Guys, this morning my car got problem. At first it worked just fine. Then after for awhile I keep pushed accelerator pedal, the car not pickup and slowly go to 0km/h. Then I restarted the engine. The problem only solve for a while before it went to same symptom again. Anyone experience this? Mine is 2012 FLX Se

usually when service the car, they don't change the fuel filter unless we ask them to change it. need to check it back.

guys,after long consideration and asking many people ( and saving some money too), i sent 'my' car saga flx cvt to overhaul the cvt gearbox...total damage is 4.5k but overhaul gearbox is 3.7k....now no more trauma while driving especially while doing u-turn.

but got some droning-like noise,i suspect need to do alignment since using very old tyre,close to 3 year old although the thread seems nice,perhaps the rubber is hardened edi.

currently using CC6 stock size 185/60-r14...any recommended tyre since i believe need to change all four tyres later, or better stick to CC6?

Brand image lifting done by new Proton CEO
use back 4AT gearbox which put prospective buyer less worry on the tranny.
Price factor, alot cheaper than bezza.
Bezza
RM34,580 for 1.0L G MT
RM36,580 for 1.0L G Auto.
RM43,980 for 1.3L X
RM49,980 for 1.3L AV

Saga 2019
RM32,800 for Standard MT
RM35,800 for Standard AT
RM39,800 for Premium AT
All OTR without insurance.

Check back, in some case, item billed but didnt replaced it. or petrol u pumped previously very dirty caused the fuel filter to clogged up alot faster.
let the car get scanned too.

Good for you. remember send the car to the right foreman or just straight reputable SC instead.. dont feed ATF to your CVT tranny anymore..

Oh ya, the droning-like noise is from the wheel rubber or wheel bearing. my 1st set front bearing gv up around 40k km mileage, 2nd set gv up at arounbd 200k km mileage.

get the car scanned, see any fault code. samotime maybe the SAT switch kacau. if ur car too dusty around the gear lever area may affect the switch too as dust enter into the switch. mine so far so good after 8y+.

Value for money. You get more features for less money.

Hi guys, just wanted to ask opinions if buying a used saga BLM for under 10k is a good idea? Planning to get my first car, figured that i’d be ok to drive it around for 2-3 years and save up money for better car.

very TRUE. my 2008 BLM fc is at 7.2 km/ l since day 1. i would not buy this older model. but the car chasis is really good.

btw, ron 95 is cheap jow at 1.38/ l. i wonder how much to fill a full tank from the red line on the metre?
