rotor and disc brake if dust get into it, it will caused the annoying noise too....but if your rotor is cheap default one, you will still get some dust even though u changed to a better brake pads, it shows that racing disc rotor+racing disc brake seems to hv lesser or nearly zero dust compare to default parts

Cheap Brake pad. lil poor performance. More dust , when the brake have dust will cost some annoying noise.

Good brake pad will also cause sound. especially the ceramic type brake pad.


Rotor doesnt really will cause the sound. Mostly is the brake pad.

any cheap and nice tyres below rm200 to recommend?

If u can find some shop selling bridgestone potenza re003 in below 200.
There is some seller and shop is selling below 200. But need to put some effort to get it.

I run highway quite often. So was thinking fully synthetic. The svc centre I go have 2 kind 1 is 0w30 the other I forget already. I'm still new to car.not good on choosing which engine oil. I'll be svcing soon. Like 5 days from now. I choose 0w30 that time. They say is better of course is more exp( they earn more) that's y say its better.

I have

spareparts shops selling Proton ATF is it original? worry if its imitation.

I feel my persona's steering and car vibrating when speed up to 130-140 and become not vibrating after 150.

Why is it like this?

Thanks.

Sigh. New wheel bearings, new problem. The wong wong sound between 60-80km/h has disappeared completely, but now after some time of driving, the bearings will exhibit a high pitch noise/wheee noise below 40km/h. I was told by the experts that the noise is common with some NTN bearings, and should disappear after enough mileage has been racked up.

If you're worried, buy it from an authorised Proton dealer. I dunno how to differentiate original and fake ATF.

Tyre not completely round / absorber mounting rosak / rim problem.

Go check your absorber mountings, and if they are spoilt, change them, then only re-do the balancing. Do high speed balancing if needed.

Hi guys, my PE exhaust has fuel-rich smell.. You guys have any idea what cause this??

Fuel pump rosak?? Fuek injector rosak?? ECU mapping?? Please advise..

During first start of the day / cold start? During operation at normal temperature?

I suspect the O2 Sensor.

better buy Mitsubishi Diaqueen SP3

Using Proton sp3 ATF no problems. Now already 22k yet changed my atf.

I've 3rd party ATF cooler
Hayden Rapid Cool

ATF cooler better for AT or Manual?

I dint see MT have ATF cooler before. ( not only persona )

Only AT have atf cooler.

After some time of driving with the new steering rack bushes (silicone), I have to say that it's much easier to hold the cornering line now. Previously my car would sometimes corner well, sometimes wobble a bit midway during corner, and sometimes start going wide. With the new steering rack bushes however, the wobble and straying seems to have disappeared. It didn't solve my random pedal area kok kok noise though.

I did the change myself since I had a lot of space to work with, plus I wanted to save RM60. Since your car is the SV model, I think you will have to get underneath the car to get access to both of the bushings since the ABS module is located just above the passenger side bushing. If you don't have the tools and time, get the workshop to do it for you, and maybe get higher quality/performance bushings (e.g PU bush) while you're at it since you'll have to pay for the labour.

I see. I hope mine disappears soon.

thanks for reply, my SV almost 2 years already, should i go change for new steering rack bushes (silicone)?



the mechanic said my stock brake pads still in good condition

however, done changing front brake pads to Bendix Ultimate,
