I'm not a seller. I'm talking about bulk order, not selling. Its a customize intake hose I DIY from other car. Whole set, the hose and bracket and the filter are included.

I see.So,more expensive the better type of air filter?

Btw bro,just watched one of your vids on the changing cabin filter DIY and I checked mine but dont have the filter blink.gif .Where do I get them?

Hey guys,sorry for spamming this page lately.Reason why is,because my savvy have been left alone for quite sometime and long story short,just start to use it back a little bit.After couple of months driving,discovered few problem with my savvy and also planning to renew some parts if necessary.

So,if you guys could help me out,mind telling me where's the realiable place to get it repair or maybe suggest a place where I could buy some parts or anything.

Here's some probs with my savvy I discovered;
1)Speed sensor haywire cry.gif ..while driving,suddenly meter drop to 0.
2)I think my gearbox is leaking(MT btw)..Reason:while driving on 4th or 5th gear,it gets shaky and sometime abit hard to change gear.
3)When I turn my steering fully,got *ktak* sound hmm.gif

Thanks in advance! biggrin.gif

1) http://www.mudah.my/Renault+Proton+Savvy+S...or-28534924.htm

2) Change gear oil 1st, and how are you so sure it's not power steering fluid? Brake fluid? Radiator coolant? or Engine oil that is leaking?

3) If you're in KL, please send to Jalan Ipoh, and look for nestum to troubleshoot for you.

RM70 is that the price for speed meter?I look underneath and saw oil exactly under gearbox.Plus,like I said,sometime its hard for me to change gear and while driving on 4th or 5th gear,it gets really shaky too sometime.So cant be power steering fluid or break fluid right hmm.gif

Good workshop?But quite far man to leave my car there and go back home.

Btw,how much is the labour charge nowdays?

Since u ask, I tell u my experience nia. Question me back in a sarcasm isn't gonna help. Moreover, ayam troubleshoot over thin air, I can't possibly know what and where went wrong. Shakeyness as u claimed, izit forward vibration or side way wobbling? The shakeyness as claimed by u can be many other issue like follow:

1) Tyre pregnant
2) Clutch plate wear off
3) Clutch cover lost tension
4) Rim bengkok
5) Driveshaft bearing ko
6) Driveshaft retainer spring detached/snapped
7) Flywheel bengkok
8) Dog clutch gears wear off

U see, other than item no.8, none of them are directly involved in the transmission box. Hard to bang gears usually is item no.3. Since u so determined its gebox plobrem, regardless where u sent ur car to, the technician will agree with u bcoz they get to charge u a price of gebox replacement, whereas could possibly be item no.6, open driveshaft boot, place back the spring in place. Reinstall it back & give u a bill of RM2k for "change gebox"

I'm not saying ur car shake due to other fluid is leaking,I'm just saying it could be other stuff that is leaking. Since now oni u tell me u saw oil leaked from gebox section then fine la. Does leak means vibration? Does vibrate means must be from gebox since its leaking? So, in the end its your car, your money. I'm just trying to help. Sometimes repairing car is not about how close the shop is, its how reliable they are. U know I know Shawie need special care by Renault specialist, u sumoar wanna find some ordinary workshop to work on your car? Fine la go ahead & "change gebox". nod.gif

Don't get me wrong. I'm not angry. Just being worried/anxiously trying to save u from being chopped. That however didn't count if u have decided ur gebox needed to be "overhaul/so called changed" by your nearby professional, I can't stop u though.

haha,why want question you back in sarcasm bro sleep.gif.Dont get mad,im just telling what I saw on my shabi only.

No 1 and 4 definately out.The rest is possible.Does oil leakage in gearbox will cause gear to shake while driving or not?Definately not going to a workshop and tell the foreman my gearbox got problem bro,since I also donno what is the real problem.Just discussing it here with you guys here since all of you have experience on repairing,mods and etc.

Where is renault workshop btw?

Number 3 could be the clock spring. I've changed mine abt 1 month ago. So far, almost 9 years of using. Main problem is sensors..

try and look for this guy jiash87 in this forum. He can help you with some parts as well.

Yeah I think so.How much does it cost?

So far my savvy sensor problem is the tdc.jiash87 a savvy user too?

Today COD with h0pefree, finally got my power steering switch replaced. To those who suffering(or more properly described as slaughtered by Plotong and or any other workshop), you may look for him. Originally he's selling it for RM80(*Which is already 1/2 price of what I can get from sparepart shop, and usually Plotong will ask for 250), was surprised to get another RM10 discount from him. Ended up RM70 to solved my power steering switch leaking issue for 2 years now! Thinking back, don't know how many bottle of ATF fluid I've leaked over the years, should have get the switch from him and changed it very much earlier doh.gif

Ladies & gentlemen, just incase if you're interested, he also furnish many other Shawie part for AMT and MT, especially those common rosak item, such as:

1) Speed sensor RM90
2) TDC sensor RM90
3) Power steering switch RM80
4) Fuel pump RM200
5) Accumulator for AMT RM450
6) AMT Electric pump RM490
7) Thermostat and housing RM100

Frankly, these are the prices that will make me roll down manly tear.

Those who interested to obtain part from him, may direct deal with him at CELCOM9 - 776391FIVE . No ayam not anyway affiliate with him. Don't expect put up my name can get more discount. How much you can negotiate with him is entirely your effort/ability, I don't earn/lose a single cent from my pocket either you buy/don't buy from him. Just thought of sharing this very honest Shawie part seller to everyone nod.gif

Usually I sent my savvy back to proton SC at Cheras for replace AMT parts. Reasonable workmanship and skillful foreman. I never experience with other workshop on this. Can't give any comment on the price they charge. However, my experience with 3rd party workshop is part price will be more expensive than spare part shop, some even expensive than. Proton SC.

Just give an example, you try ask savvy engine oil filter price at workshop or spare part shop. Definitely expensive than rm12.75 which is the price selling at proton SC.
*
But alot ppl say proton SC is terrible as in sometime they repair things that shouldnt be repaired and also spare parts at proton SC is expensive.Probably now the spare part is already cheap since already 7-8 years?

So,its better to get the spare part ourself if we know whats the problem and ask them fix it?Btw,mine is MT.David recommend me to try renautech since they specialist on renault engines.
