dont have to recommend, wash your car by yourself when you can do it besides polish. the key to keep your car in its best condition is by whether the owner willing to sacrifice some time to protect it. i'll be meeting a person there end of august, come drop by if you are interested.

OPC as known as Optimum Power Clean its a multi-purpose cleaner that can dilute to suit your needs.

for engine dilute 1:3 interior 1:5 for exterior 1:8

OPC is safe for clear coat too unlike acid degreaser that will leave whitish stain on it. power clean also can use to remove tar, bird poop, dirt, grime, grease and etc. just remember after brush with OPC must rinse quickly with a microfiber cloth. to see know more about OPC please read this link below.

Whats that white bar?  tongue.gif  Red marking is normal, red jelly thing looks like excessive grease applied there, but no worries on that.

Could the rattling sound be coming from the glove box? Leave it open to isolate the sound. If its the glove box, try stick some thin carpet-like padding on the little latch (both side has a catch latch that goes in when u pull open the lever).

Also the dampener should be secured to the left side, glove box should not just fall open but open slowly. Could have not secured, check with SC or we can fix during the tt..

I will check it with the SA this Saturday as I'm meeting this to get the remaining of my free stuff. Tonight i'll check my car and take a pic of the glove compartment....Left side ya?

Yea, but I din't check it as well doh.gif. Should have checked more thoroughly knowing its Proton and din't expect they would screw up on simple things. Oh well, I told my SA about it he say when I'm free I can come and we'll go SC together to fix it.

Lousy QC.

Anyway, I still have to buy Proton coz other marque are a lot more expensive and I don't really fancy Perodua models.

Even though P2 QC is better, but I find their cars to be significantly overpriced, not to mention the lack of discounts tongue.gif

Added on August 4, 2011, 11:33 pmI opened my glove compartment, I see a hole on both the left and right side of the housing which is not connected to anything. I guess that's where the damper is?

nakTT: I don't think it'll make any difference whether you search or not. Ultimately we want to make this to be a homely place, where people can freely share, rant and say out their good or bad things without being hentam balik in the face instantly. People should feel at ease, when they face problem they can find a solution by coming here. brows.gif . Even if you're not an inspira owner currently, feel free to drop in if you heard any news or u have any questions to ask or even just to get info abt the car. The taiko taiko here have been very patient with me even though I'm a car noob sweat.gif .

Said that, I forgot to snap pic of my glove compartment when I left for work! doh.gif

Yes, we are just trying to keep a friendly community here. On and off we get some forumers who drop by and post some nasty remarks, etc.. Its not that we are pro supporters or die hard fans of proton but we just drive their car due to it meet our needs and within our budget range. We have done some homework before deciding to buy another proton car. So when some ppl just drop by and shoot blindly, we will naturally be defensive and shoo off these shallow ppl.  Logical?

snowfish, I think your damper is missing. There should be an plastic absorber like thingy holding the side of the glove box and the dash area. Its like a mini plastic damper u have on your boot. Pls go back to your SA to claim it. He would probably "steal" from another unit in the yard. If you go back to SC, they will quote you that thing and deny warranty claim as they cannot ascertain if you took it out yourself.
*
Yeah Ok, I already inform my SA about it and he's looking for it for me already....dont care where he got it from i just want my damper back sad.gif.

So to all future owners, please check the damper. don't be like me like that, checked the big things but din't check the glove compartment thoroughly.

say....is it worth the hassle to install a light which will turn on whenever i open the glove compartment?

Can anyone snap a pic of their glove compartment with the damper? So that i can bring it to show the SA in case he find anything different...

Hi, I hope that you can get a picture of what you said up there. It would help a lot for those who are looking into buying an Inspira.

I myself is quite critical about proton. That is said after my dad's wira broke down for countless time, I am quite skeptical. But, I do believe in improvement, and I think that Inspira should be better now. As long as the engine and the critical components of the car is not of low quality, then all matters can be fix. My car is giving me problem lately, and I am looking into changing for a new car, Inspira is the one I am looking at right now. The thing is, I can't seem to find a time to test drive it yet....
*
Proton quality has improved by leaps and bounds no doubt about it. However its those small little things that QC team have frequently overlooked....

The wira eh,,,despite the many problems it has...I think its still one of the car I love the most...My current wira is with me for 17 years liao thumbup.gif . Last year spent a fortune on her though, change shafts, bushings, engine mount, Water pump, fuel filter, gearbox, air con system, brakes, timing belt, power windows...etc.... I can buy a 2nd hand wira with the amount i spent sweat.gif

At least there's one thing that you can be sure 99% its dem good, their Air con.... rclxms.gif

Inspira CVT is from Jatco, while Honda develop theirs in-house.

Honda's CVT is generally OK,just that their SC mechs fill up the CVT with ATF instead of CVTF. That was the main trigger of the death of their CVT. Not really the design or manufacturing of Honda's fault.

Whether Inspira's CVT will suffer from problems nobody knows, but Jatco is the forerunner for CVT right now, so we're having one of the best CVT we can get right now in the market.

looks more like its not installed properly in its housing. Either that or the button punya gigi broke.


QUOTE(XCInspire @ Aug 5 2011, 03:48 PM)
Please note Saga FLX CVT is from Punch Powertrain, not Jatco as in Inspira. Please follow the service manual for that CVT unit. Technically it works the same pulley system but oil could be different.
*
Care should be about the same, the most important part is to use the correct type of oil. Naturally both Jatco and Punch are forerunners for CVT right now, the questions is how much efficiency can they get from their CVT.
