Hi,

Anyone in JB still using A32 original 15" rim (the one with many spokes) and thinking to change rim? mine is 18" Taiwan made, still in good condition, no bent, just has very minor scratch on side, tyre thread 70% left.. TOP UP RM300-00, your rim must be in good condition too as well as tyre. You will bear the workmanship.. :)

interested member, pls call me: 012-733 8979
Thanks..
Looks exactly like my rims, but mine's 17's:biggrin:

Hi Guy & Gals,

I own a Cefiro A33. My Fly wheel oil seal was leaking and got that done last year. Leak stopped but engine oil has been drying up and need to top up up to 4 litres a month. Any good Mechanic to recommend? Should I change engine or overhaul....Thanks Sifus

Sorry for the late reply . The VQ series engine are prone to oil leak after years of abuse due to our hot climate. (You r malaysian rite?) Apart from the flywheel oil seal, you should have replace other oil seal as well especially the rear bank cam cover seals which will leak also. Other places which are sandwiched together with rubber seals, o-rings or gaskets should be looked at too. Sometimes, its quite difficult to check for leaks from the top of the engine . Maybe you could ask your mech to lift the car up , so you could also check from the bottom .

Leaking does not mean you have engine problem . Just seal up the leak and you are good to go!

Thanks

High AlexKRD, First and foremost , can i ask why do you mix and match VQ25 and VQ30 wiring and engine and 2.0 G/Box ? I wouldn't want put this frankenstein in my car unless your mech have done it b4 . It will create a whole load drivability problems.

Second question , if the A/F is the problem how come ur pomen says its ECU problem ? As far as I know, ECU seldom give problem unless you have meddle with it or it have been flooded with water .

hello, just bought a32 cefiro VQ25, i have a few question about my car:

1. Sometimes engine hard to start (cold start and warm start), have to try 2 or 3 times than the engine could start, the engine starter sound normal, no weird sound, just the engine shut back after first attempt, my battery is new, what should be the problem?

2. does anyone know how much is the cost for replacing my cefiro aircond compressor? for the recond unit and any recomended and reliable aircond workshop? i live at bandar kinrara puchong

3. Is there any recomended workshop/specialist for cefiro? i want to do general checkup for my engine, to make sure everything is okay :burnout:

i'm sorry if i asked too many question :adore::adore::adore:

hey guys just joining in the club...

Name: Dotch
Car: 1994 Nissan Cefiro A32
Engine: VQ20DE
Trans: 5F Manual
Wheel: 15" Stock tires
I have yet to change anything in my car. I am now in the processes of changing my clutch, operating cylinder and pressure plate. They went bad and replacement is stock... I an doing my research to see what i am able to press out of this beautiful car and at what price.. next on the agenda is bodywork and spray over and then think about air, fuel and maybe turbine induction.

I have owned my car for about 5 years now.. got some miles on it... lol but the engine is still sooo beautiful, dont flutter or waver if pushed at high level for long..

Bro ... VQ30 engine running on VQ20 gearbox? not advisable coz the final drive is different. You'll bleed petrol man. best to get a VQ30 gearbox if possible.

Airflow sensor is cheap. some kedai potong selling for RM150 which I changed mine 1 or 2 years ago.

The car engine is vq25.
Can be wire connection problem from sensors to ecu. Can be ignition problem. Can also be crankshaft and/or camshaft sensor connection or sensor faulty. Camshaft sensor can have oil in the coupler as it leaks from inside out. Crankshaft sensor also can be dirty from all the engine oil and dirt if the crankshaft oil seal is leaking. Also check to see if the the crankshaft sensor plate is clean as well.
