Guys,
I'm going for 1K service this tuesday at COE...

Do we need that magnet filter?
I heard when servicing, they will put that. Is it necessary? If not I dont feel like putting one

No you don't need magnetrap, nor do you need X1R.

You only need 3 things: Engine oil, oil filter and oil drain plug.

but the button beside the hazard button is the button to reset the alarm when anything goes wrong right ? wont that affect it ?
*
The original function of the button remains. Just that now it has an added function of unlocking the door.

I think both of u got some misunderstanding lar laugh.gif I think Huzaifa mean if its not broken, why fix it? He's happy camping in a stock FLX(which is good enough IMO)

Here is a theory I figured, you guys will have no problem with ONLY the FSB, because front ady got stabilizer pulling the tires down. If you understand what does it do when esoba travel more, meaning more bodyroll. When more bodyroll, you need sway bar to cancel it.

So, install no install FSB is solely personal preference.
*
BTW David, I gave your previous post some thought. So you current setup now allows you to apply more power aka more speed than before during corner without understeering, right?

What Calvin_kenni said.

Also, do try some other brand thumbdrives (formatted to FAT32) as some members have reported that their USB ports are choosy about what brand of thumbdrive your cucuk into them unsure.gif unsure.gif

icon_idea.gif not exactly, but almost as you described. Before corner must complete all the braking,heel & toe(if you are lhwj,I can't.tried several times on my BLM jerk until I vomit). My current setup allowed me to do early acceleration because I can adjust my steering during the corner. icon_idea.gif I'd say my current setup losses some speed before cornering, but gain back a lot of apex time and acceleration when exiting corner.

The above may not applicable for ONLY FSB. Also, if you didn't push your limit during corner, you basically do not have the above effect. I suggest you go out do a few more round of crazy cornering before you install FSB only you can feel the difference.

All I can do is shift to L. So exciting sad.gif

Think u got the idea wrong, with CVT you actually benefit more since you don't need to bang your clutch. I would say if you have the exact same setup, just hit the D & slam the corner. I believe you'll get to enjoy more than any manual/4AT cars as you can concerntrate on steering action & pedal works!

Yea, but doesn't looks so "pro" lor tongue.gif

BTW you joining us on the 14th?

I just had the opportunity to drive around in an  Inspira 2.0 CVT. I have to say the car is a very good car. Handles well, smooth as silk and ample power on tap. thumbup.gif

Even more surprising for me is, after driving the wonderful car that is the Inspira and getting back to the reality of my Saga BLM, I'm still happy with my car. wub.gif laugh.gif

I test drove the Inspira 1.8CVT before, quite underwhelming actually. But it was just a short drive, no chance to try on highway roads hmm.gif

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ Jul 8 2012, 05:30 PM)
I see. Not sure how the 1.8 is, but the 2.0 felt damn good. I also whacked the throttle a bit to test power and the car accelerated to 140+-very quickly. Really loved it.

test drove the saga 1.6 flx se ytd..

one thing i noticed is that the engine is very loud even i just pedal for a bit..

i asked the sa bout it.. he said that it has sth to do with valve ?

and many others complaint bout this too.. is it true?

other than this.. the car is good..
*
Saga has zero sound insulation, that's why.

The good thing is, in speeds under 90km/h, the engine can hum away at 2.1k-2.2k RPM, which is relatively silent. This is different from MT and AT where the engine sound pitching up and down may be annoying to the passengers. It is during hard acceleration when you press it to 3k and above that the sound becomes very intrusive.

Another thing is the tire roar, especially when cruising on highway.

Good morning avbody , first of all , i wanna thanks all of you here for providing infomation that can be live saving , yesterday i was on my way back to kl from my hometown , was driving around 130-140km/h , reaching seremban area there were some jam and the car in front me made emergency braking and i was also force to emer also . After that , my CVT warning light lights up , thanks to the info from dai kor V12 so that i know when CVT light we need to stop down and let it cool down before start driving again , if not for the info , i might just die at highway yesterday , so i wanna say thank you all , you guys ROCKS!!!!

If emergency braking, most likely is your clutch-slipped or your CVT belt slipped (because your wheels slowed down faster than the gearbox/engine, before your clutch could open fully...) that cause the CVT indicator to light up, not overheat.

Yep, it's probably nothing, just the TCU going into safe mode to protect the CVT in that situation. thumbup.gif If you'd like you can send your car to SC to check the error code to see exactly what triggered the safe mode.

Coz his car is 4AT, you are CVT. I just press and hold the RPM at 1.5k for 30 secs-1minute, then boleh drive dy.
