Questionable Proton Persona Build Quality

Wake up! Proton! Please wake up!! Your quality drop again! And now you did it just before go into mass production!

Meter panel quality issue

This speedometer side suppose to be temperature indicator, but anyhow it change to fuel indicator. May be the technician purposely do it, because his salary increment or bonus is below his expectation! LOL

This RPM meter side with fuel level indicator is correct.
This 1 correct meter panel

P/S: Received this photos from forward mail.

Alternative Gen2 Discussion Forum

I don't think many people willing to pay for the use of a forum on the net. Anyway, the Gen2club.com forum not think so, they limit the access of free members while protected quite a number of forum to paid members only. Honestly, I not support this idea!! By the way, instead of complaint, why not go for altervative. The Autoworld.com.my forum do contain Proton Gen2 dedicated forum. Let all Gen2 owner support the forum at link below:

What If Proton Is Main Sponsor Of Transformer Movie

The Transformer movie from Michael Bay is mainly sponsor by GM (General Motor). What if Proton so smart and knew this movie is a big hit and be the main sponsor of Transformer movie??

The build tough Savvy can transform to be a robot as well!! I think this should be Autobot Jazz, from the way it pose.

How about Optimus Prime? Since Proton do not produce any tracker or lorry, the only Proton flagship product is Proton Perdana. This is the Proton version Optimus Prime transform from a Perdana V6.

Proton Power Window Problem

Daddy Fixit, automotive engineer graduate from Britain and he wrote the "Turbo Blue" column for Sunday Star. Below is his comment on Proton low quality power window problem.

Powerless windows
Question: THE power window winder on my 2001 Proton Wira keeps breaking down and I am now on my fourth replacement.
I have been told that this is due to the poor quality of the motor used on this vehicle. As such, please advise if there are any third party replacements that are more reliable.

Zulkifli Adam



Answer: THE unreliability of the power window winder (motor) on Protons is well known and, up till now, I do not know of any better third-party replacements.
As such, you will just have to keep replacing the power window winder until Proton comes out with a reliable replacement component.
