yours is MMC or VDO? if MMC the gear original cost RM65 and local RM29/set. If you dont take the magnetic gear then it will be RM20 and ori should be RM39.

If MMC you may reset the stepper motor. There is a brown connector on the firewall and you need to put to ground before start the car. after start edi, you will need to adjust the target idling (adjust with ac off, lights off and make sure fan no run)

You can also confirm the isc gear got ko or not by removing the 2 screws and inspect. Pls dun put normal grease inside as it is incompatible. You may get plastic high temp gear grease from any tamiya shop.

Mine is 4g91... About resetting the step motor, mind to explain more? Don't understand "put on ground before start"... Thx....

Put on ground means short the connection to ground voltage.. not really put that staff on the ground lololol

Mine RM50 can get around 250km++ however...i'm heavy footer...so most time always rev till 7000rpm when pick up.... I pump Petronas.....i feel Petronas give me more mileage compare with Shell..

BTW i'm running on 215 45 R17 rubber & 4 Pot Brake....so is heavier then most Proton...

u finally back ah.... previous thread post until admin lock edi hahahahaha

That's why la ask to explain more coz there are 6 pin inside... Dunno which is which...

That means mine is not at 100% health
Plus while cruising and not stepping hard, the rpm constantly drops from 2500rpm to 1800rpm and gets stuck there and I need to step hard before I get a respond.

Is it normal for proton wira 1.6 to drink fuel like monster? Even though I only maintain 2-2.5k rpm. I have a lot of torque around that range but isn't that going to help acceleration with ease while saving a lot of fuel at the same time? It feels very good for city drive rather than highway but it still consumes fuel just as much as travelling on high ways:(

Rm65 can get at most is 300km. Both high way and city drive consumes just as bad. Even though the engine maintain 2000rpm, no difference also. I'm using esso ron95, shell sluggish but mileage slighty more only.

Wanna pause already, currently not working and have spent too much money on my ride recently... Beh tahan liow...

i tot higher rpm will consume more fuel?

i'm a heavy footer but my rpm very hard to go above 3000. dono is it my car problem or its the nature of this wira model?

unless i change the gear manually L --> 2 --> D den i can go 7000rpm

Previously I drove 1.6XLi (~1996) for 1 month plus. The mileage is bad: 6.2276 KM/L 

i.e. 27L, at current price RM51, can go 260-320 km range only. At that time is 50-50 highway/city.

Light foot also, no heavy RPM >3.5k

hi guys..regarding driveshaft problem earlier...anyone know how much it cost for complete set?...left & right...

got quote from a few spare part shop...price ranging between RM145 to RM150...taiwan made...warranty 1 to 3 months...

i think i want to change ori proton...scare if taiwan made will not last very long...any advise?...

Not full comparison, but just for you to get some idea:

My uncle perdana, previously change to non-ori drive-shaft. After ~2 years, the botak-ball comes out from the socket. Front tyre+rim hit the fender. Car undercarriage scrape the road. Lucky not going fast, just turning a corner within housing area. Called me for backup 

Towed to Proton Edar workshop, mechanic find 2nd hand but original mitsu/proton to replace.

Safe or not, depends on individual preference.

thats exactly the same thing cross my mind when i heard taiwan made...but the spare part shop owner said the proton ori is so expensive...nearly thousands ringgit...dont know he is bluffing or not...

so, if new and ori is out of my reach, maybe i have to find 2nd hand ori at halfcut, right?...

just get quote from proton sc in sg buloh...proton ori driveshaft is rm600 per piece.. ...so damn expensive...
