Ok  blush.gif , I did not know that....it seems Preve start button steps even worse than I thought....question is why implement this feature that does not help in anyway for a modern car but actually makes it worse...
*
Actually is insert key fob -> press button with brakes done already.

They came up with the process to see if they can avoid the OWV issue.

EDIT : TBH, I also dunno why Proton dun do it like Forte, no need to insert key fob doh.gif

*
The different figures are due to reprofiled cams and retuned ECU to accomodate the CVT, nothing to do with the IAFM component. so if they do manage to fit the IAFM+ component to your persona, the figures will likely be the same.

Those interested in doing insulation can PM me or post here so I can do a BULK for it. Forget about installing those stuff urself and saving a few bucks. I have tried doing it before and its hard work. Better left to the pro..

Btw im planning to do it only somewhere around end of oct or nov only.  biggrin.gif

Saga can bulk with Persona kah tongue.gif Saga price is the same?

AND I like your timeline (end of oct/nov) rclxms.gif

After considering the advantage of IAFM vs CPS, I'm glad they actually use IAFM instead of CPS. Although CPS are stronger at higher speed, the major weakness of PE is actually at the lower end torque. IAFM helps a lot at low and mid-end torque improvement. CPS improve from mid to high end only. With CPS starting with total lack of power until it reach mid-end, proton made the right decision for the mass market usage.

Ever notice Preve don't use CPS anymore...their turbo version practically blast CPS out of the way liao...So only IAFM for the low-mid end and turbo for the massive mid-end torque remains for mass market buyers.
*
CPS doesn't have IAFM, but have VIM which is an electronic controlled version of IAFM. While lower end torque still loose to 4G18 (but that's because 4G18 is SOHC where as Campro is DOHC), but it is comparable to IAFM.

Proton did away with CPS for CFE because CPS could not meet emmission requirements.

one thing there is a misconception.. Even if Vios handles lousily. It still can go around corners. It still can accelerate hard due to combination of good low end torque and lightweight.. which can consider double advantage over PE. and since in car park, the speed of travel is low.. most most around 60kmh only. it might look like fast going round corners but its due to psychology due to the place being in a enclosed environment with a lot of stationary cars around. When i drove the Vios.. It felt so light and nimble and revvy.. Eventhough its not good at the high end. 90% of the time a Vios engine will beat a PE engine in utility usefulness..

*
Yep, same goes for myvi. Their throttle response is way better than campro's shitty DBW, low speed acceleration the dugong pwns any 1.6 campro, including the Saga FLX SE. Trying chasing one in a carpark, you will see how clumsy our throttle response is.

This make the dugong and the sampan great city cars, even if it has sucky handling at high speed.

It's the same engine as the Myvi, which is a de-tuned version of the engine used the Avanza and Rush.
