QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Feb 20 2011, 02:12 PM) How it looks like after kena raped.. Butt seks somemore.. Sorry about ur accident bro.  [attachmentid=2052340][attachmentid=2052343][attachmentid=2052354] [attachmentid=2052358][attachmentid=2052361][attachmentid=2052362] [attachmentid=2052368][attachmentid=2052337] The other offending fella.. [attachmentid=2052369][attachmentid=2052374][attachmentid=2052376] [attachmentid=2052386] How it happened was in front of me got an Accord lah.. Basket barger wanted to turn into summit but he almost turned into an exit.. So he e-brake lah.. I also was closely following him from the back, but due to persona extremely 'good' brakes i managed to stop in time.. (Damn need to change brake pads and back brakes to disc, tak cukup stopping power in emergency situations).. But then the iswara came from the back, overloaded with 6 ppl somemore came and humped me.. Instantly my bumper(virginity) broke, but pity the other car also lah.. All no seatbelts and airbag.. Bang like that they all kena head damage kaw kaw from the hard dashboard interior..  All go buy number.. kena ady give me 50% to help settle my car loan and modding cost..  My car insurance is first party, the other car is third party. So for my damage can i claim the iswara insurance fully? I want to claim for loss of use of car too. *Nvr been in an accident b4 so dunno all these..   1st - Good move in taking photos of ur own car and the third party's car. It is ultimately very useful in case that there is a dispute. Always practice this. And its better if u take general view showing both cars in the photo. 2nd - If the other party has a third party insurance or first party insurance, if its their fault, their insurance pays for ur damages. since their car is 3rd party insurance, they cannot claim damages for their car which is pretty hard on them actually. but remember, 3rd party pays for the other pay who is not at fault in an accident. 3rd - Claim loss of use. Yes u can. But make sure ur workshop included them in ur insurance claims. Make sure its in. 4th - Kurnia insurance? Well, Kurnia used to sucks 100% to the max. But recently they are improving. Worst insurance to get are ING & Jerneh so far. 5th - Make sure.........MAKE SURE u MONITOR ur car's repair work daily. U may appear damn f***ing annoying to them but i tell you, ALL WORKSHOPS will try their best to maximize profit if you know what i mean. I think that's all i can think of now.

QUOTE(magister @ Feb 21 2011, 09:00 AM) claim from Isware insurance co, ur own insurance should have no effect wat... why they remove the NCD? btw .... i using UniAsia, go their HQ direct renew got 10% discount summo. ask agent renew they earn that 10% iskh iskh Added on February 21, 2011, 9:11 am hmm.. my Persona after update ECU move more smooth @ lower RPM around 2k+ but need step quite a bit for 3k+ for the speed to come along then 4-6k not much a prob pretty much the same its like if press the pedal not enough, will feels not enough power to accelerate @ middle end torque but if press too much my GF complains hahaha i keeps tell her its only sound thats loud. car no power not sure is the ECU or bcoz the engine oil was poured 4 liter inside deng lor CNY not even 3 weeks my car from 20km reach 23km already QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Feb 21 2011, 09:26 AM) I tekan a lot wei.. Up down left right 3side mbox iperm pau all i take.. diuniama nvr come out.. AVOID.......i repeat AVOID INSURANCE AGENTS. None of them are ur friends. None of them are good. All talks no good come out. Some cases, the premiums paid through them are more expensive. Want Insurance? GO DIRECT to avoid regrets. not even close.. I guess accident got somebody die then only number will come out. But the other car is 3rd party insurance wor.. I got no experience in claiming insurance. I scared put at COSE take a few weeks to repair then i die cock lah.. Haiya sorry. Got he joined us for the first TT only.. After that habuk pun tarak..  beer only wor.. bottles only leh, not keg.. zeng: for most cases, yes ur car will be in the workshop at least more than a week for sure. unless u can drive the car still, and have them get ready the parts before u send the car there for repairs. but then it does not look good on the resale of ur car if u drive around like that right.... so, this u have to arrange with them. some workshops have very poor workmanship i tell u. the finishing works are seriously bad that u can tell that the particular car has been in an accident. so, make ur choice of workshop carefully. |

QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Feb 21 2011, 09:41 AM) 1, yeah done that cos i want to prove the damage myself in case of dispute too.. And also get the number incase the car driver decides to escape. if ur boot is just SLIGHTLY damaged, most of the time, the insurance company will not allow for a change. unless its bent badly or dented badly. scratch only?? then its in ur dreams la i tell u. hehehe. 3, yeah i told them i want to claim loss of use.. This morning itself call kurnia to give me full explanation and procedures. Have to call the workshop to see what 3rd party insurance the other fella is using and call them too.. 4, mine is kurnia, the others dunno who. 5, the boot i will make sure they change a new one, as the current one have some scratches on top due to last friday night the autogate bar at those car park only dropped onto my boot.. scratching it lah.. Initially the fella was discussing want to settle with cash.. But i insisted on claiming insurance.. those bumper, number plate, reverse sensor, boot lid and probably tail light replacement will cost him a bomb.. and he wont be able to pay up fully too.. the brake lights cost around RM300+ EACH. bumper forgot how much la i think around Rm300++ also. number plate around say RM14 for the numbers and holder is around say RM50? Reverse sensor quite costly already at least RM100. eh u left out the rear bumper reinforcement beam. there's a big steel beam behind the bumper once the bumper is taken down. that is 100% bent already. Some more u open up ur boot and lift up the floor board panel and see. I am sure there's distortion in there already due to impact. Check ur boot plastic at the bottom there. See got crack or not at the plastic panel holder. Added on February 21, 2011, 9:57 am QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Feb 21 2011, 09:49 AM) Thats what i thought to too.. So i was thinking today i want to get my car out from the workshop and then bring it to COSE.. Order the parts, then pass it to them to replace.. Really a pain lah without a car.. i understand ur feeling man.This post has been edited by jasondotcom: Feb 21 2011, 09:57 AM |

