engine oil - rm99
oil filter rm 13
air filter rm 50
brake fluid rm18
spark plug rm 76
coolant rm 12
labour itself is rm 70....

As expensive as kaka...
engine oil rm99...it has better b semi synthetic...Mach 5 mineral oil around rm60..
Coolant rm12....
Air filter better get those life time K&N 1, no need change anymore..
but the most ridiculous 1 is always labour charge..u r lucky kena rm70..mostly is rm100..
that's y i don want go proton sc anymore.
RS auto is located opposite Puteri Mart, bandar puteri puchong, which road i m not sure lah..5/3 i think...

i think its ok. rm70 for every 10,000 km act as insurance lo.
some of us got 5 year warranty

i only know im super broke lor. well yea, the oil is semi synthetic...
RS auto is good? wont slaughter ppl?
i heard from the proton sc ppl 60k service need to change the amt oil (something like that lah). that one also exp.....

yea yea..actually i think stated in the manual 40k need to change amt oil? I mean flushing the oil ? around 2 bottles of renaultmatic amt oil costs about rm100 somethin ar..don remember the price.

hey everyone, can we bring along our coolant that bought outside to PESC when doing service?

How long should we change the coolant and what brand of coolant do you all normally use?

Thanks.

my front left headlight bulb has burned.

anybody know what type our headlight bulb is? H7?

is it true we need to change both bulb left and right?

easy or not to DIY change the bulb?

h7..cost rm30 in sc. no need change both.
happened to me.

very easy to chg... chg urself if u want... but won't be expensive if u chg outside or sc...

yea the uncle say no need, he say still can use no need change woh... taht oil is 30 + for 1l, need use 3 bottle.. so that would be rm100 like dat dy..

hey guys. if i plan to buy a used savvy amt, what problems should i look out for and is there any specific batch having any specific problem?

what year car would be better to buy? looking for something +/- (preferably -) RM25000.

Basically it's the AMT itself... check if he service the amt gear oil in time... and check his knowledge about the car... like put to N and pull handbrake for stops... amt pump overheating... jerking problem... etc etc...

never safe to buy a second hand AMT...

Yup... But saying that wouldn't be fair to current AMT users tho...
Good AMT users should deserve a better secondhand value...

Actually, it's not safe to buy first hand AMT either.

AMT=Automated Manual Trouble.

I've seen the spare price price list of the AMT last time....can't remember where...but it was around like 20k??? Can't remember, but definitely 5 figure price...i'm not sure if it's true...better not take the risk...or you better ask at Proton and ask them to show u the spare price list for the AMT b4 u buy...nanti kena heart attack.

erm. then could i know what kind of problems to look for?

are there any common problems that have not been resolved?

Like everyone else here already mentioned, the biggest and possibly only major problem with AMT Savvy is the AMT itself.

Other common problems? Power windows? Yeah still there...but not so bad. My Manual Savvy is nearly 2 years old this coming October. So far, no major issue...but it's quite low mileage..only 21K so far.

Some common Savvy problems, which i have encountered are:
Car jerking in low gear - Sensor or throttle body problem. (Mine has sensor replace once or twice).
Stupid seat belt problem (can't pull it after you wear it...sometimes like that, front seats),
Power window - switch replaced once.
Rear right door - cannot close nicely. A lot of savvy has this problem.
Petrol cover - cannot open!!! **&%$ This is really stupid, when your car runs out of fuel and you can't pump petrol! I use a 20 cents coin to flip it open....so always have a 20 cent coin ready somewhere! But it was fixed since the last service @15,000 km and still working fine now.
Rear lights on constantly - this is not common problem...somehow the switch underneath got loosed, no big deal. Just plug it back. (But i can't manage to plug the thing underneath the steering wheel and have to send it to a nearby workshop who charge me RM5 for it...LOL.)

I might be wrong, but i believe the ACTUATOR are the parts for the robotic arms. There's 2 parts from the list above...
RM 8,226.41 + RM 13,918.09=RM 22,144.50

GULP.

Awh85: Maybe you can check with Proton whether this is the AMT robotic arms.

But if you really wanna buy AMT no matter what.....it's better to buy new with 5 years warranty...if you buy 2nd hand AMT, take note the Extended Warranty DOES NOT COVER TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP and only applies for the original owner who bought it. Yeah...i read all the details in my EWP certificate.
