QUOTE(saddient @ Jun 3 2011, 11:33 AM) Oh the GPS...I forgot abt that...As for magic glare, a car polishing service, quite expensive RM488 for persona. Hit 5 layers of sealent onto car, can withstand 1.5 to 2 years without polishing (garantee with cert). Car very shiny after EVERY wash. Water beads on cars rather than whole stain, dirt wash off very easily and best of all, swirling damage can be polished off coz got 5 layers of protective sealent before it hit the paint. Extremely useful for dark colored cars. If use normal wax and polish, not so good coz polish makan cat and the wax wash off after a few wash. |

Do we have to go back to proton edar for repairs or just any PIAM workshop will do? Anyone know a good workshop nearby puchong? Who told u hav to wait 2 weeks for police report. U nd to wait 2 weeks is for the insurance company paperwork. The police report u can actually obtain it the very next day. The last time i claim by myself the flow is: - 1. Police report (nxt day) - obtain from police station. Nd to pay some fee. Kenot remember. 2. Pass to workshop, wait for estimator, bla bla bla paperwork. (2 weeks d fastest approval) 3. few days to fix d car and paint. Hope this helps |

Proton Wira also I care like baby, City and Civic same treatment. Why....becoz I cannot afford to keep buying cars. My cars has to last me for years. Probably lah.. But have u ever wondered why the stats are like that? Malaysian roads are infested with Protons, so generally there are more Proton owners who report problems with their cars.. I do agree with u that Proton is still not that good at making engines (severely underpowered), but other than that we can't say much if we chose to buy a Proton. Some of us are left with no choice but to buy a Proton because of the heavy tax imposed on imported cars. If there's a Japanese-made, similar-sized car selling for RM 55-60k in Malaysia, what do u think will happen to the sales figure of Proton/Perodua cars?

Yup. True. Plus if always park under the sun or wat then the paint will wear off even faster. Good for you to keep maintaining the good look for ur car. Wish i can fork out this sum to maintain my car too..
