2003 Perodua Kelisa EZi from Malaysia - Comments

Kelisa is a reasonable buy for the price. Value for money. Why? Because it is economical - fuel efficient and reasonable purchase price. It is efficient cause it has sufficient speed and excellent parking ease. Finally it is effective in getting me from point A to B without reliability issues cropping up.

I own a Kelisa EZ. At first I didn't like it because it didn't have the wow factor. But now, as I've matured, I've come to appreciate its qualities. It's fun to drive and fuel-efficient. Considering the high car price in Malaysia, I'll be using it for a long time.

I bought a Kelisa about two years ago; and am very happy with it, except for one thing. The car is getting water inside, front passenger side and rear left side. The water forms in the middle of the floor board with no sign of water on the sides to indicate where the water is coming from. This happens even if the car is parked. The dealer was unable to find the problem. Has anyone had a similar problem?

Check that your air intake collector area below windscreen is clear of leaves, and check that the heater unit below it has clear drain holes/pipes, as on many cars these can block and overflow into the cabin.

Check roof aerial is watertight.

Check all grommets underneath car and on bulkhead.

Check that the door cards (interior door trim) still have the polythene backing in place-we have found these to be poorly fitted in the Kelisa, or tampered with if speakers fitted.

If all else fails, tape newspaper around footwell to see where it is coming from.

Good luck!
