new petronas petrol came out ron 95 extra,it just get better,no light on so far.but i kinda have to be alert if that will happen again.huhu

 

[frank118]

There will always be problems now or later. Dude, we are dealing with moving parts here. They all have a life span. Its how you maintain them. But fear not, with the Neo, there are loads of aftermarket and compatible parts.

So it wont be that bad.
