guys, anyone here DIY installation of sound system? how you slip a wire thru to the door panel ah?

wah use chopstick sumore ah.. hmm.. wait i go experiment this few days..

one more thing. how to put tweeter on dashboard? there is no gap at all at the side to fit the wire in..

Gosh thanks so much everyone for your feedbacks!I got the most helpful ones here compared to some other threads hahah. Well i finally got to test drive both the viva and saga today. Basically, the viva is of course,easier to drive but the seat is EXTREMELY comfortable!I don't know if its adjustable or not but something about the angle makes me have to sit up so straight and..gosh just super uncomfortable hahaha. The interior looks very...plastic-ky and cheap looking(no offense to viva users) and then i tested the door sound cos i read ALOT of people online saying,the door sounds like milo tin when you close it.I now understand what they mean lolll. (the salesman mentioned the Segamat accident also)

I then got to tried the saga..the wheel,gearbox and pedal felt SUPER heavy and stiff. But the salesman said that the one i tried was one of the earliest batch and they've improved on those in the new batches dy. I didnt get to test the new batch,but he said its very light, even too light for him it seems. So,just wanna check,is this true for those of you who have just gotten the car recently? In terms of interior and comfort,Saga definitely wins hands down lol. i LOVE the meter panel btw haha. But the back manual windows and car lock arent so good..

I then asked him, which car would he personally recommend me and he said, it depends on what i need. I prefer the saga more for several reasons such as space,comfort,design,safety,value for money. The main disadvantage is just the fc due to higher cc and the resale value. I plan (for now) to keep the car for at least 5 years. I might sell it,i might keep it(less likely). The salesman said someone just traded in a 2 yr old saga for 30k..so for now,still okay. So i think i kinda know which car im leaning more towards but..just slightly hesitant abit lol. And oh,the saga's engine noise is super loud also >< i found out it was because it uses a big fan where else perodua cars uses small fan. lol.

I read alot of you here commenting abt the door noise?Is it a common issue?I forgot to check earlier during the test drive.

The salesman really likes the Persona though. Full of praises for it hahaha.and apparantly very few customers complains also.but im not taking that into consideration cos i dont need(and dont like) such a big car haha.

sorry cerita grandmother story pula 

Auto normal la, my auto 50k mileage, 16-18cent, those days manage to get 15cent now dono why cannot.

Just out of curiosity, does manual Saga owners feel a significant power loss when the air-con compressor kicks in even if you floor the accelerator?

maybe at least i can change the alarm siren? both horn and alarm sound is the same.. aduiyy

I do not believe engine flushes are something you should encourage. Normally engine flushes are a last resort. Not something you do for fun. E.g. When you have a sludged engine. This is especially true for older vehicles.

Hi there guys, im thinking of upgrading my BLM's sound system, heard that the b-line even though no front speakers, the wiring is there, is that true ?

Many members in this forum complaining about tak tak tak sound that is related to IAFM faulty. Never thought my car will get this problem. I am wrong. Because I thought my IAFM was the newer batch. How to differentiate an old one and the newer batch? My IAFM sticker was yellow coloured.

Wow...I wished that my IAFM could self-recover by itself.

for Saga Blm Manual tranmission user..

photo i borrow online lo.. not my photo..
[attachmentid=1766720]

pls recommend me..

I don think its particular for BLM. those tyre people will say any car problematic so that u change the chamber screw. Its a whooping 50-60 ringgit for a 10 ringgit screw. easy money... 

coolkwc
the cloth ugly meh?

manual bro:) thanx for the info btw

bc0z shes lo0king to use the car for up to 9-10 years before she get a new one:)
so i think better to go for the new one is it?? lower risk to failure

Well, I hope so. The scracth was so deep because it skidded to the ditch for a few meters before I managed to stop it. Scary indeed.

Apparently yes. Not so slippery but the road were wet and curvy road. I didn't recalled turning my steering to the left and it started swerved towards the left causing me to lose control of my car and I slammed to brakes too hard and unable to bring my car to stationary and it skidded towards the ditch for a few meters.   

I had a feeling is my tyres causing it to skidded because it had no grip at all. Using stock Silverstone tyres.

lucky u are ok and ur engine is ok and car still repairable

stock tyre...and i someone told me before..dun brake hard when skidded..try use lower gear instead...

well i got into ditch before..yeah scary...i understand the feeling 

about the rim, i think u can get used stock rim...at wheel shop...u can try at kedai papan,kapar klang

So sorry to hear that. This is my 1st time I ever skidded a car. I won't expect a Saga to skidded as I thought Saga has Lotus handling plus its relatively lower center gravity as compared to cars like Myvi and Viva. But well, I am wrong after this incident. Conclusion, better invest on proper tyres for better gripping in the event there is slippery roads or wet roads. It happen out of the sudden, my car suddenly turned to the left by itself. 

P/S: I was driving at 60km/h to 70km/h at that time.

Just found out that the driver is somebody that I know Name is Martin Poon. He's my girlfriend's friend. Drunk driving after clubbing.

TO EVERYONE.. PLEASE DRIVE SAFE... DO NOT DRIVE TOO FAST PLEASE. YOU MIGHT NOT ONLY BRING HARM TO YOUR OWN LIFE BUT ALSO OTHER USERS ON THE ROAD. lIFE IS PRECIOUS

P/S: R.I.P Martin

Wanna ask a question, if my car's left front wheel hits the ditch for a few meters, after repaired my car the whole cabin vibration is so loud when I put it to D or R. When the air-con compressor kicks in, the whole dashboard and steering wheel is like going to fall off. Does it mean that something is loose or this might be the aftermath after having an accident?

Oh my goodness. Not again. Does our Saga's engine mounting cost a bomb? Does it pose any risk if I don't go for a repair? Now my pocket sudah berlubang besar.
