QUOTE(crashoverride @ Jul 8 2010, 08:37 PM) I feel that the brakes of Proton cars don't bite so well. I wanna change too! But wait till got money 1st. EDIT: Oh btw, my new PE comes with those QC stickers still on it. I wanna remove it but the adhesive part+some paper still remains. How do I get rid of it? Using eraser? lol. I waited about a week or two before removing the stickers. At that point, peeling them off was soooooo easy.

QUOTE(krk24 @ Jul 8 2010, 04:32 PM) I will avoid before you hit me...  ...still will consume more fuel rite..? Added on July 8, 2010, 4:33 pmthanks bro..  will or will not consume more fuel is highly dependent on our right foot.  but its worth it. QUOTE(summer9uy @ Jul 8 2010, 04:58 PM) Yeah, 4-2-1 extractor improves torque..I'm using the hotbits one. Go for it. Satisfaction assured. I have one question for you. You just installed the headers right? Full system or just the headers? If its just the headers, now does ur stock muffler makes funny noises like tin can noises or somethin? Because some cars does that once replaced to aftermarket headers. Just wonderin if it is with Persona.

QUOTE(shelby_yong @ Jul 9 2010, 01:18 AM) boss how ur ride?? try maximum speed already? got few issues at this moment. Turning on rough or uneven surface will having knocking sound. Besides, ICM Relay is faulty, waiting Proton to claim for it. The symptom is "EEEEEEEE" sound when u power on ur car (not start), once u power off ur car, the sound will remain about 5 minutes then gone. Basically these 2 problem i encountered at this period. On the others hand, my car is still under 1000km, never try the top speed. I'll maintain the RPM below 3k before 1st service. FYI, yesterday i just finished my 1st tank of petrol since i got my car last wednesday. I manage to clock it 436km for full tank, 60% highway, 40% city drive. Yesterday i pump 40L petrol cost RM72. You guys can devide and consider how the fuel comsuptiom is.

I went to Taman Midah SC, the manager act like unfriendly and request me to drop my car there for 2-3 days to check further. Then I went to another SC located at Serdang, they check for me and found out is due to the ICM Relay faulty. They will issued a claim form and get it replace once it delivered. According to the worker that, this ICM Relay is very common for Persona Elegance, currently they have about 10 units PE waiting to have this replace.
