Hi bro, don't worry. It is just a cable snap i presume. I snapped mine last time twice. The cable cost me about RM20++ and DIY installation. It is not serious, no worries. :_:

 

[componentspeaker]

wow, can even DIY?
good news. but i better get a mechanic since i need it asap.
will it take a long time to fix?

it shouldn't take more than 15 minutes for a trained mechanic to do it.

.......................is it a proton? My dads 24 year old skool till date hasnt experiencened snaped throttle cable.

hmm.. wat to do, me also proton wat..

 

[Vagabond]

an option to keep these hoses from snapping would be to purchase and install a steel/teflon braided clutch hose.

also supposed to be more accurate when depressing the clutch.

vagabond,it's not hydraulic,it's cable.only 1.6.1.8 n 2.0 comes with hydraulic.
