good thing about our car is that its light, so at traffic light u can accelerate faster than those bigger heavier cc cars  thumbup.gif

btw when u start ur car, do u turn straight all the way n ignite the engine, or you turn to battery first?
cause for me i turn to the battery first, u will hear the sound of i dunno wat, then only start the engine, is it correct? icon_question.gif

Yup, i did the same thing as you...if not sometimes the car can't start properly (the RPM up and down after started)...

Yup, i felt the same, especially when aircon kickin, less noticeable, and suprisingly the throttle is more responding, low RPM torque (1.5-2K) is better...Yesterday until now run for 87KM, the gauge still show full bar...

maintain 85-90KM/H where IAFM is open....
dn't stop when not necessary
stopping for saga is not good...like i say...this is 1 very weird car
stopping consume more fuel than u move
so...even you're only moving at 5-10KM/H....it's still more save than stopping
aircon is major sucker....like morning...no need open one....at least for me...my car at morning is very cold
*
Sometimes open aircon is for more comfort ride, not the cold or hot matter...less carbon monoxide (not good for ur health), less air resistance (windows closed, means less wind drag), a lot silent so can enjoy ICE (wind noise + cars noise), less habuk go inside your interior, means clean ride...for me in the morning i just open aircon and set the temp at 1 or 2 bar only, although consume fuel, but for that reason is worth it...just my opinion la... nod.gif

i feel my car got lil jerking while constant speed.. i don tink it is aircon kick in.. coz it happened often.. any1 also facing tis problem?
*
Nope, it was jerking due to aircon kickin, i think your AT will notice easily, cos at same speed your car RPM is lower than mine MT...mine MT at 90km/h @3000RPM also can slightly feel the jerking during aircon kickin.

You are rite, the aircon kickin is about 30s-60s once la, not 2-3minutes la, even is lowest setting...at night try to stop at the dark place, you will notice the headlamp dim for a while when the compressor surge power..

Just got my chance to ride the Myvi for the 1st time...a very eventful night, i think i won't forget it forever.

So I ride my friend Myvi went for dinner, and few things make me won't regret on buying BLM.
1. The suspension is worst on bumpy road, jump like frog... rclxub.gif
2. The dash board is too high, make the windscreen smaller than BLM, vision decrease.
3. The aircon is not cold as BLM, my 2 bar temp setting pawn half temp setting of myvi.
4. Suprisingly it got exactly similar problem as my BLM, the both of the front door (exactly the same place, which near the door knob) got 'zzzzzz' vibration noise along the road.
5. The soundproof is more or less same as BLM only.

So after the dinner we went to take repaired handphone, but the shop just return the handphone without battery, and said she adi gave back to my friend when send for repair. So my friend is worry whether she forgot where she place the battery or the shop want to cheat her. So i saw her worry then i ma suggest drive for her lo, but she refuse...then finally she drive also...

Maybe she think too much during drive, when she turn the corner, she just didn't realise got car stop in front and straight bang on it...So we out from the car to check, my door at left can't open, the left mudguard just pushed behind and blocked the front left door, and the bumper is damage severely. So we think the car in front will serious also, but I nearly faint after i saw it...the bumper just got some minor scratch and no dent at all, can remove easily by polish. That car is Hyundai (dun know which model, because not familiar wif Hyundai car). Like cadboard VS stone... laugh.gif

So dun know if my bad luck or her bad luck....The morale of story, dun drive when your mood is down.

Is it normal for the RPM indicating at 3.5 for 120KM/H?

I went to JB from KL, 2 ways cost me 2 full tanks petrol with mileage only 750KM++

I think it's horrible...
*
For auto, yes, according to gear ratio, is 3.5K RPM @ 120KM/h...

MT even higher, exactly 4K @ same speed...i just went 90-100km/h from JB to Ipoh last month, total 1100KM only RM112 of RON95, means 11 cents/KM...so drive fast will consume more fuel...

Mine is MT, yup, i only went 90-100KM for 500++ journey, thats why can get those figure...JB-Ipoh used Petronas 95, Ipoh-JB Shell fuel saver 95, both gave more or less same mileage, so virtually no different of performance/FC for long run...FYI, i'm not totally highway driving, 40% old road, 60% highway...so thats why i feel MT is fuel saver lo...

and can we mix Ron 95 and 97 frequently...I'm using shell Ron 95 now.

Anything more than ~16cents/KM is quite bad for me...but still I saw a lot of M-Line AT users suffer this kind of FC.

As i said early, when light comes out, the tank still got 10+ Liters remaining, i refuel at that condition before, only manage to bump in 28L, thats why RM50 lo...highest record also only RM57, because no dare to continue too much for that level of fuel.

Notice that even though australia get a cheap 1.6, they cut some stuff...if u see the brochure u will notice the wheels are steel type, 13", no chrome inner door handle, no reverse sensor, seat fabric is probably b-line version one, no fog lamp! (see the picture in the brochure, there's a hole.In fact i think its not m-line but b-line spec...) but if u see their upgrades available there's:

Remote Boot Release Kit
Bonnet & Head Lamp Protectors
Alloy Wheels
Safety Kit
Reverse Sensors
Body Kit
Rear Spoiler (interesting..wonder how this looks like)
Slimline Weathershields (what's this???)
Number Plate Protectors (6-Digit)
Boot Liner (what's this??)
Tow Bar & Wiring Loom (what's this???)
Floor Mats
Dash Mat
Sun Shades
CD Case
Mud Flaps
Upgradable Audio Unit

I wonder if proton will provide the upgrades for us in malaysia...but its b-line with 7 colors to choose from and 1.6 engine..if they offered this here, sure a lot of pple will buy..
*
Do you think the interior quality will be better than those local market? means the dashboard and door vibration noise is given 'special treatment'? hmm.gif

Because i heard that those Wira which for export the quality is alot better than for local market one...

same kerb weight, different engine.
i still yet to done 5k service, but below is my fc

100% city - 270km for rm50
90% highway - 385km for rm50 (drive 90-160kmh)
if extreme condition (5th gear cruise at 70-80kmh in federal) might can achieve 0.12/km
if extreme condition (rev to 5000rpm and run with 160-180) is about 0.18/km

fc wise, wont so high as ppl thought off. shud chg the mindset tat "bigger cc higher fuel comsumption".
*
Yup, better engine even higher CC will have good FC also...My dad old school Toyota Corona 2.0GLI can manage 0.12-13 cents/KM if cruising @ 110KM/h at highway...

