pump RM30 run till blinking = 220km = 13.9 km/l Nice  rclxms.gif

pump RM55 run till blinking = 320km = 11 km/l I also get this figure often. Normal I think.

think they cant force customer to purchase products if customer doesnt agree to.

honestly i have no experience servicing car at PROTON SC..especially COE. this is going to be my first time with the FLX..
so, I'd glad if u guys can give advice if there's anything unnecessary that I can avoid during 1st service..

i have 1 question on campro engine...since SAGA FLX is my first Campro-equipped PROTON car, I notice that the engine roars when I switch-on aircond.

I know it's normal, but can't help wondering what actually contribute to the noise..
is it because less sound-proof at hood? or that is the normal sound for the aircond compressor..(no wonder A/C so sejuk). What is the different between PROTON cars HVAC system & other car-makers? Why there is big difference when it comes to the compressor sound between other car?

hopefully anyone expert on this can answer. just want to gain some knowledge about my flx smile.gif

i got a flx se as my first car.. i dont really know much bout car.. can u help me out?? i am reaching 1000 km..

1. the 1st time i pump petrol rm50 can go 280km but 2nd time i pump rm56 can only go 250.. do u know why?

2. i pump petrol till full, the petrol gun jump n stop d but my petrol bar still not full, left 1 bar kosong..

3. and i find the transmission not very smooth, like when i wan to accelerate, the car suddenly choke forward, when i let it slow down, it choke abit also.. issit common??

sorry for the lousy explaination, very new to car

I have the same problem with no2. the fuel pump stops, but the tank is not full (according to the indicator..1 bar missing)
still wondering what's the problem..why can't pump in full like other cars.. the pump will stop automaticly..must pump manually slowly until indicator full..

other than that...my FLX no issue at the moment. very smooth driving in the city. thumbup.gif
