hmm..my old wira was good..tip top condition. Tahan lasak. No noise, no stupid clunking steering sound, no bad radio reception. But have to sell it off as the current price is still good. Few more months will become RM5k already...hahaha...almost 10 years old lor....

Proton car is ok, considering the price lor...Persona is good, despite all that stupid sound la.

I tried all fuel before. BHP, Mobil and Caltex not so fuel efficient. Petronas still give me the best mileage. Shell is ok.

Hypro, how do u drain the 250ml engine oil by yourself?

haha this is bcoz b4 this, i alwaz fetch my gal from kl-seremban.. summore alwaz travel far..

now im married, less travel long distance, managed to get this 55k mileage for 1 year n 9 months period.. if not, its already 70k+ mileage whn reach 2 years...

hmm i dunno if above 50k mileage can get good fc, but mine can get good fc if travel non stop.. meaning i pump full tank n drive till my tank empty, non stop, 100% hi way driving, no brake stop brake stop at traffic light..

yesterday was from kota bharu to bahau seremban, ngam2 around 500km then my fuel light indicator turn yellow..

campro alwaz known for its good fc if u travel on hi way coz of its happy rev engine...

n im using magnatec 10w-40 only..

4-2-1 is good for auto, nuff said..  4-1 is for manual.. most otai n sifus recommend this setup..
yup, can..

some of gen2 owner already put tht fpr, ask gen2 thread for more details...

fpr hmmm.. how shud i say it... fpr tuh untuk setkan minyak masuk.. can manual set the fuel if u wan more fuel or less fuel to b consumed...

example, our car hav already got default setting for the fuel usage.. this fpr can b used to manually set the fuel.. better hav expert to tune it for u..

tht gauge is juz to monitor the fuel pressure

no, the fpr is good actually...

example, if u chg ur exhaust system completely, for sure u hav done sumthing to ur car right? by tht time, u can say u hav chg the exhaust not to its default setup with ur car..

maybe u nid more or less fuel to make ur car can b on its full potential with ur new exhaust setup...

its slightly useless imo if u use fpr without modding anything to ur car..

thts y i said nid the expert to tune it for u.. if u set less fuel than ur car nids, thn gg to ur car lor...

ow...interesting...will buy those equipment n follow ur 'precious' instructions...thanks alot.
at least can use 3 times...hahahah...
thanks again.

can we bring our own engine oil for the first 3 services?

Well, my reason using for 3 times is because I will ONLY go to proton sc for 3 times, after that, to hell with the proton sc...of cos I will keep those things for future usage..hehehe...
Thanks alot, Hypro....

dear all,

I went to a trusted mechanic recently, he informed me that proton ppl told him that campro engine needs 4 litre of engine oil.
Anyone would like to clarify this?

I also tried what Hypro suggested on how to use the syringe and rubber tube to suck out the engine oil. I found no place to put in the rubber tube, be it at the engine cover (where we pour in the engine oil) nor the oil level indicator (a pipe that is inserted the min/max steel indicator) at the engine.
How would Hypro do it?

Thanks.

thanks for sharing guys..

i made an appointment at COE this coming monday..
hopefully can solve all the major problem..especially the IAFM..
in the 1st place..i also don't know...
i just complained the car sometimes hard to start...& the engine loud sound (like old diesel taxi)..
check whether your car has those symptom or not..

noisy engine..."klonk,klonk" sound like some said its sound like old diesel or old taxi engine sound... ...lucky mine is 1st batch without iafm...no problem..even pickup not good...

its normal..impossible IAFM spoil when its new....mostly is the engine fan sound....normal thing...even old mercs also sounded louder...but important factor is interior quiet

just double check ur AIFM, some kinda rod hv to replace. mine had same problem, noisy. but now all is good.

Cheers!

bro.. still got one more type of.. GoodYear..
for my persona.. I choose GoodYear..
I get RM 500 discount and RM 300 discount for Tint Master
for the Tint Master promotion only available for M and H line..

yar..i also using WIRA...when the car is new sure got many sound but now is 4 years already some of the sound is gone..but proton already found out many problem in wira and solve some of it...but Persona still new...just 2-3 year is market (pls correct me if i'm wrong) sure there have many problem they not yet found and fix it...more over now persona order is high..for sure the quality is bad...      

why i say sometime some problem we dun want SC to fix it due to SC is cannot fix your problem and create more problem to you except you ask them to change a new part...change a new part should be solve some problem...if ask them to fix.... then i can say no need lah......  

they cannot repair my WIRA power windor since 1st day until now moreover make my power windor broken (cuted one bar support) in the  power windor... when i send the car to workshop they say cann't help me already due to they cuted the support....that is my sad Experience in SC...at the end i stop my last 1 year Warranty and no more send my to proton SC....

so now only can base on this forum and found out all th problem from the persona or gen 2 sifu-sifu to help us solve the problem...

.. those digital stuff not that accurate one la ...
my friend drives a wira which have a 50L tank .... after his indicator is up, he can still drive for 80km .. not sure how many he refill though ....
break the fear, one day try try drive 35km more then only refill ... after that slowly add to 40km, 50km ...

u mean the center indicator will blinking? ?? never tried before ler....

u ada pump air in2 ur tires or not? ?
many ppl jus worried thier car's fc everyday till neva notice 2 pump air~
