Hi there, I'm new to perdana v6, I just got a 2nd hand perdana v6 about 5 months back. Everything was fine, the only trouble I was having is some tiny leak of engine oil under the engine. I sent the car to a workshop, they check and they changed the engine oil seal on top, now my car starts to jerk in the morning when it is cold if I press the accelerator, after few minutes it become normal, but I noticed a little bit of white smoke for while, but it disappears afterward. When I check the oil leaking again, it seems the leaking still exist, so I sent the car back to the workshop, he checked the car for while and told me that the car need to be overhaul? I'm like shocked, the car is totally normal, the engine oil also stable, never go down the level as well as the radiator coolant. if anyone can help me out it would be thankful.

that is a common problem from pv6. even 2 weeks after my engine rebuild, the engine head leaks.
the last time which oil seal u changed? your foreman mentioned top overhaul or full overhaul?

Hi there, actually I've checked with 2 mechanics, the 1 which done my oil seal change said need to overhaul, but the other mechanic said that need to top overhaul only. he's charging about 1.5k for that, the thing is, i'm bored of it la, i'm just using my car anyway, I always check the black oil and coolant level, it will be fine for months, so I find the car totally fine :P

it can be done, but only with a reliable pomen....they need to adjust the mounting
of the engine in order to fit pv6 n/a DS.
just becareful.

if the white smoke emitting from your exhaust is minimal then should last u for a couple of mths more, just monitor your oil level......if the level decreases drastically then its time for top overhaul. meantime save up your $$$$.

i suggest when its time for top overhaul, buy the stuffs yourself. made in japan ones costs bout rm150, then just pay your pomen for workmanship. those minor2 parts u could get him to buy, if the workshop is near your hse then better....u get it after work & pass it to him.

Hi there bro, thanks for the reply, yeah the white smoke sometimes only will appear,, especially in cold weather, otherwise no smoke, the engine leaking is very minimal, i guess i could use the car. another thing i want to ask, i'm just wondering, what is the normal level of the engine oil? there are 2 indicator on the dipstick but i'm sure the black oil should be in the 2nd indicator level right? coz normally thats the level i maintain, thank you.

mine also emmits white smoke during cold start, especially after the morning or night rain.
but its normal....as long as u see water particles in the muffler.

remember to use original proton perdana oil cap not those made in china/taiwan aftermarket ones..
cos if u do...oil will leak from the cap.

just ensure the oil level is above half say about 3/4 of the dipstick.

if white vapour in the morning (cold start) and white smoke in cold weather, then i dont think u have a problem.
unless the engine oil level drops..
i always keep my engine oil level at the max (the top indicator level).
and check it on cold engine, not running engine..
