NEED HELP!!!
I'm driving a Preve Exective Manual. I'm glad that i bought this car and enjoy the ride so much so far.
However, recently i found out that it start to develop some noise especially when i release the clutch at 1st gear. Noise is heard coming from the back then to the middle of the car. It comes to me like the fuel pump is suffering is sucking the fuel in and instead sucking in the air that makes the noise. ohmy.gif
Another thing is when driving in heavy traffic, the car seems to be "shivering" whenever it comes to a stop. ohmy.gif Anyone has come across this problem so far? Please help!!!

proton savvy with a faulty wheel bearing after 6 months of usage mileage was less than 2k. loud grinding noise from the rear when you apply brake and car feels like it had reduced stopping power.
send back to Proton Service in Taman Megah, they couldnt fix it. in the end i sent to private mechanic and fixed it for RM 40. he showed me the wheel bearing that was faulty and explained that when i brake the wheel still turns as the bearing slips hence the grinding noise. quite dangerous IMO.

Haha, mechanic somemore?  My one done at accessories shop, the guy done within 5 minutes. But I kind of worry, the way they tap the cable. Like cut of the cable skin, then just tap directly, and cover with the cable tap. That's all.

Avoid the amt at all cause only mt can be considered. Driving one rock solid 5 year old savvy

Near miss on the highway from Ipoh to Penang. Avoidable if the car had ABS. Proton Saga 1991, going downhill, wet road, ~90-100km/h.
Two lorries ahead on the slow lane, one lorry doesnt see me (or thinks i can stop in time), cuts out to the fast lane to overtake the other lorry.
i slam the brakes, Tyres lock up. no communication between steering wheel and tyres. The Car keeps going, downhill towards the ass of the lorry. Luckily i lifted my foot off the brake, while the steering was turned to the left. The car jerked to the slow lane, and i quickly brought it back to the fast lane. Everything happened so fast.
There were 5 people in the car (including me). The ******* lorry almost killed us. But i blame the car more, coz no ABS.
