Just ride it for the first time today. pick it up at PJ proton showroom on 3.50pm. First impression is quite ok,, but still the sound from right front when turning to the left is quite noticeable.

My car is Silver MT M-Line.

Wow... cracking all over the place...  blink.gif  Been reading about the brake pads yesterday. Some possibilities on why it fails might due to didn't do brake pads bedding-in properly and the brake pads operates way above its max limit temperature (since u were going downhill genting, might be a relevant cause)

yup... while going downhill... i have to press harder den usual cz wid fully loaded (my brother ad occupied 160kg of weight + my family) to think of safety i have to go slow...

Just wondering if there are any moles planted here by Proton competitors to discredit the Persona. I have been using mine almost 6 months touching 7K Km & SFSG. Boys & Girls, don't forget to lubricate the door glasses that slides up & down the window weatherseals. Can be quite tight when car is new causing strain on Door window regulator mechanisms & motor. Quite obvious for two things always rubbing against each other if you get what I mean. Applies to us all as well.

you can check with all Proton Edar Main SC. They have a spare part counter and you can source from them.

last time they quote me RM90 for one set of carpet for the bonet.

you can judge visually by looking at the color of the coolant....even its green, the properties in the coolant might wear off..... best i would say for coolant change is every 20-25k....

my front window started to have this kind of symptom.can recommend which lubricant to use?
*
Have been lubricating the door window glasses of my car regularly (say twice a month for the last 6 mths.) since I bought it. Do it right after you have cleaned the car. If you are too busy to clean your car thoroughly, at least try to wipe clean the door windows (inside & outside) thoroughly or else it will scratch when wound up & down. Believe me, you will feel good driving with a car with clean clear windows. The front & rear windscreens are not so critical. Leave it to nature if you are too busy.
By the way, I use the WAXCO AUTO SILICON SPRAY (WX300AS) 300ml. which can be found in most hypermarkets. There is a 500ml size also. Got mine at Carrefour. Price is reasonably cheap. Check the link below :-

laugh.gif ...normally coolant can last 1year or 20k.....for coolant you dont need to use proton ones, try caltex long life or toyota long life...that can last you even longer as twice/triple longer compare to normal green coolant

just install zaptor evolve last sunday.

the effect are not too significant but still worth to have it


after installing zaptor evolve :

a)lighter pedal feel/ easy pick up

b) noise from engine reduce ( but still considered quite noisy compare to other car)

c) brighter light/lamp

d) air-cond cooler than before

by the way, does installing vs void the engine warranty? heard some forummer said ( other forum) need to remove the vs whenever send for service if not will void the warranty. izzit true?

ya i try with cheaper one ( zaptor evolve) before upgrading to pivot in future to feel the differences after installing vs.

by the way, why all the accessories shop sold those pivot vs the price range so huge difference. it can cost you from rm50 to rm 300++ for the same pivot vs. how to differentiate genuine pivot and fake pivot ah?

Can be a little bit difference in power.

You can DIY it too. Just buy the small tube which can be found in any fish shop (those tube to supply air into the fish aquarium) and a syringe. Put the tube inside the dipstick hole and the syringe as a suction method. Suck it until the end of the tube, take out the syringe, then pour it on a container (make sure it is on the ground) and lets the gravity do its work (it was a basic experiment in physic form 4 laugh.gif )

for those having H-line or se, may i know whn you parking on a hilly area...how many "tak tak" sound for the handbrake you have to pull up to avoid your car slip down? SC told me 7 "tak" is proton standard... sure?if 3-5 tak my car will slip down...

QUOTE(alt3ch @ Feb 28 2010, 12:30 AM)
first i get my car 3 "tak" is enuf, now seen like need more...just thought will it be problem on my braking system?
*
Standard guide is 3-5 tak for handbrake to station your car... If not 3-5 tak, maybe your pad had is thin... ask mech to adjust your handbrake to 3-5 tak if the pad still usable..

Did the Voltage stabilizer will void the warranty from proton? Anyone install it ? Izzit really effective as below...
* Improved audio quality.
* Increased torque and response and power.
* Stabilized idling and improved engine kick over.
* Increased headlight brightness.
* Improved fuel economy.

Guys, how's the transmission lag on the AT line?

I'm thinking of getting the SE, but if the AT lag is like the MyVi/Saga, I'd have to go for the MT.

i belive only manual can achieve that figure.

for auto should be around 0.17 - 0.20 per KM
*
7.5l=100km
1 liter = 13.33 KM
RM1.80 = 13.33KM
RM0.135 =1KM

nahh..it is possible to achieve RM0.13-RM0.14 per KM with auto. 0W-30 /0W -40W engine oil and a light foot brows.gif

i guess you get the 7.5L per 100km from the meter reading, it's totally not true if you calculate manually.

my meter always show between 7.0L - 7.2L per 100km but in truth the oil consumption is between 0.18 - 0.20 per km

mine AFC meter can't be trust it's shown more than that.I calculated it manually. Will do it one more time.Anyway there are lot of variables involve.Maybe i can get that figure because i don't carry any passenger everyday ,drives more on non peak hours and my weight is less than 70KG.

