My 20k was rm39x you can refer here. http://www.proton-edar.com.my/icare/IAFM_1.3_M_SAGA.pdf - this is for manual though
Take outside i think around rm250 - rm300.

Hi all

anyone could advise what we need/compulsory to change for 20k major service...?
btw, mine is saga blm auto..
if ask SC guys, for them, everything need to change lor...

1.engine oil + oil filter + gasket
2.coolant
3.gear oil
4.brake fluid
5.spark plug
6.air filter

for brake fluid and coolant is it compulsory to change or just re-add or change when 40k service...?
i saw from proton after sales website brochure stated there for 20k major service need to spend RM600..fuhhh...
is it anything that stated in brochure need to change...?
so i need advise from you all regarding this question espc who already had done 20k service.

thanks
*
You bring to SC be ready to fork out around rm400 la. haha somehow they will change everything stated but the one in glenmarie Proton Edar good la. they change accordingly that's why mine was rm39x instead of rm4xx

holy.....walau....i really didn't expect this much le...@@

Haha service in proton centre is like that lor. even the 15-50w oil is rm30 more expensive than outside

QUOTE(MR_alien @ Dec 8 2010, 03:20 PM)
yes....shell HX-7 10w-40


Added on December 8, 2010, 3:26 pm
for me....semi syn is good enough....never tried full syn be4 cuz too expensive
but will try next time
BTW..on my car....i prefer shell over petronas
very big different for me
i tested many times
petronas....around after 4.5K....the engine already starting to become very noisy......giving u notice that "it's time to service"
but after i switched to the shell HX-7....hit 7k ...the engine still very smooth....no "notice for service"
i usually used until 8k+ only i do service...can go over that but i dn't want to do it

kidmad,
what do u mean by "they change accordingly that's why mine was rm39x instead of rm4xx", what they changed?
i know,if go SC everything need to change, that's why asking here what actually most recomended/compulsory to change. haha.. but if go outside, warranty will void..
http://www.proton-edar.com.my/icare/IAFM_1.3_A_SAGA.pdf

but i planned to reduce the cost by change for necessary only coz i saw in service book, no need to change brake fluid and coolant during 20k service but in after sales brochure all need to change...

thanks for reply...
*
Bro to be honest it's really depending on the Service Centre. Like for my case, the service centre say this few item quite new. like eg. air filter which is about 30 bucks they say can still use until next service, then they did not change for me. But again not much difference la at the end. Ya mine on my 50km i already bring outside to service. sad.gif i lost the warranty already but it's ok la. it's not so easy to book appointment with the SC afterall.

Yup.. he even call the office infront of me to ask the people in his office to block the car I wanted.
It only takes 1 week for my loan to approve and then he call me back and say no more stock
and ask me if I want to buy the M-line A/T or SE

so I say, I'll get back to him on that. Still thinking of what to do now. sad.gif
*
Consider this : http://www.proton-edar.com.my/persona-spec-1.aspx!!! squeeezeee him for 5k discount or so. You ask your sales rep is there any other year 2010 car. They will have 5 - 7k discount one. Go for them. If dont have just ask back for your deposit money coz he can't get what you want. haha

Do on wheel balancing will solve your problem.


Added on December 12, 2010, 12:11 pmRead a lot post & most of BLM owner very care about warranty void. Did BLM have that much problem? I never been to Proton service since its slow & expansive.

Anyone here service outside?
*

Hahahahaha..... Did a few test.... there was once I drove till it went dry.... just to try how far can I go after warning light came up tongue.gif
On wheel balancing will settle the gegar gegar thing.... no prob up to 170++km/h. btw bro, u install front rear strut? what about rear arb?

i still go service every 5k....just that engine oil change every 10 nia....
serious? would like to try how much can i squeeze @ 90km/h LOL!
*
I've done only the front one, the back one have not done i dont think ill be planning to do it for the anti roller bar. Well i've given up the Proton SC so for the service schedule time i follow the workshop mechanic recommendation. 7k the oil already damn black i think shouldn't risk going for 10k leh. Previously use 10-40w shell now went back to 15-50w penzoil. Cheaper by 30 bucks and i cant feel the difference after all.

