for tdc = hard to start even after 5-10 time crank.. dirty sensor or connector.. just mod the connector.. cut of the old one n straight away use clips n solder it (DIY techky - send to RSauto in puchong rm30)..
for coil = stutter n not smooth ride.. can diy if just plug cable @ replace with iswara(plug cable head only - normally one cable prob).. savoc.net got how to do it..
for trottlebody = 2nd gear n 3rd gear jerk at low rpm.. just clean up the dirt with kerosene @ silicone grease spray also can.. open airbox, unscrew 4 screw then carefully clean up the carbon n oil sump inside the trottlebody..
thats some of problem for mt n amt..
amt = sudden change/gear stuck / indicator lite up.. protection system that stop @ jammed the system when the system overheat.. some said wiring, some said the accumulator diaphragm fail so the system got dirt n jammed.. talk to proton mechanic.. said that every 40000km must check the amt pump n robotic.. just that they lazy(this is why it doesnt appear in the manual book) to open n check it.. haha..
u wanna buy new or 2nd? if new no prob.. anything happen just send to SC.. they will replace the tdc..
if 2nd, just prepare what i just put there.. its all the normal problem for mt/amt.. thats the major prob..
ready for small2 one right what i kena.. my starter kaput.. sometime the lampu kaput also.. can solve this using VS = voltan stabilizer..
for the tdc, if bout the hard to start yes for until the sensor kaput.. the renault expert said its because of the connection.. RSauto is one of renault expertise shop.. if u go there, only renault engine.. no other engine.. hehe..
mine already put there in my sig.. nearly 4 year already.. i think the previous owner like to crank the car when it cant start thus making the starter kaput.. its my bad luck the starter kaput right after 3 week of using the car.. if within first week, free repair from the shop that i buy..
u're from where? if in malaysia got special promotion now, 5year warranty /175000km.. so nice if any prob just go to nearest SC..
well, knowing the problem make u more prepare.. so u wont be fool by the shop/sc.. thats the idea of community.. to share info n helping each other..
*any CRU / NRU here? we're planning for a TT (teh tarik @ meet up) at PD (yet to confirm) on 28 june 2009.. can join if u want.. at least we savvy owner can share n know each other in real world..

neo much sportier.. but please take 1.6 if u wanna buy neo.. 1.3 underpower.. not enough sport maa.. hehe.. later other laught at u one..
its lil bit small (the roof only less than 4cm if i'm in neo).. compare with savvy which have lotsa space above my head..
ya, do ask them bout the 5 year warranty.. the lite? take the white one.. so nice n rare.. later can make up.. but u have to live with no power window (can mod later mayb).. some u can add later.. 35k n the neo rm48k.. so much different.. how come?

well.. its depend.. some said how the car react on how u use it..
take care = less problem.. if always abuse the amt n only service (change oil) didnt do anything else = yes u will throw all your money away for repair.. yes this car need fully caring.. all the sensor sensitive.. you must check n service all the sensor every 10000km.. add the amt system should be inspect every 40000km (unofficial SC staff recommendation)..
just solve my problem.. its not the starter, just an add-on relay kaput.. change it n my car start like a charm.. only cost rm30.. glad i go to RSauto before buying starter..
well, the basic design must be taken from animal la.. since proton also want to be like p2.. klise, kancil.. so now tortoise la..
today = savoc PD gath.. savvyian join us if u around pd.. sure can spot one.. >8 car n got savoc stiker.. come n chat with us.. mine as i mention blue tortoise with cru85 sticker.. hehe..
so normally it depend on 6 month / 10000km service interval is it?
when i purchase my car at second hand dealer already ask the tauke there to change EO using shell hx (semi-syn).. thats on 30 mei.. so another 6 month is....... nov.. wow.. thats after raya.. good then.. rm100 to spend later(75+25 for the filter -dunno ori or not-).. need to start saving.. raya summore..
selamat hari raya to all muslim savvy owner and lowyat forumer.. hehe..
wow.. so many discussion..
me still with 15" rim.. wanna opt for a new rim later.. see if shop ask me to change.. mine already so teruk beaten by the previous owner.. now my tyre thread all four botak tepi one.. scared me.. so bawak 90kmh only all the way back to melaka from seremban.. isi rm20 can go up till 250km.. normally like that.. cause i seldom tarik til 4k.. normally 3k or 3.5k only.. hehe..
so any shop you guys wanna recommend in pj/klang? well.. at least another 2 month then i tukar the tyre n rim..
