Through Google Map, however, they haven't updated Rampai Business Park into their maps yet, & the satellite image shows what appears to be an area still partly under construction. But no worries, it's all nice new rows of shop lots already open.

shit i have this problem, dammed

Problem 1: Knocking sound when cornering on uneven surface coming from Front RHS
Causes:  This is due to the power steering fluid delivery piping knocking against the metal pipe and the body underneath it as the uneven road causes it to twitch up and down.
OLD Pipe (left) vs New Pipe (right)
[attachmentid=1911676][attachmentid=1911677]

Solution: Proceed to Proton SC to claim warranty for Power Steering fluid assembly. Claims are FOC, including the power steering fluid.
Parts list they will change for this new power steering assembly.
1)Tube B - PW828913N
2)Tube A - PW828914N
3)Hose Return - PW828915N
4)Rubber Hose - PW820961
5)Clip Pressure - PW820962
6)Orifice Valve - PW895228

what did i missed last night? a new thread has started and i spend my night on the highway, wow, what a terrific night.
yesterday evening, was raining at kl, i was hit by a saga lmst from behind. i swear my mannerism all the while is very good, but i was kinda pissed when he screwed my new car, fortunately, the bumper damage was minor, the fella's lmst's left front suffers substantial damages. (this si how lmst gained the famous nickname, milo tin car brows.gif) at 1st he argues that i shouldnt sudden brake, then i hantam him back if in smooth crusing highway, i sudden brake part of it is my fault, but in jalan duta's highway, jammed like sardin, i brake is not sudden brake! is you when changing lane didnt notice i braked! then i added note, come to your senses, next time you drive car in the front, i hantam your back, then i argue to you to ask you to compensate me, ok? he immediately quiet. obviously he was trying to change lane, and didnt notice that i've stopped while he keep moving. then i added some remarks, if foot brake not enough for you, next time pls pull hand brake, or better, add a 3rd brake. i hantam him this is my new car, you hantam my car, i very beh shiok, and i very pissed, i swallowed the word like your kereta keranda hantam my new car, i might c4 your car.
then he plead me to just compensate me for rm300, no way. i dont think the bumper price is that, i ask for 500, then bargain...===rm400
crap... he said he'll repay me if i send him the repair receipt, no way!
i'm in a hurry, he said he dont have much money, i said fine, my dad will follow you to nearest bank, and i'll wait for you here.

he gave up and grabbed his wallet, hnggg! rm400.
luckily i was pissed enough to raise my voice and got wisdom to turn around the situation. normally i'd be bullied.
*
Wah damn you.. LOL.. Langgar a bit and ur bumper no damage get RM400 angpau ady.. Can change front bumper ady.. haha.. He got Rm400 in his wallet wor.. cun.. I dont carry that much money.. tongue.gif

QUOTE(vcxv @ Jan 14 2011, 07:36 AM)
@zeng [Farking expensive.. for that price u can get Toyo Proxes T1-R 17" tires ady.. For standard performance and budget balance i would recommend Yokohama a-drive or Bridgestone Re001 or Falken Ziex or Toyo Proxes T1-R]
thanks for your recommendation..
im @ melawati area... what are the prices for those? i plan to change all 4 of them. is this normal? sometimes i heard people change 2 first etc
*
Yeah its normal to change all 4.. Those ppl change 2 by 2 is either dont have enuf budget for all 4 or they dont do proper tire rotation.. So their front theirs are totally worned out by the time they change the front 2 and the back 2 tires will still be usable for another 20k+ km..

QUOTE(Janick1437 @ Jan 14 2011, 08:45 AM)
i have the bearing problem too... the Front Left wheel bearing got sound... mine after 1k service only come out the problem.. then 5k service go complain.. then ask me 10k go change.. then i a bit more than 10k go service+change bearing.. after the replacement then that "xx" SC ask me pay for the bearing coz' after 10k cannot claim for wear n tear parts... really WTF... then the good things come>>i ask him why din let me know 1st b4 install, then i ask him put back my worn bearing in... hahaha.. then in the end.. I WIN!!! reallt WTF.. i wonder if cannot claim, y he can get the parts from Proton... really  doh.gif

I tried 4-2-1 before onli the front from hotbits and knn air filter and grounding and air intake system..cant reli feel the diff..Felt like stock better.But the rev can b damm powerful.

I find that the air intake system could be quite useful.Can adjust the rpm idle rate..Normal idle was at 900rpm..But mine was at 1.5k rpm at idle..heghe

Hey guys! I've just ordered my Persona and should be getting it in a week or two. Any tips on breaking the engine nicely?

Go for some hard and heavy run on highway.. Use 3rd gear and rev till max to put load on ur engine to wear ur piston ring in... After each 2-3km run remember to let ur car engine to cool down by leaving it idle but dont turn off the engine.. After 3-4runs then u are done.. But u do need to have an oil change earlier than 1km lah.. I did mine at 900km..

Hi everyone smile.gif

I'm new here and considering getting a Persona (vs a Myvi). I don't know much about cars, but I hope I can get some help here smile.gif

I've heard good as well as bad things, which prob comes with all cars. But one important thing I'd like to know is if the auto gearbox is problematic / unresponsive?

I have a friend who drives a manual Persona and he says it's great, but he warned that Proton is not too developed in the auto dept.

