2000 Proton Wira GLi review from Malaysia
"So-so lah!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The engine had a peculiar habit of completely dying off in the midst of driving, particularly when changing to lower gear or depressing the brake.
This happens after it gives off 3 very noticeable loud ticking sounds from the engine, each tick causing the engine rpm to dip to almost zero.
What in heavens name is wrong?
General comments?
The interior is comfortable, but the engine is under-powered. Engine pick-up is horrible.
