ha..that is the hospital where my baby was delivered in April 2012.


AES can capture car with speed 268kmph..

SOS


Talking about AES, my friend's friend got 13 tickets since AES launched. The funny thing is, the road he traveled daily, he was captured in the middle lane in most of the cases when he went to check the pictures. He asked the polis, the polis said if there are three cars in a row when AES snapped the picture, the middle and the fast lane will be issued a saman. Where else the slow lane escaped. How can this be fair?

optimus?

here is malaysia optimus


Attached thumbnail(s)

instead of cuti-cuti malaysia, i think he and other CM have been to busy-busy malaysia...

can PM me the SA phone?

thank you thank you

That one Optipus!!!

haha...Malaysia version ma...

From my few days observation, I think my FC for this tank will be much higher! SID indicates 12.8L/100km
I have to be even more lighter foot. Maybe the SC give me that 15W/50 oil that cause higher FC?

Why you ask them whether got recall power windows? Where did you got the news from?
For mine, both front windows are working fine, just a little "tight" feeling when winding up.
But both rear windows are quite powerful and fast.

Bro Arthur, are you happy with this EON SC at Sungai Pinang...? I think I will change to this SC for my next service since they can also do update for the car and this is what I preferred. Do they charge you any unnecessary items (thus, extra fees) in your bill? How's their working attitude?

Regarding 180km/h top speed on your updated TCU, I've noticed also when driving at 80km/h, the new RPM is now close to 2K compare to previous version at around 1.5K, maybe the new program simply shift the entire ratio down a tad to make it more responsive? If I can request my own TCU setting, then I would hope they keep the current (latest) ratio for speed under 60km/h for more agility on city driving and gradually shifting the ratio to previous version for higher speed cruising such as 70-80km/h onwards.

i blindly believe that for a given internal combustion engine,
range extender has better efficiency.

RE: fossil fuel (engine) --> electricity (battery) --> electric motor

Conventional: fossil fuel (engine) --> transmission

assuming fossil fuel engine of 40% carnot eff., 10% transmission losses..
while electric motor has lower losses than conventional transmission.

Hmm, from your experience and Arthur's, I'd say I would decline the update and stick with the original mapping. Currently, it takes me to drive like a mad man to get higher than 10L/100 km. My normal driving I can get 8.8 - 9.4 L/100km easily.

can u pm me the SA number?

give it sometimes, it will be back to normal. New tcu need time to adapt ur driving style n correspond with engine ecu mapping.

They are doing it via software, but i think at 100kmh, shud be more or less the same rpm on overdrive.

I think, previously, its programmed to entered overdrive earlier, just rely in engine solely torque. But since many complaint about initial acceleration, so, the deffered a bit on that, only entered the od when the speed is stabilize. Its like putting s mode until nearly 2k rpm, but beyond that, back to d mode. But since some alteration on it strategies, better rev up by put the the resistance point higher, altered fast off n pull away strategies to giving better pickup, then, the whole thing will behave differently.

Remember when someone mentioned want bold cfe setting in preve cfe?

However, on the top speed, maybe the upcoming ecu mapping, can help it. But still not available yet.

The engine oil is also heavy for city driving at 15w 50. If permitted, next time bring own fs engine oil rating 5w30@5w40. If want to use semi, just stick with 10w 30.

it is normal everytime after use new TCU, FC will high for some time, just like u just got ur car...
(highlight this for other forumer to notice this...)
after some time, after few tank refuel, FC will lower time from time...

i would say better than most Edar sc, i done my second service there, since then, i just stick to there only...

i got the news from allen, he "owns" a edar sc in ipoh...u see la, tell u come TT u dun wan, lost a lot of precious info....
no la, he got share out in fb prevoc...

that is correct, 80km/h ady near 2k rpm...if 100km/h, 2k rpm or 2.1k rpm...
during D, if u press brake and waiting at traffic lights, the rpm lower to 600....
be careful when u do reverse from D....for example, u want to do 3 point turn, when u want to engage R, do it slowly, otherwise, probably u will face mati engine...
i faced this right after i apply new TCU...

in ATI graphic card got overdrive i know la, but for car overdrive, i dun understand what it is, pls enlighten me...

Overdrive in a normal AT gearbox is the highest gear, also known as the cruising gear. It is used for high speed cruising that allows the car to cruise at high speed with low RPM, at the expense of acceleration response.

thanks dares, now i understand what mat79 is talking about

why my dealer proton SC say cannot sendiri bring engine oil, if not will void 5 yrs warranty. I was like WTF? Should i call iCare to complain?

Certain SCs allow, such as COSE, but they will make a notation that you brought your own oil. While it wont outright void your warranty, if touchwood something does happen to your engine and you wanna claim, they can point this out and make your claim difficult, maybe accusing you for using fake oil.

So I guess if you wanna bring your own oil, get it from a reliable shop and make sure you have a receipt for it.

Otherwise just stick with the EO offered by the SCs.

Ps: I have called iCare before re this issue, their stance is that they allow, but will not be held responsible for anything that happens to your engine thereafter.

so basically iCare also means tat u just going to void ur warranty anyway..
