Yeah, easier since the car still new and virgin. Mine need to de-mod some parts first to avoid problems when claiming warranty. Anyone can confirmed whether ABS is included in the 5 years warranty?

QUOTE(Vcys86 @ Oct 12 2010, 09:13 AM) hi, regarding the latest safety call back by proton, any gen-2 CPS users did proceed for the clock spring replacement? well, for my case, the technician at proton service centre told me, as my gen-2 is CPS, so it is not affected. Just wondering is it true for all the gen-2 CPS? can anyone help me here please?

Anyone can confirmed whether ABS is included in the 5 years warranty? ABS motor only got 3 years warranty same goes as the abs sensor. For cps model, ABS is more long lasting compare with old version as it already running MK-60 model. Old type is running MK-20.

Yes. It have life span. For abs system, brake fluid is important. Just change your brake fluid by following the millage. ABS pump cannot be service nor change the replay. Cause for campro MK-20 or MK-60, the abs pump relay was build inside together. Not like perdana type which have separate relay. It not cheap to replace as it cost RM6000 for the abs pump. The life span for it really hard to tell. Some no problem and some spoiled after 4 years.
