i dun think cannot fix the fuel cap lo. doesnt seems like anything broken:

do this:

loosen the screws, align it then screw it back.
bend the latch a bit to accomodate it also.

where got same. my one is silver then black.
davidmu's is black then silver. tengok baik baik ^.^


Added on November 10, 2008, 6:32 pmi think tap water is not recomended for radiator lo. i think get the RM1 battery water is better. maybe need sommore research on this. I think the reason is, tap water is full of minerals and will react with the metal part in the radiator. battery water is de-ionised water which is relatively clean. even better if can use distilled water.

anyone try 'diamond' water? hehe. i think will rust faster as it got more mineral and is more 'reactive'
*
yerp. doesnt look like anything broken but yes, its cannot be fix.
they did everything possible except loosen the screws, align it then yada yada. better replace new 1. never tot my fuel cover is so fragile. sweat.gif

nvm. since they willingly replace it for free (but need to pay for paint job since its not under warranty) what ever la. i dont want to think abt it. sigh. sad.gif

btw, read in savoc got 1 forumer put tap water in his radiator & end up temperature increase. and yeagh tap water can oxidized our radiator easily. i tot bro hyper edy mention it?

weh, can u guys access savoc.net? i cant.

sc want to make money. u know they have set the 'package' in the system.

I went to Cose in shah alam before. the guy recommended me the 20000 km package, cost about RMMMXXX including labour which cost about RM80. ok fine. since i want to strict my budget, i take out some of the parts in the list which left the oil filter and engine oil. (oil is free). i was shocked that they still charge RM 80  for the labour to do just a simple job.  sweat.gif


Added on November 12, 2008, 7:24 pm

dunnolah....I use tap water ok jer. even the RS expert also say ok. i still maintain the coolant level. I use coolant bottle only.

but using battery water lagi better cos it will not corrode the radiator metal.

but i will monitor the results smile.gif
*
erm.
if i remember correctly using tap water later on ur radiator got some kind of mud or mendakkan sort of. hehe.

QUOTE(neurra @ Nov 12 2008, 08:02 PM)
wanna ask.. my car got problem.. can't seem to access savoc.net right now as it's under maintenance.. ok so the problem is:
my car's speedometer sometimes shows and sometimes it drops to zero, and when it's at zero while the car's running, car jerks horrendously at 2500-3500k rpm..
this is not ignition coil and magnetic speed sensor problem as i've changed them both.. the jerking happens only when the speedometer shows zero when i'm driving..
do i only have to change the gearbox speed sensor and it'll fix the problem? i'm confounded by the solution because, if that sensor at the gearbox fixes the speedometer in my instrumentation display panel, why can it fix the jerking too? does the ECU directly read the gearbox speed sensor? then why the need for magnetic speed sensor (the normal sensor which i think most savvy owners have changed)
*
if not mistaken, i remember that if probs relate with speedometer drop to zero got to do with gearbox sensor.

try clean it. if cannot solve, change new one. this is what i remember la. only do this thing.

well yeah, every sensor connected to the ecu/tcu supposedly.

maybe it need both readings from tdc and gearbox sensors thus if one failings jerks occurs. sort of.

is urs amt?

for amt i think gearbox sensor very important woo. they need rpm n km/h readings from meters. to determine what gear should it use. i think. blush.gif

Thanks man.

I finally found it. It seems like it is dangling in the middle of nowhere underneath there! So i just unplug it for the time being.

It won't affect my breaks right? Just no lights right?

thanx bro death nite.

i tot we on have 1 tdc sensor. correct me if i'm wrong


Added on November 14, 2008, 9:26 am

cos he quoted that his car jerking at second gear. tu lah get confused.

so i'm tot that's one the 'common' speed sensor that need to be checked.
*
got 2 if not mistaken.

if jerking, check ur tdc sensor.

if speedometer drop to zero then jerking, check ur gearbox sensor.

thats the symptom i remember ler. hehe.



QUOTE(Matrix @ Nov 14 2008, 09:29 AM)
Just sent my car to a nearby shop to fix it. less than 1 minute kau-tim. Basically that thing is loose and not put in it's correct place. Charge me RM5 only!

I think i already noticed something funny with the rear lights b4 it gets totally weird. This happens after i sent my car for the spindle recall recently.

Must be Proton chekai mechanic didn't do a proper job of putting the switches back in place. doh.gif

Really, the Mutiara Damansara SC sucks....also the people like looks very lan-si wan...like we owe them money or something. Also many times the SC staff didn't report my complaints down properly. Bunch of jackarse. And MD SC is suppose to be "Platinum SC"...yeah right... Unlike P2 SC (near the Sin Chew Jit Poh roundabout in PJ)...all very friendly staff....thumbup.gif

Proton can tok cock about i-Care yadda, but in the end, it's still the same.  doh.gif  I dun think i'll be sending my car back to proton after warranty over!!!

Is there any better Proton SC around PJ? Please share!

mine not yet change rear bearing. haih~jb no stock. damn. doh.gif

my family + my frens keep saying this to me:

1. aircond very cold
2. back row can feel aircond effectively
3. engine very silent when idle

i wish i can reduce engine sound during high speed.

but tomorrow will change to new set of ignition coil. as a result of the so heavily rain weather nowadays...
