I seriously believe that MOST service centers do not carry engine oils from Shell. Most of them carry Petronas. If you want Shell, go to the authorized service outlets instead. From there, you can get many types of approved engine oil to use. I use Helix HX7 Semi smile.gif

In ur area however, i dunno la. Sorry. smile.gif

Wow...nice. HOw much was it and what brand? Can show us a photo of it??? Curious.

Ok, installation cost at outside workshop usually ranges from RM20 to RM30. And NO you do not need / not necessary to skim the rotors UNLESS it is warped or causing vibrations. Because in good condition, you skim it, you will be throwing away precious life years out of the rotors.

u wont regret it, quite a good brake pad consider it's price, the powder is bare minimal compare to proton ori pad.

u can compare your front rim and rear rim after few day use. it's a lot difference

Is there Michelin PS3 for 195/60/R15? do you know where to find? I'm going to change my tyres today and am set for a pair of Hankook ventus V8RS. Unless it is confirmed that there is PS3 for our size because so far i've asked a few shops and searched online but the closest PS3 to our size is 195/55/R15...

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks abunch.

check the comments in this page.
http://paultan.org/2010/04/22/new-michelin...ed-in-thailand/

ppl can get 195/55/R15 and 195/50/R15.
as for the exact size of 195/60/R15, i'm not exactly sure if it's available. if really dont have, then can consider going for 195/55/R15 but the ride can be harsher

Yeah i checked that page before and also asked around a few tyre shops but they don't carry the exact size. Btw I'm only changing 1 pair, so I have to stick to the exact size lol...I'm going for Hankook Ventus V8 at RM 205 a piece...do you guys think its a fair price?

You are right bro, standard also can reach more than 180km/h. I'm not going for top speed, I just want it to be better pickup than before. Same like if we mod for turbo and changing engine for better HP, telling people our top speed can go until 220 or more, but do we always drive until that limit? smile.gif hehehhe, no hard feeling for the modders

I think it is sumthing wrong with the meter also, keep resetting it few times but still showing the same figure. But I did drive home from KL to my hometown aroung 450km, just cost me RM55-RM60

Both ZE912 and XM1 sidewall is soft, comfy ride but sacrifice on cornering. smile.gif

Falken is cheap but you'll suprise the sidewall worn off faster than Michelin XM1..XM1 has a treadwear of 320, so for Falken 912. But the result is XM1 last longer than ZE912..!
And also in the long run, towards end of its lifespan..XM1 rubber still feel soft and comfy. My vote goes to XM1.

ohoo.. its act like auto turbo timer la yer.
i just called foreman at proton SC yesterday.
they said its normal when u stress the engine a bit.
he asked me whether i'm driving at high speed. actually around 100-120kmh.
he remind to check the water level.. but seems okay. water is there full in radiator.
probably this only apply to elegance model only.

heavy traffic. RM60 - 240-270km only doh.gif , rm0.22-0.25 cents per km, didn't realized 1.6l fuel consumption is that good ohh
meanwhile the other 2.0l sedan..rm120 - 440km, rm0.27..

Both ZE912 and XM1 sidewall is soft, comfy ride but sacrifice on cornering.  smile.gif

Falken is cheap but you'll suprise the sidewall worn off faster than Michelin XM1..XM1 has a treadwear of 320, so for Falken 912. But the result is XM1 last longer than ZE912..!
And also in the long run, towards end of its lifespan..XM1 rubber still feel soft and comfy. My vote goes to XM1.

VS won't reduce ur fuel consumption, your driving method does. VS does help smooth your car electrical consumption , like when ur car air cond compressor kick in time, ur power loss is reduce, brighter light


is there anyway to replace the dimister button led colour? hmm.gif

Already clocked 100km liao..

It is NoT a quiet tyre..noise is almost same as RE001, i would expect new tyre quieter ma..but not really. wink.gif Then, here comes the truth of Pilot Sports 3..

Pros -
Steering response is precise, sharp. Road direction when turn in is clear..nice ! So good, i use to zig zag on the road..sorry if i offended any other road user..

