Anyone encounter this kind of problem for saga flx version?

Since new car until now almost a year, encounter around 8-10 times engine revv to in between 3.5krpm-4krpm during start up (regardless it is cold start) due to low rpm at 500rpm when key is turned on.

any idea?

Air filter blocked? Throttle body faulty? sensors faulty? blocked air/fuel injector? blocked inside fuel hose? blocked fuel filter? Suppose engine management would not the issued due to it is react to the mechanical part.

Fed up with proton car. New car feels like a very old problematic car.

If the problemssss are cleared ( rattle steering, rattlle door trim, etc ), it would be a comfort and affordable car to ride in. Sales will definately will goes back to them, no point for introducing SV to answering investor.

By scrapping my car A.K.A proton saga flx to sell as scrap metal, i will more happy than own it.

happened to me once totally out of the blue.....none after that....

to be honest . reliability is been ok...totally no problems so far...fc is ok..power is satisfactory...the thing I cannot stand is the the stupid rattles everywhere...it pisses the sh*t out of me...its nt even 2 yrs old....luckily its not my only car otherwise I wd get crazy...ive owned 4 protons before...no one can say I never give them a chance...I can only say the perdana was the only car worth it....I doubt it very much if I ever get another proton anymore....its such a stressful experience this short life doesn not worth me having to go this !

ya, i owned waja last time, better than new car(if back to year 2002, regardless technology in engine etc). My company previously own perdana v6, the comfort inside perdana is better than waja, everytime i sit in, i will fell asleep..but the abs light on all the time when start engine.

i went COE next to kesas to claim 4 tyre before, they bla bla bla and when i asked what they have done, they told me swap tyre front to back and vice versa. the problem is still there. Since i know their working style, so i just grab the car and out of there, i call manufacturer and gasar them 9 9. they replace 4 new tyre for me.

If want to warranty, 1st they doesn't know what cause the revv. 2nd will ask me to leave car behind for checking (1-3months), 3rd claimed as job done ask me to drive back (later problem comes back).

Last update on TCU, kristoff done for me in authorize service center, Person incharge warned me that my warranty void already because calling 3rd party but krisoff is vendor to proton. So, i feel not secure when proton tighten the rules, as same as claiming part. WTF. If like that build 60-90 service center around malaysia, dun authorize any more license to them lo. YANG SUSAH =COMSUMER, BOTH COAST CAN'T REACH, DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF SEA. This can't do, that can't claim, @$!%.

rattles? My year 2009 101,500 km Persona is 99% rattle free. smile_approve.gif It's got minor problems along the way (more to wear and tear) but pretty good for a Malaysian car.
