if u ask me..after i think abt it
i think its becuz of the connector is loose...it wobbles around and it kinda on and off...making the electronics gone crazy and when it reach a certain level....it will "trip"....same theory as our home electricity "box" there our car is the same..since the connector woobles as we drives...it kept on and off...making it "trip"/total shut down |

i think its related to dbw when connector of the batery is loose, thats why its die. On idling, even swap battery, it can survive for a while until u shift on gear, n press the gas pedal. Ecu, tcu n dbw need enough electricity to run properly,or it goes nut causing the engine to stall. Same case if ur batery dont supply sufficient energy, weak battery,but not kong one lah, U still can hear the horn, signal,even using alarm, but cannot start. Just my take only.

It is not Proton problem entirely...it is the SA "tidak apa" attitude happen also when my fren bring me together to take his new car (saga fl) ... before sign the agreement while checking i find out this problem too... lucky because i like to check everything.. if other people maybe They purposely loose the connector so that the battery will not discharge when in store, but they forget to tighten it back when handling to customer |

QUOTE(vinorgouki @ Apr 9 2012, 10:48 AM) last night driving back to home at average 80kmh. suddenly 'pong' front left tyre puncture. i think i'm the 1st EBP owner tyre puncture, lol. update: jz back from the tyre shop. well, tyre hit big nail. lol.after i change the spare tyre (its really hard to jet up the car and the spare tyre is heavy to get out), i go petrol station check the others tyre air pressure, theres still have 32-34 psi left. i check the door side stated there jz only need 31 psi. isit 31 psi really enough for a heavy car? then i jz pump all my tyre to 37 psi. i will send my punctured tyre to trye shop later today. ask them to check for it and will update back here. the worker said 31 psi is standard even 28-29 psi also can. if want pump more, 35 psi is sufficient. and he said why malaysia cars using indonesia tyre instead of malaysia made tyre? haha... QUOTE(WhitE LighteR @ Apr 9 2012, 07:08 PM) can u go and test drive the car first before sign? can, i drive the car back home. next day baru sign the release note and send back to sa.This post has been edited by vinorgouki: Apr 10 2012, 10:02 AM |

hi,
I new owner of the CFE EB. only clock 700kms so far. Compared with Alza, i feel that the engine and CVT noises are much significantly higher than Alza, but Alza road noises penetrated into the cabin more. During pickup or slow-down (decelerating), the engine and CVT noises are disturbing. Curious if anyone know any DIY methods to kill off these noises? |
