What is the timing belt cost?

The labor cost is usually higher than the belt itself..

When in gear, HHA will automatically kick in when u press the brakes all the way in. When you release the brakes, u have 3 seconds before HHA deactivates. During this time, u have plenty of time to balance the clutch. Btw HHA kicks in automatically when it detects you're on a slope. Note that it doesnt kick in on very low incline slopes. It works on both. Sometimes on jam hill roads, I prefer to just step on the brakes just enough to hold the car at a stop so HHA doesnt kick in.
*Based on my experience driving Iriz MT.
I was at a meeting with the Proton CTO and someone from fb Iriz group asked why wasn't there a Lotus tuning badge on the Iriz. The response was because they were not using Lotus tuning.
*
mr rashid musa isnt entirely wrong,but they have to pay lotus for the badge. for example,preve,it was tout as proton ride n handling 1st, now wearing lotus rnh. well,preve rnh was under syammim's team which is local,and of course as sop,will be tested in lotus tracks. and syammim n his team were ex lotus as usual.

it just that it isnt as usual like waja,perdana,gen2,neo,old persona which for last calibration will be handed to lotus. during that time,the spearhead is under ym tgku azizan,which is n still the master of the dark art for proton. (many still under training at lotus during that time,n some still residents engineer at lotus. )

now its proton engineers do all the works here n hethel,plus some help from lotus engineers. if i still can remember some videos of preve or iriz at sweden, there was mat salleh who was driving the car.

but for now,its mat din n geng time.

contacted proton care about the free 3 years parts here's what they have to say

not bad imo  :thumbsup:

beltings are not covered unfortunately but unless travel a lot then shouldnt worry since need 120k before replacing

so the first 3 years should be okay

To all the earliest Persona owner that will get their car soon, did you planning to straight away change the car tyre and rim after get the car?

change with light weight 16" rim + Advan DB
(quiet tyre) = comfort setting

user posted image

Or

Change with light weight 16" rim + Re003
(stick like glue tyre)= sport setting

The car would look nicer with 16" rim. Especially solid white persona + black sport rim thumbup.gif

Just go to showroom today with my dad for new Persona

The price is very very hard to say no

Worth every cent

Plss keep the update ones receive the car yaa..

Those who secured/ gotten theirs...

Q1) Any of you able to get extra rebate (maybe 1k or 2k?)
Q2) What are the freebies ? (umbrellas etc?)
Q3) Did salesmen offered/mentioned about extended warranty period (to 5yrs) by adding in extra $$ ?

u can get introduction fee.

best bet you go to dealer. normally they willing to give more discount than branch.

I believe buying car in KL/Klang will have higher chances for getting more discount.
