please add me too.....
persona elegance - H-line black

Hey i m driving H-line also... when i got my car ... i have the same problem... told the service center... they fixed it.. i read the service report.... it states.... installed orifice valve and tighten under carriage....
not sure is it the same problem with urs?
btw i got it done in puchong service center.

Ya no more so far


Ya got my first service from puchong service center.... felt people there quite professinal in customer service and they allow me to bring my own engine oil. Very willing to listen to my complain on the various problems. But service is quite slow though.... cos many people

No it isnt.. they moved.. i went to Jalan layang-layang... is no longer there
is at jalan serindit now....if u r coming from ldp... u should pass the apartment before u turn right (jalan layang-layang is before the apartment)

yes i have been there (end of july).. was surprised is closed... called proton i-care for the new address. maybe u can get the exact address from them

really?? wow good tat u mention.... else.... my travel "cost" this raya gonna increase

@110kmph nearly 100% highway.....about 380km (tat's how much it roughly cost me travellling between PG and KL)

Ya.....380km for RM50..... full tank.... i think is RM70++ ... max i tried was RM77 when the light started to blink real fast.

I think according to the manual... when the light start blinking.... we should ahve about 8 litres left ( we have 50 litres tank right in total?). So we can do ourown maths... how many km can we normally drive before the tank go totally empty
yes ... the other day i drove... cari petrol station when already blinking... never check how many km i went.. but the meter definately shows ----.- km left .... scared the hell out of me.... never tried tat anymore.. enuff to know roughly how much max petrol i can pump in ..

hey.... if car no problem ok .... cross abit ok... else..... i was informed by the service center.. things like alignment&balancing... and aircon (not sure to wat extend)....are only covered in the first 1k .... exceed.. they have the rights to charge u if u ask them to repair those. Tat's wat i was told at the Puchong SC.... not sure about those other authorized service center though

ya tat's wat they told me....they admit could be factory problem.. tat's y they will cover for 1st 1k.....should be standard across proton edar sc branch(wanted to get it done in puchong but their fella not around.. they refered me to jln 227 to get it done.. all FOC).. not sure about authorized sc though

I notice something weird about my car...since day 1.sometimes when the aircon compressor kicks in or during gear shift...my speakers will go mute...radio looks ok..but just speaker got no sound for a moment (about 1 to 3 seconds )... I m driving H-Line elegance...

For PE Drivers.....any of you encountered this problem?

Depending on wat model of vios and wat model of persona u r driving..
if .... in extreme case....vios j manual is 1020 kg and persona elegance h-line is 1245 kg... tat is 225kg more weight
and depends on ur how u rev too i guess..... persona highest torque comes at higher rev .. compare to vios... tat could also be the reason y is harder for u to catch up?
i m just guessing .... the possible reason... dont bash me for simply guessing excuses hehe

Haha..... welcome to the club.. i got the bottom of my front bumper scratch (deep scratch i would say) too..the other day..kene the divider...when parking..underestimated the divider height.... sakit hati betul...hahaha
polish wont work.. cos it was too "deep"...the paint came out... a chunk of it

get those small can of autopaint and do some touch up... saw a post somewhere in automotive garage.. selling rm20++ .. carrefour also selling 21.90 ...for 25ml. but.. i got mine from an auto paint shop.. for rm60(500ml) .. hehe bought more just incase need it in the future...25ml seems to little too me..

ya i also wanan know what engine oil u used... i felt the same last time.. but mine was the extreme case.... the poured nearly 5 litres of my shell helix hx7 .... (ya it is a 5 litre pack i bought from carrefour)... i felt very very heavy... there is the slow ....heavy drag everytime wanna accelerate

maybe u can try check the dip stick... how much over it is ? if alot....perhaps u might wanna go back there again ask them to drain out some of it. Mine over alot!!! had to go back the next day asked them to remove it ( no queue this time .. immediately they took my car in...categorized as emergency ....hahaha)

1cm++ ....both after engine cool for a long time and just right after stop engine? maybe u should drain out... if u have the time to go back to the service center
call them and tell them ur problem...(read some website.. it's not good for your engine and fuel consumption if over)
mine .. over nearly 3 or 4 cm ... scary alot.. when i told them , they also got a shock asked me come back..haha
