Hye all

Just wanna ask if any of you know where can i refurbish a handbrake cable? I have a kancil with rear discbrake, but now its time to replace the cable. I cant source any brand new handbrake cable or any model that have close design to mine.
Thinking if there any workshop or machine shop dat can replace new cable using the old casing.... Tq...

Don't surprise bro, most owner dont even care bout their parking brake. I haven't found people ask, selling or buying their rear disc brake cable...
They even don't know how to get brand new L5 front and rear disc rotor.....

have you asked spare parts shop? So many in KL, right?
or if you are picky about quality and assurance, go perodua SS.
Brake cables are common items that subject to wear and tear, not like ecu, etc.

BTW, is your cable/brakes been modified? or standard?

daihatsu mira L5 isnt hard to find, esp brakes parts. They are quite common as many ppl are playing with it.

However, it would be a problem if you are unwilling to pay for it.

Reminds me of my fren who play/mod his Wira with Evo 2 parts.
However, he only pay the Mitsu EVO parts the same as price of Proton parts. How la wei?

This happened on April 18th. I went for a coolant change for my Proton Persona. I know the workshop and since they were the distributor for the coolant, I trusted in their ability to handle the installation of the coolant.

During the installation, when they had drained the original coolant and had begun to pour in the new coolant, they seemed professional as I expected them to be. However, when the engine started to run, so that they can be sure that the cooling system is functioning...
