Actually, that seemed somewhat right. I remember I drove outstation alot, and I drove hard. I remember there was minimal to almost no pinging during that period. But the car now is just 100% city driving, alot of traffic light. So I guess there is no chance to rev hard and burn off those carbons unless I do it idle. But there is a rev limiter that cuts off at 3k RPM.

Just to share my experience on claiming insurance in Proton edar.
I have a Persona and thought going back to Proton for insurance claim will be better since they use genuine part.
Long story short, Proton Edar 4S Chan Sow Lin didnt do the repair. They sent my car to somewhere to repair. I have seen it with my eyes where my car was driven from outside to the service centre when I was collecting my car.
When I questioned the insurance department guy, he said "kita ada dua service centre, satu kat luar, sebab sini sudah busy, jadi hantar ke service centre kat luar tu".
I highly doubt his honesty.
Upon collecting the car, the car is full of (at least 15 stains) bird poop etched into the paint.

I suggest you to send your car to your mechanic shop. They will do everything for you, including the jpj, take police report those. Not to mention the good workshop can get your car done in less than two weeks.

Technically, PESC CSL did not cheat you. The one you sent to is their Service Centre, where they only do scheduled vehicle service and minor corrective works.

They will still need to send to PE Body & Paint for the actual repairs and there are not that many of them.

I'm forced to send it back to Proton for the repairs due to the 4 years remaining warranty. I hope it doesn't take too long and that they can arrange a replacement car interim.

Isn't it thanks to security tint instead?

Ur tranny is MT or CVT?

All modern windscreen is constructed of three layers, two layers of glass and a middle layer of plastic.

It is crazy dangerous if windscreen will shatter upon impact.

CVT :'(

No, it's not.
Proton Edar Chan Sow Lin I went is the one in Sungai Besi, which has been upgraded to 4S centre just half a year ago.
I purposely chose to go there because it's a 4S centre.
Edit: Besides, the guy that drove my car back to the service centre and his colleague did not wear Proton shirt.
The insurance department guy also said, kita ada dua tempat. Does it mean that there is another Proton Edar Chan Sow Lin that the public are not aware of and have no access to?
Every time i wash my car, I see those bird poop stain, really upset about it.
Anyway, just wish u good luck with your car.

Hmmm...well, as long as original parts were used and your warranty stays intact, then should be ok...
Thanks, need lotsa luck!

Cool, will try BHP on the next refuel.

I wonder if Proton provide free tuning to existing Iriz users since they refined the new CVT gearbox

ask few sc, they said not entitle or available for my unit.
someone share in FB certain sc that provides the service to update the CVT.

call them, said need to pay, forgot how much. proton sc still not systematic like honda

Still need time to streamline all the dealer i guess

guess the software not released to SC yet ...considering they haven't officially launch the new Iriz

those sc which has those service can gain extra profit if proton said the upgrade is foc.

Problem here is that Proton is closing down their own SCs...

Most is being replaced by 3S dealers which on one hand improves response time, but increases costs on the other...

Proton did open their pricing to these dealers, but most still abuse by recommending their own supplies citing no stock from Proton

Official reply from Proton FB...no instruction yet

i am iriz 2015 owner.may i know can i change to iriz mc1 exhaust system which have quiter exhaust sound?anybody know the weight of iriz premium original rim?

Unofficially u can drop a call to that sc which provides the cvt tcu upgrade, with a cost.

Based on the feedback, most said the cvt perform better, less laggy feeling.

Sorry I forgot which sc, but can search probably in iriz, preve fb group.

Iirc last time seri kembangan sc was the most famous sc cz easy to claim warranty, plus u able to bring your own engine oil. With a warranty of coz. Nowadays not sure.

Thanks for posting here.

Finger crossed there will be an update for us.
