hmm..not sure how hot is hotter
but it is normal to be hot
and if u open it long enough or stay stationary ...it should be hotter than your car moving
and somemore FL and FLX's headlamp comes in smoked...which mean black inside
so i think it should be hotter

any nice spoiler and skirting available for FL/FLX out there? how bout pricing?

So this is how Proton treat their loyal customer?

Yar lor...engine oil leaking is serious problem......if oil level falls below minimum level, then you need to tow your car already or risk spoiling your engine....

yesterday whole night playing Call Of Duty.

Our bulbs are halogen lah, that's why it is hot.

People who has issues with their car tend to make more noise than people with no issues with their car.

Maybe car battery kong already? but new car wor

Leaking not too serius, SC ppl also ask me topup if oil level drop... i went to sc at jalan ipoh, and kesas b4 raya, after raya, done my 1k service at bidor.. sc ppl at bidor also ask me to topup and head to kesas for next service and get rid of the problem..

Do PDT Tuning at SC.

Maybe tuning got problem.

Spark plug, fuel pump, starter, battery all ok?

An Update on latest DIY :

Good News is : Got my ordered set of Denso Iridium Spark Plugs earlier sent by Bro Drex!

Then me removed the 4 small bolts/screws holding down the Engine Cover. Cld see the row of 4 COP & their respective power supply cables & connectors.
One more but long bolt holding the first COP was removed & the COP was pulled off to expose the Spark Plug.

Now the BAD News: The spark plug is deep deep down a rather long cylindrical tube!! Not reachable by the Spark Plug socket that me got...
Had to "surrender" on this DIY project...

Really caught UNprepared cos had nvr faced such a deeply embedded spark plug...

So...unless me go buy slim type spark plug socket wrench, it looks like gotta do the changeover to the new Iridium plugs when send for nxt service (5k Km one almost due) @my local SC.

Be careful, guys. WD40 will eat away the paintwork. I think best to dab a bit of Ronsonol (lighter fluid) onto a cloth and rub away the glue. Try not to pour it onto the paintwork.


Today I drove all over PJ SS2, S16, 17 and Sri Hartamas, only saw 1 FLX. It's not so common yet.


I better go check mine, too.

I think maybe it's because the FLX headlamp's glass surface area is big, hence easier to feel the heat? Just my theory. Anyway, all bulbs give off heat. Except for LEDs with less heat.

hey all...

planning want to install :

1. a fog lamp since my standard FL doesn't come with it...search at mudah.my http://www.mudah.my/Saga+fl+fog+lamp-11049172.htm ..Not sure how much it is the Proton's original fog lamp.. Surely that (accessories shop item ) won't have a good quality right?

2. a turbo timer to keep my engine idle once i stop from a long distance travel...i have read previous thread about this turbo timer ..got a friend sell (new) turbo timer cost around RM68..He said it's not a really ORI (brand APEX like a small long pencil style). So, any advice about it?

3. Proton's R3 light weight sport rims. Never had info about those rims...Any info on pro's and con's? heard that rims cost around RM2k++... looks pretty cool since it looks like a Nissan R35 sport rims...

Don't u guys think that Saga FL's suspension (with Lotus Ride Handling) pretty good at cornering? Even a Myvi tackle corners macam mau terbalik but still those Myvian dared to take a corner with speedy ....So,i think no need to change unless if want to lower it down or just change spring or something ..!?

During raining time ( especially heavy rains) i noticed my rear mirror having a poor visibility. Normal kaa tu? thought i want to install a rear wiper ....keh keh keh

any info on Saga BLM or FL or FLX automatic flip side mirror like a 1.5 honda city has?

1. get ori.
2. turbo timer is stupid, waste of petrol and time. just practice engine slow down after long ride.
3. r3 rims are lighted weight? i tot they mentioned sport rims, not lighted weight rims.

bro, suspension is suspension; handling is handling.lain wei.lotus handling about the steering nia if im not wrong. the suspension still with APM what. rear window just use RainX la. flip mirrors i duno.

1. ok...take note that...
2. keh keh keh..
3. opppss....it called Performance wheel...sorry
4. thought that Lotus handling ada kena mengena dengan suspension ...so,a good suspension MAYBE resulting a good handling..? if u say so, maybe true laa ; suspension is suspension,handling is handling...RainX? where can i get that Rainx?

changing spark plug not recommended to DIY
we dn't have the proper tools to do it
i saw the turning the spark plug and use some magnetic long thing to suck it up
not so easy

1. better get the original part from proton
2. i agree with SiuYi, waste of petrol
3. u can refer to this website, http://www.proton.com/Motorsports/R3-Accessories.aspx#Saga

about the suspension, i can feel that more stiffer than persona's, but persona able to get better cornering for me...
i was thinking to lower down the suspension to reduce air force under the car

my flx also facing this problem, during rain, difficult to see rear window, maybe due to the aero dynamic design...

and about the flip side mirror, i was looking forward to install that too, but couldn't find any yet...

http://www.mudah.my/Proton+Saga+FLX+CVT-11474584.htm
somebody post it come with FREE SERVICE UP TO 2 YEARS

He dint say specifically for Saga FLX, only "MALAYSIA DAY OFFER FOR NEW PROTON CARS!!!"

Those 2 years free service normally for low volume cars like Inspira.

1. how much it will cost for the Fog lamp from Proton?
2.hurm...maybe so,cause here in this forum very particular with FC...but,hey it's a good advise ...
3. yeap....went through the web....understood...

yea,thought want to do the same thing also yo lower down the suspension...

i see....maybe need to install that RainX then...

yea,keep tracking that automatic flip side mirror....huhuuh....

i dn't think is a waste of petrol for the turbo timer
it's just waste of money
when you're abt to off the engine..make sure your radiator is not ON
if not when u wanna start it....u'll need to crank exactly 3 times be4 the engine is on
and that waste petrol as well

that's happened to me... huuu...
