Battery kong this morning and after checking then only know that Persona are using DIN battery, and is different from the normal type you can brought it in petrol station totally cost me RM270 so expensive

ACdelco

the size is a bit bigger than the normal battery

Less than 1 year 5 month

I am wondering why the battery kong so fast, but actually, when I turn on the key, all light are doing well, it just the battery not enough power to start the car only

If install voltage stabilizer will it make the battery life longer??

Yaya.... when it totally flat you will headache on looking here and there, some more if you park at shopping complex it will make your day turn bad.

I think is not hard to notice when the battery is going to flat soon, because when you start your car, you can feel that is very hard to start it, and that's the symptom to change a new battery

you need to check for your battery is which type

the first picture is more cheaper, the second picture is expensive. The different is the battery head. Expensive one their battery head is flat together with the battery cover. Those normal type their battery head is protruding。

My car is using the flat one, so is more expensive

But my friend car got 1 sticker stick there stated 5 years warranty. anyone got the same thing??

Yes, i also told my friend like that, and he mention to me, he has call to CEO to check and he told me that CEO claim that the battery got 5 years also, maybe the others 4 years proton give gua. hahaha, I am not sure about this, and he told me that, even thought you bring back the original battery to claim, they will charge it back and put it back to your car. If like that, I think better get a new battery, because the battery have charge, i think the life time also not long and I don't want to get in trouble in the morning and running here n there or call toll truck toll my car to CEO to claim that battery that's not convenience at all

Yes, actually both type is the same,but if your car is using the second type, you can't install the first type, because the first battery is taller than the second 1, and the screw also different to install it. I think if you want to install the first type also can, but need to change the installer which grib the battery.

As the first type, they use a steel to grib it and screw from the top, but the second type, at the bottom of the battery there is a place for this battery to screw it, so it can not use the first type, unless you change the things that tight up the battery. But I am not sure it is possible to do so, because if the battery is too tall, it may hit your bonnet and can not close up.

Hey Guys,

Can you recommend some reliable service center near PJ?? Because tomorrow going to do service

Thank you

Hahaha, if they fill in the whole bottle, then you need to suck it out already

wheel balancing and allignment should do it, and don't cheated by the mechanic to change Camber nut, no need to change it also can do the allignment.

About the brake problem, I have this problem last 2 week, and suddenly my brake come out a metal scrashing sound, but it was not long just few mins then will gone and if you totally stop the car the sound also will gone. Because i was too busy on my work and I have no time to left my car to the stupid proton for checking on my brake so I still driving it to Genting, and when I am coming down, I feel jerking when I am braking.

Last week, I am free and drive to service center for checking in early in the morning 8.30am, I am the 5 person in the que and I just told them my brake problem and my boot can not open and need checking from them, and he reply me I need time to check and replace the brake pads and I think you can collect your car around 3 to 4 pm. What is that!!! just small matter need so many hours to check. you think I am sitting there nothing to do and waste all my time for this small little checking is worth??? So i am asking is it possible finish it with an hour and he told me can not.Since there have so many car to but is kind of bull shit. Then I am asking how much for the brake pads, and he reply RM3++ it could be RM380++ because we are using original brake pads. Wowowowoww this is too much. I straight away drive my car to the nearest Ah Beng Tyre shop to check my problem.

When I park my car at the Ah Beng shop, they straight away serve me and I told them about my problem, they said I can check for you now, just less than 30mins will finish. Now I know what is heaven and what is hell. Some more, I ask how much they will charge for the brake pads and he reply just RM95 only, I am using back the proton original brake pads. I have nothing to said about proton service. What the hell is going on, charge me Rm3++ for the same thing. and Ah Beng shop charge me Rm95. They have open up all the 4 tyre for checking my disc brake and just the front brake pads need to change only. Finally, they have skim my front 2 disc brake for both side, I mean outside and inner side of the disc brake, and it only charge me Rm90. All done within 30mins. Super fast and safe me a BOOM. Now my brake no more problem and I can feel it bite better than before.

So guys, if you want to change your brake pads, don't go back to proton, and brake pads has no warranty on it.

i am also thinking of that way, because it safe a lot in time and also money. Proton labour fees is like Jaw, bite till bone also finish.

RM400 oil i will buy my own and i only expect rm100-200 for SC charge...
if someone didnt mention i also forgot... i never pump the spare tyre from new car until now

Actually is more than RM400, at least prepare Rm500 for the major service, and don't be surprise if the labour fees is more than 100

I found out that, the original bosch brake pad damn easy to create those black powder, I recently change it to original proton brake pad, it doesn't have much black powder and it bite better than bosch

Hi guys,

my persona nearly 2 years and everytime when I am driving, it will have some funny sound like " nyik nyik nyek nyek" sounds,feel it came from the absorber or maybe suspension. Does anyone has the same problem??

When my car load more than 3 person, the sound gone

That rear sit problem solve long time ago when I service my car at sc. they have put on some silicon tape on it and the sound is gone for the rear seat problem. The metal clunking sound and klok klok sound when turning to uneven road still appear I think most of the sc don't know how to solve this problem

what is orifice valve?? where is this things install?

oh, which sc you go??

Wa, so fast gone already ar? just 3 weeks only wor

Mine still ok, but when it start wipe the screen, it generate squishing sounds is so irritating

wish to change it too... what brand you guy can recommend and it won't generate those funny sounds during wiping.