For BLM honestly 1.3 for 10XXKG is ngam ngam only, if you let say pick 4 adult, than you will feel helpless when you want to overtake car. Last time 2 'strong' men (90kg each) + 2 'normal' men (55kg each) ride my car, i have to rev until 3K before i shift gear (normally only me i shift at 2.2K)...and the throttle totally no response at 5 gear @ 70KM/h @ 2.3K RPM, if steady cruising is OK, want pickup is very hard...FYI mine is MT, if AT, i guess you will suffer like hell, i think you step your throttle heavily and shift @ 4K, but your FC will like drink water... laugh.gif

in fact, 1.3 and 1.6 dont really make any difference to me. however, 1.3 MT has got short gear ratio 2.5k RPM @ 80KM if not mistaken. i wonder if extra RM2K is value for money.  hmm.gif

extra 2K is worth its price, but only red colour available make alot of potential buyers change their mind.

it depends on the torque curve also la ...thats because this Campro is high rev engine, so 3K will be more responding..if the engine not vibrate then low rev shifting is not a problem for me la...different ppl different driving style, i just like uncle driving style, save fuel hehe... tongue.gif

u reminds me the story of wira
wira oso 10XXkg.
if wira 1.6 car also very imba.
too bad my house no wira 1.6, else i wont get the current red babes.

perodua and toyota very sucess to make the car lighter
u see kelisa around 900kg
myvi 940kg
even the new MPV oso 1050kg.

Even lighter than saga m-line which is 1080kg!!!
toyota vios J is 1020kg which is same wif my car.

good handling is not a main factor in malaysia market? normal ppl need good city car, not cornering car.
jz 2 my cent.

So thats why Myvi end up wif severe damage when hit those heavy car lo... tongue.gif

Anyway, just went to ask for repair for my friend Myvi...left front mudguard change + repray + knock back bumper (mechanics not gurantee the result will be satisfy) + clip back headlamp (top screw holder and some bar holding that lamp adi broken, and the plastic cover also scratch) + repray half bumper, cost RM450...luckily the price is still 'acceptable' sweat.gif info update also: the car hit by Myvi is Hyundai Sonata, very solid... thumbup.gif sweat.gif

actually lighter not so good also, it could be the cut cost in terms of the car body...not safe...but you have to know that toyota has been in the industry for so many years world wide, they have more staff, more experience in the motor industry...u cant really compare a major player with proton who is still growing, even though they're already in the business for 20 or so years, but they have been protected by govt for too long, also cause a lot of problems and failures...nevertheless, I think they are improving, otherwise i wun even dare to buy a proton.

This is the 1st national car for my family...suprisingly my father agree for this BLM purchase, before that he just curse proton like hell... laugh.gif maybe attracted by the appearance and its cheap price...but after he test drive, his comment is '都几好力下 geh' (pickup is quite good)... tongue.gif

I might get my saga soon, some doubt to ask saga owner.

1. older car odometer usually has two reading, one is total KM and another one is KM/trip which can be reset every time pump oil. From what I see from the screenshot online http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dBa1eLzHOSY/SqPF...-h/DSC01015.JPG  , I only see one meter reading, which is probably the total KM, so how do we read KM/trip, need to deduct the KM everytime pump oil, or got any switch to see the KM/trip reading?

2. I currently driving 1997 wira 1.3cc, driving speed average ard 50-70km/hr daily, FC is around RM55 for 320KM, will saga manual FC better than this or worst?

Hopefully can get answer here  smile.gif
*
1. Did you saw the dial between the RPM meter and speedometer? press to alternate between trip meter and mileage meter, after refuel, hold for few seconds will reset the trip meter. There just didn't show both at the same time only. nod.gif

2. Depends on traffic condition and ur right foot. If there is no stop-go traffic jam and can cruising at 50-70 constant speed, then Saga manual is a fuel saver...at >60km/h actually could change to 5th gear and the engine RPM will only around 2000(given that no load in car, only driver alone), then FC will be very good. Mine Saga manual can achieved RM0.13/KM (RON95), which is RM55 for 420KM for daily working @ 70-90km/h and 30% stop-go.

Can switch the meter reading la, this is what I think also. Confused by that blog owner because he said he keep deducting the km after pump oil, haha sweat.gif

wow, your FC is good, as long as it can has my wira FC I already very happy, cos I heard my aunt said her saga auto (1st batch) full tank only can drive for 194km, that's too terrible, but I'm not sure how she count the FC.

She also mention that the saga can't start at one morning and the SC said it's related to the petrol problem. Yesterday I asked SA  bout this and he told me that changing petrol between RON95 and 97 will cost the engine can't start, is this true?
*
If you read through this thread, alot of Auto users suffer terrible FC, about 16-20cents/KM in traffic jam condition or city drive, i don't know how their actual driving condition, so far rare complaint from Manual users suffer high FC in this thread, not sure whether majority is AT user or what.

For start up problem, i did changed from RON95 to 97 last week, so far no problem during morning cold start for whole week, and today just switched back to 95, maybe tmr cold start see whether got problem or not.
