Hi everyone. Am a newbie here, though have been reading quite a lot of topics in LYN since a few months back, before deciding to join.

Planning to buy EB sometime next year, when my loan for my current mpv, an avanza 1.3 manual, is finish.

Updated list for TS. Hope this is of use.

Like that one, huh? My 2006 Avanza has this alignment problem since day 1. SC said cannot fix, it is like that. I thought is was BS.

Maybe stop by at Gambang Water Theme Park for 1 day? Sorry off topic

Congratulation brotan. Enjoy your new ride with your family.

Need to remind azlan83 to upgrade you in the front page

Err... I meant upgrade as being from booked list to owner list...

Thanks for sharing the link, rapidbumi. Lots of interesting info on the cvt. I have never driven a cvt car before.

Thank you to all for the review of your new EB. Am monitoring EB's quality progression. Looks like slowly getting better.

Hope to get one next year. Wouldn't mind paying extra if Proton can include ESC into EB.

Maybe you can try recording the rattling sound and playback to the SC.

Can. How?:
1. Use no air cond 80% of the time
2. Manual transmission, free gear whenever nearing stop or going down hill (not steep hill like genting/cameron of course)
3. Avoid unnecessary pressing on the brakes by keeping a balance distance with the car in front. When car in front brake, release throttle pedal. I seldom need to press my brake if the car in front press their brake for about less than 2 seconds. If they brake > 2 seconds, I will ready myself to press my brake once I get too close
4. No sudden acceleration from idle. Need to be very disciplined. Accelerate slooowwly. Used to press the pedal a lot when I was driving my work horse Iswara.
5. Drive in JB Can't get this fc when I was living in KL. JB driving is more relaxed. Normally I maintain 80 to 90km/h on highway driving around JB. My car gives the best fc if I can maintain 3,000 rpm (80km/h) and below. Again, JB is relatively small compared to KL. 80km/h is fast enough to get you to your destination in a reasonable time.
6. As everyone knows, maintain a balance tire pressure

Not sure whether the fully synthetic oil and michelin tires plays a big part. I feel it does help in fc. I also send to authorized SC 100% of the time. It helps that my current company pays for my car's maintenance

Not expecting to get this fc when I buy an EB. Not an expert, just don't think a CVT can match manual transmission in terms of fc. I may be wrong. Just my 5 sen.

Can you pm me your SA's contact and PE branch? Planning to get an EB next year. Helpful to have a good SA contact on standby. Thanks.

Have not received your PM. Please PM again Tq.

nope, masih tak dapat message.

Ok with me. Post sekali gambar, leh?

Just joking! Kena pelangkung dgn my wife nanti!

Bro, which PE?

Not sure whether it is wise to pun her hp no here in the open, takut2 all sorts of people reading it, ada segelintir yg abuse. Kesian plak dia..

Totally agree with you on running away from Proton.

My first car is an iswara, 2nd kancil 850 auto for wife, 3rd an avanza.

Looking for a new and bigger mpv next year once my avanza's loan is complete at the less than RM100K price range. Was initially thinking of getting an innova, but with the price increase some years back, and exora coming out with a better performance engine, can't really find a better mpv.
