Helooo..
I'm just booked 1.6FL, waiting for registeration on 24 june 2011. so tempting to drive her..

Thank for reply, Mr Alien.
I olso duno how it feel driving saga BLM or FL, never tried before, hope it feel good as its look. Last thursday just viewing new myvi.. but more pricy than saga FL. Premium 1.3 manual just cause RM47k++ rather than Saga 1.6FL RM46k++. Lucky I'm just book the FL a week before.. .

I'm used to owned wira 1.6 a/b manual in year 2000. its millenium model. Wira weight is 1060kg rather the 1.6FL is 1075kg. Its show that BLM body more heavier than wira. That cause feeling under power to BLM with 1.3L engine. But BLM should more stable on high speed.

I would suggest to use 10W-30 or 5W-30 engine oil. My thirsty oto unser use this kind oil, give resonable fc. I'm will used this light weight oil on my 1.6fl.

10w-40 olso thick oil. The measurment it last no 40 which ist refer as 40 weight oil at operating temp. 30 weight oil is better for fc & performance. Small car as viva & kancil use this type engine oil. This not harm your engine unless your engine was high milage as 200k km.. Just try it. Petronas syntium offer 5w - 30 / 4liter for rm97.00

That is semi syntetic oil. Syntium 800 5w-30. Price is RM97.00 for 4liter pack. The fully syntetic I Think is Syntium 3000 0w-30 if I'm not wrong. The price is RM200 +.

I'm just drive betwee 80~90km/h on ordinary road & 110km/h on highway...that standard tyre ducaro ga just enough for me..lol

Good morning..

My 1.6FL registered already.. got running number only "2531"<< ok ka? hehehe.. But I'm reached home at 7.45pm, showroom/office closed at 7.00pm.. huhuhu. Still cannot feel to drive it.. tomorow 8.30am I'll be there helping them open the showroom...hehehe

Thanks zeone,
Never mind, I dont want to do checking the car in a rush..

a few hundred km over the schedule will not harm the engine. unless you try to extend the oil change up to 10,000km with mineral oil. (I thought SC just used mineral oil.)

Yes, can use it. It not harm your engine. 5W 30 mean, in cold weather which below 5W = 5(F) in winter, the oil will freezing. So if state 10W = 10(F) the oil will freezing. That mean 5W much more better oil than 10W. The last no 30 = mean 30 thick oil on operating temperature (degree celcius). if the no was exp 10W 40.. that mean 40 thick oil on operating temperature. Let say the oil you bought was 5W 30, mean 30 thick oil. This will give less resistent, more pick-up. That is the reason small/compact car using this kind oil.
Btw, on my owner's manual booklet, have revised on using type oil. Proton recomended 10W30 for my 1.6FL. Anyone on 1.6FL can confirm my statement. I dont hv time to upload the revised page by proton right now. May be next time.
Btw my 1.6FL shown 289km while turn to last bar on fuel indicator, but my wife just refill RM40..hehehe so i hv no idea how much little has gone for 289km.

Lower API Classification : When Proton recomended gred API "For Services SJ", & you are using LOWER than SJ , exp SG/SF/SE. That wil void the warranty.

Hello
Just done 1st service at 1054km. I'm using Petronas Syntium 800 SAE 5W30 , can feel better acceleration. will upadate FC later. During running period just manage 30L/289km, 30L/260km daily city driving (wife + 4 kid/ 12~5years old).

Refer to my post as below, for 1.6FL.

That FC figure was taken on run-in period, beside the car is using in city driving condition (school/office/home) with 1 adult + with 4 kids (12 ~ 5 years) every day. Hopefully getting better fc after this.
