All modern transmissions are generally very reliable, problems can occur, and if they do, it can be expensive to correct. It is therefore advisable to visit a gearbox and clutch trial specialist transmission problems, because they are better equipped to deal with all issues that can have you. This applies to the manual and automatic transmissions, like most modern cars are controlled by computers and require special care. The more you let the problems, the more damage is caused and the more expensive it will be repaired.
While some problems that arise with your automatic transmission is extremely complex and there are common causes of problems, the transfer of the vehicle many owners encounter. These include a difficult or delayed when the gears change, and the transmission not to stay in motion. Other problems are a big noise from the gearbox or a constant buzz. It can also deaf, and heard noises from under the car, the automatic transfer speed.
Before you send your car to a mechanic, keep reading for a basic understanding of automatic transmissions, and you can talk to your mechanic if you have any knowledge on the subject, which could reduce the excessive burden that some garages charge for simple repairs. There are mechanical gear even if it, and if the problem is so serious that your transmission needs to be replaced, is a quality garage offers a warranty on your new gear, you cannot be more money to pay.
There are many parts to an automatic transmission, but there are some important elements that are often associated with transmission problems. The bell is a fixed conic under the car, or directly behind the engine. Although automatic transmissions do not require changes in speed, they are still in the car and are classified as major or planetary gearboxes. The fluid is vital for the functioning of an automatic transmission; it has the right kind and right level. And finally, keep clear of the filter transmission, that it collects any matter in the liquid is carried out.
In a recent study, the problems of lubrication and contamination of the fluid of 25% of all transmission problems, automatic and manual composed. There are several reasons, so can cause problems for your fluid transfer. The liquid may be contaminated, causing irregular by an accumulation of toxins and cleaning. This can be resolved and replaced by testing of the filter when an accumulation of residue on them. Gearbox oil should be replaced every two years to ensure that the quality of lubricants used. The level in the gearbox may also need addressing, rather than too little fluid can cause the noise from the gearbox. It may sound like a serious problem and lead to more expensive work was on your vehicle than what is actually needed done.
Most of these problems are easily overcome and does not need too much money to spend on them. Be sure to visit a specialist if you are in transmission problems and you notice your vehicle available for the coming years.

Engine and Perfomance
V6 Engine
A V6 engine is a V engine with six cylinders mounted on the crankcase in two banks of three cylinders, usually set at either a right angle or an acute angle to each other, with all six pistons driving a common crankshaft. It is the second most common engine configuration in modern cars after the inline four.
The V6 is one of the most compact engine configurations, shorter than the straight 4 and in many designs narrower than the V8 engine, and is well suited to the popular transverse engine front-wheel drive layout. It is becoming more common as the space allowed for engines in modern cars is reduced at the same time as power requirements increase, and has largely replaced the inline-6, which is too long to fit in many modern engine compartments.
Although it is more complicated and not as smooth as the inline 6, the V6 is more compact, more rigid, and less prone to torsional vibrations in the crankshaft. The V6 engine has become widely adopted for medium-sized cars, often as an optional engine where a straight-4 is standard, or as an economy engine where a V8 is a higher-cost option. It is also becoming a high performance engine, due to its high power and torque output like the classic V8 while still maintaining great fuel economy.Some of other examples of this are: Nissan Z-car, Infiniti G, Chevrolet Camaro and the Hyundai Genesis Coupe.
Modern V6 engines commonly range in displacement from 2.5 to 4.3 L (150 to 260 cu in), though larger and smaller examples have been produced.
Facts you need to know about Perdana V6
History
The Perdana was first introduced by Proton in 1995 with Mitsubishi's proven 2.0L 4G63 sohc engine. It was based on the Mitsubishi Galant platform and was thus similar to the Mitsubishi Eterna in Japan, but received minor internal and external changes when it was launched locally in Malaysia. The first generation Perdana was also Proton's first car to offer an anti-lock braking system (ABS) and cruise control.
In 1997, the Perdana was given a facelift with a chrome grille, a new rim design, new body colours and upgraded interior trimmings.
In 1999, Proton shoehorned a 2.0 L 6A12 V6 engine (also sourced by Mitsubishi) into the Perdana. The so-called Proton Perdana V6 also had a new bodykit and 16" rims. The original Perdana in Malaysia soldiered on for a short while before it was dropped. With Lotus-tuned and upgraded suspension settings, the car is known to handle well through tight corners and be a good high speed cruiser.
In 2003, the Perdana V6 was given a major facelift, gaining a new Alfa Romeo-esque front grill (earning the moniker "Alfadana" in Malaysia) and new bumpers. Inside, it was given a new aluminium-effect trim. This iteration remains on sale to date. Also made available is a luxury variant of the Proton Perdana V6 with an extended length of 25 cm (10 inches) in the rear door, dubbed the Proton Perdana V6 Executive. The Executive is essentially a conversion of the Perdana V6 by Automotive Conversion Engineering (ACE), a subsidiary of EON specialised in developing limousines for statesmen and building TD2000s.Two Perdana V6 Limousine variants are additionally released by ACE with extended lengths of 66 cm (26 inches) and 91 cm (36 inches), and sport far more luxuries then the Executive variant.
