btw, today send my car for checkup.

- i mentioned about the difficulty in starting. they said they cleaned the [b]throttle body. So far, it is easier to start, but will it occur again? rolleyes.gif
[/B]
- i told them about the squeaky front suspension. they said they oiled it. hit some bumps in shah alam, noise is still there. doh.gif

- informed them about the noisy aircon compressor. they say its normal. doh.gif

conclusion? the guys are COE are degrading.

thatday i asked how much to change the steering oil, they said RM130 like that..rm30 is steering oil, and rm100 is for th oil to flush...

anyone mind to teach me how to remap proton saga blm Siemens VDO 2000 ecu ?  icon_question.gif  cry.gif
*
cannot remap...but can reflash...

go to dktuning.com, they can reflash but might cost few K..i prefer piggyback like unichip, ems-1, smt6/8..cheaper and can be mapped/tuned anytime you want at cheaper cost..

hye...wanna ask you all....is it normal for FL1.6 rpm when the speed is 100km/h and the rpm is 3000rpm?
*
normal because its using same gearbox as 1.3L auto

so then no advantages of buying it...damn....  mad.gif  mad.gif

not really bro...1.6L is for power and pickup ,this is achieved by retaining 1.3L gears and adding bigger engine, you ask any dragger or racer they will opt for 1.3L gearbox for better acceleration, but not for fuel economy of course.

have you driven any 1.3L auto car, you will feel glad u own 1.6fl.

not really
since rpm same
if can go further
u will boom ur gearbox

actually the threorical top speed using 1.3L gearbox is around 200kmh, as long you dun go beyond 200kmh, the 1.3L runs out of breathe after 160kmh...the 1.6L fl will be able to achieve 180kmh or beyond easier and faster than 1.6L auto persona...because of the higher final drive...

based on proton official web, iafm has lower fc compare to cps
7.0l/100km for waja cps 1.6
6.0l/100km for saga iafm 1.3
but it may due to power to weight ratio also.
for my opinion, proton should cut off IAFM and all proton car should equipped with CAMPRO CPS laugh.gif

Added on October 12, 2011, 8:44 pm
the only problem is the gear ratio same as 1.3 auto
i expect it equipped with persona engine and its gearbox
but at the end only engine rclxub.gif

erm thats why saga is cheaper, but u can think that, saga is more for spirited driving, while persona for relax highway driving..

i think i guessed wrongly
1.6L can  achieve 190+kmh
since manual 1.3 can go for 190kmh for top speed@6500rpm?
and the rpm for auto is lower than MT
so, for 1.6l, it may achieve 200kmh laugh.gif
another issues is this car 1.6l has similar fc with 1.3l auto which is very high fc if compared to persona auto thumbup.gif
spirited driving can try MYVI 1.5 EXTREME rclxm9.gif
*
ya, the 1.3L has low torque, the higher final drive is to compansate this..giving better drivibility...but both of this can lead to higher fc..

hopefully 1.6 cvt will be released soon thumbup.gif

reflash = reformat ? sorry i noob here... sad.gif
*
ya, reformat with tuned map. it will be permanent and you need to pay a huge sum of money each time you reformat

i suggest you to install piggyback like works ems-1 instead. it will cost you 1.2k for the chip, installation and tuning is around rm400..

after that, if you need to retune, it will cost you around rm250 each session

if you dont need it you can remove it and sell it and leave your car with stock ecu.
