Hello,

Mileage = 4200 km

1. I've been driving my Proton Saga 1.6 FLX SE since April (5 months already). There was no abnormally loud noise when accelerating (Only gradually getting louder when rpm climbs).
Only recently, after I drove from Setapak to KLIA and back, there is this apparent, loud, (not whining sound, but quite rough) noise when I press pedal to around 2500rpm. The range for the loud noise is very narrow, when I release pedal a little, the noise goes away. Or I step beyond 2500rpm to around 3k, the noise goes away as well.

2. When pedal braking from low speed to stop, there's this knocking sound (tuk, tuk tuk) coming from the back of the car. Is it because of faulty rear drum brakes? This sound was already noticeable when new.


Any answers and solutions? Please help.

Thanks.

Sorry for commenting on an old post, butmy car seems to be doing the same thing. Accelerating below 2500rpm seems fine, but then above 2500rpm, it gets extremely loud, like the car is struggling for power. If i go higher, then the noise goes a little bit quieter.

Did you do anything to your car since this post?
