Hi guys,

Currently I'm driving 1st gen Persona
My current XM2 is dying soon. I'm looking for replacement. I'm quite an aggressive cornering/fast driver. I'm looking for something better like ps3 but this tyre doesn't have my size. Any other recommendation?

Saw that day Assurance Triplemax 2 launched. Might want to give it a try? Don't know on the performance part though.

can feel the acceleration abit slow..

What size do you use, I have tried Potenza Re002, Re003 and now using Conti MC6. All of these tyres have good grip for cornering, IMHO just the Potenza is noisy.

Does the FC affected?

go for soundproofing.

more or less the same i think..

im using stock size 195/60 R15
dont think i wanna change rim anytime soon, i'll stick with R15

thanks vos and inferno.

got it fix.

yup, its the plastic sheet behind the door panel.

they just sealed back the plastic sheet. no changing any parts.

but i'm quite surprise that all 4 plastic sheet giving problems at the same time.

yup door sheet problem same as your link.
mechanic also check to see if aircon is leaking.

Agreed.
Me also stick to it since now it's the most affordable choice.

Anyone know where can I fix this part?

Search for this on shopee
Proton Persona handbrake cover.

Or think can get it in proton parts centre PW844476

Has anyone of u changed before the seat belt ? Mine only 4 years , the driver side seat belt a bit spoilt starting to spoil already

I am finding that my aircond under the dash started to leak, is it easy to check the drain, I mean how hard to open and get to see the drain?

I would like to know about this too. My seat belt is very much damaged.


Not hard but need to Jack up the car to see if the drain pipe blocked or not.

What is the suitable grade oil for persona ? current mileage is 60k , using 10w40 semi synthetic now ... Plan to change to fully synthetic , is it worth ? Since i travel highways alot , is it better to use 10w40 although it's semi synthetic ? Since the car will be used to travel long distance most of the time, will 5w40 and 10w40 offer the same level of protection when the engine is hot ?

Ya the car manual recommends 10W40. Depends on your pocket, if u can afford fully synthetic why not? Im using tesco fully synthetic 5W40, RM80-90 during offer. I think both of them can protect your engine when its hot, just that for fully synthetic, the chemicals inside can last longer compared to fully mineral or semi synthetic.

Seat belt will spoilt?

How's the condition looks like?

been using 10-40 for few years now, so far so good, of course 10-30 the engine will be lighter
