yesterday i went to proton edar showroom at kesas highway...
looking for highline persona... n the SA told me i need to wait 2~3 month.. doh.gif
they even dun have any persona highline for display...
high demand of highline persona?????

p/s : but the R3 neo lotus overthere really cun lor... but it just replica.. not the real thing..
n the SA girl said i can buy it but need to wait proton build one... I thought its special.. only 25 built...
oh yeah... they built 25 but only 22 sold... the other 3 they made it as test drive car.... sweat.gif

just got a call from my SA..
my highline elegance already arrive... im doh.gif ... just booking 4 days ago!!!!....
will sign loan tomorrow...
the car not register yet.. my SA ask me to pay full downpayment before registering the car..

its that correct procedure?
anybody can explain the procedure.. like step to buy new car...
this is my first new car for me... I already bought 2nd hand car before and i believe the procedure quite different..

then how to pay to SA...
using cash or another way like bank cheque...
20k to pay cash rally a lot.. afraid somebody will rob me..
if not mistaken bank produce their own cheque that use when we want to pay something with large value..
care to explain?

p/s: really happy when hear good news from SA... drool.gif but then i need wait another week or earlier for car registering.. sweat.gif

guys...

my SA said my car already arrive but not yet register till loan already sign and downpayment have been made..

how long it takes to bring home the car after car loan agreement have been signed?
when we should pay the downpayment?

normally, if car available.. where they park the car?.. inside the showroom?

i need to be sure the car available... if i dun see with my eyes... how i want to know they already have my car... right?

p/s: i buy the car with authorised sales dealer for proton edar.. not a big showroom.. can fit around 3 - 4 car inside..

Elegance model seems a lot problem with the new ECU. not sure is it related or not
*
yeah... i already thinks it related....
many problem happen since they use new one... its like they never do testing before..

my problem only alarm.. the car ok (SA told me as he can drive it to SC)..
so why only alarm problem.. they fail to find the solution.. even already change new one..
already a week the car still not delivered to me.. i do have chassis no and plate no...
but never see the car.. doh.gif

by the way, you can write an email complaint to pronton i-care and remember to cc your mail to this two person

Upate : My right front power window seems like to be ok after change the regulator. so you guys if plan to solve the klok klok sound please remember don't ever let the SC claim the power window motor for you. it's useless, the root cause should be the regulator instead.

thanks for email adress
i cc to them and also NCCC and fomca

will see how fast they take action

just got my Persona HL today...
quite happy although need to face quite annoying obstacle..

compare to my previous 2002 waja

interior...
waja of coz better.. persona feel plasticky... from the dashboard to door...
only the leather side show better but my waja also leather type.. so waja better

sound insulation
persona alot better...dunno if because its new.. but really feel peace inside which waja want us to fighter..

handling...
waja... but persona not far from that

stability...
waja... the steering feel better.. maybe due waja steering have better design than persona

styling...
persona..




p/s : i dunno if many of us claim that persona got a lag due drive by wire.. but i feel its same with my waja which got lag (auto also)... but wira manual.. better

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.

lol.. i do have the eeee sound and its like source from our meter panel....
any problem if we are not change this relay at the moment...
i think want to change it next week when i have free time

p/s : the meter cluster really nice... thumbup.gif

there some icon was not fully function... may be when u press that icon it's log out to launchpad.... however it's still good comparing with papago or lakatoo itself.... anyone face any problem installing garmin please let me know...


Added on July 15, 2010, 9:17 pmI already done my 1k service. Is it true that they will re-tune your engine to standard rpm. I think my car now got no power + pick up at all. Before this i drive 80km/hr (rpm around 2.4k) like drive 20-30 km/hr speed but now rpm turn more than 3k ++ to achieve 80km/hr. Is it related with ecu problem. I try to speed by press quite hard on fuel pedal but rpm sudden go up to 6k-7k. how ever my car still around 30 to 40 km/hr and take around 4 to 6 sec to achieve 80km/hr.. no pick up at all. All this happen after i got my 1k service. any one have exp like me.please help or explain to me.  icon_question.gif
*
i also just complete 1k km service (actual 1.4k)...
there are no retune needed if ur car well perform...
im not sure whats is standard rpm but mine when collect the car.. idle rpm around 600~800 rpm...
and after service still same...

u should send back to SC to recheck... 3k rpm = 115 ~ 120kmh.. thats should be (its same with waja if using 60series tyre)...
ur car is auto?
if possible, pls send trustable SC... which SC u send?
