Hi everyone, my brother has a Saga Aeroback and had an accident last night. The rear axle has been damaged and needs to be replaced. Anybody knows where to find one? Chop shops might have them I think? We're in the Subang area.

hmm sis looking for an auto, else we could get to dealing it right away 

i did change a new axle last year. To make it clear, it is not a recon one and it is not an original Proton also. i bought it from one of the workshop at pandan indah and it costs me rm580 + labour in Sept 2011.

haha. LMSS only has 1 version which is the manual version unless the gearbox has been changed to auto. Besides, i believe the FC for a 1.3 auto iswara will be 

U can advise her to get used to manual and then she is able to drive any cars dy.

yes they last longer than rubber, synthetic based after all

if your sound is more apparent during turning, then most likely it is the drive shaft/cv joint.
considering the sound is also present (since you didn't say no sound, only higher when turning) during straights, i'd recommend replacing the entire drive shaft for both sides, expensive, however less headaches that way.

well im not too keen on bendix fronts considering the materials used. my current rapid stop is headache as it is in regards to brake dust haha.

best if you can identify where the sound is actually coming from instead of troubleshooting blindly
if you're looking for kent then you can explain to him and he can help you troubleshoot.

thats far...

how much is replacing whole driveshaft lol.. but replacing the axle and changing the axle seems cost a lot though.

is the rapid stop good? i saw plenty of positive review about it too. used to have dilemma on getting the bendix or RS

front don't care at the moment since i'm also on PU bushings, dunno what brand though but it's still holding up well so that's that.
it's the rear axles that i'm not sure how the stock rubber (or maybe they are PU? no idea never really ask/inspect lol)

importing around january since the detailing stuff (eg: meguiar's) locally are overpriced to hell lol.
if just wash (not wash and wax, those are better once you've done a complete detailing session that includes proper claying/polishing and waxing lol) i can recommend turtlewax f21 car wash. very lubricating and does a pretty good job at washing off dirt. it doesn't cost an arm/leg too at ~rm25-30ish per large bottle

Hi guys,

I own a  proton saga/iswara aeroback
recently near my housing area got banjir

few days laterI had braking problem
it keep making sound and the brake not quite grip

it is possible that water had goes into the brake system?


how much roughly the cost to replace the brake fluid or repair the problem?

thank you 

*UPDATE.

I went to workshop.
he said that my brake pad is also gone. (until can see the metal scratch)

the brake pump is also leaking.

the bill.

what do you guys think?

is it just me or the f***ing idiot put the brakes the other side around?

brake wise it looks like the pads still got some ways to go however the weird markings/wear indication seems to suggest that either the brakes was severely misplaced, and/or the mech put the heat sink backing plate on the friggin brake surface itself!

still, too bizarre to be true, hopefully other sifu can comment 

rear drum brake pumps leak quite common. replacement is maybe rm20-40 give/take per piece/side

bill looks ok. however to be honest, why ask about bill comments when you've already paid? things like these you ask BEFOREHAND. so if you got chop, how? sulk/sour about it? pointless right?

nope,
never too late to learn anything..if there's any to learn at all
otherwise, sharing is caring

Brake pad rm85?? This is just for 1 pair in front? If i'm not wrong front ori proton part is below rm50... I'm about to change minetoo maybe will see how much and post here when it's done.
