So the most fuel efficient (theoretically) is the IAFM+ with CVT eh? Hmm...
*
Nope. The CFE has an advantage of having all the max torque available earlier from 2,000 rpm till 4,000 rpm. 2,000rpm alone I think is good enough for a 70-80kmh cruise...

I intend to drive this car to LRT station for work. Park P3-21A at station, then take LRT to work.

I take LRT and KTM to KL. When the electrified double tracking project reaches Penang, I take ETS to Penang instead of driving. Mid Valley, take KTM better because I do not need to care about car park.

However, there are times that I need a car, especially in suburban area and bringing someone to go out for food hunt.

My life will be same as the German concept of "Auto haben, Bahn fahren"  nod.gif

haha, just kidding lolz.

In fact, if the mass transit is at least as good as those at Guangzhou, I will consider Park and Ride too.

QUOTE(Alingoo @ Mar 16 2012, 10:40 AM)
Correct me if I am wrong. If Littlefire is talking about euro2 that should referred to diesel engine and not petrol engine for Proton P3. I agree that out diesel fuel is of low quality but our petrol is good with ron95 and ron97 (if not mistaken europe use ron97/98) and they are unleaded fuel.
*
Those Euro things is calculated based on the harmful chemicals in the fuel, sulphur in particular and not limited to diesel only. Even the octane number is the same, but the amount of these harmful chemicals differs in each continent. Which is why, we doesn't get good stuffs like the Hyundai GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) because despite our fuel boost high octane ratings, it is simply not suitable for it.

Sorry..I dont get the point here. Are we talking about Diesel or Petrol. Euro 2 is for diesel only. It does not apply to petrol..correct??
*
both.

QUOTE(orcinus @ Mar 16 2012, 11:15 AM)
How come Mercedes CGI can use Msian fuel?
It is also Direct Injection engine type.
*
better and more precise engineering (which comes at a cost)

and not to mention the owners most of the time only owns the car for a relatively short period of time (2-4 years) before problems starts to appear.

If V12Kompressor is talking about Hyundai GDI then (if not mistaken) it is diesel engine not petrol engine.


GDI = Gasoline Direct Injection

Locally the Sonata are available with MPI which is more friendly towards "dirty fuels".

Our unleaded petrol is of International standard and I dont think there is sulphur in it.
*
yes, there is. Small amount of compared to diesel.

I know what you meant last time. Remember, the cvt powertrain was introduce with flx, and the first batch of flx had the cvt overheat issue, thats what i meant by design flaw that plagues the first batch, or the first models to use new tech or production methods.
*
You keep on saying first batch FLX got CVT overheat issue, which is a wrong info in the first place. doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

CVT warning indicator lights up for numerous reasons, not limited to overheat alone only.

QUOTE(dares @ Mar 17 2012, 02:04 AM)
Do tell.
*
it was due to faulty oil pump in certain CVT which causes lower than usual idling rpm which leads to potential engine stalling.


Added on March 17, 2012, 2:12 amFirst batch of FLX already comes with CVT cooler in the first place and therefore the chances of overheating highly unlikely.

I stand corrected then.

But the fact that a new car would inexplicable go into safe mode due to this, and Proton sheepishly "recalling" these cars, point to a flaw in the design or implementaation. I also vaguely recall a fuel hose placement issue that would cause the car to jerk, which was part of of things rectified in the "recall" exercise.
*
I dont think the fuel hose has connection with the jerk.

In fact I cant brain why they need to change the fuel hose. lol

Most people who I ask during the exhibition, think that the car spec is good on paper, but of course..the past is indeed, the baggage (obstacle) in getting in this car.

That said, about colour, solid white is the best, namely it highlights the side crease clearly.

When I asked to the staffs who manned this car.....these are following stuffs that I get...

There are several foreign components on this car.

For example, the steel for this car, is sourced from POSCO (Korea), only stamped in Malaysia. ESC system is from Bosch, transmission is from Punch, suspension from Kayaba (Japan), speedometer from VDO (or Continental?) Germany.

Tempted to get one, but I shall wait until 2013 and see how it goes.

hahahahaaa....

in D..its just normal auto(CVT)
in order to use the paddle shifter..most car u will need to shift to "S"
i dn't know much abt this car
but usually that "mode" is at the lowest/last shift of the GB
which mean P>R>D>S
*
but the P3-21A lowest/last shift is "L" woh
