So I finally managed to take my mother's spanking new FLX for a ride today.

The car interior is ok.Nothing to shout.But I have the feeling that she has to change the fabric seat cover after few years because I think it'll get dirty just like my father's Waja.
Quite smooth ride.After you engage to D & take your foot from brake the car doesn't launch itself like Honda City.Which for me is good thing.
The overall noise is ok for me.Sum 41's Hell Song @ volume level 13 certainly helped keeping the external noise down. laugh.gif
No f***** foot rest!!?? How cheapskate can you be Proton? I'm looking for a foot rest now.
Is it possible to increase the sound level of the reverse gear & signal engaging sound?The sound is too soft for me.Sometimes I don't even know whether I have changed to R.Don't suggest me to reduce the volume of radio laugh.gif

Overall it was enjoyable ride.My family had fond memories with our original Saga.I hope this generation Saga will be the same.

Foot rest? Use the floor...
Reverse Sound? Decrease radio volume

ABS worse, the braking distance is actually further than normal brakes with no ABS...provided that the driver actually knows how to brake properly without ABS.

Problem is all the demos they both slam the brakes which causes the car without ABS to skid. If done properly, no skidding will occur icon_rolleyes.gif


Added on April 1, 2012, 8:35 pmAlthough...the benefit of ABS is can 'corner' during 'e-brake'.

But that can be also done with no ABS...but must have proper knowledge smile.gif

Dugong = latest version of Vios.
You compare side view of current Vios & dugong.You'll know that they have uncanny resemblance.

Peh...

I wonder how much will it cost for proper Saga soundproofing including the wheel arch.
Maybe some workshop should do some kind of package deal for this.With the growing number of Saga on the road they should be able to make some money.

There is no way to eliminate the DBW delay. I have installed the D1 spec Throttle controller at EA. But still get the DBW delay.

Lack of soundproofing can be a good thing.

We can identify problems earlier before they get worse smile.gif

I thought BOT was a good idea...until I read the horror stories of Campro engines failing after a few months of BOT.

But then I read about superchargers...this seemed to be a more viable option smile.gif

p/s: If TS hated FC so much, I think it's legit to have the fuelly stuck at the 1st post. Whenever anybody ask, we can conveniently direct them to study the 1st post instead of wasting pages like now. It's like everybody also looking for an opportunity to spam the thread. I hope the next TS(dares) will consider this. Provide as much information on the 1st page, such as engine oil grades, service center, service guideline, recommended accessories shop, recommended tire shop, recommended BOT project... etc etc.
