you can DIY yourself. what i did, slip in a small piece of paper or tissue paper into the steering gaps... done!

yeah, my dashboard also rattling, and found out those noise came from speedometer.. what i did, loosen two screw at the speedometer and rattling is gone

so far, there's another rattling from both front door, but cannot do anything on it, lazy to remove the door cover

dear TS, few people comment about the wrong title issue which should be V17 instead of V16, and still yet not corrected...

got back my car, and here's the result :

send my car at 8.00am, and get back my car at 5.00pm.. service center long queue of car to service


after got back my car, i found that they added a additional fuel hose attached to the power steering oil container
or maybe that black hose already exist before service, any FLX user can confirm that?


and here's my invoice for the repair work


referring to that invoice, it's CONFIRMED proton did recall FLX for item 5 (cvt oil pump) and item 6 (fuel hose)...
while regarding the jerking issue, they commented by 'replace oil pump and clutch adaptation'...

service cost : RM 0.00

conclusion for the work done, my car is smoother and jerk issue almost zero...

for any FLX user who haven't send for recall, can you confirm this (left) black copper pipe is existing or not?

gear knob still remain same tight, no different.. i think they forgotten to fix it..

fake plate number might be...

yeah, something not right with the gear knob... when we shift to 'D', slightly small force pushing it to 'N', but.. before the knob reach the border of 'D/N', the gear recognize it as 'N' already.

TS can put this attachment to the 1st post for reference...
p/s : Ahmad Nazmi? still can see that name even it blur out

i think this affected both FLX MT/CVT cause the additional fuel hose not related to CVT... you can try make a call to Proton i-Care to confirm this...

this issue already discussed many time during last thread v16... the extra 10L is reserved... so you won't able to pump up to 40L...

yeah, the max should around there cause i tried once where i drove extra 60KM once the low fuel indicator blinking and i able to pump in RM60 @ 31.6L

photo quality doesn't matter, as long you gave us the leak. yeah, the new red body is far better and look fierce...

mine is only RM119... engine oil and oil filter...
that washer is shampoo for windscreen, while magnet trap is kinda waste for us, we can reject that product...

confirmed recall, some people informed thru phone, some thru letter, and some doesn't inform...

bigger SC at Kajang..?
maybe you can try Kajang Utama since i always service my car there, 1km from my house only...

btw, for everyone information, Kajang Utama SC do provide ECU resetting and re-tune for all Proton's car except for FLX because FLX need another firmware to detect it...

btw, i not interested with that magnetic thingy, not really helping our car...

Proton Edar Service Ctr Taman Kajang Utama
46 Jalan Seksyen 1/20, Taman Kajang Utama, Kajang, Selangor

Google Map for this coordinate : 2.976604,101.794756

RM50 380KM
light footer... are you driving MT or CVT?
for me, CVT, accelerate from 0 to 90 with <2,300RPM and then maintain speed most of the time

BLM, MT right?

ya, i know V12K driving CVT, but actually i dedicate that question to MR.K-23...

i use to cruise at that speed most of the time and able to get 7.3 L / 100KM,
but now i changing my driving style where cruising at between 90 to 100 kmph...

yeah, agree with that, low RPM doesn't mean save fuel.
every car have the 'optimum/eco' speed where delivery the best performance meanwhile save fuel efficiently
so far i tried few constant speed for my FLX CVT, and every re-fuel, i will change to different constant speed
and realised that the best 'eco' speed is between 90 to 100 kmph...