Doomsday diecock time in 1min. zeng: not 100% sure but usually original parts have its own sticker stamping indicating things like the brand like Proton, what part code and what is it etc. Taiwan mari ones, usually the unpainted metal looks pretty like shit compared to ori mari ones. |

QUOTE(saw2001 @ Feb 21 2011, 03:29 PM) Pictures taken from front till behind. Heart pain.. Bought the touch up paint and will try tomorrow. Will it work? its too deep already. sorry man. only way is to send to paintshop to have it touched up. rather than spray the whole door OR related body panels, u have have it "sambung cat" or aka spot spraying. Spot spraying will work fine if and only if ur paintwork is still new / top notch whereby, its not weathered due to rain and shine.  Spot spraying will be the cheaper option. Touch up paint??? u have such a big area / obvious scratch. no point and it will still be obvious. Unless u have light scratches like i have.... then an afternoon of much elbow grease buffing will do. |

QUOTE(samwongjyhhorng @ Feb 22 2011, 02:22 PM) i'm found tat power of campro reali different when u on the aircond..totali power loss much..b4 tis i drove wira,when aircond kick in,wont feel too much like persona..sure,when off aircond of both car,sure the campro more powerful than my previous wira se.. yes its true. the air conditioner compressor takes up a lot of engine power once it is engaged. FYI to others. It is a common misconception that air cond compressors takes up a lot of electrical power when it is engaged. FYI it does not. It is due to the engagement of the compressor itself to be driven on belt powered by the engine accessory drive pulleys and therefore, the heaviness of the engine is felt since the engine needs to drive another accessory. the most electrically demanding accessory i note is mostly from the radiator fan itself as it really zaps a lot of juice from the vehicle's electrical system. second would be the headlights. |

TOTALLY two different machines laaaa.....   Added on February 22, 2011, 4:14 pmchange extractor does make the car much lighter to drive. changing to lighter wheels with less rolling resistance (lower profile tires) also adds to a lighter drive experience. before change extractor, at stand still to full throttle out to the main road the car feels "chocked" like as if its blocked or somethin and in split second regained the torque and picks up. after change extractor, that feeling is non existence by more than 50%. You will definitely feel that the engine is much more "free". This post has been edited by jasondotcom: Feb 22 2011, 04:16 PM |

QUOTE(xandras @ Feb 24 2011, 05:03 PM) Guys, I need to go CoSE tomoro to tune my ECU. Engine light came on, asked the exhaust shop fella he said it's because the O2sensor was relocated to the bottom after nenas. check ur socket. it might be loose like mine. my o2 sensor is also relocated to the bottom. so far, it happened twice. once was because i accidentally jerked the engine too hard causes the socket to come loose. second time, was no idea how it happened cuz after i restart my engine it was ok. been quite a while now no problem. yes there was some issue of check engine light turned on due to relocation of the o2 sensor on some cars. but not too sure if campro engines suffer similar fates if relocated. |

QUOTE(xandras @ Feb 24 2011, 06:03 PM) What socket? U mean the o2 sensor socket to the engine or the 1 attached to the exhaust pipe? mine is 2009 persona with 16 bit ecu. Have u retuned ur ECU yet? Urs is PE or normal persona with 16 bit ECU? Added on February 24, 2011, 6:05 pmWah today rain really very heavy le.. Until my Nautilus masuk air.. Really become Nautilus the ship d.. LoL.. Banjir teruk at Wangsa Maju/Setapak area.. yes its the socket connecting the o2 sensor to the engine (more specifically to the ecu). try unplug and plug it back. no i have yet to retune my ecu. i had it checked with PDT at SC and everything was ok. i just "reset" the ecu by unplugging the battery and it was all ok ever since. Added on February 24, 2011, 6:43 pm QUOTE(xandras @ Feb 24 2011, 06:33 PM) Confirm not my o2sensor socket prob. I just check it jz now. Tight like a virgin =D try plug and unplug it..... Could it be because my battery was briefly disconnected yesterday to install my alarm? another thing to point out is, if the installer did not reinstall it properly eg. contaminate the sensor by his greasy fingers or worst...dropped it... it could get damaged. like i said earlier, some cars may experience o2 sensor "failure" just because it was relocated further down the pipe line. this is due to the fact that the o2 sensor gets heated up slower than usual. BUT AGAIN i would like to stress out that i am not sure if this is the case with campro engines. and if u find anymore information about it....please do share with us here. so that it serves as a guide and more in depth knowledge and i bet many would really appreciate. btw, what headers u installed? pics???
