Well yeah my old car didn't have one, but when reversing close suddenly hear a deadline, you also scare right?

Taking it in to SC tomorrow to let them see whats wrong or change it.. Cause its now delay + deadline, but since that day, no deadline now.. But still better safe than sorry.

drove on NSE from Tangkak to Shah Alam.. a lot of Viva and Axia on right lane driving like nuts. i was on 120 on the middle lane..salute to them la. not scared one

anyone replace the orginal key for Iriz before?. The Key case has broken up. The plastic component inside falling apart. I never drop this key, the keycase design material is like shit. My father went to ask for the replacement key from proton, they quote it RM500+ for the key and it is not under warranty cover. Anyone replace the key from third party before? I went to many key maker, they counldn't do it.

Replaced @ CoSE for free within 6 months of car purchase.

the car already 3 year old, early bird purchase. sorry what is CoSE?
500+ for a key replace this is insane

is it push to start? push to start is expensive due to sensor. meanwhile the manual key is not that expensive i believe. if your is the manual one then i need to stop drop my key then. i drop it quite a lot

is manual key, not push start. i never drop the key, when u turn the key for a long period of the they case material degrade eventually it will falling apart.

wow really?? damn that cost a bomb. how about trying to find 3rd party who can do it? maybe they also need to change the sensor in our car hence the expensive price?

Mine broke both keys and the spare long time ago. Yes, the case design is shit. Stress point hold just by little plastic piece

There are times when you about to twist the key to start they stuck since the steering is not properly aligned to locking mechanism (i think), then of course you accidentally use more force that time. This will contribute to braking the key case sooner.

Did drop an epoxy glue at the screw and top gap but on hold in very short time before broke again.
Using rubber band many times but always end up losing it. Even at SC they also use rubberband only when I send for service

Next try I want to put hot glue around the case edge see how it hold.

I check with few 3rd party key maker, they couldn't do it. something have to do with the sensor.

same problem. yes definitely stupid design. make the key case try to look "high end", but the material is shit.
why dont juz make the key seperated with the remote. charge 500+ for a remote. they think they are BMW or Merz? lol

read on Perdana review, that the key design is too cheap

yeah i read on fb, key is quite expensive to replace

any idea on other cars key replacement cost?

beemer and merc cost 3x - 4x more than that. i used to change my father merc key. price rm2000++

omg i donno about that, so the key replacement price is acceptable for local car like proton?

Ship back to Germany

Proton ship back to China?

not at all . the thing is merc and beemer got sensor for unlocking and sensor for unlocking the steering. basically sensor for everything with 1 key. if the sensor not match, it wont start. meanwhile proton....sensor for unlocking only. we still use key. so i think its a bit expensive. 200 is max. but u know how factory item works. they will charge us kaw kaw.

no need to ship back, proton almost certain own by china dy . what will happen to us?

off topic, china car maker haval car quality not bad actually. i been in H2. seriously, i would consider the car. wayy better built quality than us. just that the durability, reliability and brand dunno good or not

Haval toward SUV as new ads shows. Seen few at OTR.

Hope these brand give customers best experience.

need to find who's the vendor..hmm

You do realise newer proton cars have immobiliser built in right?

Even the saga flx has a rfid chip in the keys.. without the registered rfid chip, engine does not crank..

u can buy new key fob.. just transplant the rfid chip that comes with the old key into the new one..

Even the first gen myvi has an immobiliser built in the ecu..

Mine replaced due to faulty button. Using spare key now but they wouldnt let me change because still working. Just repaired it since it was semi faulty. The manufacturers admitted to me before during one of the proton shows saying that initial design was faulty and they have fixed it already.

definitely is the design flaws, i'm not sure now. already sent it to fix. now i even tape the spare key.
i dont push the key back to the side anymore since the spare key case also can feel the wobbliness, but now hard to put into pocket
