Hi All,

Does any one know what's the difference between an imitation part and original parts of the the piece of plastic on the door that holds the windows motor??

I went to a shop and ask they told me local made and original are the same.. the price for local made was around RM280 while the original was RM380, difference about RM100. But when I ask what was the difference, they told me it's the same..

However, I saw in some forums mentioned that the original one has a metal place on the part that the moter should be mounted. But the shop told me there's no metal plate on place to mount the engine..

Then I went to proton service center and they told me the part  was RM430 + labour RM35... and they told me got metal plate on the place to mount the engine... But the price was nea rto RM475...

So can anyone tell me how much is the original made part? How much should i expect... is RM475 too much to pay for?

But from the guy in lelong.. it's selling the part for RM 238...

Well.. I guess not original loh... so for those that have recently change the part.. can someone tell me how much is the actual price..  I know i can get cheaper in other shops other than proton service center...but i am to know the money i paid for is really for original one and not imitation one...

btw.. how many kinds of parts are they right now in the market...

1) original
2) locally made (imitation)
3) taiwan made (imitation too, but quality is bad than the locally made)

haha.. i'm no WPC member. i just registered to read one article and found out you need to "register officially" to get to the tech section - kinda rip off

never visited that site anymore, unless someone linked a good technical article

anyone drove both waja mitsu and campro go up genting b4??

Great.. I'm not too worried abt the power windows and door handle.
Anyone driving the manual one? How's the FC for the manual one?

i was going to do my 15k service - then i realized that the manual book did not recommend a 15k service

it goes like this

1,000 km
5,000 km
10,000 km
20,000 km
30,000 km

and so on. no 5,000km interval, except for the 1st 5k. check out your proton manual

so, since i am a law abiding citizen, i saved some money by not servicing my car at 15k.

1 year old.. Still pretty new.
Good handling and responsive,great..

Not enough omph? $$ have to be enough omph as well if you're looking for an omphhhhh car..

May i know where do you guyz service your car? The proton sc in sri petaling is charging abit high, i'm looking for alternatives now Btw, how much does it cost u for minor and major service?

750 - 800km .. oh man i love ur FC . . .

My 2002 Waja(M) only done 69k km,Mitsubishi engine,alternator today kong-bearing worn off,bearing housing worn off .So,cannot be repaired.New alternator very  expensive, RM700+.So,I settle for one from potong  kereta shop that cost me Rm150,labour RM40.

All my previous cars alternator last at least 5 yrs,Proton one tak tahan lama?  

If i'm not wrong, new spectra is around RM57,400 OTR now? That cheap but the fuel
But i sat in spectra once not bad quite stable, but im looking at 2003 Waja as well, how much is the market price now?

i skipped my 15k service. i was at the PESC and just about to register for a 15k service when i noticed the booklet didn't recommend any 15k service. the next service will be 20k. saved me some moolah there
fully synth or semi synth - what difference can it make when most of the time, it's normal driving? the difference, i guess, is perhaps in price and also psychic-hp boost
