The FC meter cannot be trusted actually... have to culculate manual... You can ask the excel file from Jackyap84

Yes it is drive by wire. You will feel disconnected from the engine (only long timers and motorheads can tell the difference) if compared to conventional drive by cable. I prefer cable for sure. No choice. New tech. Get use to it!

when i drive the test drive unit,there's a delay..but when i drive my unit..it feel perfect woh..haha..Thanks for yur explainations ..

Hi, anyone here can recommend me a good brake pad for front? I looking at very less dust one.. The stock brake is making my rim black man..

yeah...i got that problem in July..but it happened to a back door...i just complained to sc when i did my service..the tech changed a piece of metal inside the door frame and ok already until now..

U need a good brake pad sure will have dust....this cannot be avoided....Maybe got Brake pad that doesn't produce dust....maybe cost few hundred....

U can google at Automotive Garage section for some good pad. Price range RM 110 ~ above...




Persona got so good FC?

and i thought I was the only one who has this problem going for 1k service hoping to solve the door lock problem and install
the orifice valve . any 1 install it recently ?

Hello all,

I own a 1 month old A/T PE h-line. Sometimes in traffic jam or about to exit any junction, my engine will suddenly died off. This happens average once a day. I have brought back to the SC and they say didnt find any problem with my car. Anyone know what is happening?

Certain Persona have sensor problem. i think is Crankshaft Angle sensor..Try ask the SC check that sensor. U can try google up previous version tread and scout the problem something like urs...Which SC u go to ?

-apparently can if done at authorized service agents. i did bring up the question. told me as long as got "chop" on the service booklet accordingly to mileage service requirements.

-wow sounds bad. i hope u can get it fixed soon...... it sure is pain in the ass when that happens man. new car some more.

I compiled a list of tips and some useful information and links from Persona Club v8 thread that can help all those first timers. I have yet to compile a Persona common problem list as Im not too sure of the problems myself. Maybe another forumer can help put a bit.


Tips for Persona car users
1)Most SC uses Petronas engine oil. To use other engine oil, exp Shell Helix HX-7, its recommended to go to authorized service outlets instead.
2)Stock brake pads are softer than Sponge Bob. Recommendation is to change it to ceramic brakes. Better performance and lesser dust. Best Form Ceramic Nao cost just RM63 for a set of front pads. Can get from former Kelvin (if im not mistaken).

Help to calculate FC
Register at http://www.fuelly.com/ and post it in ur siggy. Maybe in the next Version of the thread we can reserve the 2nd post for FC monitoring by forumers..
Or another ideal way to calculate is to
1) Fill full tank petrol and reset trip meter
2) Drive car like mad fella or slow like aunty..
3) When u need to refill the tank (no matter is only used half tank only or use till no more petrol in tank), top it back up to full tank (remember to note down how many litres filled in, using the price instead is subjective as petrol price fluctuates up and down and may affect future comparison).
4) Jot down mileage from previous full tank till refill and reset trip meter again.
5) Calculate (FC= Total mileage/Litres filled to top up back to full tank).
6) Post it up onto our club here for comparison. State ( XX% city driving / YY%highway) in XX KM/L format..

- just wondering what other cars uses this "drive by wire" system?

- how come the AT doesn't have the "overdrive" button? is it bcoz there's a 3rd gear shift?

- 2 maintain the engine in top condition does it needs 2 be "warmed" up in the morning or can juz start the car & drive off straight away?

thanks!

Hello, anyone interested to bulk on Blaupunkt AUX in (closing date next Tuesday 06/09/2010) pls PM me ya?

p/s: I believe only the older Personas will need them~

wow, only judging from the photo can differentiate 15' & 16'.

1 shop quoting a set of Weds Sport 16' replica rim @ RM 1,250 + 205/50/16 CC1 @ RM 230/pc

but i found that another 15' Weds sport replica also very nice, the 15' GY Assurance only cost RM 170+



Difficult to choose....

This 1 i 100% agree with you. The stock break pads only last me for Genting uphill + downhill X 2 (Too exited that time, busy potong all chap of vehicle except the famous tiga kayu). As a result the break pads kapuk within a single day.

But after changing a new break pads now no more dust already.


after installing this the cd player can play song on usb pendrive?