Cons -

Retro 90's old fashion tread pattern, the design may not suit everyone taste.. laugh.gif

Haha... not only u said that, I do a lot research & get a lot review about tyre last time (cos intended to change tyre & i am using NCT 5). So yngwie intro ps3 to me & i found out ps3 is really superb grip tyre but noisy is the cons & quite costly at 16" tongue.gif(even noisier than nct 5). I prefer silent tyre, so I had change to Primacy LC due to it silentness but a bit poor on wet grip biggrin.gif

Need help…
Anyone have facing this problem before?
When your car speed at 120km/h around 5 min – 10 min then slow your car speed to 80 km/h – 90km/h (without brake) and maintain it, you can listen a “gi gi gi” sound from in front. Sound is long like from a bearing? Any advice? SC cannot found the problem?

Full tank: 38.33 (RM69) (Caltex RON95) (Full tank can last for 6-7 days)

Mileage = 380.4 KM

1 liter = 10 KM

7.2 Litres /100 KM

My car specifications: PERSONA HL (AUTO) 2009 - IAFM; 16 INCH RIMS

Driving styles: Highway 40%; City 60% (Mostly cruised between 80 KMH - 120 KMH) 2 RPM - 3.5 RPM

Engine oil: Mobil 1 10W-40

Per month usage for fuel: RM 300

P.S. later would like to try on RON97 to see the difference; if get better mileage will switch to RON 97

Hope it helps buddy whistling.gif

so far NGV is the ONLY proven fuel saving...other products are just not giving the accurate outcome that we want..

basically auto for sure will consume more than manual transmission vehicles...thats nature...

For those who want to buy Persona and get more rebate and stuff, you can try to survey those "Proton wakil jualan" rather than those "Proton Edar" shops.

Try your best to bargain things that you wanted... like going to market to bargain... same as here, you can bargain with the SA and try to get as much as you can get. This is a win win solution, you willing to ask and they willing to give. Don't buta buta buy a car without asking anything. Go to as many showroom as possible to ask around the best deal that you can get...

hi there again..

wan to check something..

i have auto elegance base line milleage 2300km.

my problem is,
when i accelerate to overtake fully pedal 60-120kmh and then constant, after that i will smell something burning.
smell like oil engine burning. dunno how to describe.
already sent to SC to check. they said no leaking.

one more thing, the sound of 'geez.. geez.. ' on aircond behind dashboard is normal like SC said to me. its the valve release aircon stuff. dunno what is called.

and there is small sound behind meter panel if u hear it silently 'trrrrrrrr' very slow sound. dunno what it is.. huhuhu.

and lastly, my power window on driver side got a sound 'grut grut grut' when i wind up and down.. haiyoo..

do u guys notice that? u guys have similar symptom?
need to wait 5k service to check all the sound things..

thanx

Lets put it this way. If you are a person who goes to work 9 to 5 & back like me, it should not be a problem. Other wise, you should have opted for something smaller, say a Myvi or Viva which in my opinion are girlie cars. Persona's more of a guys' car. Top speed - 180Kmph one way to heaven for a 50K+ car. Where else can you find a bargain like this. Remember it is a solidly built 1.6 litre car. Not a tin can 1.5 litre Iswara. Don't waste precious time cracking your head doing all those penny saving fuel consumption calculus.

yes.. its comfort enough for me and my family.
huge boot luggage.
average fuel consumption 13km/l
latest pump rm65 .. 36.11l can go maximum for 450km, minimum around 380km
good cruise on hway .. 2.6k rpm on 100kmh if i'm not mistaken.

good choice

hi there again..

wan to check something..

i have auto elegance base line milleage 2300km.

my problem is,
when i accelerate to overtake fully pedal 60-120kmh and then constant, after that i will smell something burning.
smell like oil engine burning. dunno how to describe.
already sent to SC to check. they said no leaking.

one more thing, the sound of 'geez.. geez.. ' on aircond behind dashboard is normal like SC said to me. its the valve release aircon stuff. dunno what is called.

and there is small sound behind meter panel if u hear it silently 'trrrrrrrr' very slow sound. dunno what it is.. huhuhu.

and lastly, my power window on driver side got a sound 'grut grut grut' when i wind up and down.. haiyoo..

do u guys notice that? u guys have similar symptom?
need to wait 5k service to check all the sound things..

thanx

by stock is 6 inch, the door metal panel can only fit in 6 inch size speaker, so in order to fit 6.5" speaker, u need to add in a 6.5" bracket and drill some holes to be exact smile.gif

just replaced my grounding kit wire to 8-gauge US made. Feels sooooo smooth~ no choking at all now when shifting gear, hehehe....

