guys...really need your help here.

my persona elegance...today morning wanted to drive to work...when open door find some strong smell inside car.

then found out got water leaking/ stagnant at the carpet.

took out the rubber mat...oh boy the mat was pretty wet with water dripping.

the worst is the driver side and the back of driver side.
the carpet floor for both driver and rear driver is really wet.

the passenger and rear passenger side  carpet floor is also wet but not as bad as the driver's side.
anyone here got any idea what is the cause?

is it the door rubber sealant or the plastic water shield behind the door panel?

or is it the undercarriage?

anyone can help me out here?

if one place wet i'm ok...but to have all 4 carpet wet at the same time...i'm really confused right now?  rclxub.gif

open door panel then spray water see if water leak from plastic weather sheet area, very very common there...

Performance drop-in air filter, Lightened crank pulley, lightened cam pulley, 4-2-1 Extractor and full exhaust, Denso Iridium Spark plugs.. can increase around 12whp easily.
I used before.. somehow engine feels heavy after 4-5k km eventhough its a fully synthetic oil. never had the same issue with Castrol Edge Professional, Liqui Moly, Mobil 1. So i tend to avoid Shell brands.. Most of the original owners in the early days when PE just came out concur with the feel of it too.

BTW RM95 is dirt cheap, u can use this engine oil and change it earlier too, not necessary to wait till 10k km.

Changing engine oil frequently is actually the best way to clean your engine internals. Even more better than using Engine flush and all kind of stuffs. I change Semi oil every 5k km and Fully Sync every 7k km.

walao, ppl here using cap kerang for 17k km, you changed at 1/4 of its life!

Still relevant. Just that Denso got a lot pf imitation. So have tp be careful.

One thing i found strange though is the Denso Iridium i got from trusted spare part shop and Zordaq is totally different packaging (spare part shop one is common Denso packing, Zordaq one is Blue-green colour scheme packing).. According to Zordaq they're using Japan packed Denso Iridium which works better on CamPro.

Anyway the reason i use Iridium is because of the service interval. Everytime I change spark plug sure got ignition coil spoiled. So I pull it out less the less I need to replace it.
Yo bro, thanks for the advice!

i use normal proton sepakberak also change every 40k no problem. yours delay 5k to 45k should be no problem. i can bet 50k also no problem.

Ya, modern good healthy engine shouldn't chewing spark plug so fast, unless something wrong like rich fuel mixture or engine knocking detonation

Guys, i am experiencing jerking on my persona especially during low speed. I have sent the car to reset the ECU twice , cleaned throttle body, replaced spark plug , but the problem persists. Any solution to resolve the jerking issue ?
*
As mentioned previously, there workaround solution to your complain is... Change car! This is the normal behavior of our car to rev up and down during traffic jam slow moving maneuver, sometime the gear confused and reluctant then suddenly change, thus the "jerking". You can't accept this behavior then have no choice other than looking for another car...

I just checked the fuse layout plan inside the box, every each of the number there is none for cigarette port to my understanding. Will check again.

Got, are you looking at the fuse box at driver side, behind the front bonnet puller, near the throttle pedal area? I dislikes it's location tho...

ya, i gt all the 3 hose changed at protom edar. The top radiator hose was changed about 3 months ago at proton edar too. A few days ago, i just gt the other 2 hose changed. For the jerking problem , i was told that it's the petrol problem . Although i am using 97 most of the time, the car 's still jerking under low speed.  hmm.gif Already didnt clean the throttle body and resetting the ECU, but problem persists

What happen to the old hose? Leaking water coolant? Your car very low mileage couldn't be so fast water hose leaking.

change but not do preventive maintenance, deswai so lousy.
every year need to do normal service service. (change compressor oil, gas, receiver drier, expansion valve)
within every 3-4 years, need to do major service. (open dashboard, inspect / wash cooling coil, condenser, etc.)

change all the aircond parts systems and hope to last long, that is not a good mindset.
doing a preventive maintenance on your aircond systems juts like you do engne oil change, really do keep it last longer.

when car is even new, after  a year use also need to do service, that is most new car owners neglect.
*
confirm ac require maintenance? thought no refrigerant leak = cold = no need service? bruce.gif
btw, how much cost for yearly maintenance? any recommended shop?

so i buka the fan blower, wash the fan fins. buka the mesh filter and brush with toothbrush.
now ac fan blower is stronger, morning feels cold with compressor on-off in healthy interval. but comes noon fetching people will still feel the coldness inadequate. 1 thing i observed is when the car stop in traffic, ac will not cold. when start jalan the ac will be colder. i don't think is radiator fan as the radiator fan noise is still loud and audible. so was it compressor weaken?
