Finally got my PE, I keep thinking buying the 2011 batch might able to avoid the common problem that previous batch facing. At the end, I getting the 2011 car, but still come with same ‘free gift’. 1. Orifice Valve problem, can hear the knocking sound on uneven road. 2. Metal knocking on rear seat hook 3. The rubber contact noise from front passenger door, not sure is due to tinted or not? Now, do I need to wait during my first service before I sent to Service Center? Any recommend SC to solve above problem at Setapak area? I know there are few, but not sure which one can solve above problem. (Btw, thanks for xandras provide me some sc info.)

QUOTE(samwongjyhhorng @ Mar 27 2011, 03:16 PM) for me is ok lo..hehe..last time my car still totally stock,all d way keep overtake the car..i juz use D drive..until uphill last few corner juz put 2 or 3..keep rev until 5k every gear..hehe..car onli load 2 person.. Added on March 27, 2011, 3:20 pmall the problem tat u mentioned can be solve at sc except front passenger side door noise..the few sc oso cant settle it since i take d car on aug 2010...maybe ur one can settle by sc..hehe..for me,the persona good at handling,stability and powerful compare to same category car..but PE got noise at dashboard,door panel or the noise from rear side..i think tis is common problem facing by mostly persona owner..i ady biasa it..i enjoy the ride and handling of persona..juz open radio more louder then can cover all d noise ady..hehe Thx, samwongjyhhorng. Is that mean all the SC also know how to solve? Cos the CoSE that you all mention is far for me, plus don't know how to go even  . Can I just make a call, then order the part, then make appointment go one time. Or must sent for them to check, let them order the spare part, then go another time. Due to working is very inconvenient to keep apply leave. And I heard Weekend can’t claim any replacement, is that true?

QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Mar 27 2011, 03:57 PM) Normally must sent it to them, then they will check and order parts, then u will have to go there again to replace it lah.. Yeah its tedious.. But if possible make an appointment on saturday for normal service and check.. Let them order the parts, then one of the weekdays go and claim it lah.. ok, noted. Thx for ur info.  Sorry, too long with my old car. Never update myself with all this SC procedure. Just trade in my old Wira 1995 to get this PE.

QUOTE(samwongjyhhorng @ Mar 27 2011, 04:04 PM) so wat is the feel after change PE from wira?feel PE very stable,rite?hehe Well, while test drive my answer is definately YES. cos is test drive, tekan kaw kaw, cornering, everything. No is my own car, just a day, where got test power.  No doubt the handling is superb. But still driving with full tension. Normal-lah, new car not use to the car body estimation, break, mirror angle and everything. Hope getting better soon.

QUOTE(samwongjyhhorng @ Mar 27 2011, 04:14 PM) i'm oso previous wira se owner..sure u will satisfy it compare wit wira..fast cornering is totally different wit my previous wira se..damn stable lo..hehe.. oh, same experience. No wonder will ask me how the feel? In fact, I did study some feedback from here before I book this PE. Other than QC part & some noise, then rest overall is better. New car aleady can spot 2 defect on the paint, SA say can sent to SC to settle. But again got to wait for few more days. Haiz, small dot, just let go. (Is not a scratch or hit by stone, it can tell is during manufacture spray time they didn't QC probably, cos the paint surface still nice, but got very small dot and small dented)

QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Mar 27 2011, 04:53 PM) Damn terrible.. At least our PE the rev still can climb fast.. Neo CPS the engine feel like very heavy.. Mb its due to 16bit ecu too.. hehehe... Our PE low end torque is quite ok, but the body is too heavy thats y u think the engine is not powerful.. If the body is lighter and use Campro IAFM combo with CPS.. Confirm not car below 1.8L can beat us.. Need foot made out of granite..  I also training my right foot now. Press too light like not going, a bit harder then start rev. Still practicing. Weird, according to the Persona's user manual, Compro IAFM average fuel consumption is higher than compro base.

QUOTE(ZenGTMM @ Mar 27 2011, 08:05 PM) When going to collect the car.. Do any inspection in a bright place.. See for any scratches, check ur engine, see if the wiper tank got the indicator and also check ur air filter in good condition or not.. Also do check for the lights and all buttons working properly in the car.. My one also dun have this. When I ask SA, he said every Persona also dun have. Anyway, since is not important, then is ok or try my luck when go for SC. Just wonder, if you manage to spot those minor issue, what should we do? I don't think they will swap a another new car right? Most probably, they will sent to SC service or touch up also right?

Hi Sifu here,
Need you all comment & advice.
I went to Proton SC to ask them to change the Orifice Valve yesterday. The staff test drive confirm the sound, then change for me. The thing is they just change Orifice Valve, instead of whole set that you all mentioned in the main page.(Tube B, Tube A, Hose Return, Rubber Hose, Clip Pressure, Orifice Valve) Is that proper? Can solve the problem?
My driver side power window, it work like normal passenger window have to press and hold, not like the one written in the user manual, should be auto down. Even the button on power window have the word ‘Auto’. How is you all one?
Lastly, the rear seat. After they wrap the tape, I no need to pull the top button directly can pull down the seat. When I press it back, it won’t clip it back. How to make it lock properly or suppose to be is like this?

QUOTE(xandras @ Mar 29 2011, 10:17 AM) For the orifice valve issue, it pretty much depends on ur car. Maybe ur car comes with new set of steering assembly but the noise is still there, then they change the valve for u.. ok. thx. Anyway, will monitor still got sound or not? Everytime go up the condo ramp can easily hear, normal road a bit hard to notice. Thought they want to save cost, so just change the valve for me only.
