Yes, it is common as engine mounting is wear and tear parts for few years once time. You need to change it if your car steering got heavy vibration.
No vibration yet. But mileage 37k km 4 years now.Proton Suprima S V3, Slow Turbo.. Baru V3..

QUOTE(derrick1983 @ Aug 28 2017, 11:12 AM) I am guessing that I will not encounter any issues with the car throughout my usage. I will check the timing belt next year though to make sure if is still sound. I did the turbo hose last year at 26k km. Based on the ownership time, I should change it already. |

QUOTE(btuscy @ Aug 28 2017, 03:02 PM) for new parts from proton center is around 600-700 i think, but the after market disc can be bought at around 300-400 a pair..but so far cannot find anywhere selling after market calipers. I prefer you to replace it with new parts as it is regarding to your car safety issue. |

Dear all, I am actually looking for a used car for working purpose to travel to southern area always. Long distance always. So the suprima comes across my mind as I always prefer a drivers oriented car with fun n great handling. Fuel will not an issue for me, fuel is fully subsidised by my company.
But I have a concern on the och issue, has proton already do a recall to replace the hose to steel hose that they claim it to be a permanent solution? Because och burst seems to be very dangerously, also another issue is the radiator fan connector melting issue? Has this issue been resolved too? These seems to be some common issue that bugs the ss I suppose? Pls correct me if I am wrong, if proton rectified the problems above, then a used ss seems to be a very good choice to me! |

There is no permanent fix for the hose. Must change it every 40k km. Can do with normal servicing.But I have a concern on the och issue, has proton already do a recall to replace the hose to steel hose that they claim it to be a permanent solution?

Radiator melts? First time hearing of this. |

I see, I thought proton already do a recap, maybe that recall still undergoing planning only. 2. Radiator melts? First time hearing of this. Not fan radiator melt bro, the connect/socket for the radiator fan. One thing I would like to clarify also, last time I know there's executive, standard n premium spec. But now left only standard n premium, is true? Standard replaced executive spec dy? |

Not fan radiator melt bro, the connect/socket for the radiator fan. One thing I would like to clarify also, last time I know there's executive, standard n premium spec. But now left only standard n premium, is true? Standard replaced executive spec dy? So far I haven't run into such issues, but my mileage isn't pass 30k yet. I'd suggest leaving the car to run for at least 5 minutes with the air con turned down below 20 degrees and the blower running at at least speed 4 if you have been driving for a while. This will force the fan to run continuously until you turn the AC off, unless it's cold inside. In this case you just wind your window down. |