Appreciate any comments. Thanks!
*
Ok since u have heard of the probs associated with both cars i wont go into there..
Comparison between auto Myvi and Persona from personal experience.
Persona Elegance autobox have rather high transmission lost. Persona also tend to favour higher higher revs as due to the engine performing at its best there.. Its clever too, ECU doesnt let u start ur engine if u put in D, nor it will drop gear at high speed if u were to wrongly shift. LIke from D to 3 at around 160kmh.. It will wait for the speed to reduce to an appropriate levelf or the gearbox b4 dropping gear, good for preventing blown gearbox.

Myvi, gear change smoother and faster than persona elegance, I feel its slightly more cleverer as it doesnt tend to drop gear so easily when u try to accelerate faster.. Persona, press press more than half it will change gear for u ady..

Going uphill.. Persona gearbox wont shift into higher gear easily as u go uphill even as the rev is at shifting rev.. Quite good cos u dont lose the momentum if u are travelling at a constant speed.. Myvi gearbox going up the same bridge tend to change up when it reaches the proper rev, but if u try to accelerate it will again drop a gear cos no power ady..

Overall PE better lah, cos myvi changing new model around april.. U buy now later when change model ady u going to regret loh. tongue.gif Depreciate kaw kaw...

To know how good a car is, i recommend u dont test a brand new car but try to go for a car at least 1 year old++ when the quality starts degrading.. Thats when u see the true nature of the car.. How much of road noise, engine noise, NVH degradation etc etc.. As well as maintenance..

since you are collecting problems.. i have another new problem to let u guys know also.. my battery dead after 1 weeks.. my car need to tow all the way to the SC for the claim.. really WTF again.. when claim, some more have to wait 1 day, they said need to test this n that.. WTF again... last last.. give me a new batt also.. then i ask why.. he said so many Proton also like that.. coz' the manufacturing there ordered the batt in bulk.. so, once in a while, a new car get an old battery and that's what happen to my car... aii.. my car really a lot of prob.. but i still like it!!!!

Thats erm cos they dont know how to rotate stock or use FIFO method.. There are no ways to diagnose that problems b4 the car battery die though.. Not considered manufacturing or design defect lah..

Yeah one thing that amazes me is still with all the problems, i do like my persona a lot.. doh.gif

Oh thanks... Do you recommend getting it from authorized Proton Dealer or from other seller? and also what's the price differences?

Getting it from Proton would probably be more expensive lah.. After all its only a spoiler.. I dont there would be much of a quality difference between OEM and aftermarket spoilers.

Wah lao, u're seriously not taking accidents as part & parcel of owning a car, are u? Man, u might be able to ignore bumper damage but without removing the bumper u won't be able to see if there's any damage done to the metal body. Unfixed body bents/damages could lead to degradation of the integrity of the steel when it rusts. Bumper might be negligible, but please dont ignore it when the car body is involved.

What kind of experience do u guys love most when driving our beloved Personas? Like.. What can be done to enhance the driving passion, the environment, the mood in the car... Etc..

For me, personally.. I love to play trance tracks, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Edward Maya, etc etc, while driving on a long dark stretch of road with very little road lights & traffic.. Darn, damn emo sia...  laugh.gif

Went to STY exhaust, 3rd mile Kuching to survey the headers GOT POISONED BIG TIME and ended up getting one. I have two choices. One, was to get the older design which is 4-2-1 also but the way the primaries meet up with the secondaries are in different config than the newer version whereby cylinder 1 and 4 shares the same secondaries and 2 and 3 cylinder shares the same secondaries and the O2 sensor is at the 3rd cylinder reading. The new version is the o2 sensor is located at the bottom end of the secondaries. Config of the new version is cylinder 3 & 4 goes into the secondary, 1 & 2 cylinder goes in the secondary. So meaning, the newer version have better flow out of the engine cylinders.......following me so far?  laugh.gif

So anyways.... summary is.... i got these:
1. 4-2-1 header - RM300
2. Top Cat mid box replacing the original unit. To reduce metallic noise after installing header. - RM180

Results:
Lighter engine feel. More willing to accelerate. A bit of "zingy" noise at the header which is normal. Engine sounds less stressing when accelerating (its quieter actually, less of the engine roar noise.
Pics!!!!!!

The 4-2-1 header. Design is copied from Super Street headers. The other is the midbox from Top Cat.

long story mate, the fella wanna cross to right lane, and suddenly the car in front of me braked, so of course we must brake(my dad was driving that time), and he didnt see that we brake, so ma kiss dao lo. in fact, the incident happened at jalan duta, that day is raining. if emergency brake while crusing high speed, i might be partially responsible(but in truth, none at all, cos i had to brake due to the car in front brake, so the mofo in front is responsible), but the fact is we're stucking in this goddamn famous product of kl, traffic flavoured jam, which our cruising speed would less than 20km/h!

i also very kek sam la, i can sleep well, but in my subconciousness i think of every single possible solution to save her, even fork out rm45, my next day meal money to repair the front bumper, which is just temp solution, and i intend to change the front and rear when the time is right.

speaking of which, i might wanna mod my car lamp to angel eye. if a car metaphored to a lady, isnt a car should have eyes like angel? smile.gif

i've been driving in kl, and i drove around penang yesterday. this is the conclusion i came to.
kl drivers are civilized but retard; pg drivers are uncivilised yet retard!
