Sorry, Can't give any advise. Just share with you base on my own experience.
Last time a foreman told me it was sound from alternator pulley one way bearing , luckily I'm not change the pulley last time. If not, RM480(price including labor cost at 3rd party workshop) fly away.

FYI, Proton will charge you around RM30X just for the material cost itself.

If you buy from other source may cheaper

I think your case still better than mine, my "tikus" make noise any time it like for 2 months plus, it shock the ppl around when at traffic jam..... quite loud too. So I decided to change it at that moment during replace timing belt.

My gear knob encounter like yours before.
The spring in gear shifter was too strong , gear knob has to gentle release ,otherwise.......
First time 1 clip broken, install back to it housing.
2nd time both clip broken too, temporary use cellophane tape.
Lastly Macgyver using stainless steel pin to hold it. Got take picture last time, but due to accidentally format wrong hard disc previously, all data gone.

Yup, any time. Idling or running too.

Just share to everyone the comparison the different height of spring seat on absorber between few models.

Anybody has use tyre 185/65 R14 before on Saga?

I plan to go for tyre size above from existing 185/60 R14 (3 year 2 month with a lot of crack on tire tread)for my Saga FL .

Purpose of change are due to
1. thicker side wall provide more cushion effect
2. since replace final drive gear with lower gear ratio is quite costly and may problematic, bigger OD tire is my another option to increase a little bit(3.2%) in term of km/h vs RPM.

Expected on cons side and ready to adapt it
-more body roll
-acceleration and braking affected
-more floating on highway
-corner handling

Current car suspension setup
- FL front coil spring & FLX front absorber
- FLX rear coil spring & Sapura standard rear absorber.

Should I try
2 piece of 2nd hand 185/65R14 on front wheel
or 4 piece of 2nd hand 185/65R14
or direct change 4 piece new 185/65R14 tires.

Since this size of tire is rare in Malaysia, once puncture till irreparable, is not easy to get ex-stock tire for replacement. Also afraid I'll regret after change it.

Next time when purchase new tire available brand may limited at tire shop and also on the 'freshness' of tire.

175/65R 14 is out of my list.

Appreciate sifu share their experience who use 185/65R14 before.

Thanks for your info.
A number of brand shown this size tire are available on their website.
Previously I went to few tire shop in Penang island, some said this size need to order some shop has ex-stock but it was old stock.

As my understanding not much car in Malaysia OEM come with this size, thats why I'm afraid it is not common size.
1. Old Nissan Sentra
2. Hyundai Getz
3. Old Hyundai Accent

Anyway, I'll go to more tire shop ask for it.

This method works well on my another car(rear lamp). Just drill a hole diameter 1.0mm drill at the lowest portion of lamp housing will do. Tiny hole not so obvious, so won't have ugly issue .
When sunlight heat up the lamp housing during hot day, air inside will expand and push to drain the water.
