questions of buying RD1

[Ace]

super_white,
Is the sound came after the engine warm up hot? Because its normal when the engine is cold with a little bit of "tik tik tik" sound. After the engine is hot its gone. Also, what do you mean by actuator spoiler (original spoiler?)

Nope, the sound is generated from the left hand side of the engine, the "fly wheel" roller and the rubber belt....i'm not sure lah...:X-:

i'm not sure whether is ori or not...:emoticon_U:

super_white,

left hand side as it timing belt or the other opposite side?
Coz I dono you are sitting inside the car or stand in front of the engine with hood opened.

 

[Yu911]

super_white,
When we said right & left, it is sitting inside the car, like right is the driver side.

 

[Ace]

super_white,
Most of the mechanical parts are on the right side if following Yu911 direction. Could you be more specific? a worn timing belt could make that kind of sound too.

[BlackSamurai]

super_white, can you use your phone to record down the sound and post it here.

 

[Ace]

better yet. Pictures with you pointing and sound also.

 

[Daniel Lee]

I'm confused guys!
Before this I heard that ppl saying the timing belt won't show any indication like sound when it's worned.
So can someone clarify whether the timing belt will give indication or not when it worn out.

 

[Yu911]

Daniel Lee.
No, no worning at all, u must check ur km or open the cover

 

[BlackSamurai]

no warning.

 

[Ace]

to make thing clear for you. Yu and BS was right. It is just that some owner use the belt for too long untill there is portion of the belt broke off on the side and it is hitting the cover or it can be that the belt is getting loose for too much worn out. You could slightly hear some sound from it.

 

[Daniel Lee]

Then normally there's a screetching sound also.
Some of them say it's the timing belt sound.
What's the sound actually?
