My experience, Tesco/ Lotus silicone wiper works better than Mr Diy Silicone wiper. Wipe properly and last a bit longer. But if bought Shopee mall one, the silicone wiper works much2 better. Regular 4S Silicone wiper here

saga vvt mc2 using Aisin gearbox right? This one cant check ATF fluid level correct?

I find this car damn not user friendly for self-maintenance/checking..

Example:
1) want check cabin filter condition cant unless you have tool to open the nut
2) want check ATF level/condition cant also

just an additional cover needs to open with 1 bolt from youtube video I saw.

yes 1 bolt and 2 clips.. which is kinda stupid.. so you cant check your cabin filters if you're out and about..

and not everyone have the tools for it either.. cabin filters supposed to be something easy that even women able to do it themselves effortlessly but now they cant..

god damn just now i met up with my younger sibling and wanted to help them check overall car condition like engine oil, atf fluid/brake fluid and also their cabin filter condition to see if it needs changing then found out about that absolutely stupid design and couldn't do it.. so now they need to purposely go to workshop to get it opened cause they dont have the tools..

so end up i can only check for them their engine oil and brake fluid.. so damn stupid sia.

It depends. If im Proton/ SC, this is my money pit to customer. Rm60 filters change for a rm10 part is good business. Once owner want to DIY change the ac filter, saw the cover, sure turn off to proceed.

My saga cvt vvt Reverse Camera + lcd rosak lao anyone know how much to repair

Halu bos , power steering fluid use what fluid ya ?

SP3 can ?

Or use Dextron 2

Besides, anyone encountering rubber band effect suddenly getting serious? it is like the clutch or cvt hard to engage, mostly happen when the car accelerate after stopped.
saga vvt prefacelift 7 years old
changed cvt fluid every 20,000km

Recently, my mum's MC2 (YM2023, 1500km) started showing some unusual behavior. On 31/12, the engine light came on unexpectedly after a cold start. I checked around the car and didn't notice any fluid leaks, and the engine oil level appears healthy. However, while idling, the radiator fan runs at full speed. At the dashboard, the temperature gauge shows 3 bars.

I’ve booked an appointment with SC, earliest slot available is on 13/1, but it’s quite a wait. In the meantime, I tried removing the TCM fuse for 5 minutes and then putting it back in (read some FB posts saying could be something to do with TCM?). After restarting the car, the engine light turned off, and all went normal—so I assume this reset the system?

Everything seemed fine for a few days, but today, the radiator fan started running at full blast again. This time, the temperature gauge only shows 2 bars, even after driving for more than 10km.

Is this normal, or should I ensure I visit the SC on 13/1 to have it checked?

Do you mean Proton use proprietary or non conventional screws for many parts to deter DIY?

bolded yes for the cabin filter.. which supposed to be one of the easiest things to DIY in a car.

But scumbags at Proton decided to put a cover and lock it using a bolt so that you need to have a socket wrench to open it..
Even regular spanner/wrench cant open it due to the way they design it..

Then they charge you RM59 for a freaking cabin filter

I guess you need this cup shape spanner to cup that bolt in this case?