The 1.6 litre Campro engine in the Persona is the same 82 kW (110 hp) unit used in other Proton models but with an improved cast aluminum oil pan design that reduces the chances of damage. A transmission control unit re-calibration on models with automatic transmissions reduces the hunting of gears and improves gear changes in an attempt to mask the dip in the torque curve in the lower and middle rev ranges. It has been announced that in early 2008 the Persona will be equipped with new Campro engines that incorporate a new variable-geometry intake manifold module (Campro IAFM engine) which improves low-end torque and high-rev breathing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_Persona

i guess all persona manufactured after 2008 should come with IAFM module

Added on February 28, 2010, 10:00 pmtoday just flow out my motor oil which have been over added since last service. after 3k of mileage using the petronas syntium 800, the motor oil was so damn dirty....btw, current level for my motor oil is 5mm lower from the max level. this should be ok rite? accidently drop the nut whn try to withdraw the oil, and the motor oil flow out a lot...i guess around 800ml flow out (half bottle of 1.5l coca cola bottle). after that i went for test drive, wah...the car really light a lot.....

Guys, how's the transmission lag on the AT line?

I'm thinking of getting the SE, but if the AT lag is like the MyVi/Saga, I'd have to go for the MT.
*
do you mean transmission lag during normal drive or when want to overtake?
I would say transmission is quite smooth for normal drive. doesn't feel lag to me and doesn't feel dragging either. just nice.
as for overtaking, there's around 1-2 second lag like myvi. saga, never driver before so can't compare.

For me, i owned and drove myvi automatic for almost 4 years and now owning Persona automatic for more than half a year. Comparing to Persona automatic, i would say Persona's automatic is really really far better off than myvi's automatic. Why?

1. Much more smarter gear programming
2. Smooth shifting
3. Comparing the lag, myvi's automatic lags soooooo badly compared to persona's automatic. Tested with other myvis as well to confirm.
4. Result, overtaking was much easier as the auto kicks down very fast, smartly holding onto the gear necessary for power and easily so there was almost no lag. In the myvi automatic, i find myself on many occasions whereby i manually down shift the gears for quick overtaking rather than waiting for it to lag. In Persona, almost never needed to do so.

was it after heavy rain or not? if not, most probably due to a loose or disconnected air-cond cooling coil drain hose.

of course ur fuel tank cannot auto cut off.... there is no such thing anyways. its because of the pump nozzle. its either u placed it incorrectly into the filling hole or a defective nozzle.

In d year 2006, Persona did not exist. Proton launched Persona in August 2007. It was a rush job. Simply used common engine & gear box parts from 1.6 Waja/Gen-2 on to new Persona body. Current IAFM models come with polymer/plastic like Intake manifold which is significantly lighter than the Non-IAFM models which is fitted with cast iron Intake Manifold. Air filter is also totally different. Just look out for these differences. Non-IAFM models can be fitted with the IAFM & Air Filter assembly but what is the point. Might as well buy the latest model.

get to stop it faster before it cracked more.. last time i repair my gal's myvi and its cost around rm50 with 1 year warranty which means if crack extend they will repair foc.. but depends on the length of crack.. if im not wrong within 3 inch likely will cost around rm30... and not more than rm50..

do you mean transmission lag during normal drive or when want to overtake?
I would say transmission is quite smooth for normal drive. doesn't feel lag to me and doesn't feel dragging either. just nice.
as for overtaking, there's around 1-2 second lag like myvi. saga, never driver before so can't compare.
so far i can only get max about 12.33km per liter on my SE and that's hell lotsa highway driving too.
*

During normal driving and overtaking. The myvis I tested had about a 1-sec lag before the gas kicks in; like REALLY kicks in. The Saga on the other hand is just so bland.

At 12.33km/l that's about the same as my old car, so I won't feel the pinch. smile.gif

QUOTE(jasondotcom @ Mar 1 2010, 09:34 AM)
For me, i owned and drove myvi automatic for almost 4 years and now owning Persona automatic for more than half a year. Comparing to Persona automatic, i would say Persona's automatic is really really far better off than myvi's automatic. Why?

1. Much more smarter gear programming
2. Smooth shifting
3. Comparing the lag, myvi's automatic lags soooooo badly compared to persona's automatic. Tested with other myvis as well to confirm.
4. Result, overtaking was much easier as the auto kicks down very fast, smartly holding onto the gear necessary for power and easily so there was almost no lag. In the myvi automatic, i find myself on many occasions whereby i manually down shift the gears for quick overtaking rather than waiting for it to lag. In Persona, almost never needed to do so.

