Hi Bro,

Hecta PL is not a PH neutral shampoo. Permanon Hecta is a highly concentrated, alkali-titrated concentrate intended for
cleaning and removal organic impurities. Please see product spec here.
http://www.permanonusa.com/Literature/Data...ata%20Sheet.pdf

It is not recommended for routine wash. For washing, you can use Brilliantshine shampoo (http://www.beacon-enterprise.com/en/brilliantshine-2-in-1-cleaning-shampoo-unique-features/) or other brands with PH neutral.

Cheers.  smile.gif

Thanks for the advice...previously bought from jojo..maybe I misunderstood him, becoz I was asking whether he sell any car shampoo together with the Permanon, and he said the Hecta PL is the shampoo..so I use it to wash my car.. Anwyay, I have change to Meguiar Gold Wash now, and once a month will use the Hecta PL and mix with the Diamond solution to wash my car..

Its the gearbox actually, not engine.

The characteristic of this cvt, to ensure smoothness pickup with D mode is to press gently to let the car roll abit, only by then apply more force to accelerate. Its unlike normal torque converter gearbox

Hello everyone,

After driving my IAFM+ CVT for 800km,

I notice some rattling sound coming from around steering area when i push the car between 1.5-2.5k, Is kinda annoyed.

Have anyone encounter this problem?

Also, my steering vibrate when i hit the brake like krup krup krup sound. I suspect the disc brake.

By the way, normally you guys use what oil for 1k sevice?

Leave around 5cm space between metal clamp n the first cable tie. Else it will not be properly tighten to the intercooler, gas leaking.

Thanks Allen.

After much thought whether to redo it or not, have decided to abandon this mod.

Checked with a caliper with the zip ties on and after I took it off, it is about the same +-2mm.

My fingers and nails still hurting like I climbed a tree like a cat.

Thought last time to post in Prevoc and put a link here. Did it twice thinking it would be easier for newbies to find.

See the bulletins that Allen. Very informative.

Big job to consolidate the info from 3 places into 1. Doubt it will happen.

TQVM Sifu for the kind reminder to read through the owner's manual. Actually I had read through the manual book but could not find the explanation that necessary to solve the problem. Anyway I will read through the book again. For examples pictures page 68 and 69 do not explain the situation as the gear lever is in 'P' Park position.

Or maybe Sifu can help me to locate the correct page/s for the discussed scenario. Please help and thank you very much.

YF, yes the one with the P position. It is only to tell you, push the button to switch off the engine. Perhaps yours and mine are the newer batch with updated ECU and SID. I cannot get the push button sign when engine on and in P. Then again, I haven't idled in P for a long time anyhow. I'm sure all of us know that we need to push the button to switch off the engine anyhow and it ain't a warning sign although the manual does use this word. You want to turn off the engine, turn the key or in the instance of the CFE, push the button.

I encountered this sign in the display when I do get to start immediately as in fob-brake-push start but fuel pump still activating hence the whirring sound from the fuel tank. Then need to push the SSB again. My default screen is always Km to empty. Jalan jalan then the push start button sign come out. After 2 times push the button on the wiper stalk ok already. But I don't seem to get it already nowadays.

Unless any other owner feedbacks, I think it is safe to ignore and select back the display you want on the screen.

As with any other car pls pull over and stop if you were to get those real warning signs like CEL, High Temp, Low Oil.

try to use mode that easy to revert back to original for easier claim for warranty in the future.

Of course, its normal to any man want to modified their cars, even ferrari owners also like to modified their prancing horse. :-).

I only can tell u one thing, when choosing to equip cfe cvt preve whether with 6 @ 7 speed software based ratio, it seems for them(the engineers involve), 7 suit preve pretty well compare to 6 since its lighter than exora. But if they decide for upcoming variant with manual 6 speed, it will be the best :-). N r3 preve iafm+ easily outpaced cfe on track, he...he...

Mat, R3 iafm doing very well locally with 1-2 finish. Can play and win B16B so should be putting out at least 180whp. CFE about 120whp on flat road how to play? Going up mountain road definitely got chance as probably about 12-13kg compared to CFE 18kg on wheel. 4G93 can match if not tapau stock B16B going up but not down.

Last Sunday morning, I play with my buddy in his 6 speed Altezza. Too many gears and torque at higher rpm susah for him. Genting Sempah Goh Tong Jaya got fight. Down Batang Kali all the way to Ulu Yam dam kena tiong tiong tiong kau kau at every stretch.

last weekend mine started to show check engine & check oil. but once engine start, the lights gone. should i be worried?

I did check the oil dripstick, the level was under the 2 slopes. I guess the lowest slope represent lowest point?

I also get the same sign before engine start in Preve, in my Kelisa, wira,...nothing to be worried....

If 2 slopes, think you can add some oil already....

Better redo it bro, unless u going for stainless steel pipe mod.
Cable ties are to hold the shape from expansion, just dun over tighten it will do. wink.gif

The increase in performance is really noticeable. Just worry that there was leakage between hose and the clamp, so u get even worse performance.

Thank you very much for the valuable information. Anyway I will make an appointment with the SC to solve the problems. Hopefully the SC will entertain and solve the problems. I don't whether it helps if I call Proton I Care 03-8026999!

:-), for track, yes with 6 speed manual, but on the road, too many carbon that will hurt the environment :-),it will be banned. But who knows in the future for s2000, but need atleast 5 years homogolation rules, by then, i think, there will a newer engine. R3 is more focusing on na racing development than turbo charged one. Until now, r3 s2000 supercharge replica been put on halt. I dunno whether drb will release it or just scap it. Pity the r3 team.