actually, the smell problem i already notified before i bought the car. i went to persona test drive unit and drove near to 150kmh. then i smell something burned. like engine oil.
i thought the test drive unit probably have defect or problem.
but unfortunately, same happen in my new car. i guess its happen to all elegance model.

just wan to check with other elegance user.

have u guys smell anything burn when accelerate the elegance?

so how's trestor performance ? does it reduce a lot of brake powder as well ?

well persona definitely not a fuel saver for sure. but it's a good car nevertheless.

today my friend followed me to lunch in my car. and on the way back from lunch, he's already saying my car is good and also said should have bought persona. after drop him, reach office, he IM me, again said should have bought persona coz he felt my SE really nice. so I asked him what he bought, he said he bought a myvi SE on dec 2009. we then had chatted about our cars for a while in live messenger.
he's already not the first to say my car is nice after being in it blush.gif
i heard before things like got good pickup when i press, then good braking power, cabin quite silent, the SE interior with leather really nice and comfortable, stable at high speed, cruise control function canggih, dashboard cluster meter nice when lid up and etc. those statements are really good testimonies that the car is good flex.gif thumbup.gif

hi all forumers and user of persona... i now had a big headache because many ppl comment that persona is a big eater of petrol like gen2.. I already book the new persona but really scare cant afford to pay petrol because i heard petrol price is gonna increase... anyone here can you tell me how much is full tank for now and a full tank can go how many km?
*
not quite sure about the real fuel consumption, but approximate RM50(RON95) can last about 250-300km on highway.

again if most of the time u will be driving at city and u're looking for a fuel efficient car, then probably perodua viva/myvi or even proton savvy will fit ur criteria. Persona best cruising on highway smile.gif

rear brake shoes may last you up to 100k-150k or more,some 10years still using it....depending on how you brake your car.....dont worry too much on this...as for front brake pads, normally it will last 20-50k...depending on the brake pad brands/type...

Jacky,

Maybe u ordered from wrong SA. FYI, when i booking the car, I went to 2 different Proton Dealer and i told them that who can commit the car within 4 weeks after loan approved, I will take from them.

Accidently, both dealer know that I book at 2 different dealer and the competing to give best service and best offer to me. Both also ready the car within a month after loan approved but I go to the 2nd SA because his package better than 1st dealer.

But I lost RM100 for the booking fees. For me its ok since I get my car on the time because my old wira roadtax and insurance will expired soon.

Now, if you go to any SA , they cannot commit for H-line because the production very slow because the focus more to B-line and M-line.

The loan, you can ask bank to entend the period.

Now, if you go to any SA , they cannot commit for H-line because the production very slow because the focus more to B-line and M-line.

The loan, you can ask bank to entend the period.

My dad taught me this technique, step on the accellerator(a)/clutch(m) for 1 min, release it then immediately start the car. It worked on my Persona once (maybe psychologically i think it worked)

Something to do with the air-fuel ratio hmm.gif

I see. thought you switch to French made.. smile.gif

Pilot Sports 3, my humble opinion as below..
Pros:
Good in Wet! Keng~~ notworthy.gif
Steering is light, turn in is precise and accurate..nice! notworthy.gif
Affordable pricing, for RM250 per piece(195/55/15).
Treadwear 320! Waalao, that means 30-40km should be no problem..

Cons:
Noisy
Outer look damn boring. Sidewall, tread pattern yucks..

Overall:
Highly recommended.

I have come across this problem mentioned here sometime back. Apparently, there is a technique to crank up & switch-off the Persona (I suppose the same goes with the Waja) You have to turn the ignition switch (where you insert the car key) to "ON" & stay there briefly, say about 3 secs. before twisting the key fully until the engine comes to life. Do the reverse when you switch the engine. Opting for a lighter engine oil, 10W 40 instead of the OE standard 20W 50 would make morning starts easier. Sure works for me. I don't know if anyone else have heard about this technique & vouch that it works. Feedbacks are most welcome.

Does anyone out here ever wonder why the name "ELEGANCE" is not found on the body of the Persona. Just like the Saga "ISWARA" Proton keeps repeating these invisible names on their cars. Perhaps they are trying to copy the Merce.(name wise) but can't afford to pay for the badges.

