Trajet onwers?

[Multi]

Any Trajet owner out there care to share your experience and what kind of mods you did on you car? I am drivng a 2.0 auto so far only 3 weeks old. So far so good, I get about 9km/l which I think is quite acceptable. Any ways to improve that?

Aside, Tot I not driving a Trajet, my friend is driving one.. He have done grounding and he felt the improvement.. The next thing you might want to look at, is how to channel more 'cold' air into the engine bay.

 

Cheers.

hi multi,

For what i know that about trajet 2.0 is the fuel comsumtion is around what you mentioned i.e 9km/l, as the body is more on the heavy side V.S the 2.7. I would advice you to hold all mod if you want to keep your three years or 100k warranty. simply things like gounding the vehicle can turn ugly if you short something to ground. other things like after market sport's rims fixed by you can kill you if the wheel bearing give way as tomato can turn around and say that the bearing is damage by the wrong sports rims.

 

other things that most likely that will happen to trajet is battery will fail before 1 year or 20k, please if you wishes you will have to get them to replace your battery assy before the 1 year 20k mark is up, check engine light is another common problem theat may surface on trajet. lastly as i mentioned please bear with tomato for the frist 3 years and 100k as you will sure need them to do warranty claim.

 

hope my .2 cents help

 

cheers karen

Hi there,

Thanks for the advice, whatabout changing the air-filter to K&N in box and the spark plug to Iridium, will that increase the performance somewhat, will that viod the Warranty? Are you driving one yourself? If yes, what have you done to yours?

 

Cheers!

[Karen]

hi,

my mum "used to owned a accent", and we are told by the service guy from tomato to stay clear from all mod before the warranty is out, yes all the above you mentioned can increase you vehicle performance, BUT as mentioned in the check engine warning turned on (if you hook up the CAI or somr KNN stuffs) and if your TPS sensor or o2 sensor is damaged that the repair cost is on you even your car is under warranty. no i driving a skoda 1.8t and the only thing i did to the car is........nothing i am driving a stock vehicle. i hope my 2 cents help

 

cheers

Hi, I am also driving the 2.0L trajet(3 mths old) and averaged about the same 9km/L. Considered very reasonable for a full sized MPV. Mine is Peacock Green and if not mistaken any trajet before 2003, got no airbags. Mine has twin airbags. yours too rite multi?

[Hidayat]

Hi, sorry but what car do you own?

[Saaber]

Hi,

 

Welcome to MCF,

Hi Hidayat,

 

I am also driving the same colour as yours. The Peacock Green, which I find it quite special because if you look at it at a different angle, the car actually look blue and if if you change angle it turn green. Mine also comes with twin airbags, heard that Komoco is not bringing in anymore Trajet with Airbag, we should count ourselve lucky. So, what improvement have you done to your car, mine I've change the plugs to Iridium and also the air filter to K&N inbox type, before the changes, the fuel consumption is very high and the pick up is very slow and also you feel very underpower. Now, it feels more lively and the consumption has improve abit. I intend to fix the Super Fuelmax, heard it will improve the performance and also consumption, what do you think? Maybe, you can recommmend me more tips....

[Adawang]

Hi all,

U guys are lucky to achieve 9 km/l.

I have been monitoring my consumption figures which averages 6.5 km/l

My right foot may be heavy.

The car is standard with diy grounding n magnets.

Any ideas of improving the consumption?

I am thinking of changing car for something more exciting but a bit reluctant to

do with 2 rows of seat.

I am used to its space and its comfortable.
