But i did constant 110kmph during my trip to melaka from KL non stop for 450km during my 2nd day with PC and no problem.

to deeplydeluded,

Welcome to theh club. ^^

Yup.. but still its safer to not rev the engine too hard at initial stage.

As worries it will not goes well with engine but then we use EV most the time as well. ^^ . So half half ^^

But i did constant 110kmph during my trip to melaka from KL non stop for 450km during my 2nd day with PC and no problem. Just dont push too hard will do I guess.

Wow.. my FC keep dropping to 14km/l during jam. Is this normal ? But when get into road with 60km/h to 70km/h The PC will use more EV and better FC.

Still exploring new technique to drive this car.
Anyone got same problem with me. When u put d in very slope hill the PC will reverse ?

guy, for those already disable their hand break sensor (boleh tengok video) please check your gps, the gps cannot run synchronously when the car was cruise..but video can running and can make a call also when moving...happen at my car today after to that things...
help..help...

Hi Guys. Newbie here. My Aqua Mica will be ready on coming Wednesday. Me, like louis198920, going to pick up my car from Penang, then will drive it back to KL on the next day. And, like louis, I'm concern on the engine breaking in issue.
I made some research through the net (the best auto advice source i have since I don't know any automotive engineer), and I found a few contradicting suggestions on the method:

1. low rev break-in: TREAT GENTLY - For a few hundred miles (500-2000 MILES, varies from sources) that the rev should be ranging from 3000 - 3500 rpm or not more than 1/4 throttle, or 75 % of max power (or blah blah blah... you got the idea). Keep the speed low.

2. high rev break-in: ALL THE WAY OUT, NO WORRIES: this is the easiest, rev up and accelerate as much as possible (prefereably on racetracks, just be careful on streets) for 200 miles. This dude sounds like he has experience in cars.

3. keep rev swinging, max rev not important: NO CONSTANT SPEED - this method says rpm and speed is not important, the most important point is to keep the engine swings between high and low revs.

4. long winded method: THIS SOUNDS LIKE A FACTORY METHOD - a long procedural way of breaking in engine, involving switching off the engine to complete cool downs. ** read yourself
http://www.ntnoa.org/enginebreakin.htm

5. choose either high or low rev, depending your future demand: FORGIVING METHOD - a dude in a forum claimed that is method is suggested by Ferarri (but I could not find this method in ferarri related sites)

6. no need to break in: YIPPEE, NO SWEATS! - the logic is modern construction of piston rings and break in has been done in the factory
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_should_you_%...in%27_a_new_car

7. follow the car's manual book: VERY DIPLOMATIC METHOD - despite all the above mentioned methods, most authors still advise to follow car manual (who knows, maybe to avoid possible lawsuit for misleading the audience). But the author of method #2 above disagrees and has his own opinion on this

Note that the opinions really vary in terms of:
Duration - some people say 20 min (or alike) of breaking in, others say nothing about duration
Mileage - some say 200 miles, others 1000 miles, or even 5k miles or a lifetime!

My Qs:
1. Which is the correct method?
2. What did the manual say about engine breaking in?
3. MOST IMPORTANTLY, do the above method applied to hybrids, since in hybrids the electronics is controlling the engine output with interference from the motor, not the driver? What i mean is, you wanna the swing to high rev by pressing on the accelerator, but the engine rev up lazily with the help from the electric motor, so ultimately you can't rev up the engine fast enough.
             

Anyone changed rims? Planned to set new set of rims.. Will is affect the hybrid system? Plan to change to sportier ones, but still 15"

Was on the hill near Bangsar (Jalan Maarof). Half way up the hill stopped at traffic lights.  Car started to roll back. What did i do wrong?  My old automatic stuck like glue to the hill when take foot off break.  Should i keep foot gently on accelerator?

you mean u have the car in D, and stepping on the brakes anot?

if on hill, u can press the brake hard until the HSA lampu lights up, then u can take ur foot off the pedal and step on accell without the car roll back

to hairol_hsd,

Same here too. ^^  i thought I'm the one who got this problem. Lke ngek ngek sound right. And pressing break seem different from other cars.

Wow, timeonce, 450km for your KL-Melaka trip. You must have used a hugh detoured route?

Probably easier to just use hand brake to control.

to conqu3ror,
