yeah, same with my FLX, when the accelerate pedal is pressed around 1k rpm, the car not really move...
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... i wondering, if we can ask the SC to remap or reprogram the timing for CVT...
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...

the USB stick should format to FAT or FAT32 format only... (NTFS format not confirmed)...

finally passed my 1000km, time for 1st service... wanna ask here, normally how much they will charge us for 1st service? (total of everything part changed)...

drove more than 100km/h not even touch 2.5k of the rpm...

today drove to JB from KL, when achieved 1000km, i accelerate more up to 110 to 120km/h, the rpm still playing around 2500 to 2800 rpm...
yeah, even drove up to 120km/h, the whole car still stable, noise extremely low
this afternoon re-fuel my car to full tank only RM47 (trip meter show 357KM), which is 13 cent per KM...

no no... i let my brother drive it, while i take picture from back.
i took this photo since i just back from langkawi trip, while my brother fetch me from airport using my car...

for alignment, i think any tyre shop is same...

why must use SAT mode for genting route? SAT mode is use to simulate 6-speed transmission feeling only, no different in performance
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)

Lotus Ride/Handling? If you look at the FLX brochures, there's no more 'Lotus' Ride/Handling but replaced with 'Proton' Ride/Handling...

same window vendor from Saint-Gobain :


i manage to drive up to 403km in a trip until 1 bar of fuel tank left :


black FLX spotted near Nilai exit (North-South Highway),
plate no. start with WVR... wondering is that belong to any forumer here... :

current speed is 120km/h

yeah... hope so, btw i havent send for 1st service yet.
i wish i able to get to 450km per trip after service

accelerate smoothly from 0 to 80 below 2K rpm, once upon 60 to 80, can accelerate more up to 110km/h, highest speed not more than 110km/h unless overtaking car

10% city, 70% major road, 20% highway

finally done my 1st service at Jalan Kebun SC near Klang... costed me RM153 for all changed part.

i also complain to them about the transmission jerking during slow drive (happen when traffic jam), they also can't answer me what's wrong with it. they only suggest me go to the main service centre beside the KESAS highway to re-programme and re-tune the timing for CVT...

btw, just now i went to Kapar, after my 1st service.
what i did, i press the pedal to the floor, the top speed i manage to reach is 170km/h @ 5,200rpm on straight road, but i slowed down my car due to overpass/flyover bridge (worry speedtrap )...
i think this car can go over 170km/h during down hill

during high speed drive up to 170km/h, i feel the car still stable for me. but i heard some comment from the forumer the car not stable when speeding, maybe due to the tyre alignment and balancing.

not exactly the correct distance, we can go earlier or later... for me 1000km 1st service, i drove til 1500km+ then only go for service

nop, for 1st service, 1000km

yeah, my next service will be 5000km cause i'm using semi syn oil...

for me, i travel to work each day need 80km (Mon to Sat)...
1 week = 480km
1 month = 1,920km
1 year = 23,040km
* not include travel go shopping/dating/trip yet...

the car still jerking when moving slow? (2km/h to 5km/h)(jam situation)

quite a number flx (cvt) user here. i'm one of them.
cvt can give us better fuel consumption if you want to compare between auto transmission and cvt
else go for manual sure lower fuel consumption...
so far, the driving feel so smooth, won't feel the changing of gear

most of the time i used Shell, only use Petronas when critical...

+1 support your idea...

yeah, that's right... yesterday i send my car for my 1st service, they ask me i want Shell or 'new' Petronas engine oil? the Petronas engine oil is cheaper than Shell for RM4 only...

yesterday on the way driving home, i try SAT mode when climbing up hill, the transmission is much better...

you're right... we have the right to reject the car if there's defect, but however, after they fix it, we still getting the same car, only defect part being fixed or replaced...