Thank you so much your response; if the transmission lag is as close as (or better than) a 20-year-old Volvo, I'm a happy camper. biggrin.gif

hello all

mind to add me in? persona se blue haze.

just got my first service done.

1. petronas syntium 800/15w-50 sm = RM 97.00
2. oil filter = RM 12.22
3. screen wash = RM 5.20
4. compressor oil = RM 50.67

items 3 and 4 are like not necessary but i didn't reject any, first time at the sc, not trying to nego so much.

the sc only sells petronas filter, i felt the noise after first service, don't know is the oil problem or what, i suspect air cond also, cause the noise comes when air cond is on.

another problem is the radio receiver, all radio station cannot be received clearly, ask them to fix, they said it's fix but problem persists.

any idea on how to fix this? tried to switch to fmt, even worst, most radio station cannot be searched.

hello all, my new Proton persona AT Black still leaking water after went to the service centre at SS 15. Apparently the technician at SS15 SC ask me to masuk HQ at Kesas Highway because water was still flowing badly at the bottom of the engine when my car was being jacked up.

The total milage for the persona was only 410km and I got it last week thursday evening.

Another issue is that, I realised the FC quite high, I have read the forums before, they say its normal, but is it normal at 9.3l/ 100km as shown in the indicator?

And bros, which tinted film you guys recommend for persona which is affordable? I realised those tinting centre offered by the salesman was expensive even though after the RM 150 voucher. I calculated that I still need to fork out RM 650 for the whole car after the voucher.

Pls advise bros. Thank you. very stress with the car at the moment=.=

was it after heavy rain or not? if not, most probably due to a loose or disconnected air-cond cooling coil drain hose.

[/quote]

After a visit to SC, the tehnician spray water to the car and confirmed it was not leakage due to heavy rain. Is the hose of the air-cond, that he said failed to connect prorperly. But when my car was jack up, the water still leaking from the bottom of my engine near the back left tyre. He told me send to HQ cos afraid te chasis was a little defect and have some unnecessary water inside. i realised the water flowed quite badly, till all the foot compartments was wet.
The most wet compartment was
1. Front passegner
2. Driver
3.Left back passernger
4. Very little wet on right back passenger.

I did took some pictures..but how do I attached pic my bros?

After that, i went to drive anoter 50km ystd, realised the water was still leaking at the front passenger. A check on it shows that the water was leaking from the bottom of the foot carpet.Time for HQ visit I suppose, appointment was made tomorrow at 9am, wish me luck bro...

thanks for this file bro. seems very useful for me.

for the case of my windscreen, need to change new one already since the crack is too long. doh.gif
after surveyed, the price for new persona's windscreen is around 450-500 bucks. same price goes for gen2.

well, its consider cheap though, thats because persona stock windscreen is using tempered glass, which is cheaper than laminated glass (cut cost). Difference between these 2 are they made in different process. But laminated is safer, tempered offers no protection. Most car that comes with UV stock glass are laminated. i just replaced my fiance's myvi windscreen due to the crack (S-shape 30-35cm long and crack itself with no reason), more expensive (RM650) cause the stock Myvi windscreen is UV laminated.

I heard that Persona integrated with new technology which is IAFM. My question, is all the Persona has such? Or only apply for Persona SE?

Any feedback? I went to Proton show room this evening, the agent told me, all Persona are integrated with IAFM, I doubt about that. Anyone can clarify?

I am thinking that it will have totally change the design or come out something new on it, or not same with the current design.Not much different from the current face lift, and those things also can do it outside. Agree with yhanwong 32bit ECU, don't know what's the different from the current ECU.

well its just a facelifted version, dun expect any major changes from it unless you talking about all-new persona which proton is already in the process of designing. i just hope the 32-bit ECU can be upgradable for old persona. rolleyes.gif

front grill-ugly,prefer the current ones
meter console-even more uglier, big number and the temperature/fuel meter looks sucks...like didnt design properly
rims-not really nice
skirting might not be necessary...

other than that, the 32bits ecu is the only plus point and should introduce upon launching.... laugh.gif ....the beauty of the car not really as nice as the current models... doh.gif

What is the different with the current ECU? As u guys mentioned, new Persona equipped witj 32bits ECU, so what is the exisiting Persona using?


