Can discuss tips to have good FC? tongue.gif

pump tires everyday make sure maintain 210~220

during traffic jam, tolak kereta

yeah, same with my FLX, when the accelerate pedal is pressed around 1k rpm, the car not really move...  sweat.gif
one thing i don't like about the CVT is when we going slow (traffic jam), the CVT act weird like chocking when moving slow...  shakehead.gif i wondering, if we can ask the SC to remap or reprogram the timing for CVT...  hmm.gif
btw, i just fuel-up my car again, 3rd time now. RM47 for 357km. From the calculation, 13 cent per KM, and 7.0 L/100KM...  thumbup.gif

That was due to rubber band effect.

Check your tires, especially the front make sure it is 210~220. Before this I experience same problem. After fill in recommended tyre pressure, release brake only, car will move already. Now I even got more confidence to "curi ayam" during traffic jams. tongue.gif Secondly is to find your throttle pedal sweet spot. Plus with timing to press the throttle after the CVT software finish "calculating", bumper to bumper crawl will be jerk free. smile.gif

BTW, looks like your ECU has learn to drive economically. Mine 100km/h 2500~2600rpm. haha

FLX at 120 kmh /2.5-2.8 rpm is the engine quieter than BLM/FL at 120kmh? jealous...

yup. Interior also more insulated. biggrin.gif
Today drive 120 also tak rasa macam 120.

why must use SAT mode for genting route? SAT mode is use to simulate 6-speed transmission feeling only, no different in performance  hmm.gif
if use SAT mode, your rpm will keep raising to higher and lower and higher, this will result in higher FC (if i not mistaken)  shakehead.gif

on that route, the transmission will just stay on mid rpm (around 3000~4000rpm), which is the part where peak torque is available. The S4PE's sweet spot is at 4,000 rpm. Stay on that sweet spot, not only your car could climb without any hassle, every single drop of fuel is utilized to produce the engine's peak power. The SAT software is quite intelligent as it will not shift up unnecessarily and hence, lesser power loss.

In D mode, it keeps on staying at 1,500-2,500 rpm and needs a great deal of throttle mashing in order to climb. Unless you intend to climb from Gohtong Jaya to the peak at speed below 20km/h, by all means just go ahead and stay at D.

guys, just now i forgot to put down my handbrake while driving and i only realized it after driving for 5-6 km. I really feel worried and scared that i have done some damage to my brake and engine. Worst still i just got it for a day. Really sakit hati now. Should i take my my car for check...I know i'm noob cry.gif
*
5-6km considered short lah,so dont worry nothing major will happen.
Stupid Americans does that all the time and their mileage could stretch up to 200km+.

Take this as a lesson so that next time you'll remember to release the handbrake. In fact I did the same mistake too with my father's car. Till now the car is running strong.

Since you're driving a CVT, make it a habit to check the handbrakes with your left hand. I put my left hand on the handbrake lever all the time when I'm cruising. Unless I'm having my nicotine intake, then my left hand is on the wheel. tongue.gif

i tested with the handbrake fully pulled. Then i change into D mode and the car still moving. How come like no effect only? Will it be safe if i park it at the slope?

absolutely safe when you put it in P.

Continuous Variable Transmission

Manual Transmission

thats why some SA will still say Saga FLX AT. Don't want customer to confuse. In fact when I bought my car, the SA told my parents "it has new engine which has CVT". Lucky my knowledge is better that that SA's.

1 question, the car got ashtray (aka coins storage)????

The center got one round round thing which looks like a water tumbler. That's actually can be used as ashtray also.

ya ya ya....i agree... icon_rolleyes.gif  thumbup.gif  praise for what we can afford ....basic of life....but, correct me if i'm wrong but looks like that CVT lack of response....see the full acceleration 100kmh  and rpm goes more than 5k....
*
that paultan is in a test vehicle, of coz will mash that throttle since it is not his car and petrol. I've managed to bring the car up to 120km/h till date and the rpm never goes beyond 3000rpm.

a lot people thinks that high rpm is co-related with high speed due to the nature of conventional auto/manual transmission cars, but that's not the case for CVT.

so,that CVT can runs on high speed with low RPM? sounds like economical FC and less engine burden perhaps?

yes. and furthermore, less power loss at the transmission means more power to the wheel.

i think probably there's a problem with my fuel indicator la...yesterday after pump full tank it's already dropped 1 bar just after 30+km. Then just now, i try pump petrol again to see how much i've used but surprisingly the pump stop after RM5.40. Then when i check the fuel indicator again it's still 5 bars...is it normal for new car to get used with the fuel level or should i be concerned...sorry coz i'm very noob in car...just got my 1st car unsure.gif
*
yes, it is normal. The Campro will be more fuel efficient after the first and/or second service.

My first tank also, 3 bars last around 109km only.
