btw, i just realised last night from reading the user manual. Persona's AT is Invecs II???

Invecs is from Mitsubishi right? I thought Proton claimed since the Waja they are using their own stuffs?

The engine is purely malaysian designed and made or what? Got follow any Mitsu engines or not???

thats what the mech told me    I'm sorry, that was the only pic i took. U can find this part on the engine side, near the brake fluid. It should got the Bosch brand on it. Details..... well, if your engine starts giving ktak sound loudly, it is time 
sc at taman perindustrian Bukit Serdang
Speaking of which, i sprayed wd40 on my fuel cover since i saw a few weeks ago in serdang a black persona  without its fuel cover attached leaving the fuel cap exposed    if i'm not mistaken, bro ralf also faced the same problem right?

hi all persona owners, i hav questions about the tail light of persona. If I turn on the lamp is it all the 4 bulb of the tail lamp will be lights up?  I always observing GEN2/persona on the road at night or braking, one of the 4 bulb will not lights up. I checked mine yesterday and found out my left rear light one of the bulb didn't lights up. Mine is a SE 9 months, is it the tail light bulb so fast and easily to be burn? How much does it cost to replace the bulb?

there's a blm which did ard 190 chase my back during d PD trip last yr 

Hi guys. Please assist me in telling me what rim size and tire series is this. I am looking for this look. Some said is 16 inch rims with 50 series tires.

[attachmentid=1196639]
[attachmentid=1196642]

haha.. but still need to try to find out. Who knows it might bring miracle to our car? 

Just tried mobil. The engine surprisingly quiet (less vibration), but the power is dull.
I wonder those tyres like goodyear eagle F1 or toyo that got V shape thread really good? they look canggih 

Persona use what kind of suspension? does persona iafm and non-iafm use same suspensioN?

guys, i would like to ask that...

since i'm going to do the 20k service, and i'm planning to use the fully-syn engine oil, so that i can skip the 25k service (no need pay the labor fee for 25k) and straight to the 30k service next time.

can i do so?

anyone IAFM spoiled b4?
mine spoiled again for the 2nd time. the famous 'tak tak tak tak' sound like machine gun appear again.

which SC can replace the whole IAFM instead of push rod?

well....the braking is spongy..but after i change to formula imp 600'c...the brake became harder and i do adjust the rear brake drums to fewer click, and now, everytime i brake the car the whole car macam sangat makan until the car's front part nose go forward when i apply the brake hard and i also do tested where i drove 100km and last min brake lets say front got traffic light (but its clear) so i brake when approching around 1 and half pole light, the car can stops before the white line ..... ....i guess just adjust the drum brakes to lower and change better pads....

yea...left around 40-50%...then gatal go try new brake pad... ...what about you???...still on ferodo??

Sounds just like me. I also love changing my pads... to try.

I know exactly how u feel. In my case, it was by my part time maid and it was on my black MyVi (my ex car). I came back from travelling and remembering it was dirty...and suddenly it was sparkling clean.

Check check.... upon close up, to my ABSOLUTE HORROR, swirl marks to my perfectly mirror finish all around the car. I feel like f***ing her already. I really wondered what she used to wash till like that....

Based on my experience, do not and i repeat again......DO NOT USE any SCRATCH REMOVERS stuffs. It will cause your perfectly fine mirror finish to become "hazy". Just apply WAX. If it is still visible, wax it several times.

Hi fren, thanks for sharing out the garmin files & installation guide.
Currently myself is using Garmin on my Nokia xpress 5800. I found that the orignal GPS from my A800 is not user friendly. Therefore I just 'jail' it in my kampung
Now, with your kind sharing, I hope that my A800 can work with garmin and can be released from 'jail' 

Btw, roiss, can you share us the Papago's files and installation guide as well 
If A800 really cannot work with Garmin, at least I can go for 2nd choice. Thanks fren, good job

I sent my car to Sungai Besi Eon Service Centre. A guy told me that campro engine is full filled with 4L engine oil, he said only those old engine fill with less than 4L. Dunno he tipu me or not. 

At 1st, still thinking to bring back the remaining engine oil, keep the stock and combine it become another 4L 

Btw, your SC allow you all to bring you own engine oil?? My SC said NO WAY.must use theirs.

Hey guys, last few days my 1.x years old persona started giving out weird screeching sounds from the front wheel area...this is different from the knocking sound from the front wheel that is so famous in the persona when going over bumps. This sound is a screeching sound and it happens even when travelling on a perfectly smooth road. however, the sound seems to be quite random. When i'm driving, 50% of the time i can hear the sound and the other 50% the car is normal.

Anyone ever encountered the same problem? My car is in the SC now being troubleshooted..hope they find the problem lol. Thanks abunch for your input.

Update: The SC says that my brake pads are worn out..need to replace..the options are
ORI set : bosch - RM 350 (too exp)
Locus (not sure of name) : RM 140, never heard of it before, any input?
Mintye : RM 100 but not goin to go for this as it has bad reviews.

So i told him that i want to buy my own pads and let him install. He says service charge is RM 50. Is this reasonable?
Btw, i'm looking to buy a Rapid Stop pair. Do you know where i can get a pair of this quick? does ENEOS@ 1 utama carry this brand? And may i know the estimated price for RS pads? Thank you.

auto down, up manually....all latest proton models are design this way....

Yeah i just went over to the SC during lunch time and confirmed it. It's Lucas. But what does DON mean? Is it the pad model? How much for a EBC pad? my budget is max RM 150 wor. Also, may i ask where to buy those brake pads? such as RS, Bendix, EBC? preferably within PJ area. Does ENEOS @ 1 Utama carry those brands? Thanks in advance...

success..huh mmg banyak gile habuk!
bangkai lipas pun ada..hehe

wow going to 40k d..mine 40340km up to date...and i feel the FC is getting better compare to 10k-30k mileage....
btw hw is shell's fuel on persona???.....i jz use esso/caltex/bhp so far....still prefer caltex coz acceleration more quieter and smoother...

well, probably becoz it's 100% town driving.
Now i using Caltex ron95. Pumped rm70, and my distance travelled so far is 450km. still haven't empty yet. reckon can go another 20km i guess. but i'm driving LDP highway most of the time.

How much they offered you, and how many years or months your Sona is? I also interest to know.
