Yup. The vibrating sound. I’ve tried removing the engine cover and try to pin point to common parts like tensioner, belts. I guess I need some professional to do it as I’m not skillful enough.... Just want to ask around sifus here on this problem..

Bought engine mounting kits, after install will tell whether the rattling disappear or not.

Yeah just done changing mountings. Problem solved. RM350 include labour.

Mine also no more rattling now.
But labor charge as RM150 is it too expensive?

All engine mounting parts + labour only RM350?! Was it genuine proton parts? Where is the shop i want to change also

This brand. Not really heard of it. I do it in Perlis. It was 350 for all. I’ve been told the labour charge is 12 if you took your own parts to them.


Recently my car just got overheat once during my highway cruise. Stopped by and checked. There’s water leaking from radiator either tank or radiator. Keep on dripping. I opened up radiator cap and there’s a lot of rusts inside. Just want to ask do you guys usually flush away the rust after servicing? Just wanna get them repaired and not replacing them

Now after change the IAFM unit, the fuel like a bit not smooth and consumption really high, is this normal?

If you want to keep your car then I would advocate you to change it, don't forget to do full flush and refill using either pre-mixed coolant, or dilute your coolant using distilled water only.

Might need to check on your water pump and thermostat for rust also, as the fin might be damaged by rust as well.

If you don't plan to keep it, just service it and trade in.


How's your idling rpm? If idling rpm high then might be some vacuum leak that you need to check for.

I was thinking could it be the flap stuck in short channel so it behaves a bit like old gen2? Try bringing it to highway speed to activate the short channel and reduce speed to make IAFM change back to long channel. But this is my 2 cents la...

Otherwise it's just your ECU trying to readapt to the new manifold. Give it time to learn?

OMG, my foreman uses pipe water + coolant.

Normally whats the mileage to do radiator coolant flushing? I done it on 100k mileage lasst time, now its approaching 200k km already.

I change my coolant when I change timing belt. No need to headache. One shot do. Lol.

But some others might change it in longer interval. After all it's very individual.

Ya, it's actually need time to adapt to the new intake manifold.
Now seems okay d after highway cruising this afternoon.

Hi guys. Just wanted to know if previously i service my car using Synthetic oil for 10 years and now I wanted to change to semi synthetic due to i rarely use my car compare to previous usage.. Is it will affect my car performance? For this 10 years my car doing just fine no major issue so i'm afraid if I do the changes it will start buat hal..

how much is the driveshaft?

I don't think so.
But of coz the smoothness of the engine might a bit kacao only.

baru tanggalkan tinted headlight. apa kaedah untuk tanggalkan residue/gam dan untuk kilatkan balik headlight? terima kasih.

i'm afraid using kertas pasir sanding is the only way.
I've used kertas pasir 1000 > 1500 > 2000 > spray clear coat > polish > wax to "renew" my yellow faded headlamp.

i'm using fully-synthetic, replace the oil once per year only due to low running mileage.

Me too after my intake valve adjusted, I can feel fuel consumption a bit higher but can't give how much higher it is compare to the previous. But from fuel estimate reading, 7.1l/100km for highway is still good to have.

Any particular reason for you to adjust intake valve?
