I am leaving my car for them to check on 25/9/12. Until today, I still yet to get my car back. I called them last Friday, the SA said their technician after find tune or reflash something and will drive my car to genting for a test.

I called them yesterday to check the test status, the SA inform so far so good. no engine off issue. and they will try again this morning drive to Genting. If nothing happen again, they will return car back to me this week.

Anyhow, I will drive to Genting again to test myself.

This is the first time i hear Persona having such issues unsolved after many diagnostics and works done on it since it was brand new. FYI, Persona lacks any major or serious issues since the first batch. There are issues but are small and very minor ones. Overall, i drive mine hard few times every single week for 3+ years. It's a reliable and averagely good build car. Being a ultra fussy person myself, i find this car (my 2nd proton since Wira first batch) is pretty good and satisfactory.

I bet you are just one of the unlucky ones to get a bad unit from factory. I hope you will solve it and please do share it with us here.

Just got my car back from Proton after leaving there for 2 weeks. The SA says, proton techinian checked the car wiring, so far no wiring issue. And they have replace the purge valve for my car. drove my car to Genting for 2 times. So far so good. No engine died off issue.

Am i confidence to their answer? I will test myself this coming Saturday. If really happen again, I got nothing to say anymore. Good Luck!
