swirl marks probably came from the car wash where your SA sent to before delivering the car. You can try waxing it.

As for the brakes, I don't understand what you mean by wooden.
Of course I park far far away. If the SA realize I just bought a new Proton, don't think he'll layan me  laugh.gif

Speaking of brakes and Perodua, looks like word about Maivee's stock brakes being rubbish is true. I had to press quite deep before the car slows down. Can't imagine driving at speed and needing to stop in a hurry.

Hmmm, mine works fine, comparable to the old gen Vios in my family. Maybe try using it for a while and see if it improves as the brake pad beds in.
There is only one Proton COE lols. COE = Center of Service Excellence, at Subang Jaya off Kesas highway.

Hi Everyone!
Had yr dinner? Nice?

Juz fyi me had short discussion with an acc shop owner abt different ways of connecting & setting up the circuit for a Key Ring/Hole LED Light.

When me suggested using Proton's Ignition Timer Module to slowly dim the light, me was made aware that it only starts to dim after the car door is closed!

He added there's no need to do that! hmm.gif

A simple circuit controlled by driver's door sensor switch is good enuf. Even if it's on in daytime, current consumption by LEDs is minimal...tongue.gif

So to those of yu who still wld like to hv an LED Keyhole Light...What are yu waiting for??

Like Nike says..."Juz do it!!!"

Let's do it, guys!! thumbup.gif

Yup, a pure hydrogen sys wld eliminate a lot of maintenance probs & hassle. Moreover the gas now needs 2b purchased...unless one can design own hydrogen-making machine & storage facility?
But then the risks go up! sad.gif

And yup, me hv seen those items 4sale. As mentioned b4, that's not all yu need.
There's distilled water, acid, neutraliser for by-products and the cleansing of the electrolytic elements. Altho the stainless steel wire used do work, they need 2b cleaned regularly & replaced after some time. Best wld be 2use platinum wires! But then the cost...will shoot skyhigh!!

Frankly many fuel saving sys do help reduce petrol consumption BUT @wat cost...In terms of $$, time, effort, etc?

Nothing easier & better than juz fill 'er up & go!!! icon_rolleyes.gif

Yup, that's the advantage of addition of timer module. Agreed.
Mayb a simpler solution wld b juz by using a switch @dashboard? Juz on it when need 2use it?
A minor inconvenience but eliminates all those probs?

Simplest mod?
Juz a few bucks...LEDs eg s short LED strip & wiring. Of course, lotsa own sweat.gif & time!!

Throw in a timer module? Add abt RM20? (Price some1 quoted = <RM20) Not sure cos hv not got it yet.

Game?
