Went for 10k service at COE today . This is my second time there , I can say I'm satisfied with their services.
7.20am - Reach and parked in the service lot (too early tongue.gif)
7.45am - Receptionist starts to come in and started .
7.55am - My turn  smile.gif (Greeted with a smile from the service adviser)
8am+  - Car went in & I was having breakfast in the cafe .
8.45am - Went back down to the service waiting area , saw my car being check for tire pressure etc ...
9.57am - only got sms car done .

Everything was nice especially the tea lady , super friendly and dedicated in her work  thumbup.gif
Only thing is time wasted on waiting for the receipt/sms (I was not in a rush so let them waste  laugh.gif )
Its understandable as they have lots of cars .
COE best place to service ur car  thumbup.gif  tongue.gif

The CVT that Proton installed in Saga FLX is made by Punch Powertrain.. A German company..  Punch VT2 model to be exact. The same model used in Kias (I assume the Forte).

Is a belgium company... germans are more towards DCT ... (judging from VW)

I tot forte uses the normal 6 speed AT only?

I dont know what happened to the car b4 i collect it, but i definitely didnt involve in any accident or ran over anything ... i notice the problem from the beginning, just that i thought RM20 alignment will do ... no big deal, only now i know im wrong.

But both tyre shops told me without changing chamber nuts, no way they can do the alignment back. The trusted one even tried to do the alignment, but result still same.

Just that im not really sure, really its alignment problem or the steering senget as told by the Proton mechanic.

did u complain when ur car is still below 1k mileage... they are obliged to fix it for u under warantty foc. i had my checked and redone twice :S first.. was alignment is out....and balancing is out... 2nd time... went back again .. cos notice steering is not align properly... both FOC .. just have to sign some form saying this service was rendered to me foc as part of warantty .

I sent my car to SC this morning regarding the sound coming from driver seat front right. After SC inspect my car, they told me that is the power steering problem. need to change rubber at power steering which will cost me RM150++. I told them i have extended warranty for that and they said it is wear n tear thing? should i pay them?

Next week Wed i need bring my car to SC (shah alam) for 1st service.. anyway i feel like my balancing is not ok.. need to check with the SC guy...

Second when i drive with the steering straight, the car will move to right hand side a bit.. emmmm

is your milleage over 1000km ..?
if not yet is FOC.. if already over 1000km i suggest u just have it done at ur trusted tyre shop... could be better and should be cheaper..
I think proton charges rm56 for both balancing and alignment. if i am not mistaken
