Campro Problem ?? Cracked Crankshaft

hi guys.. just want to share this info... beware.. !!

Quoted from other forum

I've been trying to find time to do a write up regarding this topic since last week.. I just couldn't because of my workload.. anyways since today i'm free i'll just share my problem here with you guys.. PLEASE JUST TREAT IT AS READ HERE END HERE.. No need to heboh heboh for me.. thanks in advance first.

Ok here goes... exactly 2 weeks ago my car broke down near the Muzium. Its all just happen in a flash. The car was simply fantastic for the pass 3 days before this thing happen..fantastic meaning very good power and good response all round.

I was just about to downshift from 4th to 3rd and then just about to power on the i felt a real quick strange feeling on my gear knob.. like the whole gear level was wobbling.. then shut down immediately.. no nothing.. no pulse on the car.
Tried to restart but couldn't so i free gear and roll to a stop nearby the muzium road.

Tried restarting several times and check everything that i could have possibly think off.. as in fuel pump, fuel line tried resetting the car and still nothing.. so eventually took the plug leads out to check and there was no spark... so i figured the coil could be the culprit, then i called my friend to come over to attend to me and he brought a spare ori coil.. plugged in and still no spark.. then we immediately figured, must be the crank angle sensor..

so no choice but to tow the car back to serdang. Once the car was in the workshop we immediately tried replacing the crank angle sensor.. oh actually we PDTed the car first to trouble shoot.. then it was confirm no signal from crank angle sensor. Upon unplugging my Crank Angle Sensor out.. we discovered that my sensor was smashed already.. and immediately my worst fears came... the whole crank sensor was gone..

and we decided to remove the oil pan to inspect further because we were very sure that the metal bits would have already make its way into the engine.. as in cylinder wall and blocks.. upon removal of the oil pan this was what we saw.

How about Campro CPS engine? Is it same with the old one?.. Is the new engine as bad as the old one?
so far no feedback from CPS owner.. maybe they still new on the road.. hehe..

pasang turbo dan intercooler beri kesan x kat engine campro gen 2.kete sye first keluaran
errr..penapis extractor..?? tak penah tau la plak.. kalau catalytic converter tu tau lah.. yang macam sarang tebuan kat extractor tu.. kalo kite keluarkan catalytic converter tu.. conferm rase pickup sket.. and minyak pn leh save sket..

actually cat converter nih berfungsi untuk menjaga persekitaran.. asap dari ekzos tu di proses di catalytic converter di mana terdapat bahan kimia didalamnya yang menukarkan asap merbahaya ke asap yang lebih selamat untuk alam sekitar..

masalah nyer.. bile ade cat converter, jangka hayat muffler blakang jadi sekejap je.. senang patah, crack.. ni disebabkan oleh penghasilan wap air dari tindakan kimia catalytic converter tu..

so.. suggestion sye, pegi kedai ekzos.. suruh dierang buang catalytic converter.. ganti dengan paip saiz stendet gen2..

konferm korang akan dapat rase beza..

cubelah..
