Yes, I have experienced this multiple time. In my case, they suspect leaking at the cooling coil. Few workshops quoted me around RM500+ for the fix. I haven't fix it until now, just topup the air-cond gas once in every 4-5 months.

For a long while already my fuel meter reading not reliable. Most times start up the car will show as empty, then maybe drive a few km sometimes it update to be a bit more accurate (sometimes not). Is this fixable/cheap to fix?

How is your fuel meter reading going? I have the same problem for the past 2 years and haven't fix it.


I have 2008 Saga BLM and encountered two issues currently:

1. Sometimes, usually in the morning, when I release the handbrake, I can hear explosion kindof sounds. Quite worrying. Any thoughts?
2. My driver seat cannot be adjusted to front and back. The reclining is still OK. How to fix? Normal kedai accessories can help?

Thanks!

1, Is it coming from the exhaust or rear brake?

Likely the brake shoe gets stuck if left over a long period. Maybe the pump, shoe or maybe just simple adjustment to the mechanism.

Note that I don't have much luck with my Saga rear brake either. Have change almost all parts but I still get squeaky sound in the morning.

Hi everyone need advice on my car. Saga year 2016.

There is an oil leak from the oil seal.
Proton says they sell one whole set with timing belt. I changed mine around 2 years ago. So I prefer to just change oil seal.

Then outside shop says they check first if oil got on the belt then also have to change whole set. Is this right?

Anyone has the same experience?

A bit of oil on the belt is not an urgent matter, if alot then different story.

For a piece of mind and if the price difference is not too much, just change it together because they need to remove the belts to change the seal(s) anyway.

I just use normal spark plug for my BLM. Around RM 40 - RM 50 (4pcs). Just make sure to change every 20K KM.

I only use semi-synthetic engine oil. When it was under warranty, SC don't recommend full synthetic, and I follow until now.

Rm1xx Iridium plugs might be fake plugs, becareful to make sure it is original genuine, if non genuine it doesnt last long and hv higher risk the electrodes may break aparts in the combustion chamber causing havoc, FOC piston with hole, screwed up valves and engine head...
Mild case when replacing the plugs in future the plugs easily break off, the lower part stuck at the engine head, need special tools to remove the remaining plug from the engine head.... heard expensive labour charge for such removal
I used normal copper plugs and NGK TR6GP Platinum plugs b4. Platinum plugs priced around RM60-70, last 40k km, you can consider..

Engine oil wise, been using fully synthetics since 20k km - 353k km (car sold)
from Petronas Syntium 1000 at SC to Bardahl MXP, Castrol Magnatec, LiquiMoly Toptec 4100, Shell Ultra (imported), Shell HX8 (imported), Dynolube (not too recommended unless very2 cheap), Petropenn (got it free from my BIL) lastly Mizu 5w30 & 5w40 (cheap just need change it earlier 8k-9k km)

Syntium 3000 if genuine why not...
