Exhaust mod on perdana v6

[hex999]

the radiator cost rm700, and the hoses each for rm100.. so all for RM1k including workmanship.. i feel I've been conned, but according to them it's a triple layer..

well quite disappointing, yesterday i test high rev at up hill like for 10 mins in genting and i notice my temperature went slightly above half, maybe like 60%.. when i drove slowly up hill it when down half.. so what could be the problem? Right now I'm not sure if they put back my old thermostat, cause it feels like im running with no themostat cause of my RPM reading a bit high.. could that be the problem? and i changed my fans from direct to automatic since the radiator is fixed.

wah so expensive ah? havent heard of tripple layer before though....
but i dont think its worth it...even GReddy taiwan is rm300++...but good enuf la....samco hoses Rm90 for both...if the rubber ones much more cheaper.

 

[hex999]

Well, what is done is done, i checked today there is a themostat, and could it be temperature increase because my aircon was on during reving high at uphill genting?

 

[DanzEterna]

u mentioned u changed yr water pump rite? how bout the belting? still got thread?
radiator cap changed too?

 

[hex999]

Water pump changed before, radiator cap is new, it came with the radiator.. now i got another big problem... my engine oil leaking terribly, today I notice at my car parking lot got alot of oil drips and below my engine like a small puddle of engine oil.. my car just done the fucking top overhaul and now i get this problem.. man this v6 is having her period.. right now I'm thinking that I just changed my spark plugs to denso iridium spark plugs, could that cause the problem? or oil seal, or even worst..maybe the shop that did my top overhaul use some cheap gasket and now thats the problem?

oil sum nut all changed recently and exhaust go no white smoke

need some advice a.s.a.p sifu's,
and im interested in joining the vsixers , who to contact :D

 

[mymax]

wow. only done top overhaul and this problem arises..
top overhaul should eliminate this prob.
but to be sure, check which place that the oil leak comes from..
it may not be from the head or rocker cover or even the engine.
maybe comes from the gb..

where do u live bro?
u can get the borang from me.
or come to our TT which are 3 times a week at different places in KL/Selangor..

 

[hex999]

I went to check it, and it was the oil switch that bakar, some kind of nut that control the oil pressure at the engine, changed that now problem solve, cost RM40 :D, neuro, how can I get the borang from you boss?

or call me la: celcom-3341721..

so far temp never naik at all, just only that day when I rembat at uphill genting, could it be because air con on?

 

[DanzEterna]

always turn off yr aircond when u wanna rembat....

 

[NeuroOne]

well actually, if u ON aircond, the aircond fan may support the radiator fan to suck heat from the radiator, so i like to ON aircond when going uphill.
and i never experience temp up when my engine is healthy.
so for me, maybe there's something else causing your temp up..

 

[hex999]

To all sifu's i need some advice regarding my radiator spare tank, as i notice it always kurang kaw kaw, sometimes kosong and i got to top up water sometimes, I doubt it's in the engine, my mech checked for any hose leaks and could not find any, so what could be the problem? water pump?

have u checked ur thermostat?

 

[hex999]

Yeap, its a new themostat..just checked last week and also cleaned the insight+ did flushing at AG motorsport anyways, I had this problem since I got the car from my sis, the problem is still there even with my new alluminium radiator, so dont know whats wrong. the spare tank goes empty after going fast on long distance, but if normal use it doesnt go down.. so dont know whats wrong.

 

[NeuroOne]

have u ever cleaned the insides of the water way?
change all the small hoses..
since u have changed almost all stuff related to cooling to new ones, i'm afraid that some rust may have clogged up somewhere?
