Is this car a good 2nd hand buy? Gearbox sedap? Thinking of getting 2nd car after Honda City..

Guys, where do you all replace the OCH? Is it must go back to SC or outside workshop will do?
Another question, how to differentiate inlet and outlet pipe?

I've done changing och twicem both at SC. First time was I kena och burst and had to call a tow truck (I was clocking at 50k km then), and second time was when I do 100k km service.
I think you would be fine if do at either SC or outside. But I suggest to change it when you are doing a regular service so you change the engine oil at the same time.

Hi everyone,

Just asking for opinions. Sorry if the questions are noob

My suprima is already 6 years old, got it in year 2013.

Sent it for full check-up at Aiman Motors, one of the authorised dealers for proton. The engine is getting louder, rattling dashboard and the suspension feels a little hard now.

They say I need to replace those things

1. Engine mounting set
2. Lower arm both sides
3. Front absorber
4. Module sensor

They say, it would take up to three weeks for them to get the spare parts from proton.

My question is, would it be faster and cheaper to do it at COSE? I don't really like COSE because normally there are just too many people there and it would take a long time for COSE to service my car.

I have had good experience servicing my car at Aiman Motors, so was just thinking to ask them to order the parts and send my car again in three weeks.

COSE should be much faster, but it depends on stock availability as well. Cost wise might actually be lower than authorised, but maybe not by much.

Since your car doesn't have warranty already, it may make more sense to get the parts replaced at reputable workshops such as Zordaq Motorsport. They sell genuine proton parts and the labour cost is much cheaper. They may even be better than doing it at COSE assome of COSE's foremen/technicians don't really check their job quality.

You just need to make an appointment with them.

1. Engine mounting set - get the entire set replaced. total cost is within 5xx if I'm not mistaken at Zordaq, all genuine parts. Apparently replacing the top two only without the bottom two will reduce their lifespan.

2. Lower arm both sides - What is the vehicle's mileage now?

3. Front absorber - Get all four changed at the same time. Just buy original proton absorbers for suprima as their price is almost the same as the ones sold by spare part shops. Zordaq also sell genuine absorbers.

4. Module sensor - What is this for? Parking sensors?

Mileage now about 130k. Front sensor, back sensor, reversed camera all not working anymore.

Btw I see all your comments promoting zordaq. Sorry, but is that your shop or you work there?

Nope, but they do a lot of protons, so they're a safer bet if you want to have your proton car serviced or repaired. I just happen to say it more frequently cause I don't know any other shops besides some others that I go to for minor jobs.

All right. Will try to go there. Thanks for the recommendation.

My Suprima's Head unit keeps saying force stop when I try to play music from my pen drive. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to reset the system?

Finally bought the tools to remove the rear caliper pins and brake pads to lubricate them. Buying two wrenches would cost about RM12 but in the end I bought 8-24mm (14pcs) for RM24. I'm just short of 13mm and 15mm wrench. The 13mm is for the caliper pin screw and 12mm to loosen the handbrake cable so that you can open the caliper. 15mm is for the caliper pin itself just incase it rotate when you tighten the screw. There's a brake fluid hose and handbrake cable attached to the rear caliper. No need to remove the hose or cable just loosen the handbrake cable by removing the 12mm screw holding it. The caliper pins is quite short with no rubber attached to the end of it. Looks like the grease already turn black and dried up. Remove the old dried black grease with old cloth. Apply Toyo Australia - Brake Caliper @ Rubber Grease Fully Synthetic (RM24). Also cleaned the brake pad clip but can't perfectly clean it forgot to but metal brush. Put some grease also on the clips and brake pad ears. Sand the brake pads also. By the way the rear caliper is TRW brand.

Will see whether it'll stop the squeaking sound. Before that I just cleaning the brake disc with WD-40 brake cleaner but improve a little bit but still have the squeaking sound from time to time.

Finally changed all front and rear brake pads with TRW brand DTEC model. Looks like the squeaking brake sound is caused by defective original Proton brake pads . After so many years of suffering hearing the squeaking brake sound which can be easily solved by changing the brake pads .  Before that sayang ma to change the brake pads still thick and hardly used.

How much did it cost to change front and back brakepads?
