Hello guys,

Need some advice.
After the heavy downpour just now in the Klang Valley, my persona sv alarm just went crazy. I can't use my alarm to lock my car and have no choice but to use key to manually lock it.

Any 1 of you have any such experience?

Thanks in advance.

My car alarm always sound when there is heavy rain, but i never have problem with using remote to unlock and lock my car.
If you see the red LED blinking at the dashboard, just reset it using the middle button above the music player.

Do they do engine tuning or mod other than repair service?
Compare to Dori Dori, any different? But I always see not much ppl at dori everytime I passing by,maybe because it's lunch time, lol.

Feeling the car quite heavy to move from static when drive below 2k rpm. Same feel when driving preve executive.

handbrake not released?

Or sometime when you unlock door, if no door is open,the door lock won't auto lock until you open a door and close back.

Ok for the aircond cent sound, try adjust the vent (the direction of the air), at certain angle the sound will be gone.

Another source of noise is from the lower part of the audio system, when I free I will take pic to show u, I sepit a piece of paper at the gap to stop the rattling noise.
*
I also have such problem, did the same stuck in some sponge. I still have another rattling sound from lower back cover of steering wheel, black cover at bottom wind screen passenger side when driving above 100km/h will vibrate and make sound.

Yeah the dahsboard noise will come & go so no problem to me.

Hey, do u guys do service on 5k mileage?
The service book said 1k service then 10k service, but many blog said they service at 5k.
*
Service manual stated 10k interval, if you hardcore driver, 5k interval recommended.

QUOTE(ahnee92 @ Jun 19 2015, 01:08 PM)
50 litres for manual? so auto will be different or share the same tank??
*
Both AT and MT same 50 litter tank. But fuel indicator start blinking, when around 10 liter left, my estimation. I not dare to go further than 50km after blinking. Now I practise fill petrol when left last bar.

thx for the advise bro, never ever feel so useful bout the fog lamps until recently driving alone in the night with heavily rain  rolleyes.gif
*
To add fog lamp, you also need to replace the dashboard switch. The car already have the wire connector,it's plug and play.

I plan to add fog lamp when replace my bumper next week.
All parts are ori proton.

do let me knw the price quotation from proton sc, so sad to see yr bumper, typical problem?? or kena bang by someone???
*
I did not go to SC. I went to Zordaq, he refer me to his friend workshop in Jalan Kebun. Will do on next Saturday because the bumper in stock, but need to do painting first. bumper cost 300 and fog lamp installation cost 350. When i arrived there, another persona just done his bumper replacement, the finishing work is quite good. I will let you know after I done mine.

accident happened when i went taman pertanian yesterday morning, park at the slope parking. Normally i only pull handbrake until 1 click or 2 click, the car wont move anymore when 2 person in the car.
However after 10 minutes while waiting for friends arrive under the tree, i see my car move by itself, and hit the divider in front. the bumper break when i reverse my car.

Yes, always dirty and the rims are difficult to wash, even using tooth brush and my rear brake always got sound. Loud sound "wong wong" when braking during reverse.

typical problem la bro, my bro told me to self change the disc brake since my dad is selling spare parts, so nt difficult finding nice branding, but before tat, i approach to the sc before and he told me warranty for brake system will be voided sweat.gif

all this are the problems (mostly rattling noise) I noticed when I first get my car

i) heavy rattling sound came from the steering either driving or idling when waiting traffic light, i guess they din lock tightly enough when they first service checked the airbag i assumed (got it repair and fixed at proton sc later then)
ii) the 2nd sound is came from the defect of gearbox mounting, firstly I tot the sound is made by the left tyre, whenever I release brake and drive, the annoying sound will popped out like "gok gok gok" (got it done also after waited for the gearbox mounting for three weeks as claimed by the sc said they only left with manual gb mtg)
iii) third sound is quite minor for me as it doesn't actually happen quite often, just seldom or once in awhile when i first start my engine and reverse, sometimes it will had a loud pulling sound, like u driving with your handbrake pulled up (can't fix this yet as the mechanic said they don't even encounter any of this problem before)

well I guess temporary this are all the problems i faced with a total mileage drove for 5.6k now, bought since last year October biggrin.gif
*
Mine just 1 month older than yours Already runs for 23k km. But I don't face any major problem yet, and hopefully it won't be any.

Hi,  did u u replaced it at proton body and paint center? I jz hit a dog on the highway, right hand front bumper partially torn off.

Should I sent it to proton or any workshop?
*
I do at outside workshop, I don't like proton service center some time very crowded, and slow. So I am not sure how much or how long to do at proton workshop.
At outside workshop, you can have either ori part or non ori part, so can fix at lower cost.

Today I saw another persona replace with non ori bumper, nothing different.

I have experienced the exact sound , "Wong Wong wong" it's pretty loud. I'm not sure why it's like that but it didn't affect the brake performance. But nowadays the sound is gone.
*
I noticed many SV version have this problem for the rear disk brake, mine too. I complained to the service center when doing 20k service, the foreman just use air gun to blow all my brakes, its very dusty, but does not solve the problem. The sound usually gone after few hard brake. if you driving forward, it is screeching sound like normal wear off brake, but when reverse, it is wong wong sound. till now still remained unsolved case. Need to remove tyre to check properly maybe.

Anybody here using steering cover? I bought one but seems like it's slightly too big for my steering... Persona's steering seems a lot smaller than others.

If it is non elastic, it always a little bigger in size. Either you tie it, or stuck something inside.

Sifu ,

I'm driving a Base line model and I'm having problem with the alarm system.

There is a tik tok noise whenever I tried to remotely lock the door and the radio is dead with a red light flickering when I drive.

Last night suddenly the alarm won't buzzing. So for now I just remove the battery.
Anyone can show me how to remove the alarm system so I can drive to the mechanic ?  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif

Not so understand what you want to express.


"the radio is dead with a red light flickering when I drive." ?? is there red light at radio?
"suddenly the alarm won't buzzing. So for now I just remove the battery."?? why remove battery?

i've service two times already at the damansara damai proton sc agent. but i dont believe them 100%. because both time specifically ive ask for the box and bottles. but none are given. though they talk really nice and all, but well im used to be grease-monkey with my motorcycles, so when i cant see my car getting serviced/change part, its really not that satisfying. no communication whatsoever with the foreman. they do job. u give money. the end.

and i know majority foreman lies/steals  rolleyes.gif
*
I always go see and have little chat with the foreman when they starting to open my hood to make sure they replace the necessary items, usually they will bring all the parts out and put aside, so I see what item they prepare to replace.

but last week I went to do 30k major service, the lady at the counter is changed, when I check my bill after left, wth is this screen washer in my bill?! since past 1k, 10k, 20k service this item never in my bill. next time I'll pay attention and get explanation from the boss.
