mandrewBelow photos, first one is the half melted nipple. The second one is after it was removed, and a bigger hole was bored. You'll see a copper tip after all is done.

I sent for alignment at the P1SC, and the alignment tech opened the hood. Then, he asked another service tech to turn the steering left and right. Took a look at the steering rack movement, and asked me to go inside the service counter, and claim for replacement.

In my case, the steering bias and alignment was quite bad, until the tyre wear is uneven. Left tyre makan inside, and right tyre makan outside. So, even after alignment, the steering cannot go straight because the tyres are already uneven. I had to throw away the front tyres, swap them with the rears, and get a new pair for the rear.

Here's more detail as posted in V3 earlier by another member:

Guys, just come to know from a friend of mine who also own an EB(~2years) that has replace his EB "steering shaft" for 3rd time & he told me Proton aware of this issued.

Understand that those EB which can't hold on to the center of the steer then we should check the "steering shaft" mount with an rubber holder(as per attached photo). Asked someone to steer in the car & observe from the right side of engine compartment  to see is the shaft freeing move!!! My is freeing move & my friend told me this is mild & his 1 is very serious... rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif 

Will log an complained & hope they can have it fix when I did my 10K service... notworthy.gif

Hey bro,
I think I have the same problem with my EB.
1. Engine dies while reversing
2. Car has no response at transmission "D" & "R", red exclamation sign lits on the panel.

I brought to SC Meru, Bukit Tinggi but they said they r not
Equipped to check the issue. They only recommend Glenmarie n Pandamaran as they have the system to check n rectify. I brought it to Pandamaran SC and they informed tat it's common and the "computer chip need to be re-programmed". The next morning the problem is reoccurs. :-(
Any advice?

For your question 1, you need to try and check a couple of things out.

1. Verify the throttle body is clean if questionable then clean it out with carb cleaner.
2. Test the battery and all ground and connections
3. Then check to if the torque convert to see if it is off balanced or wobbling. The Sensor could be having trouble reading it while in reverse.
4. Have to make sure the correct fluid was installed.
5. Check for a vacuum leak.

Hi,
Just to correct you a few things

1) This car uses electronic throttle/drive by wire throttle. So I wouldn't recommend cleaning it.
2) This car doesn't use torque converter. It uses a wet clutch.

The best is skunkz to send back to SC for clutch calibration as explained previously by Kristof of Punch PowerTrain.

Read the link here:

If still cannot, then try email Punch Powertrain Malaysia.

Why do you want to dismantle? Just fold the 2 seats flat will do.

Dismantle permanently to get maximum storage space and no need to 'carry' the 3rd row seat as luggage.

*Maybe I should say 'additional storage space' instead of 'maximum storage space'.

what to do. just wait and hoping it won't burst until you get it replaced. i do have another car for daily used. so the BOLD just parked or only drive short distance around my area until the SC called for the replacement. now it all over and i really 'lenjan' the car to 'lepas gian'. drool.gif
