I would think a flashing "N" lamp would indicate a gearbox problem. Since someone else has already sent their car to Proton and they have waited for the technical report, I'm guessing that a technical bulletin has been sent out to all Proton service centres regarding this problem.

I know that's how Ford Malaysia operates and hopefully Proton does the same as well.

Since the light is flashing then any Proton service centre should be able to ring up a fault code and diagnose the problem but then again its Proton we're talking about. The closest thing I could find on the net about your problem is a 2000 Mitsubishi Montero with the same flashing light problem except his happens after a couple of hours of driving and its cause the gearbox is overheating.

If your light flashes at start up then its not an overheating gearbox I think. Have any work done on your gearbox lately? Like change the transmission fluid or anything?
