why make recall? u go services your car at SC right? and also its not a must to update the ECU.. they will only do the ECU thing if u agree...

some might wanna stay at current ECU.

actually preve proton made it Euro 5 emission standard, thus giving a smooth pickup rather than lunging out like normal car, hence the sluggishness, as the worst FC and emission is during launching the car. U check and see, even Civic only Euro 3 standard, the higher the standard, stricter emission control, Euro 5 got restrict amount particle in air from exhaust.

actually this is what the dealer boss told my dad, but i think it makes sense la.. maybe also due to the fact that campro is not a really really efficient engine, not like VW TSI engine or ford one..

I heard Proton tune previous ECU with sluggish pick up just to increase the FC of the car.
But if they can improve both pick up and FC altogether, there is no more reason the previous owner to stick with previous tune. But like you said, we gonna wait and see the result. If Proton SC can provide free service to retune the ECU into better one, that would be damn good.

Guys,

Gonna go for my 1k service soon. Called Seremban proton edar today, their booking is full till 18th august. Probably will go to a authorised service center only. Or u guys think I should still wait till the service center has a spot?

While driving up or down hill, there is some slight jerking of the car but the car engine won't die off, while pickup after a complete stop is slow compare to my old myvi. Anyone mind giving me some heads up?

My chasis no is 103xx
