bro..... NOBODY on earth changes timing belt at every 10k. NOBODY.

normal time to change timing belt is ranging from 80 to 100k. it WILL NOT break before 100k UNLESS you are using FAKE / 2ND GRADE PARTS.

i hv been driving and owning various cars in my life for donkey years and this is the first time i hear ppl saying they want to change timing belt every 10k. I would like to become ur mechanic if can... so i can earn a lot from you ripping you off.

Persona's stock brakes especially those B and M lines with drums at the rear.... the brakes sucks. If wanna maintain more less stock.... i highly recommend you to replace the front stock Bosch brake pads to aftermarket pads. It improves it quite a while.

I have replaced mine with trestor advantage pads. it brakes far better than stock now. there are also reported improvement by ppl changing the master pumps to gen2 pumps or mitsu pumps. why? you will be suprised to know that B and M line personas are using 1.3 litre master pumps.
but if dun wan to spend a lot then just change the pads will do.

Hi Guys,last weekend I went back to PJ 227 to install the orifice valve and my boot actuator. The orifice valve is just a small plastic tube, and they put inside the steering oil pipe, that's all. The process is less than 5mins can gaodim the installation, is very fast and now my car really don't have such funny "klink klank klok" sound anymore rclxms.gif rclxms.gif and this things is free no charge.

For the boot actuator, after they have install the new set of actuator, they found out that actually the boot lock is too tight and that's why it can't use my remote to open the boot. They have spend more time on the boot lock and after nearly 2 hours trying, my boot remote are functioning now thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif I think is more than 1 year I didn't use it anymore and now finally it can function back. They have put some oil and vaseline into it to make it more smooth in order to let the actuator pull the lock to open it.

I have attached the orifice valve picture to share with all of you, that orifice valve is just a small tube only, but it solve the problem icon_rolleyes.gif

Em.... maybe is the SC problem, because this orifice valve is claim by my SC, so I think Proton should know about it, event Serdang n Tmn Midah SC also have such installation for this orifice valve. So should be no excuse that Proton dun know about this.