Sometimes these things depends on luck..Like myself, after falling in love with Persona Elegance pics in paultan's blog, straightaway went to mudah.my, do some search and get some SA's contact. Then call them up asking if got ready stock. Once confirmed, go and meet SA in the office (so u know they are for real) and test drive the car..Once confirmed, pay booking fees, arrangement for loan, negotiate discount + free gifts..Once loan approved, pay dpayment and wait for car to be registered. All in one week...I was quite worried kena tipu as Im a girl (even checked with iCare if the company is authorised proton dealer), but SA was professional...

BTW, I got RM500 discount on the car price, 200 tint voucher with sandblast and sunvisor, Smart Tag with 50, steering lock, men watch, full tank fuel...

I face this problem before also. Suspecting is fuel pump issue. Just don't use up the petrol until dry to protect it. If it happens, press the pedal for 5 seconds, and then try ignite again...

which SC you go?

bukit sedang "wakil service"... no choice, the SA said i must go there for my first three service... i'm not comfortable at first, but when i go there and met up with the team of ppl who service my car, they are very friendly and share info on what to change and what not to change, and which part you change will not void warranty. 99% of the mechanic is Chinese and 80% of them is more than 40 years old. not much newbie mechanic... the best part was the engine oil that they use "shell helix HX 7" 10W-40 Synthetic technology motor oil...

Added on June 4, 2010, 11:43 pmjust want to share it with those who got their new car...

1. check you tire pressure. I checked mine when i got the car, all of the tire pressure is more than 40.
2. don't run more than 1k for your first free service, coz you won't get free alignment (i got reminder from my SA. when i look through the service booklet, they did mention this) so, pls go service your car below 1k.

I face this problem before also. Suspecting is fuel pump issue. Just don't use up the petrol until dry to protect it. If it happens, press the pedal for 5 seconds, and then try ignite again...

It is NoT a quiet tyre..noise is almost same as RE001, i would expect new tyre quieter ma..but not really. wink.gif Then, here comes the truth of Pilot Sports 3..

Pros -
Steering response is precise, sharp. Road direction when turn in is clear..nice ! So good, i use to zig zag on the road..sorry if i offended any other road user..

Cons -
Retro 90's old fashion tread pattern, the design may not suit everyone taste.. laugh.gif

Pilot Sports 3, my humble opinion as below..
Pros:
Good in Wet! Keng~~ notworthy.gif
Steering is light, turn in is precise and accurate..nice!  notworthy.gif
Affordable pricing, for RM250 per piece(195/55/15).
Treadwear 320! Waalao, that means 30-40km should be no problem..

Cons:
Noisy
Outer look damn boring. Sidewall, tread pattern yucks..

Overall:
Highly recommended.

thanks for your feedback,
what about dry performance?

my RE001 after installed 2point front strut bar keep on screaming if too hard cornering recently, weird... sweat.gif

PS3 dry performance is about the same despite PS3 turn in is more accurate, precise and sharp. Cool cool2.gif

Remove the strutbar and see, 21k + already..another 9k km, then it is the limit liao..

RE001 rubber compound is getting harder when reaching its end of lifespan, i had to lower air pressure by 1psi or else ride comfort suffer..Nevertheless, no problem for cornering..it still grip very well in Dry due to hard sidewall, coll cool2.gif

notice the anti roll bar from the picture? i took it when i for my 1K service. my friend advise me to change the anti roll bar to a bigger diameter which will make it stronger and stiffer when driving on corners. any ideas anyone?
had even asked the mechanic whether it will void warranty, he said that thing is not under warranty, so can change...

Some goddamn Wira was highbeaming me for like 10km, got a bit itchy and wanted to test the brake.......put 3rd gear to get ready then terus slam on the brake until can hear that Wira screeching sound......then immediately pecut off......I guess he cant catch up cuz he was no longer in my sight

then reached my taman, got 1 couple arguing outside on the road as though its their own.....got itchy again.....hit the throttle and head straight towards them with high beam, then immediately swerve right to avoid them.......for a second i heard the girl scream, after that slowly drive off as though nothing happen laugh.gif

another day with the Persona, i luv this car wub.gif

Proton should have given Brake Assist (BA) as well... ABS+EBD+BA without ESP is a normal combo for new cars but yet Proton don't have BA sigh... it's especially good for emergency braking.

