OK. Forgot to mention that the guy that did my car said he used to work at 'cars' (some auto grooming centre perhaps) for 8 years up until becoming s/visor before doing his own business.

Wah so very very shinning liao cool2.gif on my previous car it cost me nearly RM500 to wax and polish, including the clay thingy.. and this took me more than 1/2 day to complete. but they're using Meguir's product la.. got warranty some more

I also got pantang one, everytime wash car must hujan after that sometime during wash also suddenly hujan don't wash car aiya no hujan la..  cry.gif  anyway, I'm still waiting for the SC to repair the windows problem they don't have the stock right now need to wait 'till next week so for the meantime passenger at the back can't wind down the window..
*
Actually after polish+wax, the car is easier to clean. Just spray water and wipe. No need soap/shampoo as the surface are 'silky' smooth... brows.gif

QUOTE(futobuta @ Jul 26 2008, 12:49 PM)
If u r afraid of 'sounds', then i suggest u steer clear of Waja. Because of all the Wajas I've been into, most of them got 'extra' sound. Hehe. It's like that one lah. Doesn't mean cars of other make don't have such problems. Maybe Waja more frequent saja. Hehe.
*
Atleast those SC should already know how to fix these kind of problem. Waja has been around for about 10years.. sweat.gif

QUOTE(gofey @ Jul 26 2008, 04:00 PM)
after seeing everyone complaining with proton QC, i believe i better send back to my own panel workshop. the panel workshop is good, providing good service to my kancil currently and my waja also will be sending there too.

btw, once i got car , im going to put auto timer inside =X
*
Why you wanna put auto timer? Better straight away put RSM. brows.gif

QUOTE(spacepilot @ Jul 26 2008, 08:28 PM)
Anyone elses indicator also the same as us.

Today really bad luck,.. I scratch my car bumper against the wall at the parking.. bloody parking access really very narrow. cry.gif  Deep scratches on the bumper. Don't how much to fix.. really pokai already this month. sad.gif

Save money and go for custom bumper... whistling.gif laugh.gif

QUOTE(spacepilot @ Jul 26 2008, 08:51 PM)
mine are just minor issues that could be solved easily.

If you are looking for car that looks more confident for others, stay away from proton.
After I bought this waja cps, everyone will ask me why I buy waja not vios or city... which made me quite irritatting. shakehead.gif
But quality wise... proton really need to improve especially very obvious are the plastic material finishing and the paint quality.
But again, 60k range for a car that has the spec like other makes that cost over 100k.. could think about it.
How bad could it be? Its not like when you drive halfway and the steering wheel will fall out  doh.gif  biggrin.gif
*
I think Proton (Waja) plastic materials are better than Vios. icon_rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(spacepilot @ Jul 26 2008, 09:46 PM)
Which SC is this one? This is bad attitude for him who say it.

Outside workshop is better than them, bcos we all knows the Authorised SC people have limited skills.
*
Agrees.. they only know if it stated in the service manual, for other problems.. doh.gif

QUOTE(futobuta @ Jul 26 2008, 09:49 PM)
Well, I've tried both official Proton SC and outside shop. The main foreman at the Proton SC was good. Just that he didn't have much freetime to 'concentrate' on my car alone. Everytime also have to leave my car there for the whole day. But it's free lah. Now with the UR bars installed, can feel the chassis more rigid, but start to feel the absorbers not stiff enough. cool2.gif

Straight upgrade to adjustable suspension. drool.gif

You don't have to worry about cooling down your engine before turning the engine off. The radiator fan will keep spinning even after you pull out your keys to cool it down (after a 'hard' driving).

aiyahh....everybody is complaining laugh.gif  laugh.gif too bad i have nothing to complain..... hmm.gif  i think mech at SC is lazy one(not all but most)...n their boses know that client will keep coming as long as there`s  a new car registered on the road(proton)...but what i want share here is...all car manufacturer facing the same problem...even if honda,toyota or merc. service after sales is not really satisfying...bcoz...its build in the country..ppl here seem not really cares.. doh.gif but to members live in kl i suggest to come over to my sc at pandan jaya...there service is quite ok...forgot the address but will check n post the address later... biggrin.gif

Wat adjustables do u recommend? Today I'm going to the exhaust shop to get mine adjusted so that i won't hit on my UR rear lower arm bar whenever i go on large humps (tarmac, not human rclxms.gif ). Now, i can see the white UR bars from the side, front n rear of my car. Wonder if i should get some bodykit to cover it up. Actually, it does look kinda neat with the white colour standing out compared to my dark blue body paint.  rolleyes.gif

Donno which is good, never use one before. But I heard that GAB is quite nice. nod.gif

I also been thinking of putting bodykit to hide the metal undercarriage metal at the side.

Do, things must do the whole set lah. No point buat half-half only. That day whole set UR bars also makan me 2k liao. So, might as well invest more on nicer suspension.

Not half-half, but mod in stages. I prefer this as I can notice each mod benefits in performance, and also cause no money.. tongue.gif
