Ok.... Tumpang tanya.
Thinking of getting a Waja CPS (Manual) to replace my 10yr old Wira 1.5 (Manual).
Since most of u r Waja owners, can share with me your experience ah?
After so many years in the market, the Waja still got reliability issues ah?
Finishing ok ah? FC ok?
And another thing.... why proton's car loans's interest rates are so high one ah? mad.gif

you make a right choice to buy waja thumbup.gif welcome to the club

Thank u thank u.....
hey, do u think i need to do tinting for the car?
Since Waja's glass has slight tint, how do we calculate
the amount of additional tinting which we still can add on
to the car? Takut over tint.
Steering lock.... perlu ah? No time to go to accessory
shop to look around... working everyday.

i have no choice, i have to tint my car. my car is dark in colour and it's very hot inside.
the slight tint you mean, it is mean that when you buy the car, it comes with a layer of tint film already?

my case, i don't want the tint film by proton, which cost 1k++ and i tinted it outside myself. smile.gif

steering lock or gear lock, what ever you think it's necessary, you can buy but waja comes with immobilizer, so if you try to start the car by shorting wires or what, it will not start one.

The new Waja comes with anti UV glass... something like that.. has slight tinting effect.
And it's with immobilizer too. Think I will just get a steering lock.... safety purpose.

which means, it is normal ah? the rattling and squeeking sound?
need to go to service centre to rectify or not?
i'm worried of the cheap plastics, after numerous dismantling,
it will be loose ... thus MORE irritating sound. blink.gif

The sound from my car seems to be coming from the back... probably the board where the speaker is.
Dunno how to solve it.. will try to consult the service centre tomorrow.

just live with that...honestly nothing much u could do..
owning a problem free waja is like kena toto.. ha ha..
even if u manage to solve the sound, other sound will pop out later, specially those squeking sound..
so pump up the  cool.gif  and enjoy the ride..  doh.gif laugh.gif

Yeah.... but will go to the service centre anyway, because my boot needs to be slammed
really hard to get it closed.. want them to fine tune it.... and my front passenger door.
Anyway, when can I really rev the engine 'a little bit' higher? now, tak berani press more
than 3k RPM.

I ask my mechanic to dismantle the whole dashboard to check, u know what he told me?
He said better don't later the problem become worse, our waja dashboard panels are not in one piece like Myvi, it's part by part so rattling sound from there is normal he say..  happy.gif

That's what i am worried about lor. Dun wanna let them dismantle this n that...
Worried that the problem will grow from a small one to a big one.
Can't expect too much from a Proton anyway. But i am quite impressed
with the Waja..... after driving the wira for so long already.

Went to service centre... adjusted my boot.. .now able to close very smoothly.
Only thing left is the boot's light. Doesn't work.
He said there's something wrong with the wiring... needs time to check.. so
i said next day first lah....
Went to do tinting... AirCool..... cost me Rm888.. wonder if it was a good deal.
the side n back glasses are fitted with its new security film... front one, normal
AirCool one lor.... Not bad... quite cooling.

They don't provide u with engine oil during the first 1k service right?
In that case, we buy n bring it there for them? or do they sell it
at the service centre.....?

First 1k i buy oil from them, they are selling shell only so no choice..

That means it is better for us to buy n bring it there for them?
In that case, which is the best for 1k service?

You mean during slow moving(parking, house area) or during normal cornering(50-80kmh)?

Most of the time, during average turning speed.....
Sometimes slow speed turning also got.
