12,000 for a CVT box vs 4,000 for a 4AT box.

First, it is too huge of a gamble. Secondly, I could be held responsible for the words I posted if complication arise due to the usage of CVT Fluid other than Esso EZL 799.

Esso lubes not bad what?

They joined with Mobil... so not bad la....

If bought from Proton, Campro engine assembly is the same price as the CVT gearbox, around RM12k not including labour.

but the difference is, Campro is familiar to many bawah pokok workshop....CVT, not so much. Summore CVT difficult to find halfcut.

So in that sense, the CVT is more valuable than the engine. hmm.gif

could an alternative be to fix a FL 4AT if CVT kong? rclxub.gif

guys, if I wanted to upgrade my rims to 15".

What size tyre would be advisable?

I am looking at 195/55R15 but 1 tyre shop told me use 195/50R15. Would the latter be less comfortable?

Hi,
is gaga cvt supposed to have service every 10km like what shown in the service booklet? or like wat shown in
the thread first page show every 5km? Car noob here  sweat.gif . Thanks.

Cvt or manual the same. Service 5k if using Mineral or Semi Synthetic.

10k kms if using fully synthetic.

I recommend using Fully synthetic especially if you are servicing at Proton SC. The Petronas Semi Synthetic Syntium 800 suxx

May be you should have just started off with honesty, stating you import the VS. Tell the truth how much you need to spend on the packaging and shipping costs, probably cost more than the product itself just to be sure it doesn't blew your testicles when those pain in the butt customer shoot you right back on your d***. I have absolutely nothing against you, I booked 1 of those VS, until today still haven't arrive. The challenge for ordinary people online trading with China seller is really pain in the butt, not to mention the waiting time, credit card info, product warranty issues that dragged down to further postage issue, last but not least the accountability and credibility of most China traders are questionable.

So, ask myself again, if there's 1 seller here selling the same RM57 product at triple of it price. Provided the seller tells me how much it weight the shipping cost, packaging material, so as processing and handling fee. On top of that, the I roughly can see the seller earn 20~30 bucks profit, it's fairly reasonable. Instead of risking my own credit card, I'd use the service from the seller. Instead of waiting for something I've paid online, but after 1 month still nothing come, wanna complain also dunno complain where doh.gif If you have all these quality of selling/running a trading business, I'd buy from you instead of buying it online yawn.gif

Frankly, look at the way this going, your sales thread is going no where. I wouldn't say you lie, but it seems too much of changes to your posts after your credibility being challenged. Yeah you can bring forumer go round garden keep telling 1 "excuse"(wished I can use the word LIE, but that sounded harsh ain it?). May be can make up a summarized story or something like

"My friend in China has a factory, and got loads of worker DIY such high capacity voltage stabilizers. I import them with reasonable price, but our government screw me up cause I need to pay import tax, then the packaging material gotta use serious stuff also coz I scare it break the damn thing. Those product you saw on TaoBao is exactly from my friends factory, they're selling it cheap as you can see on line is because those have not gone through import tax, and their free shipping is within mainland China. Other than that I have to bear the warranty cost, because I have to prepare a few extra unit, just incase 1 or 2 nutter head out there screw up, I'll have to give away a unit or 2 of my spare VS as a replacement. 1 must understand, if you order anything from China, means no warranty. Will you spend another 30~40 shipping cost to send the faulty product back to China manufacturer? After they confirmed your unit is entitled for warranty, you'll have to spend another 30~40 to ship it back?! So, I provide a service, and I take the risks you dare not to. Use my product confidently. I make your problem mine, and we solve it together with money because ayam a nicklehead! You pay me enough, your problem solved. If not, you go TaoBao and suffer your own consequences."

Aint the above sound better? I bet nobody will shoot you anymore because they're understandable terms. You should stop using the MY FRIEND DIY "excuse" anymore, because seriously it really doesn't work and make you look EXTREMELY STUPID in your own sales thread. In mainland China, 1 doesn't need a friend/family. Only business partner. I have business associates in China hire a girl to bear his child, and after get a baby girl, he fire the girl and the baby all together. That is called "business deal gone sour". Don't need to shoot me back, I'm just good heart come here and drop you an advice. If you can take it, please use it by all means. If not, just forget about it.

Wow this is something new... hmm....

I think the dealer in Senawang, Negeri Sembilan has the SV model. At least when he introduced to me, he kept asking me to take it and didn't tell me that it is out of stock.

But after that, I decided to go for CVT Exec model.

Good for you.

Dont be penny wise, pound foolish.....

there must be a big catch in the sv.... a hidden prawn in the noodle....

buy sv at your own risk.