Added on March 3, 2010, 8:03 pmThe current Persona is using 16 bits ECU which branded Siemens. With the new 32 bits ECU, deliver faster & smoother when transfering data/byte from sensor to ECU/ from ECU to sensor. In other word, it give the car better/faster/smoother response.

totally agree... besides the 32bit ECU, nothing interest me in the new face lift... i had KIV my booking for the M line due to the face lift H-line, but i think now i will proceed with the M-line... the sales agent told me that the new face lift H-line cost RM2200 more than the previous H-line.

i think it is worth to install the pivot raizin blue. what mention about the benefit is quite true. i myself had install the pivot raizin blue in my old citroen. it really does help. but on the other hand, i don't think you need to install it into a new car. coz what my car mechanic guy said, don't waste money to install pivot on new cars, bcos car is still new and new wire should be enough to supply electricity for the car.

i check the price with my SA yesterday, he said should be around that price.
and also asked whether the car will be in the showroom this coming friday, he said no memo from HQ yet. normally it will take a week for the car to arrive the showroom after they receive the memo.

the major different between SE and New H-line should be the 32bit ECU and the auto cruise, i think... beside body kit, rim, brake lights

the ECU will have auto wiper activation, auto dimming light, and smoother driving..but this kind of feature should have introduce since it was launch....another gimmick to find more money... laugh.gif

hmmm... so the new ecu just for fancy2 acessories then? I was hoping it could improve the campro low torque, power, and improve fuel consumption hmm.gif If like that, i better invest on Unichip piggyback ecu which i'm being poisoned by a satrianeoclub member laugh.gif

the face lift looks ugly. More like ah beng style. They should improve the car to look more class. I wonder face lift = ah beng mod?
SE one is good. But i don't really like the taillight with the round shape.

New facelift

Rim not that nice. If want many spokes, should be thin since only 15" rim
Dashboard meter ugly, especially the RPM and the fonts of the numbers
Front, i think my current SE nicer and sportier
Door trim, the 2 tone don't look that nice. the light grey color at btm looks like cheap plastic IMO
Seats, personally I still prefer my SE ones than these
Door handle same as current persona SE which is ok
HU, although not as nice as an integrated one, but still ok la with more function. wonder can support phone bluetooth pairing or not

Side mirrors and rear lights drool.gif the only nice things
will ask SC how much those cost if want to change to it brows.gif

after seeing this, really relief and happy that my SE is nicer lol

If you look carefully, the transmission is manual. maybe this particular pic is a M-Line model? coz i think H-Line no manual right? If that's true, meaning the new HU only comes with H-Line and SE kua..

wait till we read what it can do first. it maybe new, but who knows the reliability of the car affected coz not fully tested by Proton? at least our 16 bit ecu has been proven ok.

i asked Proton SC about the rear boot lid cover / carpet... and gathered that it cost RM200 for it??? WTH..... Need to order for it.


Got one new issue now. Current mileage 9800KM.

- My cabin light dun work anymore. The bulb is still good... dunno why it stopped working. Sigh.

-My brake pedal while braking have a little vibe to it while braking. And when high speed braking, pedal vibes and so does the steering a bit.

WTH man...... whts wrong

Actually I saw my friend modify his side mirror, and he put up a light on it, just like the new facelift mirror, he told me just cost less than 200 plus paint it. But 1 thing I am not so ok with that side mirror is the shape is square look, and I prefer the current design looks more sporty. The new rims really not nice, don't know how to explain it shakehead.gif

For me, if they can improve the low rpm with low fc that will be great.

just replaced my front brake pads to Trestor Advantage (Blue) pads. Had great experiences with this pads in my previous cars. So hopefully after fully bedded in.... everything will be nice. Kinda sick with stock Bosch pads.

Honestly, in my years of driving in different cars that i owned before... i never once had any good experience with Bosch pads. It is one of the lousiest pads out there.

Had good experiences with TRON ceramic metallic pads, Bendix Metal King Titanium, Trestor 2 star and Trestor Advantage.

nope, it wont void since the brake pad consider wear and tear parts, which means wear and tears parts are not cover by warranty. smile.gif im going to change mine soon once i going back to sc to collect my car, hopefully they will solve the rear brake drum kliking sound.

Screw the warranty. Been going back and forth to adjust the brakes for several times already. I am gonna go to my usual outside workshop to check and fix the rear ticking drum brakes when it comes back. I believe it will be coming back soon enough.

Note: If ur worried about those black brake dust... then dun follow me using Trestor Advantage pads. Cuz the brake dust is equally as much as original Bosch pads. I went for it because i want better braking performance.

Actually why the rear drum brakes are clicking??? Anyone have any idea??? It is really damn annoying. The mech at the SC told me its a design fault and nothing they could do about it other than to grease the contact part of the backing plate and the drum brake pads. And i think that grease is starting to make my brakes judder..... WTF.

Nah... actually the auto timer is meant for turbo-charged engine only as the turbo needs to be cool off properly before shutting down the engine. Whereas normal NA cars like campro, doesn't need a timer. Unless u feel like wasting a few milliliters of your petrol and looks cool tongue.gif

Please... stop behaving like a kid whom like to show off to his friends when his toys are more canggih than the rest. Here is where we discuss and share info which can bring good or bad to our car so that in the end, we will be happy with our car. We also helps each other in trouble by sharing our piece of experience with the car, not by kicking dirt to each other face. I'm sorry, if you can't understand the simple mutual stuff, you don't belong here.


