yesterday my flx cvt engine died at traffic light. i don't know why, quite scared if died again. but so far that's the only one.

i drive normally, speeding and hard brake, aircond speed is 1 and half the temp switch. change from N to D without pressing brake..

nvr happens before, need to check with SC, this weekend is my 3rd service. will go to section 13 pj.

that's easy, just let it be till d next service, unless major prob

o really.. that's new to me. will ask the sc about this.
about the occurring trip to sc within a month, it can't be help other than trying to accept it and be cool, really depends on luck.

that DWEBBB is mine
currently not so good around 11km/l.. almost town drive. highway and long journey is much better.
not consistent mybe because town drive and 1.3, i tends to rev higher esp on hilly road and after traffic light.
another thing to consider is when i refill petrol, it might not totally full, hence calculation not fully reliable.
how i wish we hv onboard fc info

and yes 1.6 cvt might be better. 1.6 manual seems to be the same as 1.3 cvt of worst depends on driver.

try to reformat it, if not probably not suitable or broken file system.. at least can't be read by the HU

i'm not sure hv somebody mentioned about the file system.. if FAT32 should be working, but if NTFS, not sure able to read or not. try format to FAT32

achievable.. that translated to 13km/l and above.. or 400km for 1 full tank
easy to achieve that for highway drive. city drive possible but u need to drive slow and not rushing
just drive normally enough.. it won't drink petrol much. if wanna really save on fuel we have viva or ride motorcycle

this fc thing got a lot of factors affecting it.. some car manufacturer stated how they tested it.. some don't
and still, not many will be able to achieve the published fc.

done my 3rd service at proton section 13, pj. seems to be better than Mutiara Damansara. I brought my own oil Eneos Moly bought from lowyat forumer ([WTS] Eneos). Ask them to check rattling on rear left door. They did adjust door trim and bracket i believe, but the rattle is still there, slightly less than before. I won't bother to ask them again, just need to apply soundproof on all doors. That should fix it.

For Eneos moly oil, my car seems to be like the 1st day i receive it. Much more silent than before and better pick-up. Hopefully can also improve fc.

no, rm90 molybdenum 10w40

there's always a chance for that, but it's improving.. nowadays should be a lot better. some said it's the same as non additives oil..

one thing i noticed, proton don't hv their own engine oil. and i've read somewhere that not all sc using the same oil. so it's highly possible to bring our own oil and not void the warranty.

p/s: toyota engine oil is full syn.. that's what used in my mother's rush

stp brand? how much cheaper can u get? can do mega diy TT

i wonder if saga fl stock still available? flx se still rare on road.. and flx not as popular as saga fl

add me too.. huzaifa136 | Blue Rock | CVT | FLX Exec

does this applied to cvt too?

rev may not apply, but speed mybe? i means torque/speed, i've read before that saga 1.3 optimum power is around 90-100kmh

with cvt even tempting to go beyond that. at least 140km/h. but 110 just nice. too fast then need to concentrate more

in my experience on cvt when going back to hometown, highway at around 150kmh is a bit high fc than 90-100kmh on trunk road. that's the best fc i got around 15km/l. Both are better than city driving.

Added on March 27, 2012, 2:33 pm true. the faster u reach the optimum power (90-100kmh) the better. however it may not apply to stop and go traffic