IMO, service before going back. change the oil and get all the metal pcs out.... these metals, are minute but can cause premature wear and tear.

The flat bedded rollers will deform, and the whole cone will detached from the housing, so as your wheel (my wheel in this case) yawn.gif It may give some sign/warning prior fully malfunction, but it usually a very short notice. Some can last few months, some 1 day. Mine was extreme condition, so the signal only managed to emit few seconds before the wheel fly off doh.gif


Added on
properly designed car


Picture below, is already a rosaked bearing. Pay attention to the ball seated at 9 o'clock. It has free play, meaning to say the steel ball already shrink due to wear & tear friction. As and when you wheel spin, the surface contact reaches this ball, the surface will knock on the contact and will emit humming sound, which will channel to your cabin. It can stay rosak for a very long time, atleast 5~6 years without the ball fly off.

The bearing structure is so strong, before it deform, some other thing already gave up whistling.gif

Thats why. They can do what they think is profitable.

And I am not talking bad about any so called discount? I am talking about proton supposedly giving a SV with 2 air bags and with a price reduction of almost 9k!

"Got no so big hole for all the frogs to jump in one" - Cantonese saying......

Mengsuan and all those SV supporters can say whatever they want.... belum kena belum tahu....
sudah kena.....hisap jari sendiri ajelah...

I kena already with my Tiara.... almost dejavu for me. my friend's Tiaras, Rm36k. Mine only 27K...

not even 1 year plus, my drive shaft patah....front wheel bearing spoil....
after warranty period, gearbox had to replace 1st and 5th gears....proton mechanic admit, there are visible differences between the 2 Tiara's gearboxes.....

so for all those who support and bought SV.... Good Luck, may your gearbox not be a recon gearbox made in some communist country or your engine not be some recon reject engine from some third world country bought murah murah pukal by proton.... and God Bless.

Jon, all Tiara having the same issues not only yours. If you think you paid cheap to get a lemon car, other Tiara owner thought just about the same as you, coz most the Tiara (if not all) lemoned.

Do you know before Shawie called SAVVY, they actually name it as TRM? It stands for Tiara Replacement Model. The silly Plotong, only God knows what kinda rubbish they have in their mind. Getting the best Renault engine D4F in compare with the old Zitroen AX. There are still 2010 unregistered Savvy H Line around, come with ABS and dual air bags full spec. The last I found was 28k + 5 years warranty rclxms.gif Does it mean after -18k discount, the car is a lemon? Frankly, it's just as lemon as any other Savvy purchased at full price. Bet my previous owner change bearing until fedup then decided to sell car immediately after 7 years loan repayment whistling.gif Recently I found another 2008 H-Line 2nd hen, going for 10k. Already repaired AMT twice within 5 years of loan repayment whistling.gif

Frankly, Plotong can't handle foreign engine/transmission. End of story. As for SV or not, basically its a marketing strategy. The only different between SV and Standard is only the rear boot handle they didn't cover paint, rear cabin lamp missing. Basically in compare with BLM N-Line and B-Line, they're the same with slight different in terms of accessories provided. If you in doubt, please arrange a date with me, I'll bring you go to my bestest showroom let you slow slow inspect what are the difference. If you need to see it from the inside, then I'll have to try to book Sijangkang QC inspection centre liao.

Ha ha ha... you are knowledgable about protons...

anyway see my previous post.... a few of my friends bought the Tiara when it was full price. Rm36K full spec, with radio cassete player, 4 power windows, tinted windows, metallic paint....

I was with an old Fiat, then got sold to buy the Tiara when proton dropped price to Rm27K!!
Nothing changed, still full spec, with radio cassete player, 4 power windows, tinted windows, metallic paint.... I thought I got a damn good bargain....

fast forwards today, my friend is still driving his Tiara. Changed timing belt a few times already.
Drive shaft never patah before, gearbox still functioning...

my Tiara? after I had to cough up almost 1.2K to repair the Gearbox, I sold it off.

So in my experience, the is always a prawn behind the mee if proton suddenly drop price so much for no blooming reason.

Good for you. and welcome to the club!

What colour you took? Manual correct! Power. Trust me. You made a right choice.

My friend is going to book a Standard CVT after I recommended him not to try his luck with the SV. Maybe before Raya.

Acc. to Proton edar site,
Standard = 41,811
SV = 36,888
Difference = RM 4,923

With your discount of 3k,
4,923 - 3,000 = RM 1,923

Please get the standard one.

Like what Russel Peters's " Be a man, Do the right thing!"

buy the standard or the exec if you can afford it...