Getting back to the new facelift, there are a few things that i'm skeptical with:
1) bumper
Attached Image
Attached Image
Yes, using the same bumper as gen2 cps. Seems like saving cost while charging the consumer more

2) front grill
Attached Image
Attached Image
I'm wondering why they didnt make it fully-chrome like a camry for example? At least it would make it somehow luxurious.

3) door handle
Attached Image
usually other car makers when facelifting their cars, the car will comes with a shiny chrome handles, but only proton that comes with a flat-grey handle. I can't comprehend.

4) side mirror
Attached Image
This will be my own preference, but i like the the old mirror, more sporty. If only they maintain the design while adding the signal lamp, i'll be placing my order on the new side mirrors

5) HU player
Attached Image
looks a little bit shoddy, some sort like a rush job. Maybe it is just me?


Anyway, i'll be looking forward to see the facelift performs especially the well-known noises problem that being haunting the current persona hmm.gif

Item 1: Yea i prefer Gen2 Cps front bumper. I think in near future i might wanna change mine to Gen2 Cps version.
Item 2: FUGLY front grille.
Item 3: I prefer body matching color rather than any other colorings.
Item 4: Yes i have to agree with u on this.
Item 5: It's nice to have a single din player rather than a build in unit like what we have now. That USB port is a nice touch as well. On the negative side, yes i have to agree with u also. They should improve on its finishing somewhat and redesign the surrounding casing a little bit. It looks too cheapo.

sometimes if dealing with a A**hole snail speed stupid salesman.... this is what u get. actually the first time i went to the Proton outlet located at Sunny Hill, Kuching. Told the dude that i am interested etc etc... and to get back to me on the procedures etc etc. 2-3 days passed without any phone call.

i wanted the thing done asap. i went to another outlet at LeaseWell Leasing (Proton outlet) sekama, kuching. talked to the salesman and all done within 3-4 days (from loan application to getting my car with the plate number that i wanted).

and guess what? 1 week later... the stupid salesman earlier at Proton outlet Sunny Hill area, kuching.... called me up asking me about the car and he wanted to process etc etc...... i told him straight.... "what the hell??? you are way too slow dude. sorry.... i am already driving one for few days now..." and he was shocked at my replies and said sorry to me. i just hung up immediately. to me he is too slow and irresponsible. too bad he just lost a customer.

if u want fast processing PM me. i'll help you out.

WTF?! Proton should really train their mechanics well..... There is no such thing that "Campro" engines uses a full 4 litres of engine oil! I can sit all day to fight with them i dun mind...cuz its a fact and its shown and proven. 4L of engine oil is really far far overfilled already and there is nothing special about "Campro" as it is JUST AN ORDINARY NA OLD TECHNOLOGY DOHC ENGINE. What is soo special about it. WTH. Please dont talk about IAFM or CPS ok... these technology existed AGES AGO and its being used in many cars found on our roads today and its nothing new at all.

I have been facing STUPID MECHANICS ever since i got my license over 14 years ago. They dunno the fact about engine oil level requirements.

Why didnt u make noise and screw them for putting such remarks in there? I tell you what... PLEASE EMAIL a complain via proton malaysia's website. it works cuz i once complained and they really called me up and asked about my problems etc etc. Email the bill also and ask for explaination. Seems like the SC u went to is trying to be a smartass.

And actually... SC also rip ppls money in one thing that i saw in ur bill. The gasket oil drain. It is basically a nut or the washer depending on what car makes u drive. And there is NO NEED to replace it everytime u change ur engine oil.

dude.... 4L is overfilled. it does no good to your engine other than damaging it in the long term. Its really bad for the rubber oil seals, bad FC and bad for the general internal engine components.

Persona's engine need ONLY 3.7 litres of engine oil (anyone can correct me if im wrong on the exact amount of litres required).

Item 4: Yes i have to agree with u on this.
Item 5: It's nice to have a single din player rather than a build in unit like what we have now. That USB port is a nice touch as well. On the negative side, yes i have to agree with u also. They should improve on its finishing somewhat and redesign the surrounding casing a little bit. It looks too cheapo.

i think you can check the oil indicator... all of the cars do have one... you need to run your engine for few minutes, then turn off engine and check the oil indicator. the oil should be in the recommended zone area, any reading not in the recommended zone means you have to do something about it.

i thought we should check the lubricant oil when the engine is cold? all this while i am checking it when it was cold in the morning. because if the engine is started, of cos it will should lower level as the oil start to stick on the other parts in the internal of engine. we need give it sometime for all the lubricant oil to drop to the base before we get the measurement. as for the automatic gear oil, i know it need to let the engine warm up first before we take the measurement. correct me if i am wrong....

ur rite. 4L is even good enough for a 2.0L car. Remember my wife's Camry using all of one pack of 4L.

