Proton Saga BLM

[mivec_mivec]

dunno why all said that the throttle response is low..i'm not the BLM owner,but I've seen,up to 400m battle BLM with IAFM standard,against WISE high cam mod+exhaust..the result is BLM last with quarter car only.
for IAFM owner,u may try push ur gas up to 7Krpm and see how..try up to gear 4..i think the performance oso seems good.

Throttle problem for me....... Very hard to control especially 1st gear & 2nd gear.... i don't like the sound when v switch 1st gear to 2nd... any suggestion?

Hi All,
All goes the same. Not very happy with the throttle response and sound insulation.
That aside, everything is kinda fine for a local below rm35k car.

i bought my BLM last year July.. M-Line, auto, zircon green.. i'm totally satisfied with my car.. the handling and the engine the most.. even it only S4PE but the IAFM helps to make the engine feel more power, than my last Iswara 4G13P.. i heard some others got a problem with the car.. leaking absorbers, IAFM malfunction etc.. but, majorily, power windows switch is easily broken.. one of my friends replace it three times already & 1 time for myself.. luckily it still under warranty.. so, F.O.C. from service centre..

i drive the saga blm around 4 month above..... it is really not bad... only the accelerate speed not so good.... relay quiet strong... i think around 2-3second...but the top speed also can go up to 170km/h if for budget one... saga blm is a choice....

BLM=worth buying.it's ok for under 35k..

 

[papagoines]

u "think" u did MORE THAN 190 ?...u modded anything ? coz my fren complain to me that its hard to go up after 170km/h, or u took a very long time to reach that speed ? after all its only 1.3, the advantages r "campro"

no, the saga did..i onli did 170km/h..the merc? god knows.. but the saga gone just like that..i was hoping to meet up with the saga at any plaza tol to hear the engine sound but no luck..but good news is, the saga frequent use lebuh raya pantai timur..maybe after this, with some luck can hear the engine..maybe hi-cam, maybe supercharger, maybe take out everything and put mivec..who knows.. :)

and oh i drive a wira..

well , proton saga is made by PROTON , we all have to bare in mind the brand. well we all noe its faults but at the end its cheap to run and maintain and we still buy it, last weekend i was driving to mantin and was sandwiched by 4 proton saga blm. for a while i felt like i was in a convoy , well basicly i feel for the price its the best bargain as u get a full sedan with a huge boot , biggest in its class as claimed by proton , obviously most buyers have upgraded to bigger 15-16 inch rims and better suspension . frankly its not a bad looking car , looks decent with some mods , i m sure adding a k&n air filter ( if they already have one that fits blm) , get a proper exhaust system and high quality spark plugs the car will even perform better , many have claimed that the iafm gives good results so if u want better performance do the other mods.

the bad thing for this car is the interior , much better then the previous saga but plastic , i mean in our weather the steering will feel like touching an oven after parking in d sun but again cost was a factor i suppose and proton felt it was the best .

final verdict > if u r a new driver or ur a person that needs a car to travel from a - b this car will do that just fine just bare with all the minor defects which proton will gladly repair for free as long as its under warranty and u have the time to run up and down their service center. be prepared for

1.power window failure
2.power window switch problems
3.weird noises all around the car ( squeaks expecially )
4. bad , bad , bad nvh ( sound insulation)
5. and if ur luck really bad , it myt burn down ( happen to first few satria neo )
