help .. car experts... (like TF!) i drove the Proton WAJA home today .. i reached home .. the engine idling @ around 500rpm .. was in D&R ... but the car shaking.. dad says he heard some unusual noise from the engine (he was outside the car) i park the car ... & there goes... engine just died.. i tried to turn on the engine.. but the car just wont start ... opening the bonnet .. the radiator cap was NOT THERE !!! it was found nearby stuck on the fan's cover!!! DO YOU THINK THE ENGINE IS A GONER !?!??!?!?!? any tips & advise????
it depend..i think the most serious will be a blown head gasket..unless it is engine oil gone then u gonna replace new piston/ring.. even if it gone..plonk in evo6 waja..LOL my father's waja dunno how many time already the power windows jammed..somemore the door handle borken! plotong
pro-tong ! .. -blown lights ->replace them -handbrake button went it -> ask SC to just adjust it back to place -broken door handle -> replace them -automatic transmission gone haywire -> check circuit board or fuse -weird sound / "krong krong" -> still dunno what happened -power window problem -> check the connectors for power window -quick wear out of brake pads (back left) (6 months or less i think) ->replace them -alarm naik gila / haywire ->send to some shop outside they screwed up the system .. now no alarm .. kay to use key thats why it's asia's bmw .. must spend lots of money on it
common stuffz: out of ~5 WAJA cars i sat inside .. - car booth is stiff (all i think ) - looks closed but sometimes not closed properly (alamr will go off easily) - hand brake button goes in (2 cars) - back seat mag holder falls off (2 cars) - lights easily blow .. (all ) my friends waja.. car booth opened while driving
Don'T add water to the radiator until the engine cools.open the bonnet and let it cool down for at least 2 hours b4 adding water or radiator coolant. Check engine condition tomorrow with a reputable workshop.Hopefully no major damage,
my father's waja... 1. door handle borken 2. power windows jammed many times (replaced the bracket) 3. replaced the stock farking brake pad with lots brown dust 4. alarm system replaced due to hairwired stock alarm 5. many unknown sound coming from dunno where LOL plotong..sotong sounds better
no.. not under warranty ... well .. engine cooled down already .. just tested the car .. the engine temperature is not stable .. fluctuates from 90 .. to almost near the red line .. no coolant yet .. tomorrow gonna get someone to drain the radiator water.. & maybe replace the engine oil ... sigh ...
Err.. Don't try the engine until you have the radiator filled with water. Check your engine oil and see if it's sufficient.. and if it's still okay (not full of soot).
lalala.. what will happen if you pour some water into an empty radiator with an emtremely hot engine answer :
yeapz.. we see vaopur coming out .. we stop adding water .. left the bonnet open .. let it cool down for few hours before adding water
