Can recommend any authorized SC around Damansara PJ? I have tried many things before, and pretty convince this is wiring problem... |

QUOTE(lanux128 @ Feb 10 2014, 08:01 PM) i am not familiar with Damansara PJ area, maybe someone staying in that area can chip in with suggestions? Thanks anyway. For updates, I googled around and did my own CSI yesterday and found out the parasitic drain was caused by the lighting at the boot. Removed it and now it is ok. Got some inspiration from this guy here http://pimpmygen2.blogspot.com/2010/01/how...tery-drain.html |

QUOTE(laith @ Feb 12 2014, 11:45 AM) Well took it to the air cond shop he sealed off the outside air inlet port ( u know the switch on the dash that allows u to use outside or recirculate inside air) but later i realized the problem is actually with the cars shape . the rubber seals at the boot is not strong enough and thick enough to keep out the exhaust being forced in under high pressure when we drive. So instead of spending more cash i eventually sold the car off for a different car lol . |

Sifu, I got problem with my 3 year proton persona. Sometimes when I driving (don't matter city drive or highway), my car somehow like losing power but the engine still running.
Its didn't turn off but others like car lamp will blinking, air con/radio will off and on and my light of car meter will fade and come back again. All this happen together. I sent to PJ car centre before & they just told me the car fixed by reset the timing. But 4 day after the services, the problem came back. Ask my friend father who is mechanic. He said the problem might be wiring problem or purge valve issue. I sent my car to same service centre & highlight the issue to them. After checking, they said no such problem + they reset the timing again. My warranty almost done by next month. I afraid after my warranty KO, then they will ask me to change this or that. Can sifu help me on this? Other Services Centre recommended? |
