Hi guys,
I'm currently driving a Perodua Myvi aka Daihatsu Boon/Sirion or Toyota Passo. the engine code is K3-VE - a 1300 cc 16v doch engine. i'm thinking of getting the engine taken apart and changing the piston rings and seals as its clocking 180,000km on the ODO. The auto tranny is giving some issues as well on the reverse gear and the OD. the reverse gear engages after a few seconds and gives a jolt while sometime the OD kicks on/off without me pressing the OD to off/on. when it comes on/off, i'll stop the car and switch off/on the ignition twice and it'll be ok...found a recond gearbox which soon will be fitting it in. about the engine..is it wise to get a full engine balance job which includes port polishing the head, 3 angle valve job and a crank balance job? - i'm also looking at to Bolt on the turbo kit from the K3-VET engine which some of us have done. awaiting your replies/comments