I have already done 2 oil changes, one at Proton Edar Jln 223 & another at dealer off Jln. Kepong using my own oil. I poured out about 300ml of my own oil into another container before going to SC. I think the 4L pack actually contains more than 4L.

Some interesting reading about over-filling of engine oil -

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qi...03013243AAmeQ6v


The SC's I went to had no qualms about me using my own semi 10W 40. Explained to them that the oil I am using is also a Proton vendor, Delphi.

actually is a interesting info to share on this... usually the mechanic (not proton service center) will do this way... i don't know why, seems that most of the mechanic will warm up the oil a bit then only measure hmm.gif

ya, why huh? the catalog of the persona says under 5 years warranty or 175,000km which ever comes first... how come the bill says 50,000km only???
i did ask the SA last time on this issue, he said that the first 2 years is warranty under proton, and the rest of the 3 years extended is warranty under alliance insurance. And the other thing is, What is the standard service interval? The catalog says is 10,000km. is it true?

ermmm.... i think logically better check the oil level during hot. This is my own theory, but let say you measure during cold just barely touching the max level, by the time the engine is starting and heating up, the oil molecule composition will expand thus creating an overfill situation.

yes you are right...best is too check the engine oil level in the morning before starting the engine....other than that, even you off your engine for few hours, it does take sometime to get accurate results...so best is morning when its cold....never crack the engine yet..... a lot machanics does not know the way of checking it which they normally start the engine to make it run for few seconds, then check.... doh.gif doh.gif

as for the automatic gear oil....warm up the engine, then shift P>R>N>D>3>2>L by pressing the brake then shift all the way back to N and leave it for few seconds and check the level...

yes....3.7liters is the accurate engine oil level needed...even 3.5liters is more than enough as it will be slightly lower frm the max line...

What you stated is all correct. And yes and yes again and again..... checking engine oil while it has been stopped for quite a while eg. 10 to 15 mins or so..... and early morning before engine start is THE BEST time to check. That is the real oil requirement of the engine. Nothing else.

There is no rationale behind the theories other than this. PERIOD.

The only thing nice about the facelifted model is the indicator light integrated into side mirrors.

I still dont fancy the front fascia, too overly odd for a car like Persona.

yesterday i just collected my car from SC for 5k service and bodyworks, guess what? my rear brake drum tick sound is finally solved! They finally fixed it no sound clicking and my whole brake system is now a lot better than before (just press a bit on brake pedal straight away can feel the force is pulling back the car), guess i no need to worry for changing a better brake pad smile.gif even my handbrake i just need to pull up with 1 tick sound is sufficient enough to stop the whole car from the steep area smile.gif very satisfied with their job now. They even help me to install the orifice valve for free although its not 100% fixed.

the knocking and paintjob are nicely done as well, no one will know my car is being knocked before cool2.gif

any of u suffering from brake judder / vibration? shit man..... mine judder / vibration during braking from 100KMH or more....

Steering vibrate meaning front disc brake and brake pedal vibration is rear drums.... both out. Shit man...... why????????????????

Proton does cover this for warranty right? Current mileage just hit 10k.  icon_question.gif
*
ermmm... brake judder, can be a few things causing it also. It can be the brake pads, or worst case, your disc warped. The steering vibrate, yes the front tires. The brake pedal also affected, means it is coming from the front tires also. The drums only connected to the handbrake lor.

If the braking system failure, then sure can claim warranty. But those like pads or warp disc, i dont think got warranty coverage (unless u just came out from showroom and got problem ady). One thing i afraid, later those sc saw you changed the aftermarket brake pads, they simply said the "not ori" brake pads caused the problem, so no warranty for u. Maybe?

Err... before i start misleading people, i would like to clarify again that the best way to measure the exact oil level should be done during the engine is cold (leave it for a night).

What i posted previously was for those that their oil level just touching the max level and think it is ok. Well, it will be in an overfill situation when it gets hot. So maybe the best to leave the oil 3/4 or 4/5 from the max level sweat.gif

RM530. i think if u go outside workshop for re-spray, should be cheaper.

Thanks. Well i did ask the manager about it, but he said he not so sure becoz when the vendor came to sc that day to fix my car, he was in HQ for training (a hint tongue.gif ), oh well, i guess the mystery for that problem is still unknown. rclxub.gif

sometimes if dealing with a A**hole snail speed stupid salesman.... this is what u get. actually the first time i went to the Proton outlet located at Sunny Hill, Kuching. Told the dude that i am interested etc etc... and to get back to me on the procedures etc etc. 2-3 days passed without any phone call.

i wanted the thing done asap. i went to another outlet at LeaseWell Leasing (Proton outlet) sekama, kuching. talked to the salesman and all done within 3-4 days (from loan application to getting my car with the plate number that i wanted).

and guess what? 1 week later... the stupid salesman earlier at Proton outlet Sunny Hill area, kuching.... called me up asking me about the car and he wanted to process etc etc...... i told him straight.... "what the hell??? you are way too slow dude. sorry.... i am already driving one for few days now..." and he was shocked at my replies and said sorry to me. i just hung up immediately. to me he is too slow and irresponsible. too bad he just lost a customer.

if u want fast processing PM me. i'll help you out.


