I think the ABS system not related with the piston break. The ABS light on will only DISABLE the ABS system, but u still can do the normal braking system means without ABS. Coz the ABS light on could mean the sensor dirty, sensor cannot align with any another 3 sensor, sensor faulty & etc.

If ur workshop got computer then u ask him to plug in the computer for u then u will know which 1 sensor give u problem. But the computer checking will cost bout RM80.

What you mean shop with computer ? Like how ?

I would say the FC is damn bloody good for a 2.0 V6. Try comparing it with a Cefiro 2.0 V6 and then you'll know what is the meaning of FC. Parts ain't expensive, you have to know the PV6 was selling at above RM 100k when it was new so the parts is gonna be a little bit higher than your everyday Wira or Iswara. Try looking up to buy spares for an E36. Sorry bro register999, i think you have to understand what your brother is driving and also look into what cars you're comparing it with.

P/S Do you guys know that my PV6 FC is the same as my other Wira 1.6 Auto. Go figure lolx !!!

My Father's Perdana v6 has just clocked 100 000km in 11 years today. The car is still in great condition.Many ppl complain about Perdana's gearbox, in my experience, for all the 11 years my family have been driving the car, there's not even a single gearbox problem.

Overall, this car rocks to the max smile.gif
I've also attached a picture so that you guys can see the condition of my perdana smile.gif

11 years and your car only drove 100,000km is a rarely driven car. I guess maybe it's used to just go to fetch children to and fro or maybe work to and fro. Furthermore i don't think the car's engine is really utilized as less than 9,000km per month mah. Actually the GB problem is there even in Mitsubishi days, not a Proton problem. The ATF have to be change and maintained well if not surely problems. My PV6 is as old as yours and have already clocked 250,000km hehehe. Previous owners change 2 gearboxes due to not maintaining it frequently as well as heavy usage. Now i travel about 5,000km monthly and my GB is still ok but i maintain it every 20,000km. Just my two cents smile.gif

i now have atf cooler installed and i change atf every 20k and atf filter every 40k. So far so good after 1 year and i whack around 4-5k km per month covering northern and east coast region. But i'm going to change my car soon not because of the problems of the pv6 but i just wanna get a new car smile.gif My advice is dun play pick up and drive like an F1 driver and you'll be ok.

As for gb jerking, that means your gb already having problem lor
