crap..la...no matter how i change gear be it 2k rpm/2.5rpm/3rpm....the result is around the same......campro=fuel sucker......
pump 34psi front,32psi rear.......and the full tank to 1st bar decrease damn fast if you quite heavy footed....

then its normal..la...

hmmm....yeah..mine no problem reached 40k++ around 1year 11months which is going to 2years d..everything still works like charm.....just replace tear and wear items....
btw jonspark,ultima i guess your persona is 1st batch rite? without iafm rite???...maybe the 1st batch persona have better quality since i dont really have problem with the car despite my driving style quite rough once a while....
but FC is real problem

yes invecs II=SPIII atf fluid......and hyundai elantra,naza accent all using invecsII....and some other korean cars

haha...mine 40k....FC have to live with it..la...since i travel frm klang to subang everyday with jam all...full tank most also 300km++ using
caltex ron95 and mobil 1 fully-syn still dont have really improvement on FC. but lighter acceleration,quieter and smoother engine sound..but caltex ron97 feel so underpower and no pickup...
wow...delphi??..I just stick to proton atf fluid only and change every 20k km.....i dare not use other brand since grading will be different...

bro ultima...what petrol you use eh??...

latest update on fc:
tested out this morning when the fuel warning on....fill in RM15=8liters++ of petrol and measure how far can i drive for rm15 of petrol

total distance covered for RM15 fuel: 126km++
fuel brand: caltex ron 95
driving conditions: highway 60%, city 40% (heavy jam at kesas bridge going to subang and ss15 slow traffic),
speed : 80km/h-120km/h, gear change at 2000-3000rpm
engine oil: mobil 1 0w40
last service : 39511km (current 40821km)
transmission:automatic, non iafm

it is just estimated calculation from the moment i fill in and record it when the fuel warning light on

owh..molotov cocktail, Mobil Super S is same as Mobil Super 2000....mobil has change the packaging to Mobil Super 2000 for a new look.....either one is the same....no worries....=).....so hws the mobil semi syn so far???....lighter??

add on: its not necessary to change gear oil at 1st service....maybe they chop you cause bring own oil, so they insist you to change gear oil to recover their lose.. just to tell you honestly....avoid taking pakages where everything is included...just tell them the parts you want to change...

like 1st (1000km), 2nd (5000km), 3rd (10000km)....you only need to change:
1)engine oil
2)oil filter
3)spark plugs (10000km or 15000/20000km also can) (i change the first spark plug at around 20000km)
4)gear oil/atf fluid (20000km/30000km) depends on driving style hard or smooth
5)air filter (10000km/15000km)
6)coolant (every 15000km-25000km or 2years) try to use good coolant like "caltex long life and toyota long life"
7)others (depend tear and wear)

hope this helps...even you know d...

today remove the front strut bar...cause kinda annoying when each time need to remove the bar in order to change the airfilter... so just remove it...and after removal, i feel the car not so stable.... dunno physiological effect or real...

smoke blm?.. ..try using better brake pads..definately improve the braking system....try RS/IMP formula....

for the clunking sound when turning right/left....could it be the fog lamps holder as i check the holder is in metal and very close to the car chassis metal....so when we turning, the holder will shake and end up touching the chassis which will resulted as metal noise....

...i wanted to diy myself but no time..maybe ipohmali can provide us some feedback once you get back frm SC... ...maybe..the holder should wrap with cloth (cut in to small pieces) and glue it on the top part or put double sided tape on it.. (the top part)....to see if its the culprit....

ok..its normal....let me explain you clearer....
there are total of 5 marks.....so if you pump full tank the meter will point to the 5th mark(line)...so when decreasing to 4th mark its quite fast as its only around 5-6liters....where after half tank to 2nd last mark...its quite slow and last bar to warning light its quite fast as well.....so there is nothing wrong with the fuel gauge.....

...i know which forum you from.
btw yeah...everytime you start the car...let the key turn into "ON" position and wait for few seconds before cranking the engine...

haha...chill..la...i wont reveal....erm i think can..but not too sure...

1k,5k,10k free of labour charge...just pay parts like engine oil,filter,etc....but for 15k onwards labour will be charge around rm60++..but may be different for every SC......but for me after the 25k service i skip and service at normal workshop where i buy the parts i wanted where i feel even better rather than using those oil provided by SC.....cheaper as well.....but if warranty then abit problem...

all spec comes with immobilizer.....immobilizer cannot be seen on eyes...its using radiowave to transmit when you insert your key into the ignation.....open the key and you will see 1 small rectangular shape which is the immobilizer..to test it take the small thing off and crank the car...it should be no sound of cranking.....just silent..

check whether the speaker is screw properly.....and also the door panel whether it fit in properly other than that is ntg else dat can make the sound...
and also check whether the door pocket got any thing in it...if yes remove it
