About the small dent, it might happen when you driving and got small stone hit on it.. And I don't think it becase of the material that they used to make the car..

First, the SC you visit have poor service.. When I get my LMST, it had some minor problem.. I bring it back to the SC near my house.. Yeah.. They so efficient.. AC control problem.. Done within half and hour.. And it had alot LMST is waiting for them.. RM27k LMST is kinda problematic.. MOst of my friend get RM27k LMST, sure bring back to SC to fix something.. And now they was happy and no problem at all.. WHile my LMST suspension die after 3 month.. After change the suspension by my own, I had nothing problem with the car.. Feel happy and the car serve me well..

exactly, my complain is not the LMST, for that price, i've told my sis to be wary about some minor problems when she get the car. the thing that i would like to highlight about is the SC service, worse that it is the one in Glenmarie. They should not have juz brush off their customers and just tell them to leave the car overnight when it only takes them 10 minutes to fix the problem.

p/s: can't find the receipt that i promised earlier, so sorry guys.

I just want to know, what does LMST stand for?

Anyway, why don't you try COE? Should be better kua? Also, did u make an appointment or just walk in? If you made an appointment then they ask you to leave the car there, then can complain kaw-kaw lah. Maybe u should call Proton i-Care to complain?

Make sure you complain!!!

My old wira no problem at all..served me well..hope now my waja no problem..pray hard.

look how lousy is proton's remote control, always fail me.....
look at the malays work, how they solder the ICs...

lol just change new

Given a choice, I'd stick to the non power window aka manual window for the saga.

PS. After so many years, no one has made a mod for some other mechanism of power window lets say mod from a toyota or something for the saga?

ermm okie, here's my share, i have proton iswara which i bought bout 2 years ago

it all started on the very 1st day i got my car,

1. my aircond wasn't cold so i had to bring it to refill the aircond at mechanic

2. aircond there's supposed to be something u can turn so the air would blow at head level, or feet level, or both....i changed to head level, but it blows also from feet, i turn to feet level, it also still blows from head, i turn to both, both still blow, means,.....its useless u know because i drive without shoes sometimes, and if it rains, my feet becomes so cold until it almost cramp......i went to the mechs, they say cant do anything......if want change must change alot alot

3. aircond wind blower (there's many sticks that allow you to choose which direction to blow the air to, whether left or right) okie most of the pedal wasn't put on properly, i had to manually remove the whole cover, and slowly insert those pedal into the right slot so it could be turned properly

4. The turning knob on right hand side where u can put left and right signal, or turn on light,off light and high light, that mechanism is kinda broken, its like when u turn it, its so loose, it doesn't have the tick tick sound when u turn it to on/off light....

and couple of days later

1. i found out my car doesn't have the warranty book and i cant find the sales agent anymore

2. it doesn't come with the tools to change tyres (jacker and other equips) which i think normally comes with the car

3.my car seat makes noise when i drive

4. my brake makes very loud sound when i brake

5. my whole car makes some squeek sound when the road is a little bumpy, feels like the whole car could juz split into millions at any time

6. my left hand back seat door, has some vacuum power, which makes it very hard to open it, if you're a child forget about opening it, and if you're an adult, it takes alot of energy to open it

7. mine is not the sports edition where u have extra sport rims, so mine are actually plastic covers, and the plastic covers juz drop off somewhere i dont know and leave my rims naked, the 1st to drop was right hand front rim, and then some days later, its left hand back rim...now i have 2 rim with plastic cover and 2 without

and within 1 year

1. my power window is abit sot plug, meaning sometimes can open sometimes kenot open....really frustrating because sometimes i need to pay the toll and the window cant open, its really problematic

2. my wind blocker (the thing that's attached outside your car which is somewhere near the top of the door, both front wind blocker flew off because its not sticked properly

3. my front mirror had a cracked for no reason, its not because of stone because it started from the most bottom part of the mirror and when asked, they say its normal for proton cars......

well thats all i can think of now, sorry i couldn't attach any photo because at that time i didn't bother to take them, but if u want a view of my car, hahaha let me know i'll show u if ur not too far away

LMST = Lotus Meter Saga Trim.

the meter is lifted off a Lotus Elise

anyway, why are Proton's remote keys so inefficient? they use 2 BIG batteries that konk out within a year!

my dad's Accord keys only use one small battery, which konks out in 3 years.

