if yours is non-IAFM model, it's impossible to add in IAFM module, the whole engine design is different.

Hmm.. The underside of my front bumper got scratched today. Misjudged a ramp that was too steep for the Persona's nose. Although it cannot be seen without looking under, sakit hati woo.. I'm fighting the urge to always look at the scratches. sad.gif

Mine 1st day i got the car and wanna masuk parking at home(Entrance to my porch is a slope)..krek..kena d..
The trick is, super duper slow when passing the slope, then won't kena.
And ya, no way to clear the scratch other than polishing it to minimize the scratch and don't look bawah kereta tongue.gif

my persona KO-ed yesterday, only 1.5years old...

died in the middle of the road, luckily didn't get smashed from behind

cant start for 10min

then started and drive 10meter died again

wait 5min, start again, 10meter  died again

wait 5min, start again, 10meter  died again

decided to call tow truck

send to Proton Service Center

till now no news, what happen!

anyone has similar experience?

I Suspect fuelpump or circuit breakdown
*
If fuelpump, u shouldn't be able to start at all.
Most likely it's electronic...might be short circuited so the electronic system cuts off..

timing belt will never emit such sounds. its the accessory belt (that one big piece of belt that drives the water pump, alternator, aircond compressor & power steering.

mine is also starting to chirp! hahaha.... solution is easy. spray some silicone lubricant on it (contact side) OR scrape some candle wax on it. It works every time for me. Driven many cars before.... so this is how i solve it all the time. NEVER EVER USE WD40 as it deteriorates the rubber properties.

No point changing to new belt just because of this. Waste money. Can be solved very easily with my methods.

Silicone lubricant huh?
Mine is quite noisy and annoying now doh.gif
Good info!

hi guys, my battery is weak already. any recommended brand?

Is it true even though the battery is maintenance free, we can still fill battery water in it?
*
AFAIK, maintenance free batteries are usually dry cell which doesn't require battery water.
BTW,
the other day i was driving around 100km/h and hit the emergency break due to sudden jam in front...
car skidded slightly(yes i can feel the back of the car senget a bit), gladly me n my car manage to stop in time and there's no car at the back. sweat.gif

was the road abit wet??.. yes i notice it will skid a lil despite having ABS and EBD ... i heard is the stock tyre .....doesnt perform that well under rain.. mine is CC-1 .. urs?
but no money to change tongue.gif

Nope, under normal non-wet condition.
If wet, i'm pretty sure I'm in big trouble.
BTW, i'm on stock tyre and stock brake pad. Mine is M-line thus no ABS and EBD..
