Tackle engine noise and road noise first. biggrin.gif Get it done properly with proper sound and vibration absorbing materials, not with things that are meant for heat insulation.

i found my problem , the noise from engine tapping "cit cit cit" when over 2800k rpm , not a iafm , iafm is at back of engine which i never boarder to change even the first day i received the car knowing iafm has this issue , but only happen to me 3rd year after warranty.

the cit cit cit sound is at front , suspect the valve, all the while i use Caltex Havoline EO, but lately i go use Castrol Magnetec for the last two lube change not sure does it made the sound, but performance is superb, i remember last few year the Castrol Magnectec oil never change dark easily but now the new one seems more easily to change dark colour in just >2k km use hmm.gif

recommend me any good campro engine service center to check this notworthy.gif

Not sure about the cost, but ideally you should be changing the following:

I recommend Zordaq Motorsport if you have no other workshops in mind, but they're kinda short of manpower.

I thought X1R is bad cause it causes sludge to build up? hmm.gif

not always use is ok , my car 5 year this is second time use biggrin.gif

I see. I used Ceratec + the WS2 Nano thing last time. My engine is much quieter than it was, and it lost the aggressive acceleration growl.

I search around tesco found only X1r and the STP can additive, shake a bit feel like it is too thick scare ruin my engine oil performance and it is baldy big can with pull ring opener cannot pour only 1/4 and keep the remaining so i buy X1R , after add tapping sound gone and engine now only raw campro sound, performance doesn't minus much can feel like abit elastic rubber pick up, before this is like easy to rev but pickup power seems not in line together.

I'm gonna try the free Octane booster for next tank of petrol, it say can increase 3 index of Ron means Ron95 >Ron98

before using such product; better make sure the engine is in good condition.

for aged persona;i recommend to

-clean your engine from any grease first
-change your valve cover gasket to new one
-change your fuel filter
-clean and reset your throttle body
-change to K&N air filter
-use 5W-30 engine oil
-use new spark plugs
-use Caltex Techron injector cleaner.
-check or replace your purge valve canister.

hopefully your Persona will be much better.from my observation;u can get 300-350KM per 35 liter of fuel for 100% city driving if u keep your engine in tip top condition.

nothing we can do about the sluggishness below 2-3K RPM.but u can try to minimal the effect by

-remove your catalytic converter
-use 4-2-1 extractor
-use lightened crank pulley with same size as OEM.

Kami mendapat beberapa keping foto dari laman Facebook Kamal Suhaili yang menunjukkan unit terakhir model Proton Persona yang akan keluar dari kilang Proton di Tanjung Malim. Ia sekaligus menandakan berakhirnya tempoh sepuluh tahun sejak pengeluaran pertamanya pada 2006 dan model generasi baharunya kini siap sedia untuk dikeluarkan.


Persona generasi baharu juga akan dikeluarkan di kilang yang sama dan setakat ini kami difahamkan ia berada di fasa pra-pengeluaran. Model sedan segmen B ini adalah versi sedan model hatchback Iriz yang bakal bersaing dengan Toyota Vios, Honda City, Polo sedan dan Nissan Almera yang berada dalam segmennya. Generasi baharu Persona bakal dilancarkan selepas pelancaran Perdana 2016 pada bulan hadapan.

Hi guys, my persona is 2 years old  now.
i have done a compressor oil change a year back.
I never add in coolant for the periods of 2 years.

Lately i feel that my aircond is not as cold as it used to be.

For eq last time i use 28 celcius now i use 26 celcius to get the same coldness.

Should i add in coolant on my next svc?
