Was here.

Sunny Monday morning, Still MC at home, can't sit yet, lay on bed, enable Windows 7 magnifier on 24" LCD which is 10 feet from me. Nothing can do, so just open and read the attachment by mengsuan last week about Campro IAFM research.

The thesis not that 'hard' even i'm not a mechanical engineer, can understand the basic and what they do. After finished it, my conclusion is:
1. This IAFM solution is not a cincai work, it does have proper research and investigation before it introduced. Although plagued by structurer defect of IAFM which cause annoying tak tak noise when mass produced, most probably is due to tooling and material design.
2. In this thesis, IAFM is call NDIM (Naturally Dual Intake Manifold).
3. The thesis doesn't talking about short and long runner split by valve, it just stated the air will enter either short/long runner based on pressure which affected by engine speed. So this explain our discussion last week which the length of the manifold is actually adjusted continuous, in correct term, air is 'auto driven' through short/long runner based on pressure, neither the length of the manifold adjusted itself nor the air is redirect by valve switching. The change in torque is smooth and the IAFM operation is transparent to the user, so it shouldn't have any 'kick' effect. Anyway, i'm not sure whether this thesis is fully implemented or not, maybe later they add valve to split the runner, else why it will have IAFM tak tak noise?
4. Proud of Malaysia as this solution is investigated by local U.

That's all, haha...

Thanks bro...

Anyway, i also saw the DRL stripe in Mr DIY too. They also got cabin LED, T10 LED, tahan or not is questionable la, but since is dirt cheap, why not?

I think mostly is from China la, if compare quality, sure lost one. Example those tools like cutter, wrench, mostly the packing and iron is rusty abit, indication non consistent, but is very cheap, as long as is useful then can buy la.

I buy over RM150 from there adi, all are T wrench, cutter and others DIY tools that can open up the car parts plus one digital multimeter too...

I hide...

Known issue for FLX...so far din heard any complaint from BLM and FL users.
My bet there is some changes in the meter panel for FLX, maybe the chip itself or the oscillator is mismatch. Honestly even +- 1minutes/week is unacceptable in today electronics.

If u go SC alone, i dun think they will bother ur claim, unless u gather all FLX members here who suffer the same problem and file a complain, maybe useful.

such as?

noise/sound just find out urself and DIY la, else u go 100 SC to complain 101 SC also can't solve for one...more to come, such as dashboard la, center console la...be prepare for that. Maybe u try to turn off the radio when driving today, u will found alot more noises coming out from nowhere that u din encounter before.

The answer is simple...Why u buy Saga?

i wonder too, just bang, thud or dub only ma...

Dashboard and those plastic panel are relatively much easier to construct in super car compare to our Saga becos the engine noise should be able to cover all the ratting noise.

In other words, Proton is clever to put in a noisy Campro to mask the ratting sound, else if put Perodua engine AKA Toyota engine then it will become more noticeable.

Thanks for concern, today is better than yesterday lo...still have to rest on bed now. This thread does contribute to my heal process.

This will make more pain..

u dun curse ppl la, dares now want to renovate house 1st and get married soon one...

simpan salah angin...

if the owner dislike the car so much just give to me la...why so clue modified like that, fugly betul, oversize rim with large offset + too low + ah beng twin muffle.

Kindly post it @ facebook and search 9 it and destroye it after found.

I did test drive the Saga before i bought. That time i feel that i ride a conti car, the NVH is sooo good.

In fact, is becos my friend fetch me to the test drive dealer (10km distance) by motorbike.

what i want to stress is, NVH experience got some 'memory'. Last time when u drive Saga, maybe u won't think Viva NVH is the worst, but now fofi, thats why Viva worst NVH is much more apparent to u now.

Same case, my colleague recently who bought a Swift, he told me the car is noisy, which is not same as what he test drive that day. The culprit is he got 2 cars, 1 Kancil and 1 Livina. That day he drive Kancil to go for test drive, and then he go to collect car by Livina.

Actually no need to compare.

Just sit in and drive, if u think unbearable, then it means is the worst NVH car for u so far, if u think doesn't matter, then it is good NVH car for you.
