Hey guys!
Day 3 of ownership,
And I've been enjoying the ride so far.

It seems I'm either driving super slow and efficiently, or really fast and guzzling petrol. Never in between. Haha

3rd gear doesn't like to be shifted into sometimes. It has a bit of an attitude. I think I will seriously consider that redline gear oil.

I seem to get stalled engine sometimes when releasing the clutch onto 1st gear, when the car is stationary. I'm thinking I am not stepping on the gas pedal enough. Maybe I haven't gotten used to it yet.
Same for reverse gear. Feels strange that the revs almost don't go up at all when lightly pressing the gas.
Unlike my old saga, which had immediate mechanical response.

Also I notice that idling is at 0.5krpm sometimes. Is that low? Or normal.
When aircon is on, there is a loud "tchak!" Sound from the engine. And the revs change a bit. I'm guessing it is the compressor activating. And the ex-owner said its normal, since some valve is opening.
Is that "tchak!" sound normal?

All together it has been a good ride. And I plan to service the car soon, even tho it has not reached the 10k interval.
Cheers! And thanks for any answer!

Slacking Monday in office... 

i parked my car outside since yesterday, heavy rain yesterday and today

auto siram siram siram

any one have jdm flare in their car? any lobang to get new one? 

ini lin nice wor

u 5MT user ?? The gear shift is like that sometimes stuck, need push harder. I've been driving for a month plus now. Not only 3rd gear, but all of them will get stucked out of the blue.

U getting engine stalled is due to your manual skill not good enough lor :-P
There is 0.5second lag the moment you hit your throttle and the moment u see the rpm rise. So u must hit the gas first before you release clutch. That's y the car stalled coz u used to the no delay throttle response from old car with throttle cable. All newer cars these days use drive by wire.

Idling around 600rpm is normal for this car. The tchak sound is from the aircon compressor thermostat.

lets hope the weather dun get too hot and spark up it

My fuel consumption is 12L/100km. Seems a bit high.
I see on fuelly, others getting 9L/100km.
Maybe the CVT variant?

Oh yeah.. My tires are abit bigger. =)

U whack your car is it?? First 1000km is quite thirsty. After you service first time should be ok.
I'm getting 12.6km/L average for a full tank City Driving.

Today the instrument meter shows 14.6km/L driving at 7am from Sungai Buloh to Sunway via LDP . No car at all. Drive at 90km/h constantly.

And i do notice tht the throttle delay can reduce with drop-in KNN air filter

Where can buy knn spray oil ya? Or did you guys sent out for cleaning?

i like the car color...
