Today a dodgy looking man in Proton uniform approached me when I parked my car at my housing area (USJ Subang) and the following conversation took place:

Dodgy Proton Man: Does this vehicle belongs to you?

Me: Yes. May I know why?

Dodgy Proton Man: Is this a new car?

Me: err *slightly smile to acknowledge the statement*

Dodgy Proton Man: This car is very easy to open & stolen... have you installed the metal thinggy at the doors?

Me: Owh those metal stuff... yeah I read about it (realizing he is some sort of salesman now..)

Dodgy Proton Man: Would you like to fix it? You could pay me RM50 1st and pay the remaining balance by tomorrow or when you have gotten ur salary.

Me: Err no thanks.. yeah I know how vulranable our local cars are... dont worry about it, I'll get that fix soon

Dodgy Proton Man: Its very cheap... theres a guy around your area who just fixed it (shows me the receipt). You should fix it too... can pay me later, now i fix for you

Me: No thanks.. dont worry I understand... thank you

Dodgy Proton Man: *smiles and walks into a car parked opposite direction which i didnt notice who has another driver who didnt wear any proton uniform.. look like some 3rd party mechanic/installer.

So anyone encounter this before? Closest scenario I found was at BLM forum where a salesman claiming from Proton selling some alarm thinggy. Is this common? LOL  blink.gif

Hi all, my car is unable to start now. Drove home back no problem yesterday night.

Saga BLM AT

When I try to start it 1st time just now it started but it was shaking like MT car not enough fuel engine almost die, so I turn off and start again same case so I press a bit fuel then it died. Then can't start anymore, long dragging starter sound. Any ideas? doh.gif

you better start praying its the battery prob and not ECU tuning got prob. Check fuel line, fuel pump, spark plug, fuel rail etc all okay or not. if the car managed to start, it may not be battery. could be a dirty throttle body, or maybe even water/contaminations in your fuel system. my battery 2 years plus, still working fine.

Hi all, i need a favour from all FLX 1.3 drivers here.
Is there anyone who has white lights instead of orange for the meter combi backlight? I noticed my friend's FLX came in white instead of orange. Also, the shift panel on the gear knob has lights too. Can any FLX driver confirm? Thanks!
*
FLX - White for wordings, orange for petrol gauge, temp gauge

FL/BLM - Orange all

The Saga's CVT cannot support up to 200nm of torque.

Its a different model in the Exora.

Hey Guys, im new here and I've been a silent reader for almost a month now. I've recently gotten my Saga FLX (Manual) White not long ago. I have a few questions to ask all the Sifus here if you dont mind.

1st. What is the usual millage u get from a full tank with a manual flx? Mine clocked in at about 360. Is this normal?

2nd. I have a budget of about rm800-900 and im looking into some basic mods. Air filters? Strut bars? Body Kits? Which one should I go for first?

3rd. Will changing the air filter void my warranty?

4th. Lastly, im looking to actually tinting my back lights darker in order to make it look like smoke lights mainly cuz there's no smoke lights for flx yet. Will it be ok? Or its just too ridiculous?  biggrin.gif
Hoping for replies from everyone here. Really appreciate it.
*
1. Pretty good for a new car. You can expect 400km in a tank one the engine exceeds 15,000km

2. What fancies you? Speed? Handling? Looks? If speed, you may want to change you air filter and have the whole exhaust system redone. Extractor, mid box, bullet, muffler etc. If handling, perhaps you may want to look at performance absorbers, but please be forewarned of imitations and cheap replicas. As for looks, you may consider getting a full set of bodykit or rims. Your choice.

3.Depends, if you change to the "drop in" type, you can easily replace it with the stock paper air filter when sending your car for servicing. If you are planning on the "open pod" type, it would void your warranty, but performance wise brows.gif

3. Tinting your rear lights? Ask V12K, he has done his, and looks good brows.gif

Thanks ericmaxman,

I fancy pretty much everything lol I just dont know where to start first since im new in this =/

Well, if I go for a full bodykit made out of PU then it would probably make my car feel heavier wouldn't it? any way to counter this? Saw this one seller who sells bodykit for 799. Apparently its a year end promotion.

How much would a drop in air filter cost? and a whole set of exhaust? haha tight budget =/
*
what rocks your boat? do you drive fast? hehe. for myself, i'd change my whole exhaust system.

as for bodykit, bro SiuYi would be a good guide..hehe

the drop in airfilter, would range between RM99 to RM300. jasma RM99, works engineering RM120-150, K&N RM280-300

Dont forget, most US vehicles are FR.

This only makes sense if your car is REAR WHEEL DRIVE.

And besides, how hard you push to justify the fact that you'll corner until the rear slides out? doh.gif

The only time when my rear slide out when I was at Bukit Putus.
