QUOTE(caviars @ Mar 21 2023, 08:11 PM) The symptom looks like valve cover gasket. But you said you had it changed twice. Do you trust the workmanship and the part used? The 1st time was done by an ex mechanic that worked for Proton, he has his own shop and i have done a few thigns at his shop before. 2nd time was done at a shop called Autohaus, they are pretty well known. Maybe I was unlucky that i got faulty valve cover gasket. Probably going to try and ask opinions from other mechanics.

QUOTE(vostro @ Mar 23 2023, 01:50 PM) Need some advise. I drive 2011 Saga FL. Some days I am having trouble starting my car. When i turn the ignition to start, got 1 "tak" sound and can't start. Usually i wait a few minutes and try again. After a few attempts, it usually starts. Sometimes it just starts normally. I suspect starter is giving problems. I googled, there is a shop in Kepong that specializes in fixing starters/alternators. I don't know how it will cost to check and fix but I also don't know much a replacement starter cost at a workshop. Anyone has replaced their starter before and how much? Or anyone has try to fix their starter before? I have replace mine last year, for about 400++. I have the same problem as you but I didn't bother to change it until 1 day I need about 5 mins of trying to start my car. If you have the money I recommend you to change a new one. As for fixing it, I have no experience doing this.

Hi,
Anybody have water leak problem at back bonnet before this? My Saga BLM have this problem, water coming in from the left side, I change the rubber part and no leak for a while. After that it happened again so I change the rubber part again, but it seems like not the problem with the rubber part because water is still coming in. Kinda frustrated not being able to detect the problem. Anybody experienced this before?

Hi everyone,
I drive a Saga BLM 2009, i have this weird problem. When heavy rain my car engine jerks like crazy like is about to die. This only happens when it is raining very heavy or when I go to a car wash. I sometimes wash the car with the engine on, I notice the jerking happens when water is sprayed on the left front side on the car. Could this be due to a sensor or some other problem? It has been a few months, I still couldn't figure out the problem.
