Y are u all complaining about rattling sound? Either I am deaf or I got used to those sound.....not hearing anything except for grunting sound when press/depress brake pedal during extremely slow movement which should be normal wit all auto car......tik tik sound on using wiper is very normal I tink...

No weird sound from dashboard.....no backseat hooksound....no something lose sound from the boot.....basically quiet ride...tested from taman connaught back to home oug using mrr2.....no radio, no aircond, window all wind up.....really need one of u sit my car test test.......couldn't be I am tat lucky or I somehow I am subconsciously ignoring those sound.....

Just reached Johor Bahru from Penang.. This time I use caltex.. I fueled up just before I enter the highway, and set auto cruise at slightly below 120km/h so that the rpm ngam2 @ 3k rpm.. Traffic was damn smooth, not once I were needed to hit the brake.. Surprisingly, my fuel warning lights up when I reached 590km.. Walaoweh.. I guess, it can go further right? As after the warning lights up, next it will be blinking.. But didn't dare to wait until blinking since the next r & r will be 60+km apart.. Btw, I was driving alone anyway..

Oo.. Maybe yours is because have some city driving + extra passengers.. My extra weight is only due to nescafe + redbull.

I assume that you didn't on the air con since you grab a smoke during the journey.

During smoking off a/c, after finish let the smoke go out, then on a/c.. But seriously, cruising 120 all the way were damn tiring..

Well, City CVT VTEC I have one at home, it's really enjoyable drive in City... I can get 700KM on 32 litre basis where lights came on sweat.gif

The new City however, it's quite Honda Highway should be... If full city drive, only around 350KM on 32 litre basis, but on highway, I once traveled to Penang, only slightly 1 quarter, which I refueled in Caltex Georgetown, I calculated it returns 23KM/L...

Civic FD2 wise... I am getting constant average 10KM/L during city drive, and around 12KM/L for mix driving, and 16KM/L for full highway.

All using Caltex.
*
All this while im using primax95.. just pouring techron to test its performance on highway driving.. biggrin.gif

Short review on the AMSoil 100% Signature Series Fully Synthetic 5w-30 oil i have been using.
After changing the oil yesterday, total i have travelled around 200++ km ady..
So far engine feels smooth, however its just slightly not smoother compared to Castrol Edge Sport 0w-40 that I used previously. However thats just for the start.. See how the performance if the mileage around 5k km.

FC wise noticed a quite significant drop, constant 80-90km/h cruising gives an FC of around 6.5-6.8L/100km..
High speed wise the revs were more eager to go and FC i noticed and overall reduction also.. Will post more on FC later after i finish around 2 tanks.

Low end torque and pick up wise DAMN good! U can feel the car pulling easily at 1.5k rpm onwards.. The revs goes up smooth and fast.. Normally near my house there got a few slopes where i normally go up using 3rd gear at 60km/h at 2k RPM.. But now the same slope im able to use 4th gear at 60km/h at 1.5k+RPM only.. Somemore im using Shell petrol..  biggrin.gif
*
if i travel at constant speed of 90km/h, my FC will be 5.9L/100km.. and that is with Syntium800.. using primax95.. rclxub.gif

the fan will run automatically if the temperature is high even switch off engine...

fan running only no point.. need the water to run in the engine as well.. if u blow a hot steel, how long its gonna take to cool it off? if u pour water, will it be the same? sweat.gif

today i test drive PE, flx se and myvi 1.3 new one.. For PE, it is comfortable, the seat is just nice, and powerful enough. BUt i dont like the car it owes lower the gear even i slightly press the pedal abit.. feel like u gonna be very gentle on the pedal.. else will sudden lower gear.. and also the persona break, got that kind of sound >< i very dont like, can fix one? Like u press brake then will got tat krukk krukk or rubbing sound.. I think is not wear and tear problem.. flx se new one also got tis kind of sound.. very annoying.. and persona back seat is really suffering.. but seems like if h-line persona the back seat is little mroe comfortable to seat in.. 

myvi 1.3 same as my old myvi, except that it is less noisy and steering not bad for city driving. Din try long distance, cos around the test drive area no very long de road.. not much complain on myvi, except no boot but it is already a fact.. but myvi on bumpy uneven road not so smooth like persona, persona NVH is really best among the three..

then flx se.. the cvt need time to get use to it.. drive cvt very easy fall asleep, cos the car sound is da same lol.. no downshift or upshifting, the NVH is worst among all.. but no tyre sound la.. just campro engine sound sibeh loud.. and flx se on uneven or bumpy road have same feeling with myvi, perhaps stiffer abit the spring..

overall, i am pleased with myvi and persona.. but myvi car no proton car special sound effect.. persona alot of unexplained sound.. i guess i am more lean towards myvi.. but still dilemma on the boot space.. cos city drive only most of the time.. at Miri if wan travel, normally can only travel by air.. not much choice.. my work also not really need me drive to drive 100-200km outstation. I guess myvi se might be my choice la smile.gif but i really like persona comfort level...
*
in my opinion, in ur case, it is better to buy that turtle.. persona's built are heavy, when start-stop driving, definitely will cost u more if compared with the turtle.. in term of luggage area, maybe there is some limitations there for the turtle, but hey, do u need that extra space everyday? in east malaysia, its not a culture to travel far with a land vehicle right? usually people will prefer to travel by air.. and if die die also u want a luggage area, top up a bit and go buy a Vios Jspec.. Driving persona there at ur place wont bring u any good.. just my 2cents..

yaya.. normal if travel from town to town we opt for air travel, safer and faster. The nearest town is 200-300km away.. most often long distance driving would be going over to Brunei for sushi, maybe around 50-100km.. so far best compared to what u can have in Malaysia, even Japanese restaurant over west msia cannot compete.. the sashimi is fresh, juicy and the portion is big smile.gif
*
hehe.. its different when we drive in malaya here.. here got a lot of highways to speed up, and places are easily accessible by car.. i still encouraging u to buy a vios instead if its ok with ur budget or else go for a turtle.. u'll get a better milleage and most of all, its easier to maintain as the parts are built to last.. vios n turtle may not have a better NVH compared to a PE h-line, it is even more expensive, but its a better pick for u.. the acceleration are more responsive in town driving.. gearing is good.. got luggage compartment.. got that "fish" looks..

anyway, that was my opinion, maybe u can wait others to feedback and give u a better convincing facts to which u should buy..
