Hi all,

Same thing also happened to my 2015 Iriz 1.6 Premium CVT. Few days prior to its failure, it showed initial symptom of unsmooth gear shifting. I have planned to send to Proton SC so I decided to made an appt and postponed to the following week.

My story: On one Sunday (August), was driving to Klang, shifted gear to "N" at the red traffic light. Weather heavy rain. Traffic light turned green, I shifted to "D", it suddenly slipped and gear shifting was very loose. Car didn't want to move forward (D), or backward ® because its last position was registered in "N". Can shift to "P" by using gear shift lock switch. Called insurance tow truck. Arrived 1.5 hour later. Tow back to home.

Got my nearby mechanic to assist, they manually change the gear position to "D" from the front hood. Once in "D", cannot shift to other gear position, otherwise will stuck in "N" again. Drive to the mechanic's SC since Proton SC need appt (that time was Selangor holiday) and need to arrange another towing schedule (very mafan). Mechanic helped me to disassemble the centre handbrake console. They found out the problem and insist to change the whole gear cable when actually it's only the cable bushing plastic has broken causing the gear level to disengage.
Below is the part number:
Cable Assy CVT (PW922758) --> Total damage with workmanship: RM250+ 

I checked online & proton thread that this is a very common problem among Iriz/Persona/Preve. Mcm very poor QC.    There are many video tutorial on how to replace this.

One sample video:

The solution to this is just replacing the gear lever bush (any brand, Daihatsu brand also can) that only costs RM10+.

So it all depends on the mechanic whether they wiling to help you to replace only the gear lever bush instead of the whole cable assy. part since the latter can charge more for workmanship.
Hope this helps. All the best.

Ugh just got the check engine light. And my car is jerking badly and losing power sometimes during acceleration as well. Haizzz. 1 year old car. Hopefully I can schedule an appointment tomorrow. Cannot call and book today also. Headache.

Yup. The car is in service center now.
When they saw my car, they automatically assume that the android player that I changed 2 weeks before is the cause, without checking anything. And guess what, they made my car worse. When I send them the car only the engine check light was on. But when I checked after a couple of hours, every warning in my car was on(esc, transmission warning etc) and the car is not drivable at all.

They told me to go back to the shop who installed the android player and change it back to the original player and then come back. I told them no way I'm taking the car that they made worse. I told them to fix it the way it was previously(with the check engine light on) or fully fix my car. The service and branch manager promised me that my car will be fully fixed. So now 2 days I'm without my car.

I'm pretty sure the problem is not from the android player but some other wiring from the car. The foremen also claimed that every major wiring for the car goes through the stock radio. Even the transmission cable. I'm don't have pro knowledge in car but seriously thats the reason? I also fed up ready. I've send them the original radio and ask them to fully fix it.

i hope so can start lah

gonna cost a hiroshima bomb if cannot start

just want to be ready /...in case.

ehhh ...i'm working slave in singapura

but car in johor 

Look behind the replacement part...you should be able to see where the clip points are...

Go to your steering, start video recording of it...then pry the clip points as seen on the replacement part...since it’s already broken, no worries on breaking it...

Then install the replacement part...stop recording and upload to YouTube...add link here...

Hmmm...can’t access the screws from the back of the steering wheel?

Guys..need help..my car cant start..its start nomally..then suddenly it died when i shift to D...now cant shift to P and the shift indicate still in P..cant start at al..shift lock button also cant use to shift to P..if i force it..may break the tranny stick...

Hi all, I just bought a used 2016 Proton Iriz MT. No car user guide available. Each time I lock the car, the alarm goes off. When unlock the car, no alarm sound. When driving, beeping alarm sound appears. Appreciate if anyone can share the root cause of the problem? Also can anyone explain the following fault icon  (refer picture)? Thank you. [attachmentid=11143467]

Thank you for the respond. Much appreciated. I solved the problem by accident. I SLAMMED the rear bonnet hard (out of frustration) and the fault icon dissappeared. All working fine now. Cheers.
