QUOTE(mat79 @ Apr 24 2012, 06:59 PM) have u guys tried vw golf 1.4 tsi, 7 speed dsg. Maybe u guys shud try once a while, just for fun :-). And u will find the sluggish things appear in golf tsi, but not so much in polo tsi. But no seing anyone questioning how the heck they r doing the century timing then :-). thanks mat79..ya i did some research (google For tkaira, gud for u,thats why insist on test driving 1st. About the brakes feeling, (if not other related problem), a new brakes need burning in period,then it will performed 100%, and if the judder feeling only appear during hard brake,then its abs on work, if during slowly pressing the brakes, then,its need checking. About the loud sound, maybe the battery not tghten enough causing the movement hiiting the engine bay, but better check thoroughly though. The least thing was because of owners manual inside the glovebox hitting inside glovebox, causing the loud sound, but its really unique case. Erm, dont u guys dont want to try 16 inch gunmetal alloy wheel tune by r3 couple with bridgestone adrenalin re002 tyres which available at bridgestone kl outlets. Just enter prtn website, r3 accessories, then look at exora, then look at the rims n tyres sets n where it is available. About sound dampening other than preve, like saga, persona n etc, can try out vibramat that available at prtn branch sc, not auto dealer. Not promoting, just informing. A lot of work tonite. Haishh. |

QUOTE(ahaks75 @ Apr 24 2012, 07:51 PM) Congrats for those who got the car already. Hoping that anyone can check the engine noise/sound at low RPM. For me, the sluggish is okay since S mode can overcome that....but, I really hope that the engine sound can be reduce more. engine noise at low rpm good.. xbising..only when u change to s mode and u pedal to the metal then it bisingBro Mat97, what is the reason for the engine noise ? is it due to the lack of sound proofing ? but, there is one in the engine bay. Is it same with other car ? |

QUOTE(mat79 @ Apr 24 2012, 08:39 PM) about the engine noise, they called it booming sound. Actually, it is extensively reduce if u compare it with bold cfe...but the main focus is more on other noise and harshness like wind, tyre n road noise. The engine has noise, but not harsh. Want actually talk about things that people dont aware, but have to go for dinner. Off now. bro mat..how about wind noise coming in abot after 120 at certain angles form the A pillar..how r? |

QUOTE(mat79 @ Apr 24 2012, 10:38 PM) r3 use 205/45 r16, but u can still opt for 205/55 r16, re 001 has that tyre size. Better to go to bridgestone authorised dealers coz they are tyre shops, n normally accept trade in. If go to prtn, u need to sell ur standard rim to other shops or mudah.com coz they dont accept trade in. im prety certain it was wing whining as i was in D and sudah biasa bwk saga so maybe just need to retrofit back the rubber seal..if complaint knget it done ke?About the wind noise, can u check something for me, when u drive at 120kmh, try to off ur foot from throttle, if the noise is gone, then, it is cvt whining, not the wind noise. If even already off throttle(in d mode, in s mode, the whining is louder), and cvt whining is gone, but still has loud wind noise, then its the rubber, need to retrofit@change@seal back. If just really slow wind noise, then its normal. Its really hard actually to hear the wind accept already speed up to 140kmh@during windy day where wind is strong. Coz it happen before, people confius the cvt whining with wind noise. Just off ur foot from throttle at 120kmh speed, n make sure u r in d mode. If the noise gone,then its not wind, but cvt whining. Since u mention u drive in s mode, the whining is louder compare to d mode.

QUOTE(sp3d2 @ Apr 24 2012, 11:41 PM) will the car move in d mode without pressing the pedal? if yes, then how to stop it using hand brake in order not to open the clutch(make it remain close)? yesterday at the trafic lights i applied what kristof said.. u use the handbrake at stand still. then when the lights are about to turn green u u select D/S from N then press throtle a bit then let go handbrake .. so no lag la..its like driving a manual..cz if u press the brake then mau tekan minyak it will take sometime to engage the clutch etc thats y got lag..Added on April 25, 2012, 8:30 am QUOTE(WhitE LighteR @ Apr 24 2012, 11:45 PM) +1Added on April 25, 2012, 8:31 am QUOTE(dares @ Apr 24 2012, 11:49 PM) CVT overheats easier than AT, yes. but most CVT drivetrains come with cooling systems. so burn less fuel cz dont need to chase the torque thorugh the rpm range right?Anyway, for discussion sake, say your engine peak torque is at 4k rpm. In a ATand MT drivetrain, you cannot stay at peak torque because your RPM goes up and down as your speed increase while you traverse the gears. A CVT allows you to stay at 4k RPM as your speed increases, maximising acceleration and efficiency. This post has been edited by tkaira: Apr 25 2012, 08:31 AM |

QUOTE(earthdome @ Apr 25 2012, 08:39 AM) never drove auto before. i wonder how this "sluggish" feeling will affect me. i'm pretty sure i'll do just like that at traffic light. same as manual. actually its only from standstill..when ur on the move its very effortless Added on April 25, 2012, 8:46 am QUOTE(dares @ Apr 25 2012, 08:44 AM) Actually no need to move the shift stick I think. like that also can..is just that if u select N at standstill the cvt will cool off rite? moreover brakepads are not worn out too fast..correct or not? Keep in D/S, press footbrake to hold the car and open the clutch. When going to move, pull handbrake then releasing footbrake, press a bit of throttle then release handbrake.

QUOTE(dares @ Apr 25 2012, 08:50 AM) Hmmm if the clutch is opened (with footbrakes) then the gearbox should already be disengaged from the engine, and the CVT and the car should not be moving. haha yep anyone can confirm this? because IINM when press brake yes the car is not moving but when u want move on u press the throttle there is some lag rite? u floor it also dint move that fast.. so my method was addressing that lag la..or i misunderstood u anyone can chip in? |

QUOTE(dares @ Apr 25 2012, 09:01 AM) You misunderstood me la. ahh i see haha kk..i understand 1. stop car using footbrake, hold footbrake while stopped (open clutch, disengages CVT from engine, no power to the wheels.) 2. When going to move, pull handbrake, then release footbrake. (allow the clutch to close.) 3. Press a little throttle, release handbrake. 4. Profit. |
