QUOTE(visioz @ Mar 16 2017, 10:19 AM) hi everyone, If there is defect on the headlamp, yes, but you're talking about burnt out bulb, then it's not covered since it is considered a wear and tear part. However, if you change to a new bulb from Proton SC, you'll get 6 months warranty.does headlight lamp fall under manufacturer warranty? both of my headlamp is bunt out. BTW my car age is 2+ years? thanks |

QUOTE(ChuanHong @ Mar 17 2017, 08:24 AM) some people told me have to change a pair instead of 1 by 1.. so this time i change a pair of bulb.. i did use HID as well.. burned also.. mostly HID will have problem with ballast instead of bulb itself.. haha It's coherently a design flaw in the electrical or wiring system, when I installed the bulbs I always wore gloves.probably need to do with LED?! since halogen and hid is quite sensitive with moisture.. sometime when we install the bulb, might accidentally touch some thing on the glass surface.. LED should be dont have this issue.. |

QUOTE(MetallicSilver @ Mar 17 2017, 11:27 AM) My mechanic told me that the H7 bulb that Preve uses is generally unreliable and has this issue generally across all brands. Not sure how far this is true. Can't say definitively, but yes, Philips, Osram, Bosch, and one Germany-made bulbs (forgot the brand), I've tried all of these and they still ended up burnt.That was when I thought maybe the power output was the problem (55W). Seeing as there was no(?) lower wattage halogen bulb suitable, that's why I opted for 35W HID. I retrofitted my headlamp with 3" xenon projectors for maximum and proper HID lighting, and so far so good. |

QUOTE(Ricky300 @ Mar 30 2017, 11:05 AM) Brake Pad Front [DTEC] - RM160 Ceramic Ah ok, will enquire from him more.or Brake Pad Front - RM120 Normal Brake Rotor Front - RM230 or Brake Rotor Front [XPS] - RM550 Performance rotor Assuming you opted for Ceramic brake pad + Front rotor = RM160 + RM230 = RM390 If you opted for normal brake pad, it will be RM120 + RM230 = RM350 I haven't taken close look at the brake discs since purchasing the car years ago, but judging from part numbers, it seems like the front rotor is different from the rear rotor. |

QUOTE(oto1202 @ Apr 19 2017, 08:14 AM) Time bomb - Oil Cooler Hose. Over 8 years, starting from Exora Bold, solution by proton, change och every 40,000km. But minor case, 1 month then hose burst again. Recommended to change to third party steel hose, cost is less than RM 100 IIANM.Just because of rm16 hose, if it burst, 90% you got major problem. Still another issues, turbocharger, oil feed pipe turbocharger, mounting, fusebox, FC. My suggestion, if you want really feel tiptronic/ pedal shifter / changing gear by hand, try Preve cfe & suprima s. Other than that, nothing. |

QUOTE(rachel_xxx @ Apr 20 2017, 01:01 PM) Semi synthetic oil technically can be used up to 10k or 6 months, but general industry practice is until 5k or 3 months only. Before you decide to proceed to use Syn800 until 10k, please remember that there is warranty issue should anything happen after 5k. |

QUOTE(rachel_xxx @ Apr 20 2017, 01:18 PM) Depends on SC. Like I said, the 5k is recommended but some SC would prefer to play it safe. For you to be on the safe side as well, why not just service to their 'requirement'.The way I see it, you either pay everything twice (including the Syn800) for two 3 months service, or you can choose to use Syn1000/3000/5000/7000 and only do thr service once every 6 months. I would (and have always been) using fully synthetic oil for 10k/6 months, you get better quality engine oil as well. The choice is yours, there's no correct practice to choose. |