you mean the center arm rest + compartment box? I have seen the original SE leather version being sold before. Not sure was it Mudah or another local car accessories online website. Can remember it's not that expensive.

oh btw, i found out from this Blog that mr adee in Mudah is a person who sells all original R3 parts and accessories. Can check it out HERE

And here's R3 Website. Maybe should put some of these info into the First Page of this Persona thread to ease those who want to find accessories for their car. Just a suggestion though

The R3 MME rim does look nice especially with offset 38

Just done my 10k service as well, gosh, wasted my 5 hours waiting time in the centre, lucky at least there's a jaya-one there to walk around to kill some time.

mine just RM146 included alignment and balancing(RM56). Well i'm using their mach5 mineral though, will replace redline oil this weekend (outside) and replace my mach 5 for others machinery lubricant, wakekeke....

Anyway, just got some clarification, in theoritically, old persona cannot use the elegance side mirror and LED rear lamp like what darkangel mentioned, the wire connector is different, jsut double confirmed with the manager, and for the accessories parts for elegance like boot tray, will not be in stock that soon as the factory just produce the right among parts for the elegance stock, if you want, they will help you to place the order straight from the factory, so need to wait.

What type of lock you bought? The one i'm using is the one you hook it to the under top part of the steering, then you have to turn like flattening roti canai. It will look as soon as the lock is pointing away from you and resting on the dashboard. It's pretty good.

just to let u know our stock battery is dirt reliable compare to most of the aftermarket battery except imported one, stock battery can last us at least 3 years. So probably could be the alternator not giving good charge to the battery, once again biggrin.gif i advise u to install the VS+grounding kit cool2.gif

I am using this... its cheap, damn blardy reliable, hard to break and far far far better any any steering locks out there. Plus, its portable except that it cannot be used in Kancil because of reasons i cannot recall right now (tested).

forgot whts the name of it... bought it years back... It was RM90 back then. Now i believe its RM100 to Rm115.

I love it because it locks the strongest part of a car and some more, the location of the lock and locking mechanism makes it hard for the culprit to cut or break open. definitely cant drive without brakes right? and some more, culprit will think twice of doing so since it is more time consuming to steal the car and time is everything to these bastards.

and plus, its portable and acts as a deadly weapon when threaten on the road! tongue.gif

Timing belt is to be replaced at every 100k intervals. Usual recommendation would be 90k plus. Never had issues.

UNLESS, fake belts were used then it will break far sooner which happened to me once when i was driving my old civic at 180kmh at 4k rpm plus and it snapped on me while its belt was used only about 60k plus. A lot of counterfeit timing belts around be careful of this.

Original will stay on till its recommended replacement at every 100k interval. UNLESS, you are a track guy that red ines the car all the time then different story.

There are 3 things i personally think is possible:-

1. Battery given to you is perhaps an older aging unit.
2. Your car's alternator is not charging back enough.
3. Your battery's estimated life span is over. Usually its about 2 years or more. But heck, some cars like my ex myvi the battery only lasts almost 1 1/2 years.

not to say that is will give good FC... just that when you use better fuel, the engine got more power and you don't need high rpm to get the car move...
mine is 14l / 100km when i took the car. after warm up the engine, i do some "run in" on the engine. driving a few seconds of speed above 4k rpm... and day by day and 10km/h more each day i "run in" my car engine until the max 130km/h for the first 1000km. now my FC reduce to 10.4l / 100km (which i think i still need to "run in" the engine some more).

Well... been seeing a few threads in the garage sale, the price is around rm1400 - 1600 whistling.gif

But dunno la... whether can trust this DLAA brand or not...? Well, using this 2 din gps certainly will looks cooler compared to the conventional stick-to-screen gps, but still the will be an issue of theft too. Whereas those stick-to-screen type of gps, you can bring it or transfer it to any car u drive unsure.gif

maybe u should try to replace it out and see, but u need some real expert to replace the spark plug as campro is using COP type, and also let us know what model is the stock spark plug using as well.

Yes hardly any difference. A bit only. But the big difference is that, these plugs lasts much longer. You are looking at at least 100k mileage (that's what they say).

NGK G-Power (platinum tipped just like iridium for the poor, like me tongue.gif)is pretty good enough for me.

