Hi, I need to change the timing belt for my saga flx (2011), should i change water pump and FEAD belt too?? where can i find the parts if i wanna do it with outside workshop? I can only find gates timing belt kit (RM270) and paraut water pump (RM80), where to find the FEAD belt?Tq
*
I change my fead belt and timing belt together at around 80k+ mileage, but i didnt change the water pump..

I get my proton ori timing belt n Gates FEAD belt at usj14 subang spare parts shop.

But where you stay? LOL... later other intro you shops at Perlis or Sarawak or Kelantan one... tongue.gif

I see. Interesting. I was using the proton service centre semi synthetic for first 5 years, then after that Ive been using Shell helix hx7.
Total 7000 semi would you say better than hx7?
*
I will say petronas syn800 semi eo is crap when i used it in 2012-2013, switched to fully syn eo, happy since then... biggrin.gif

Nope, a way to trigger the durian light.

Push half way in b4 the switch clicked, the durian light will lit up, once fully push-in the switch clicked, the durian light will go off..

Hi Saga Experts,

Need a few suggestion on what to check before CNY (long journey home).

The reason why I am asking because my mileage is 2.4k away from service.

And I know how to check air pressure & tires. What else should I check on my 1.3 Saga FLX (MT)?

Thank you for your help.

-Lastly would like to ask about Mineral engine oil is it safe for my engine - on long travel?
*
imo, travel smoothly shouldnt have any problem... try use semi eo or fully eo.. cheap fully eo only around RM120/4L

check fead belt n timing belt physical condition, tires wear & tear, brake pad maybe, battery water level if u r using wet batt, power steering fluid, brake fluid, radiator reservoir, coolant in good conditioin, some extra water in case overheat, brake light and make sure nothing is blocking the cvt, ac, radiator surface

Depending on how the car is maintained previously. Blm ones are old & may need some repairs for it to be good condition. Spare parts for certain parts of blm is cheaper than flx too such as headlights, absorber etc. On the positive side, flx gear changing feel is more crunchy than the spongy feeling of blm's. If you're ok, get any blm manual, possible 1.6 manual taxi version. nod.gif

hello, i plan to change my tyre for my SAGA FLX 1.3 2012. but im new in this tyre thing. any recommendation? budget is around RM 200/pc

And any recommendation on oil filter and engine oil as well? just finish warranty, will service car outside Proton SC, and plan to buy parts myself and send to workshop to service
*
Using Yokohama AE01, RM170/pc exclude gst n valve

Noise somewhere like Silverstone M3, quiet opt for Continental

Grip better than M3, somewhere like Vikings CT5, mostly due to harder rubber i guess..

Im whacking my campro with Tesco Shell Ultra...LOL... previously on BArdahl MXP Fully Synthetic engine oil, price around 120
