QUOTE(MR_alien @ Jul 19 2011, 04:44 PM) hmmm...thn why is they still advertised 5 years warranty? Proton might hv learnt 3+2yrs TOO LONG! In terms of biznes...claims cutting alot in2 profits? isn't it a permanent thing??...weird but 3 years is more than enough Yup, in general, 3 yrs long enuf. Old Sagas b4 BLMs only 1yr warranty & buyers also accepted.  More of a trend in motoring world...  |

QUOTE(zenox0123 @ Jul 20 2011, 11:34 AM) Should be Yup, claims are alwaz a hassle...result of many fraudulent claimants!! So every claim is viewed with suspicion...  I think there is no way we could cause the bubble.It should be their fault for not properly tint it. I've detected a few tiny bubbles here & there but ATM nothing serious enuf 2warrant a claim, I think! Hope not expand & become larger... |

QUOTE(zenox0123 @ Jul 21 2011, 02:48 PM) Which is totally cannot be trusted at all. Yup, the LOWEST I've ever got for my 1.3 FL Auto is 9.04L/100Km !!6liter/100KM under 90KMph. Honda Insight just managed to get 5liter/100Km. BLM 6liters? So far I never achieve that 6liters for 100Km before. Realistic maybe 8.5-9.5liter for 100Km However, kinda feel it's not too bad considering the fact that it's like "a small horse pulling a bigger cart than it should b made to pull..."  ps. The highest FC of 3 fillings was 10.15L/100Km. So...? Added on July 21, 2011, 3:52 pmpps. Sorry... Out of 4 (not 3) fillings... This post has been edited by zeone: Jul 21 2011, 03:52 PM |

QUOTE(funnyface @ Jul 25 2011, 07:20 AM) Suddenly got a feeling---> Life is abt Choices... Perodua is like Apple, create very few products with good looking and sell for premium price. Proton is like Andriod, create tons of products with great value but always bugged with issues. IFag -> Proton basher DriodFag -> Perodua basher  AND... "One man's meat is another man's poison!" |

QUOTE(ericmaxman @ Jul 26 2011, 12:16 PM) My shots of the FLX Tks 4sharing pics!           2 questions: 1. Wat is the "Shift Lock Release" button on left of gearshift for? Assume it's to lock/release gearshift? Anti-theft or ? If electrically operated, wat happens if someone (eg a kid?) accidentally presses it while car is being driven? 2. Kenot make out where or wat's being shown in last bottom pic... Sorry... TQ agin 4sharing... Added on July 26, 2011, 1:10 pm@zenox0123: Re rusty drive shaft, yu can "sandpaper" off the rust (juz surface rust...actually no danger) and then apply anti-rust coating b4 painting it. Drive shafts in later BLM/FLs are oledi painted. This post has been edited by zeone: Jul 26 2011, 01:10 PM |

QUOTE(zenox0123 @ Jul 26 2011, 03:10 PM) What I mean is the shaft that you actually can see when you bend down. same level as accelerate, brake and shift pedal. Tried to upload a picture later on tonight if possible. Black...Pink...not matter really...haha! No one looks there... Thanks If "there" is INSIDE the car cabin, near pedals area...! Fyi I chk my FL earlier and realised yu cld not hv meant the Drive Shaft. Too far forward of aircon water pipe outlet! Thought mayb yu meant Power Steering Shaft...? Now don't think it's that also... Will chk later... |
