servicing after 1k km is not a problem but bcareful as some sv centre may void warranty for certain things if there is any defects brows.gif . Anyways, even then, you have to argue with them & be angry mad.gif hence they might replace the defective parts for u foc icon_idea.gif . Comin back 2 d subject, I have tried this sv centre: 63 Jalan Layang-layang 2, Puchong, 47100
03-5882-3899......so far....they allow me 2 bring my own engine oil & says that it will not void d warranty thumbup.gif . They are quite willing 2 listen 2 your problems too......but u need to be very detailed. Pay attention 2 your IAFM if they are noisy, tell them to fix it..... nod.gif

only replace the necessary things & no X1R engine treatment, no windscreen washer whistling.gif . Check IAFM got noise or not, if got....tell them to fix it. The rest, should be ok thumbup.gif . Mentally, prepare to endure long hours if send to Proton Edar SV centre..... brows.gif

Agree. Find out d parts to change at 20k km from d manuals.....buy it from spare part shop...cheaper but make sure genuine....IAFM kon...very normal....bring it to Proton Edar SV centre so that u can claim it on d spot..if they have stock....Try Mobil S2000 semi-synth...more lower end torque & only RM 85 at PH Auto in PJ. If air-cond not cold, ask them 2 check on d filter...gets dirty easily. Check wheel allignment & balancing plus tyre rotation recommended.

Happy Servicing! brows.gif

Mine also quite same eventhough already done 10k service. Kind of disappointed. The worst are the two last bars. Once last 2 bars, better start looking for fuel up. sad.gif

Bro, I had d same problem when d car was new. But I believe there so many factors contributing to this issue of bad FC.

What u may 1 2 try, is to use Mobil Super 2000 semi-synth, retune ur ECU, inform the sv advisor about bad FC, use caltex ron 97, beginning stage of using a new fuel...ensure your previous tank is almost empty & that will give u d effect immediately.

My car now is at 20k km....RM57 = about 27-28l = 270-280 km.....using Ron 97 caltex. icon_idea.gif

D thing about testing non-OEM parts is to test it 1 by 1 so that u know d effect exactly on ur car. brows.gif

B4 I changed to all stuffs above, my RPM can go over 3 but no power, bad FC. Now below 3 even on slope, using "D" plus reasonable FC. To me is not bad le.....

Nope, I'm happy about my car FC, RM50 always >350KM, of course this might due to different traffic condition.

Anyway, how much for Mobil super 2000? hmm.gif
*
The last time I checked, Mobil Super2000 cost around RM85 at PH Auto Enterprise....recommended by senior forumer called Vanquish....This place is near SS2....

hmm.gif I wonder what kind of unique engine oil our bor Chee ann recommends...... shocking.gif
Care to share?

What engine oil to use for 10KM service?

And for the 10KM service, its consider a major 1 rite? Which they will change many things?

10k kmis not a major service. u may use any engine oil depending on what u want. I have personally used Mobil Super 2000 semi.synth & it suits my ride....Factors to consider are such as budget, quality, type of performance required, FC & d list goes on.........try 2 b more specific... nod.gif

I don't know why after the first service my car become worst..
FC is high. Have to drive until a high RPM only the car will change gear.
My friend said something about my car having timing problem. But I am not sure >.<
*
Bro, d high RPM thing can't be changed. Campro is a high rev engine plus drive by wire tech which when u go uphill, u need to speed from a distance to accumulate momentum. If u slow down when going uphill, it will not change to lower gear but only when reach almost flat, d speed will start picking up. A lot more factors that led to bad FC like type of engine oil used, heavy or light footed drive, proper warm up b4 driving & etc..... By all means, I don't think ur car has timing problem......Wait till u reach 10 - 15k km, then u will notice some improvement.

Happy waitin! rclxms.gif

Hi BLM experts tongue.gif

Just wanna ask something here. I saw the BLM service manual stating service intervals is at every 10K. Should I follow the manual or still go for every 5K service?
Which to follow?  rclxub.gif

NOTE: I know. My car haven't even reach 1K service yet but curios about the subsequent ones. Don flame me la.  notworthy.gif
*
??????? rclxub.gif

Did u check on the right page & right info?
By d way, u'll notice after ur 1k service....they will stick a sticker on right of your windscreen. U will notice that they will write down the mileage for next service which will be 5k. nod.gif

Happy 1k!

OMG !!! this is almost EXACTLY the same as my fc.

yours = 3000sen/122km = 24.6 sen per km
mine  = 5000sen/200km = 25 sen per km

comments ... comments ... comments ???? anyone ???

Guys....settle down....

I was in d same position when I had my car newly.....but during 15k km service, I change to Mobil Super 2000 Semi-Synthethic engine oil & wuala! FC got a bit better & better low end torque.... brows.gif

My next project will be to replace OEM plug to Denso IR plug then later change to K & N drop-in air filter....may b will try out some strongly recommended tyres for better FC too....I will b changing all above this Thursday...& will keep u guys posted if interested of d outcome.

Anyways, mine is auto & I only use Ron 97 Caltex
FC = RM57 = 270 - 300 km ( 90% city & 10% highway)

More to come...this Friday.... thumbup.gif
