Persona 1.6MT Tranq Black rear drum with 15" Alloy reporting
Hi all, got this car from my brother as he went to work overseas. I actually didn't want to inherit the car, because I already got another and one 'under consideration for restore' vehicle.
But after driving the Persona for half a year, i noticed that the quality of the car as a whole is unlike the Protons of my generation (Iswara/Satria/Wira/Putra). Things that are broken or need to be replaced are;
-Aircon panel switch (On/Off ikut suka)
-Central locking module (Going crazy with lock unlock lock unlock)
-Crankshaft oil seal needs replacement (Need to check engine oil regularly, cant high rev, dirty underside)
-Rear wheel bearing needs replacement (Right side)
-Water in the cabin floor (thanks to the door plastic film seals being so crappy and the water outlet from cooling coil under the dash came loose and allowed the dripping to happen directly on top of the AIRBAG module)
-Rear door rubber seal ALWAYS comes off
-Bushes that holds the steering rack need to be replaced (Can't achieve a good alignment result)
And the car is end 2013 with 30k on the mileage and just 1 time renew roadtax yet all these happens....maybe got a lemon

Feel like selling the car if it continues to make problem.

But maybe, just ignore standard and go with mods

Looks like you got a lemon. Mine has 115k mileage and I dont have those problems *touch wood*
