Since there are many questions about which Proton Service Centre to go to, so I decided to setup this forum to rate them to help you decide.
I'll update the rating based on good and bad only.
Please give feedback/share your recent visit to Proton SC and give your rating either good or bad only.
If your rating is bad please state your problem briefly.

Coolman Auto Air Cond Service
Very professional, good workmanship and explain clearly. I changed my condenser leaking oil and gas. A lot of Proton cars changed their condenser there also.

When to do wheel alignment
Your car seems to be drifting to one side, even when you think you're driving straight
You are driving straight, but your steering wheel isn't centered

When to do wheel balancing
Vibration in the steering wheel at certain highway speeds
FYI: Wheel alignment and balancing at PJ Sec 13 SC RM66.00

When to change your tyres
http://www.dunloptyres.co.za/Tyre-Care/Whe...ange-your-tyres
Once your tyres have been on your car for five years, Dunlop recommends having them inspected properly at least once a year. Age deteriorates your tyres regardless of whether or not you drive on them, and it is recommended to get them replaced at the very least every ten years, even if they don’t look worn. Remember that tyre age is measured from the date of manufacture, not of purchase, as tyres wear even in storage.

http://www.michelin.co.uk/tyres/learn-shar...change-my-tyres
After five years or more in service, your tyres should be thoroughly inspected at least once per year. If the need arises, follow the recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer regarding replacing the original equipment tyres. As a precaution, if the tyres have not been replaced 10 years from their date of manufacture (see how to read a tyre sidewall), Michelin recommends replacing them with new tyres. Even if they appear to be in usable condition and have not worn down to the tread wear indicator.

My PS4 tyres lasted me only 4yrs or 36k KM. Had to change cause thread already partly peel off on the sides.

http://www.bridgestone.com.au/tyres/passenger/care/age.aspx
How old is too old?
This is a subject of much debate within the tyre industry and no tyre expert can tell exactly how long a tyre will last. However, on the results of experience many tyre companies, including Bridgestone, warrant their tyres against manufacturing and material defects for five years from the date of manufacture. Based on their understanding a number of vehicle manufacturers are now advising against the use of tyres that are more than six years old due to the effects of ageing.

Fully Synthetic
(Source:www.mymesra.com.my)
Shell Hilux Ultra 4L(5w-40) RM247
Shell Hilux HX7 4L RM131
(New formula with Shell PurePlus Technology. Old formula Active Cleansing Agents is much more cheaper. Clearing old stock.)

Differences between API SM and API SL eg. Synthium 800 SM 4L
American Petroleum Institute (API) SM has higher requirements for the lubricants to meet such as superior engine performance, protection and cleanliness as compared to the requirements of API SL.
PETRONAS API SM lubricants will eventually replacing all API SL lubricants. Certain API SL lubricants are sold until stock last.

Source:www.carbibles.com/engineoil_bible.html
Fully Synthetic (0W-30, 0W-40,5W-40)
Fuel economy savings
Enhances engine performance and power
Ensures engine is protected from wear and deposit build-up
Ensures good cold starting and quick circulation in freezing temperatures
Gets to moving parts of the engine quickly

Semi-synthetic (5W-30, 10W-40, 15W-40)
Better protection
Good protection within the first 10 minutes after starting out
Roughly three times better at reducing engine wear
Increased oil change intervals - don't need to change it quite so often

Mineral (10W-40, 15W-40)
Basic protection for a variety of engines
Oil needs to be changed more often

Oil type Typically used in....
5W-30 Cooler climates, like Sweden or Canada
10W-40 Temperate climates, like England
15W-50 Hot climates, like Italy, Spain, Egypt

Source:www.shell.com
Note: W, which stands for winter. This number represents the lubricant’s viscosity under lower temperatures, giving an indication of how the oil will flow in the winter. The lower the first number, the thinner it is at low temperatures.

The second number, which appears after the W, represents the oil's viscosity under high temperatures. The higher the number, the thicker the oil will stay at high temperatures. Using the correct viscosity for your engine increases engine performance, reduces engine wear and increases fuel efficiency.