You can try that. I did so many times before, i only manage to get what the spec stated, minimum 6L/100km @ 90km/h. That time is 1000km mileage car, so i drove from JB to Ipoh at highway @ 90km/h max. ohmy.gif Now i normally drive no more than 3.4k rpm @ 105km/h. what i get is slightly higher FC 6.1-6.3L/100km.
*
Walao that's damn good FC you have there. 90km/h 30l for 500km/h dat's damn good leh.

Yup, you are right, JB to Ipoh total is 550km and without refilling along the route, 90% @ 105km/h, another 10% is 105-120km/h. Only can pump in 33.XL when arrive Ipoh. laugh.gif

Trust me, the FC for this car is correct as stated @ specification, only if u willing to drive <110km/h at highway, but i don't think alot of u doing this. What i read is at least 140km/h. doh.gif
*
Hurmm maybe i should try 100km/h from tomorrow onwards. i always drive on 120km/h. Rev 99 and once reach 120km/h i maintain. haha

QUOTE(sonicscourge @ Dec 12 2010, 08:58 PM)
Well, am planning on the front strut and rear arb as well.....how about autofoam? am using the wtf helix 5w-40....proton sc mah.... sleep.gif
yeah, did ipoh-kuantan 5++ km (via btg kali) around 100-110 except for btg kali to genting sempah where i did 2-3 gear shifting a lot....reach kuantan still have 2 bars and did town driving for around 80-100 before lights come on....
*
i think front should be good enough rear is pretty useless. Nah i think for our BLM even with autofoam it would not help much compared my girlfriends VIOS ours is like ROARING! Hehe okie i shall try maintain 100km/h

Owh! just some update after installing the open pod, well performance wise can really see the pickup and engine does not roar that much anymore, but after 3 tank of petrol, i can pretty confirm 320km standard had drop to 290 - 300km per tank. sad.gif

i might div re-install the original air intake system and install Turbo Air Booster from our forumer here instead.

*P/S: anyone interested in the open pod set? tongue.gif

Now more air is easy to reach combustion chamber, of course ECU will give more fuel to mix with, thats why FC go down. Correct me if i'm wrong. tongue.gif

Open port not noisy ka? I read alot of them said the air sucking sound is damn noisy...
*
During 1st 2nd and 3rd gear you can hear the sucking sound. Sounds syiok. But noisy? Come on! nothing beats our Engine noise! hahahaha. Can't even hear the sucking sound when im crusing at 120km/h. But it's true it gives me more power than before. Can easily rev up and overtake now.

QUOTE(koh_424 @ Dec 16 2010, 08:35 AM)
ya, for open pod will sure hear a loud noise of the air sucking sound. last time i did once in my Myvi, but cannot tahan. coz when speed constantly then sound is very loud. but it is very nice when u pick up  tongue.gif
*
Myvi i think you will hear the sound of it cause engine more silent ma but for Saga BLM hahaha! the engine noise cover up everything already.

Agree with u bro. Our Saga engine when high rev it, it will roar louder then the Myvi engine. But when in high speed is more fun to go compare to Myvi.  brows.gif

Sound is syok. Easy to rev is more important  tongue.gif . Mayb can try drop in performance air filter. Not bad also ma.
*
Ya plan to install back the original intake and use a drop in for more fuel efficiency, but i am afraid that i will not suka the old pick up speed. Now the car is so much responsive after having the open pod installed. Also, crusing at 120km/h on highway is less noisy compared to the stock intake! That's for sure. Last time my car at 120km/h the car tend to choke. Thus ill go 120km/h to 110km/h at times. Now it's all about 120km/h to 140km/h.