I strongly agree.
FYI , I have a wira 1994's model. 1.3GL. During mitsubishi time. Until now,
door handle = work properly for 13 years
front power window=never changed still in good condition
the only problem i encounter is .. the car roof, can 'shen chin chun tou' pimple on the roof.. where the rust comes out. =.="
Mechanics told me, 1st batch car were like that . sweat..

aircond front panel backlight last time can auto off on off on even u on it.. but now... it seems to be ok. car seat can make sound when u drive..
erm.. wats more.. yeah, there is a lot of SCREWS coming out from no where... it just dropped out .. n i cant figure out where it belongs... oh sweat..

Good or bad ... u guys decide. I hve no comment.

P/S: I keep my car mostly under the sun and i drive it everyday.

Fuel consumption.. RM50 for 300KM for a small town.
OLd cars, engine oil leaks.. gasket problem
the spark plugs.. lives shorter than usual new cars.
hmm thats all i can say.

Just wanna let u guys know. Sharing is Caring.

Haha.. Try other SC lor.. Poor SC will make your car die fast.

Aiya.. Can't complain much de la.. Go change another remote control or alarm system only lor. Hehe..

My 6 months old iswara, change power windows switch for 4 times already!!! 6 months already change 4 times!!

Going to 1st service this friday for my Savvy.

Got following problems which will complain:
(1) Squeaky clucth...which i DIYed and kau-tim with some WD-40.
(2) Petrol cover damn hard to open since day 1, i think my wife will scream if she tries to fill up petrol...there's no way she can open it...me myself have to hurt my fingers to open it.
(3) Some rusty bolts behind disc brake.
(4) Front passenger seat belt...sometimes cannot pull (like locked).
(5) Some mild squeaky noise coming from somewhere recently...not sure what or where.....but maybe i try to emptied out the stuff from my car and monitor again.

I hope at least they'll fix the petrol cover problem, that's the major problem so far...can't open petrol cover to fill petrol is no small issue when u run out of fuel!!!......so much for TUV.

My Myvi nearly 6 months now...except some rust in the rear door hinges, it still runs like day 1.

Let's see how they address my issue....or will they give me the standard answer..."Biasa-lah Bang....Proton!!".

=======
Updated:

I called up Proton-I-care and let them know my problems and asked them to highlight the issue to Mutiara Damansara SC.....so that the issue is recorded down at HQ....

I think that's what been advised by the Star recently...on how to get good service from your car SC....call up the HQ and have it recorded down so that it is follow up......can't say "don't know" already.
======
Updated 7/9/07:

So much for Proton-I-care. When i asked the SC, he said have not receive such message from HQ...3 days cannot pass a simple complain message? Don't they have that thing call COMPUTERS in front of them?? So much for "we'll follow up with the SC and ensure the problems are addressed to...blah blah..."by the I-care service staff.

No point wasting money on advertisment, nice orange I-care cars, nice new uniforms, when a simple thing of passing a message (it's not even a major complain), can't be done in 3 days.

I think i'm going to write in to the media and just let them know it's another waste of tax payer sponsored money.

So dissappointed....cheh.



Looks like it's Proton-i-don't-give-a-damn.

I juz bought a 2nd hand 99 Satria GTi....
only have one problem since i got it....
The front part (floor where u rest ur feet) of the car shakes/vibrates when i drive....
Anyone know wat's d reason?

Proton I Care = Proton I Don't Care. - wasting time & credit only

Hmm my year 2000 Wira auto got the following probs:

1. Car rattles/vibrates a lot when it's set in "D" and the car is not moving, or moving a bit.
2. The aircond thing (to adjust where the aircond blows) spoil, only 1 vertical bar moves
3. When there's at least four average weight people in the car, it's very hard to avoid the car from getting scratch due to road bumps.

Any ways to solve these problems?

The stock remote sucks!

at what speed?

My persona batery FLAT after 2 day receive car.....

when i ask, mechanic said its normal same like Gen2 expecially HL model with CAPTOR.

my waja left handside power window always go problem. another never be happened around 3 years.. just left handside. passenger sit...

anyone experience this b4,

when before service at service centre the dashboard light for all working, when out form service centre, the "D" light is not functioning while others are okay?