Added on March 5, 2010, 2:37 pm

WTF?! Proton should really train their mechanics well..... There is no such thing that "Campro" engines uses a full 4 litres of engine oil! I can sit all day to fight with them i dun mind...cuz its a fact and its shown and proven. 4L of engine oil is really far far overfilled already and there is nothing special about "Campro" as it is JUST AN ORDINARY NA OLD TECHNOLOGY DOHC ENGINE. What is soo special about it. WTH. Please dont talk about IAFM or CPS ok... these technology existed AGES AGO and its being used in many cars found on our roads today and its nothing new at all.

I have been facing STUPID MECHANICS ever since i got my license over 14 years ago. They dunno the fact about engine oil level requirements.

Why didnt u make noise and screw them for putting such remarks in there? I tell you what... PLEASE EMAIL a complain via proton malaysia's website. it works cuz i once complained and they really called me up and asked about my problems etc etc. Email the bill also and ask for explaination. Seems like the SC u went to is trying to be a smartass.

And actually... SC also rip ppls money in one thing that i saw in ur bill. The gasket oil drain. It is basically a nut or the washer depending on what car makes u drive. And there is NO NEED to replace it everytime u change ur engine oil.

the rear lip looks ugly. like just putting an aftermarket one onto it..

the bootlid spoiler looks quite ok from the picture though. in that paultan's main page, just look at how the persona rear lamp resembles the sytle of the merc c class shown at the lower part of the page.

from the way it looks, by now im pretty sure each proton shop has one for demo now smile.gif they just need to wait for the register the unit so that everyone can test drive it.

doubt price will be the same. new H-Line, as someone mentioned, it's gonna be only rm500 less than current SE. So most likely M-Line price going to be like current H-Line price. That's what i think la.

What's with the double standards of engine oil change intervals? It is stated black and white in the service booklet. After 10k service mark.... it is EVERY 10K interval for servicing. So why SC states the next 5k oil change interval otherwise? I am going to follow the service booklet. To hell with the 5k service. What a rip off. And by it, i am still within the warranty...

i think it depends on what type of engine oil u use, if us use fully syn then the service interval will be 10k,if semi then is 5k, so i plan to use fully syn engine oil during my upcoming 10k service.

nah i think its just double standards. semi can use till 10k as well. u will notice that there was no indication of what oil can use for how far of a mileage in the booklet at all. if so please indicate.

its even stated here

Proton SC in Glenmarie is really !@@%$#^$%^%*&.... in Dec 2009 when i took my car there for 10k service, i claim the reverse sensor eye with them due to malfunction, but unfortunately they don't have stock and need to place order... and they said they will give me a call once it's ready. so i waited... waited...waited....waited... no call from them.... so today, 8th of MARCH i drive all the way there from subang to find out what took them so long for a pair of sensor... and when they check on the record... they said the part is already there but not yet paint... and ask me what is my car's color... i'm completely STONE and SPEECHLESS! !@#@#$%$ WTH... they don't even bother to give me a call and ask for the color to spray on it! the part is already there for so long!!! damn it... and still want me to wait for another 2days to get it painted...

hmm.. i did my 10k service last saturday... i ask if i can use fully syn.. they say they don't recommend...because sometimes will cause latch to make noise.. not sure what is that.. but then when its time to pay.. they say i can come and service during 20k.. because they already install magnetrap.. they didnt ask but just install..i argue a bit but i didnt ask them to remove cause i want to try and see the difference.. glenmarie sc really like to do this kind of thing...

I have been servicing at Proton authorized service agent so i do not get all this shit... hehehe... But then when something goes wrong and needed warranty claim.... then i go to SC to do.

Actually main reason i do not go to SC to conduct my warranty services is because, need to make appointment and wait for quite a while to get it done. If i do it at the authorized service agent, i can get to choose a wider variety of oils and also, servicing time is far far shorter / faster compared to SC and some more, i can be up close and personal with my ride when its being serviced icon_rolleyes.gif . Another reason was, the service agent i go to... they open even on saturday noon till 6pm. So it suits my timing as i am always busy with work. thumbup.gif

Without any obstruction... i can use the remote as far as around 150 meters. Tested. If in normal parking area conditions... say... ermm... about 8 cars away. But what's the use if can use the remote far2 away... Later accidentally press it while in shopping mall or something.... make u worry only if its locked or unlocked.

