QUOTE(travis_ckf @ Sep 8 2007, 03:31 PM) Today i did saw a potential gen2 facelifted and the new BLM on the roads, and if u asked me, i think the BLM (black prototype) will sell coz it doesnt look that bad! Tok cock only. Called Proton-I-don't-really-care to let them know my complains for 1st service 3 days before i go to SC and they promised will inform SC and follow up closely yadda yadda. When come to SC, SC say no such thing received from HQ(this is a big branch, not dealer), then SC advisor continue to give me grandma story about using semi-synth oil/full synth oil will cause my engine to have noise and void warranty yadda yadda.Also in the petronas station near my house, i saw proton i care opening a small booth for car servicing and the response is good. From what i see now, it is a huge sigh of improvement from proton on commiting after sales to their customers! Told ya Syed Zainal can bring proton up! Ops back to ur persona talk E-mailed to Proton-I-don't-know-what-u-talking-about regarding their expert SC advisor and no reply yet from them. Ho hum. |

Hmm, these SC always come with alot of problems. Honestly i dont really bother with warranties these days. Its easily voided and sometimes these SC will give alot of reason just to not giving u warranty. I only go for warranty if there a major part change which may make my car immobile. Other than that, i stick with aftermarket. E-mailed to Proton-I-don't-know-what-u-talking-about regarding their expert SC advisor and no reply yet from them. Ho hum. |

Other than that, i stick with aftermarket. But the problem is, if u don't go to them for service and with no authorized SC dealer service record, they can NOT entertain your problem. Also depends on car lor. Since mine is a Savvy, aftermarket products is very few, so hafta go back to them for service in case of (touch wood and kayu), major problems. |

They can always say ur installer installed the rim wrongly, causing disparity to the disc brake parity which in turn causes misalignment to the drive shaft and thus causing gear timing to be out, overheating the gearbox and then further overloading the engine and thus your car exploded.already went to klang to check out some rims...considering to put a silver or white since my car is white...15 inch range around 700-900...yeap... regarding warranty i have no freaking idea....maybe change spring will void..but i dont think changing to a same size rim will make it void?...will it?...

Well i felt its more realistic for warranties for the engine, gearbox, power window and etc as those parts are very expensive to replace. If they include wear n tear parts (air filter, spark plugs), of coz its not realistic as this will bankrupt the company even faster. |
