I got my myvi on July'05, and noticed that there is a very strong fuel
smell came from the air-cond hose when I started my engine after I fill
petrol.
I had complaint twice and send to checking and servicing but the problems
still exist.
Today, I faced a more serious problem where the handbrake mulfunction.
Why ?????Why so many problems, she's only 1 month old. Help........
Some more, I feel the fuel consumption is very high, above 9km/litre (1.3
Auto), I though she should be a very low fuel consumption.

Probably due to increasing demand for Myvi..some of the QC aspect has
been overlooked.

btw, do u fill up the petrol full tank of not..if full tank, maybe just
some fumes got in..no problem..but if not.then probably some loose
fitting here..get them to check la...takut nanti terbakar lak..

hehehe... sorry guys, but my ozzy myvi is performing very well. Just send
it for 1k service last week, and guess what I got nothing to complain or
repair! I think I'm lucky kot.... but so far driven thru sun, rain,
haze,etc. but no leaked windscreen, no wet carpet, no petrol fume(bahaya
giler!), nada,nein.... Only thing is, there is this funny sound when the
A/C compressor kicks in(Weing sound... dunno how to describe)

Anybody sudah tarik Myvi top speed???Big Smile

currently very, very very eager to "sayurkan" proton sawi. Very
unfortunate can't seem to find any OTR to ajak drag or race... ada orang
ke beli sawi nih? Pelik dah berapa bulan launch masih tak nampak2 OTR!
Funny!

hai,

Your statement in Proton thread..perhaps this applicable for your my vi
also..

true2.... new car mmg sedap, like virgin maa everything still "tight"
and "kemut". Wait till you bang everyday for the next 6 months, then only
say whether good or not(in terms of QC and reliability)...nazirmzCool

My Myvi also one month old. Was very happy with it. But yesterday a
problem started. When I lock my car, the alarm starts screaming. So today
send to service center. Guess what? Have to change the whole damn wiring
system! I am so damn sore. Perodua got QC or not? How can such a car
leave the factory. Damn upset. Regret buying the car.

so sad to hear about btu32s's GF incident.....
Wat i really upset with P2 is : When our brand new car encounter prob, end
up we have to pay to fix the prob.
I am facing allignment prob....SO i asked P2 service centre to fix it and
they charge me RM50. And guess wat, after servicing, the prob doesn't seen
to be work. When i drive and i try to let go out hands from the sterling
slowly, my car is heading to one side.
Scary man!