Is it true that OEM Gen2/SE smoked headlights are more expensive compared to non-OEM?

What's with the double standards of engine oil change intervals? It is stated black and white in the service booklet. After 10k service mark.... it is EVERY 10K interval for servicing. So why SC states the next 5k oil change interval otherwise? I am going to follow the service booklet. To hell with the 5k service. What a rip off. And by it, i am still within the warranty...

if your is manual, may be is the clutch plate bearing. as that day when i was in SC, the BLM next to me also have such noise which sound like IAFM faulty....but when he hit the clutch, then the sound gone. when he release the clutch, then the sound is back...do try it...

GUYS! i got somethings interesting info to share out with you all... I had done some search on this thing called MAGNETRAP that SC ask you to install when you go for service... have a look at the following link and judge yourself...

Fuel Saving Things That is not what seem to be

sweat.gif


and some of the ppl also commented the following:

In the unlikely event that an oil filter is thoroughly clogged due to the user not having it changed for a long time, say after 20-30000 km, a safety valve opens to allow the dirty oil to recycle back into the engine. The engine will still run but but it would suffer from extreme damage due to excessive particles reintroduced back into the engine. Eventually the engine will overheat and fail.

The magnetrap is meant to trap these excessive particles to stick to the inner walls of the tin can, thus being a second filter for the oil.


B U T ,

Both the pistons and the engine block, which creates the particles due to abrasion caused by the pistons vigorously rubbing up and down the bores, are made of ALUMINUM ALLOY.

A Q U E S T I O N ...

Since when aluminum can be ATTRACTED by magnets?

D O N ' T B E L I E V E?

Use a magnet and try to stick it to the engine block.

that's not special feature. It's stated in the car manual clearly. You should read it. I practically read the entire thing after I got my car. You can also set that the alarm don't make any sound and the signal lamp just flash when lock/unlock. also useful is to set your trip meter display to permanently show the mileage/distance to empty etc and make it not go back to the clock display.

exactly park same like you, they argue that i apply chemical thing that cause the blister. in fact i never apply any thing on the dashboard.

after the 1st replacement i can hear some rattling sound from the dashboard but not so often.

after the second replacement on last friday, so far no sound from the dashboard.

If Im not mistaken, we have to do tighten under carriege (180 tork spannar) for every 20k interval. Just told the sc to do that for you. Normally all dealers didnt do that.

I have one question, Yesterday go to ahbeng workshop. The mechanics told me that persona must use 20w/50 black oil to avoid from tepet(not sure the spelling) rosak. is it true.??????????????

i went there to claim the radio system too due to low signal reception during my 1k service... they told me the same thing... need to wait 3WEEKS and in this 3weeks i need to have a hole there while i'm driving.... really nonsense... they said they need to send it back to Blaupunkt to rectify... sienz~

Damn... u also ka... same as mine lor... I've put a small modified box to cover the hole.

And will it effect the waranty if we put new audio system rather waiting for the replacement proton audio?

Hello guys,

My front stock tyres are already balding and therefore I have been doing some research on replacements. Currently the Hankook Ventus V12 EVO caught my attention because users have given it good reviews on performance and price (Quite affordable) and also because its directional tread pattern looks sexy haha.

However, online research revealed that the v12 doesn't come in our Persona's 195/60/R15 size. The closest sizes are 195/55/R15 and 195/50/R15.

My question is, how will using the 195/55/R15 and 195/50/R15 sizes affect our cars performance? Any light on the matter?

Thanks in advance.

because the width and diameter stay the same and only thickness of the tires are different, your rides should be less comfort.That's all.

the tensioner bearing is actually for timing belt. some said also it functioned as a dampener for the timing belt. it's located at the center of our persona engine belt. maybe other taiko can explain better on this.

the SC i've changed located at semenyih. quite good la for me compared to others which I've surveyed nearby this area of kajang/bangi, but still need to wait for 2 weeks..lol sweat.gif

Yes, it will void the wiring waranty thingy only...
Ok, let's give an example. In case the accesories shop technician did something wrong and went into Fire..Yes, Fire! Upon inspection..it's not Proton problem. Go and ask insurance company then...

the showroom (5 minutes drive from my house) had this face lifted version since beginning of March. It was removed from the showroom to prevent ppl coming and checking it out way before launching date.

and the owner of the showroom apparently lives 4 houses away from me and they park the face lift model there too. Kinda nice... looking at its butt. hahaha

He gave me see the information pass to him by the boss and nothing has been stated regarding a new ecu leh...Can anyone confirm this?

If not mistaken, SE no longer in production. If u intent to get SE, that might be year 2009, and u register year 2010, consider 2nd hand car already. If u dont mind, you may get the discount from ur sales agent, at least 4-5k, only that worth.
