I've asked the SA to give some better tint voucher, they provide me Multiguard tint brand. Is it good? the price is RM 500++. I guess it should be a decent tint.

Let wait and see after i get my car.
For now fingers crossed


Happy English New Year 2009 to all Persona owners!

huh..rm55?...me 4liters also RM110....

Happy New Year!! Newbie here.

I am planning to get a car and currently thinking of either a 2nd hand Honda City (preferably facelifted Oct 2005 model) or the new Persona (HL or SE). Any feedback or advice is welcome.

Also, can anyone recommend a good Proton Edar (not EON) to purchase the Persona around PJ area? I would prefer branch and not dealer.

Thanks

If u asked me, Honda City or Proton Persona/SE, I will say, buy Honda City lorr.. and don't come back to this topic

For Proton Edar to buy your Persona... why ask? ha3x.. *kidding*

It's not the shop that will give you good service.. it's the SALESMAN... try the Taman Megah branch there next to LDP.. I bought mine over there.. very nice salesman... better than the 1st branch @ Kajang which made me waited 1 month for nothing.

P/S: Happy New Year 2009 to all

apahal, thanks for your comments. perhaps it may not be an appropriate question to this thread but i just thought it does involve the persona, my bad



I have been to that shop too. I do agree that the SA seems to be quite helpful. I have personally blacklisted the Mutiara Damansara branch cos I feel the SAs there are quite stuck up. Went there once to try and test drive the CPS Waja when it launched but left the place with a bitter taste in my mouth. Imagine not being served after being in the showroom for 20mins! Not a single SA came over to ask if I needed anything. And the best part was that the showroom was not even packed. Got fed up and walked out and told myself that I will never give business to Mutiara Damansara branch if I ever buy Proton. (Sorry if out of topic)

Any Persona SE owners here who have tried to swap the Waja rims to the HL/ML rims during purchase? Is it possible?

W'come. It's d price to pay dat matters

Mutiara Damansara is the COE 'center of excellence' stuff watsoeva.. ha3x
They already tired due to lots of customer want the excellent service..so, they are proud to introduce to you some of their not excellent service lorr.. *kidding*
next time, try tampal RM100 bill to your head when walk into their showroom... MAYBE their attitude will change.. or else, don't even bother to go there lorr
I prefer going to small2x place for cheap2x stuff... most of them are sincere salesman who are more than willing to help me find some cheap stuff.. not to forget.. some might con you... so, back to the basic.. it's what we called as LUCK.
but, for proton, the car is great.. lotus handling maa.. very nice. But, it's after you bought the car that gonna make your rambut gugur because the service center sometimes was very lousy... again.. it's LUCK... if you hate to play with luck.. pay the price and get Honda or Benz or Ferrari... I'm sure you'll be happy

cheap izzit?

btw, its delphi brand if u wanna know

Wow, RM208 is pretty good deal. I hear 20k service is also around RM700 if done at SC. 40k serivce RM208 is good deal! And of course we get to choose better motor oil unlike at Proton SC...


Yes I must say, 7k RPM is very, very high.

Rm55 one may be dexron II / III, not suitable for the proton car. Proton uses mitsu gearbox, get the SP III diamond or ori proton SP III, if get from spare part shop, oni rm21 per liter.

Persona SE auto transmission owner here, just had my very first service 1.4K, brought my own engine oil mobil super S, total charges RM53.85, might be more expensive for the next service. Complained about my passenger side door hard to open from inside and outside, hah! they did adjusted it and it is easier to open now. and my steering wheel, got noise whenever steer to left and right, they are ordering and going to replace the coil spring as it is under warranty. i want to know that whether i need to do balancing or not due to my steering vibrates when accelerated around 140km/h, but that time was driving on uneven road highway, never try driving on kersas yet (even road) ... feel wasting money to do alignment and balancing if it is normal...

show some pic bro...

my Persona SE!!

Waaah! Very few SE I've seen on the road. Love the cruise control + leather seats

Guys, both my rear seats are unable to be plugged firmly. It also makes an iritating squecking sound. Argh.. waiting for my next service (10k) before asking them to fix the prob.

hey guys, can recommend me any good Proton service center?
coz i just went for the 1k service at the Puchong SC, their service damn sucks... booked the service time at 9am, but i collected my car at 6pm something...

looking for another better service center ahead for my next 5k service..

try bukit serdang world care car centre which is proton service centre at sri kembangan. there almost 90% mechanics are chinese, very good and efficient. send my car to service 9.30am collected 11.30am. all complaints i mentioned they did checked and fixed

the one im using is delphi brand, the one tht one of the lyn forummer selling, but not from him, as he sells more exp than ma fren... so u judge whether mine is fake or not...

ori proton atf fluid, sori to say, but for me, is rubbish... better get other atf fluid.. tht atf fluid cant stand higher temp, wth r they selling

"Centre of Exellence"? Isn't that the one along the Kesas highway towards Kota Kemuning? I thought the one at Mutiara is Platinum Centre or something like that. Anyways, platinum or not, it's in my bad books already.

hey guys my persona mp3 doesnt seems to be working as i tried burning these mp3 in the disc using a differents type.. as in without folder in the disc and also tried with folder.. all s not working.. i only cd error..
btw my car is m-line. and it is stated in the proton website that mine definitely comes with the mp3 features..

Wooah.... Congrats magnum! When did you place the booking for the car and how long did you have to wait? I hope that I can also be a Personarian soon too.
