Waja Vibrate

[Shamanraj]

Guys,

I am a new user. Nice site. Anyways, i am having a mild problem with my Waja 1.6. Whenever i stop and i am still in D (auto trans)...my cars tend to vibrate alot. RPM seems to be below 1000 at around 700revs. What could be the problem? Maybe i should flush the ATF?

first thing you can do is send for engine tuning. Normally when you engage to "D" mode, your RPM should be around 800rpm and above.

remember to tune the engine - with & without the air-cond turning ON.

yah yah... send for tuning... ur idle rpm gone down adi lor... thats why shaking... normal problem lar... this kinda thing easily lari one, especially on carbie engine...

i think u should send to check the engine main mounting located at the near to belt area...this nothing wrong with the timing. Waja will having this kind of comment problem..

 

[Shamanraj]

well i dont think its the mounting cause when i hit it into N, vibration goes away...it must be the timing or the gear box

Is your Waja still new and under warranty? If yes, better send for check. If no then only you ask for advise from here, such that which mech is good on this or where to tune and solve the problem...

 

[Shamanraj]

nolah....4.5 years ready lah....waranty takda lagi

 

[Shamanraj]

maybe need to flush the ATF...cause it feels heavy anyways.....cause already 70000km......maybe flush with 10litres of ATF and get all the dirt and grime out? Any suggestions?

Did you change your gear oil? If not mistaken is every 2 luboil change, the third luboil change is the time to change gear oil also. If can you have to DIY on your air filter also by cleaning it using a cloth.

For optimum performance, automatic transmission fluid (ATF) should be changed every 30000miles (48000km). The filter should also be changed at this point. Some cars these days come with Dexron III which is said to be good for 100000miles but that's at your own risk.

Change your fluid first and see how things go since you're way overdue for a fluid change anyway. Automatic transmissions are very sensitive to the fluids that are put into them so also make sure you use what the manufacturer recommends.

Auto transmissions can burn out if the fluid and filter isn't changed so beware...

since we cannot give u a prefect answer based on our 2cent ... i think you should check with ur SC..

hmm waja prob.. i too have this prob on my 2003 waja..exact same prob. and my friends have it.. so common that we've come to a conclusion thats its a manufacturing default..sent to EON.. they said nothing is wrong.. anyway i sold it off anyways. my driver side has a noticebly loud wind sound when doing 60-80kmph.. again EON said it couldnt be fix. by 2004 my driveshaft has been making some terrible sounds. got fed up and sold the car..

i m driving a waja too..i face this problem too bro 2 yrs back..mine s worst..i drive at the T-junction then when in the middle the whole car shake then mati engine..die la.in the middle of the road but can start back..i went to do tuning then ok d..maybe u should try before mati engine in the middle of the road..hehe

 

[ntc2000]

ok...bro....u can get some clue in Autoworld forum under waja thread.... This issue also known as common problem for waja....

1st ===> check ur waja tuning 1st.....
2nd===> check ur waja mounting...... normally shaking due to main mounting.....
3rd ===> if both the above is not the issue, then only try to try for the ATF.... but i think is not cause by ATF...

so.. one of the solution is to go and tune the engine..
cud someone give me suggestion where shud i do it, i mean the best place to do it??
is it better to send it to authorised EON sc or just do it at normal kedai papan pomen?? kindda dummy on these things lorr..

 

[Shamanraj]

Guys....solved it. Did ECU tuning, cleaned my throttle body and adjusted timing...all in penang...cekap shop....professional and cheap.....now no vibrate....gain in pickup...fuel better.....

 

[bOnk]

bro, can you post the cost breakdown for me here?!
need to do comparison and prepare for my budget.
going to do the same thing as yours..
thanks in advance.

 

[Shamanraj]

Dude,

It cost RM80 for tuning and throttle body de-carbonizing. Injector cleaning will cost you around RM40 per injector. But this price may vary from place to place.

thanks bro!