NOT only bare the cost to repair the damn car. Replace a new one for you instead!!! Why repair the car which was damaged quite heavily due to their mechanical fault. You could got further by bringing this case to consumer body.

Yes true. I too seriously think that there's a lot of problems with new Personas (Elegance models). Seems like a lot to do with its 32 bit ecu and on others as well.

Mine too (IAFM version) had one slight major problem which was the IAFM knocking but was replaced and its good till now. 2nd would be my warped front disc brake.

To improve the stock brakes, i replaced the front pads to a much better one eg. Trestor Advantage.

So far, i am happy with my IAFM version Persona. Coming to a year now.

That's why i prefer a car that has been on the market for quite a while. No point rushing to buy a model that just launched... Usually there would be problems uncovered.

I don't know about you, but if they told me that, I would screw that idiot upside down. This is YOUR car. You paid FIFTY THOUSAND for it. Because of a defective part they produced, they risked your LIFE, your CAR, other people's LIVES and other people's CARS. And all they can think about is covering their own backside? Not even a simple sorry? WTF?

But of course, this is assuming it really is a known defect in the car that caused all this.

let's just hope they will give you a reasonable compensation and solve the problem, i'm glad you are rational enough or at least you not straight shooting them about the problem, one in a million rclxms.gif

i been to that HQ before for quoting the respray and knocking, double the price from what i did mine in sec 13 plus the HQ service is not pro at all, the first guy who served me the attitude was like "mau-cari-pasal-kah?" so first bad impression from that HQ, sec13 will be my all time favourite SC but the waiting time is frigging long...

That means not the first time and they aware already.... Haih.. well, try to talk on getting another car on the reason you scared this car might fail again... doesn't hurt to try persuading. Lastly, i think u should write this problem to several newspaper at the least, make people aware, hence it might can save people life perhaps?

metal klunking in front = still ok
misfit iafm = no prob
bad radio reception = can cincai
braking fail = a definitely no-no shakehead.gif

On another note, i drove my sis's saga blm to Genting one time. During the downhill, got many times the brake totally won't work. The car still moves downhill without slowing down even after I fully stepped on it. I have to swerve to the side to avoid the vehicle in front of me during a couple of the speed bumps. Luckily the road was wide enough with not many cars. I swore to never drive a Saga BLM up there again.

Stock Brake pad is for normal driving. Going down hill like genting road u need better brake pad and skill ,( like engine braking rather than always use brake to slow down). I assume u drove the Auto BLM down. (how many times u drove down before this incident happen) ?

I've only driven down genting a few of times only, the previous times using the Nissan X-Trail. I always just let the car roll/cruise down using the lower gears without trying to apply too many brakes. But this incident with Saga BLM happened very early, not long after I started going downhill. I don't think I've applied the brake too many times, but I guess i overestimated the potential of Saga's stock brakes.

Bro different cars works differently and have their own respective limitations / limits. Usually stock brake pads are not sufficient enough for downhill abuse. Trust me man... Been driving soo many cars over soo many years already. And plus, not every stock brake pads are the same. Some are pretty good enough and some are just so so and some are just pure shit.

My best advise is, replace the brake pads to a much better pads eg. performance brake pads and you will for sure notice a hell lots of difference.

For example, i drive a Persona with sucky stock brakes and as reported from many of our buddies in here are the same. I myself am a aggressive styled driver and this for sure, is not enough for me. So since i do not want to modify the stock brakes like what i did to my ex myvi with civic vtec disc rotors and caliper brakes, i just replaced the front stock pads to performance type pads like the Trestor Advantage. Why i chose this pads is simple. It is not too expensive and it works at least 50% much more better than stock pads. Other good pads i have used before are like TRON Ceramic metallic and Bendix Metal King Titanium.

Trust me man, its purely because of the stupid stock overpriced brake pads (cost RM200 plus in SC).

After reading all this drama, I feel the owner of this vehicle should blame himself/herself for what happened. If the brakes are bad on the very first day, why not reject the car till it is fixed for safety sake. Even after 1K Km, the problem still persist, I think it is hell of a dangerous for other road users. Any car with brake problems, be it new or old should have been fixed immediately. I feel this complainant is very incompetent in handling the whole situation. And why this car owner did not get Proton to replace the fuel gauge quickly. This driver's mind has more problems than the car.