Engine oil additives
Myth 4: “Additives can boost engine oil and engine performance.”
Adding commercially available additives to engine oil is like adding sugar to your soft drink – you do not need it. Premium engine oils have been formulated with all the additives necessary to ensure optimum engine performance.
Additives cannot reduce oil consumption in an old engine or restore the engine protection properties of an old oil. In fact, additives may upset the oil chemistry and create new problems.
It is safer and more economical to use quality tested and ‘packaged’ premium oils. Do not waste your money on additives.

Engine oil change interval
From: I.CARE CENTRE PROTON EDAR <I.CARE@proton.com>
To: Jxxxxxxxx
Sent: Wed, 7 April, 2010 7:58:40 AM
Subject: RE: Oil change interval

Dear Mr Jxxxx,

First of all, please accept our sincere apologies on the delayed reply to your enquiry.

Referring to your concern, we would like to inform that there is no harm in servicing your vehicle at every 5,000km or 10,000km. At the end of the day, regular servicing is only extra care for ones vehicle. In your case, if you are confused with the servicing schedule, we would strongly advice you to use the service booklet as your guide.

Normally we, as users would be able to ‘feel’ the condition of our car. For example, if the vehicle is under severe usage, one would feel the engine performance a little’ heavy’ after a period of time. In this case, servicing the vehicle at the 5,000km interval is definitely most advisable. Otherwise, the latter would suffice.

Hope this clarifies your doubt. Thank you.

Best Regards,
Dxxxx

Went to Pusat Perkhidmatan Satria Sdn Bhd for checking faulty sensor. Need 2 weeks for part replacement?!

Small SC and not crowded. SA was friendly.

Then went to Proton Edar Petaling Jaya(No. 17, Seksyen 51A, Jalan 227, 03-79568811) very close by.

Quite big SC and good waiting area which is quite similar to CoSE.
Parking space seems to be full. Looks like they do bodywork and paint, got few parked accident cars and 1 waiting for paint to dry cover with plastic.

Inside waiting area not many customers. There's another smaller waiting area on 1st floor.

They prefer customers to do booking for appointment. Cannot do replacement part but asked to book weekdays to do it. Looks like most SC prefer to do servicing only on Saturdays.

I think COSE accepts it.

The one I always go to is SM Bolton Sdn. Bhd [Selayang]. So far satisfied with it, have claimed warranty at no hassle. Sometimes they called me before to remind that my car needed servicing soon.

Wifi, TV and newspapers at waiting area.

Some SC wont even allow you to top up for full synth oil using the vouchers. ...

That's bad. We can use the vouchers(3 yrs free service) for any EO except cannot use multiple vouchers at one time(T&C: One voucher for one redemption only and cannot be accumulated). The extra costs we had to top up. Unless that SC does not have the full synth EO and insist to use mineral/semi-synth(TQ Quazacolt my bad, too much sync in my mind rclxub.gif ).

Better check first if the SC have the EO or allow to bring our own(if it does not void the warranty).

Proton CoSE allow you to bring your EO with condition that engine warranty void.
Been there and done that until my car warranty ended. Currently no more warranty but send back to CoSE to claim IAFM and rear axle.

I would recommend CoSE for their services (at least to one of their SA which I only allow him to treat my car)

This morning went to Proton Edar Section 13(Bodywork & Paint, Jalan 13/6A, PJ, 03-79577427) for warranty claim and was very satisfied with their service and friendly too. Lucky they do have stock rclxms.gif or else have to go there again when they received the replacement part. My appointment 8am and reached there 7.30am they already opened.

Good waiting area with light refreshments. If want heavy refreshments just walk outside the entrance and enjoy the hawker stalls along the road.

The service area is at the sides of the square building and in the center you park your car for servicing. Saw one car being respray with new paint.

They have EO up to 1K full synth. Can try to request SC to order 3K full synth if you really need it.
