Typical question (I predict will pop p) and I'm curious as well:

Will there be a manual version? 5 or 6 speed? laugh.gif

my friend working in proton said there'll be 6speed manual thumbup.gif but MAYBE not for malaysian market.
they focus on europe..

1st,im sorry if this is too complicated,try to help,not forcing anyone to follow. to get juice up a bit fc by understanding punch cvt.

1) rolling start- always let the car roll a bit first by themselves after stagnant bfore press the throttle pedal.

2)rev up to 1.6k rpm max only if u r - at the parking lot, really slow stop n go traffic n at situation speed less than 40kmh.

3)rev between 1.7k to 1.9k rpm max only if u r - driving in town where speed between 50 to 80kmh is only needed,and cruising below 90 kmh.

4) when overtake,no need pedal to metal,just exploit the flat torque curve between 2-4k rpm only. sometimes 2k rpm is just enough.

k,just sharing. i am sorry in advance.

thanks bro!
will start practicing! thumbup.gif

Hi mat, thanks for the info. What about during reversing? Sometimes I feel like the engine is about to stall when I reverse park. In fact it stalled on me once, the rpm was <1k. So now during reverse I make sure to rev it a little so that the rpm is around 1k. Is this normal?
Haha..no la. I don't need that kind of acceleration.  This car is powerful enough for me as it is.
*
when reversing it feels heavy (when reversing from a slop). need to ram harder.
any advice on this matter?btw my car didnt stall.. hmm.gif

well..i've been driving manual before too.. jumping to auto is nothing serious to me since my wife's car is auto.
nyway, just to share..i really love the VT3.. feels so much smoother compared to the conventional 4speed auto. ive never tried dropping the gear coz the car is new, still sayang to drop like wat i used to with my previous manual ride.hahaha.. maybe u can try dropping the gear using the test drive car?

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

if u ask me, id prefer the 5k interval engine oil change regardless what engine oil im using. though people say fully synthetic can last up to 10k km.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

since its a C-segmen car, the rear seat space is comparable to other C-segmen.
im coming from a B-segmen car, the rear seat is pretty spacious! thumbup.gif

y bro? 1st service have to use semi synthetic eh?
advice a bit bro.. icon_question.gif hmm.gif

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


not to scare u, but my SA said his showroom unit last time was also in Spanish language. they did ask proton to come change to english but the proton fellar changed the whole HU.

Kinda love the GPS actually.. just that its abit "talkative" doh.gif

If the condition permits, then the TCU (Transmission Control Unit) will permit you to drop a gear (or two). If the condition doesn't permit to do so, the TCU will never allow you to drop the gear to protect the transmission.

The VT3 has lots of safety mechanism built into it, so no worries.

As for reliability, the VT3 unit is essentially a unit based on VT1, developed by ZF to be used in Mini and MG cars in the early 2000s. Nothing major has been reported by the owners in the net, so it is safe to assume that the reliability is good without counting small cases of manufacturing defect. There's also a few Preve who bring their CVT into the track and no unwanted problems arise after the event.

android HU is a bit disappointing to me.. though im loving the gps.
seems like the player doesnt have any memory to recall what file it was playing last before shutting the engine.
every time start the engine, on the radio, then need to search for the music i was listening. either from my pendrive or cd/dvd. doh.gif lucky it remembers the radio #..
as stated earlier, for dvd, atleast pls enable the audio. sometimes i listen to my dvd concerts while driving. why is it possible on other aftermarket HU such as the sony xav-701hd?
and y can't i change that background to my own picture? hmm.gif
i realised last weekend sometimes my next/prev button on the steering doesnt respond. i need to restart the HU to get it functioning again. it only happens when i receive/make a call via BT. anyone experience the same?

My SS stats:

Delivery date: 21/9/2013

Mileage on delivery: 50 km

Max mileage on fulltank: 625 km (refuel at 1 bar left during delivery)

Mileage clocked until 22/9/2013: 476 km

Destination (21/9-22/9/2013): Bangi-Ulu yam (return), bangi-kuala selangor (return),

Speed: 80-100 km/h

Average fuel: 9.2 L/100km (19/9 L/100km at delivery)
but i'm wondering why the fuel showing 19/9 L/100km during delivery... hmm.gif  hmm.gif
*
wah..my average now become 10.5l/100km..
i guess its due to speeding at highway 140-160kmh cruising
(kl-mlk-ronda mlk-kl) rm80 managed 497km only.

Hmm.. mine is about 130km at 1 bar.  hmm.gif Probably because of my high average. Anyways, here's my fuelly profile. So far averaging 9.9L/100km.

Fuelly

If you guys can make one and share with us that would be great. I think it'll be easier to gauge and compare since we'll be using the same method of measurement.
*
exactly...my 1 bar estimates around 130-150km left.
since i cruised 140-160kmh last weekend, my average now is 10.5l/100km.

sorry,forgot to mentioned that,if cruising, better rev gradually to achieve speed desired,rather slam it like auto car,coz in cvt,no need to rev exsessively. but then,its up to you n ur right foot then. only overtake action u need to prod the throotle,but not full,half is enough since being turbocharged,flat torque is always available.

but after 10k km service,it would be better.

I can cruising up to 100 km/h with 2-2.5 rpm.. thumbup.gif

But It's only available on the Premium, not the Executive. Both uses VT3  hmm.gif

just my wild guess, is it the lock in the gear lever?
i notice when we put in key and press the start button twice(without depressing the brake pedal), there's a sound coming from somewhere below the gear lever. im guessing its the lock?
maybe exec doesn't have this gear lock.

19l/km... that is a bit high. Must be 1 l to 19 km.

Here is something proton engineers can consider, MirrorLink:

Well yeah, 19l/km sounds too high.
Ive been using mirrorlink on my previous car. Now the HU transfered to my wife's car. Its a good thing if proton can add it to our current HU. But I guess its a hardware related thing.so maybe not..

is it ok if the mileage for the 1st service around 1000 km -1500 km? hmm.gif  hmm.gif

i just called section13 pj SC.. she say if exceed for instance 200km, they'll contra on the next service 10,200km.

then i ask what engine oil u're using for 1st service that can last for 10k km? she said semi synthetic.
i was.. "u biar betul semi-synth boleh 10k km?" rclxub.gif
she siad sure can.. hmm.gif

so is it true guys? what engine oil u guys use for ur 1k km service? semi or full? i still doubt semi can use till 10k km.
she quoted rm197 (or maybe rm198 cant remember) for the engine oil(semi synth) oil filter, gasket & magentrap.
