guys, how much is the fuel filter? thinking to replace mine this few days. Thanks.

what is the tyre size of persona?

Ok this one will be long.
My 2009 Persona started giving me problems a week ago. It went into safe mode (CEL came on and cannot drive more than 30km/h) I switched off and started it back up, it became ok again. After googling most people say that it's the O2 sensor so I ordered online and waited. Throughout the week that happened again a few times but went away after I restarted. Today I have the O2 sensor already and wanted to change during my service but the car went totally dead on the road. Refused to be restarted. Towed to the SC and they plugged their pdt, but no response from the ECU. After a while they eventually told me I have a dead ECU, a new one is RM1k. Saw a few second hand ones online for about RM500 to 700. I don't know if I should repair it or not. I don't recall the ECU got wet or anything under there. I am puzzled as to why it got damaged.

Yea. I decided to get a used ECU. RM450. But the car is stuck at the SC so I will just pay them labour charges to replace the ECU. Now waiting for the ECU to arrive

Is someone can share something for me?
If we pour water onto the windscreen, did you check which way all the water go?
My believe is the water should go into the hole that drain all the water behind the fender. My test this evening, some of the water overflowing between the plates of fender and body, making it enter the engine compartment excessively, just on top of the absorber mounting, both side. Checked my friend's persona also like that.
Now we are wondering if that normal which I don't think so. I am afraid under the heavy rain, the water will flow into some wiring parts and moving parts such as pulleys and belt.

Just drove to and fro Melaka and Perlis, about 630km a way and speed was at mostly on 110kmj to 120, 130 to 140 for a short period when overtaking the vehicles only. Petrol is roughly about RM80 a way in real consumption from point to destination point. FC showed 7.1ltr/100km.

Any one encounter after engine off, the fan still running for 10-15 minutes itself before off?

My car is 5 yrs old. The power streering fluid has never been chnaged. Should I change it ? Mileage is 65000km now. Should I gt the timing belt change as well ?

I found there're 2 variant of Proton thermostat... 78'c and 82'c, which one you using now? 4'c temp difference got huge effect or not?
Actually I'm surveying low temp thermostat, but very rare for campro engine. Wira Mitsubishi got a lot low temp thermostat selling in market.

Yeah. The ori one is sponge. My mech strip off until i can see belt naked inside lol. Thanks for input guys.

How about buzzer? Can i replace from other model?

Anyone got any suggestion on the soundproof to the door wind sound? 

Bad luck, gasket melt due to overheating   

Need to spent thousand plus to change the necessary parts and perform top overhaul on it. 

Hi old birds, I’m intend to buy a proton persona 2009 h-line from my friend, it has 140k+ mileage and it looks quite new from outside to inside as he seldom drive it.

But there is rattling sound from engine when we open the hood. My friend said it was the IAFM Campro engine valve noise which is common and not an issue, after he consult a mechanic few years ago. He also said the max speed is 150kmh on highway only. He is a super slow driver so he didn’t care.

As I confirmed to buy from him, just asking does anyone know what’s the issues and cost to solve it? Thanks

Here is video for the sound.

Hi guys got some questions.

I just replaced suspension parts(absorber, mounting) but my car still has clunking noise(dub dub dub sound) on the front when passing through rough road/uneven road/pot hole. What could it be? Tie rod? Ball joint? Bearing? Car on 230k km now.

No idea cuz not my car.  Just helping my friend. So next service I will nddd ask foreman to check tie rod, ball joint, lower arm and suspension link eh? Should change all?

Any idea what is the price for rear lower arm?

Hi all, my car when free gear not moving I pedal gas, the engine got delay for a second before rpm go up, and when I let go the gas pedal, then engine also got delay (the rpm still up for a second before coming down).
So I wash the throttle body, pedal gas is a lot better with nearly no delay, but let go gas pedal still the same has delay. Anyone know what’s wrong? Just wanna know before I send to workshop to check, thanks

Nope. Better let the mechanic do....

u can adjust the steering to feels light or heavy as it uses hydraulic but for electric don no

Control your tyre pressure, want light pump 36psi, want heavy feeling pump 27psi.

thanks, but I think it just prevents the car from dropping too much during compression stage.

Worth trying tho, will give it a try next time
Just to update everyone:
Just spent around RM700 (RM140 top set+560 labour) for top overhaul of my Proton Persona.

I had queried earlier on the reasoning why my coolant levels kept decreasing (every 2 weeks top up 1L, been doing that for years). Finally know its because of head gasket leak, it wasn't obvious as my engine oil color was still normal. But foreman said last time he guessed that the coolant was being sucked into exhaust but could not give a confirmation. He recommended me to just keep topping up water since its been ongoing for years.

What caused the nail in the coffin was me flushing radiator/coolant (using radiator flush bought from auto shop). I guess when it cleared all the rust and stuffs, maybe a hole was opened bigger or something.

Radiator coolant ran dry just after topping up and driving for 1 hour+, this time it seeped into my engine oil and it turned milky. Engine overheated and couldn't start engine afterwards, thank god it died infront of my trusty workshop if not more $$ spent on towing. Only 3 cylinders was working and it was misfiring like hell before it died.

thanks man

Hi. Just got my Persona maybe a couple of weeks ago. Starting to hear the whosh whosh sound when I'm driving. I would describe it as the sound when the window is slightly opened. Went to the service centre for the first service and told them about the issue. The service advisor told me that the sound problem had been fixed. However when I was driving just now I still heard the annoying sound! Should I go there tomorrow to ask them to replace the whole rubber thingy they claimed had been fixed? The 10 year old car I have been driving before never had this problem before. This is really unacceptable.
