wuuuhuuu!!...today i'm officially a persona owner...a silver color M-Line (A/T) rclxm9.gif

also a proud owner of these problem (for now):

1. the famous "kok" sound when turning right (somehow turning left doesn't produce that sound, maybe i need to listen more) rolleyes.gif
2. signal stick didn't auto snap back to normal after left signaling and turn (signaling right and turn is normal) hmm.gif
3. found a big size bolt c/w washer at the base of my right wiper (not sure where this come from) hmm.gif

other than that, no complain

eh, my mom's persona also got this "kok" noise when turning left on bad road condition
more to like kruk kruk kruk...
can send to SC to fix this?

mileage is just 6k only...
the proton sound is already there
sometimes the dashboard vibrate sound also there sweat.gif
fully turn the steering to steer also got some weird noise from the steering

1 thing i like is no wind noise.. even until 110km/h..
unlike my h. city.. 90km/h wind noise so visible...

Guys, quick question, whats the size of the stock speaker for the persona front and back? 6.5" front? 6x9 back?

planning to get 6.5" component but i dont want any "chop" requirement, or else i guess i have to downgrade a bit to match with the stock.

1. the famous "kok" sound when turning right/left (only on uneven road, good condition junction no sound) rolleyes.gif
2. signal stick sometimes didn't auto snap back to normal after left signaling and turn (signaling right and turn is normal) hmm.gif
3. found a big size bolt c/w washer at the base of my right wiper (not sure where this come from) hmm.gif

btw, got my tint work frm Ray Tech...good workmanship (but cannot tahan the 2 weeks no windows roll down rule)...i don't like to open the door to pay toll

wah...dun say lidat lah...me no sifu...but many has found this to be true. download the non CPS campro torque curve, understand it k. now u see the torque dip region right? around 2k to 4k, but car got tolerence one, take ur car, rev it from stand still, see the rpm go and how the car respond, should be aroung the same as the torque curve, but slightly different. remember where the rpm region where is starts to drop and when is the region it pick up quickly.

here's the trick, to save fuel, u want to try to reduce drivin in the region where the torque dips happen. UNLESS THE CAR IS ALREADY MOVING. so, meaning u hv to bring the car up to momentum ASAP, reducing the time u spend in the torque dip region. so, rev hard from stand still, then cruise. u will notice better FC.

to make the car more drivable, invest in LCP lah...ROI is worth it lah...else do ur exhaust...other stage one mod not really significant. u got PM.

yeap after 1st service will be better...but expect it to improve around 15000-20000km.......and also depends on what engine oil you use like mobil super 2000,shell hx7,eneos,Q8 many more....lighter engine oil will help improve pickup and FC....use oil like 10w40 semi-syn or 5w40 fully-syn....avoid using 20w50/15w50 or any 50 grade oil as its very heavy for campro......for my car first 5000km quite bad but improve abit abit until current mileage 40k km which not bad...

hmmm...i always gear change at 2.5-3000rpm......so i guess its abit ok right??? hmm.gif ....as i noe the torque dip is around 2000-3000rpm....but what rpm u recommend to change in order to improve FC??....and revving high will pose any problems on the gearbox/engine in long term ??? hmm.gif
