first page.. oh yeah~~ Added on October 15, 2012, 3:17 pmQUOTE(dares @ Oct 15 2012, 03:13 PM) ANYWAY, was talking about my genting run earlier today driving my fofi. The short conclusion is : The FLX SE with CVT would bungkus the Fofi. Even with a 6-spd dual-clutch gearbox, the Fofi still can't beat the CVT's effectiveness at delivering torque. Although not as bad as a 4AT, it will still shift up and down the gears and the downshifts are pretty slow and clumsy. Even with superior NVH, it was still not very comfortable. On level road city drive, the Fofi is a better drive, but suffers from jerky gear hunting when climbing hills. The Gaga wins hands down in this aspect. This really make me think twice about selling the Gaga. laaaaaaaaaaa.. if neo cps we can chase.. apetah lagi fofi yang huduh tu. hahahaha This post has been edited by iXora.ix: Oct 15 2012, 03:17 PM

QUOTE(dares @ Oct 15 2012, 03:31 PM) The main weakness of the fofi (or any non-CVT AT cars) stems from accelerating uphill after slowing down (for example, after a U turn), the slow downshift is really frustrating and that's where the CVT really shines. However, if given an alternate circumstance that allows me to maintain speed during corner (mainly, if my gf is not screaming murder  ), it should perform significantly better. But it still maintains the CVT has a more comfortable uphill performance, but the Fofi has better handling. thats why when i fnf to genting i always didnt bring any gf or frens with me. its really nice when you drive alone. the time when you attack corner eventho ur car stock. our flx and cvt gearshift its really great!

QUOTE(masao343 @ Oct 15 2012, 04:17 PM) wow i just read someone posted this ins a thread about FLX fuel confumption: see below... true??? "If anyone still reading this thread. Those that is having high fuel consumption @240KM for RM45-50 RON95, just go to proton SC and tell them this. My son flx is also having this but after telling the SC, they did some tuning to the PS, and now its about RM0.15-RM0.18 highway/city driving. Before it was RM0.20-0.22 per km which is more than my german car. BUT you will lose the pickup speed in the city. I believe most of the FLX is delivered to customers with a 'sport mode' setting. Mine has a fast acceleration from standstill before but now its not, pickup from standstill a bit smooth but not quick. Anyway, tell them your normal route is highway or city, then they will do the adjustment."
i lagi upset laa.. usually pump Rm50.. 260km start blinking liao..

QUOTE(masao343 @ Oct 15 2012, 04:38 PM) same for me. around 250km for rm50 of Ron95 petrol. anyway, when u refill to FULL, can you get the fuel gauge to reach completely full-bar? i cannot! it is always 1 bar empty at the top! why? cause. RM50 is around 26 litre fuel only.. after you pump full tank. shake shake abit your car. than try fill again till you can see the petrol want come out. than you check.. for sure full bar
