Set the expectation right and you'll be happy with the car. If expecting FC of a kancil then teruklah. Actually too many estimates about common cars like Myvi and Vios that is reporting over optimistically because the owner don't calculate but eyeball on gauge and feel only.

Myvi, my fren new myvi 1.3, my old first gen myvi 1.3, the FC for driving around my city is literally the same, 320km per full tank like tat. But problem is, preve is 350-380 per full tank lol.. I dont see myvi FC very good, until like godlike so good. But i dont know vios/city those FC, i dont think it will be better than myvi anyway.

if you refer to the service booklet, the recommendations for EO is semi-syn, and the interval schedule in the booklet is every 10000km. But as mengsuan indicated, there's no harm if you want to service your car every 5000km, but its not compulsory, from the warranty pov.

I remember there was a discussion in the previous thread, Proton tested the car with semi-syn EO up to 15000km iinm.  brows.gif

problem is, u go sc, they like act stupid say must service at 5k interval. they like open the 5k interval say u see here got 5k km, then open the 10k km one, say here 10k km. WTF..

smile.gif later people accuse proton pay under the table to the mag.

eventhough many times being explained the reason why it doesnt feel that fast due to cvt. but still people disbelieve n mentioned that even myvi is faster. n many accused cfe doesnt have 2L performance as advertise,n many times they said lancer outperformed preve. so,atleast,non bias testing has proved it. with cvt3+,its even better.

but,cfe just cap ayam enjin,there must be something wrong with the timing. broken stop watch perhaps?

tested ASX, felt so underpowered. Same feeling i got while driving almera, press pedal nothing happen. Press pedal the sound come out but the car dont run. Lancer maybe lighter but i think more or less the same la for 2.0. tried pedal to metal, asx still doesnt go forward as much as preve. try pedal preve to metal. u felt stick to the seat, without the gear jerk.

Unless you able to convince the dealer that the engine mounting is faulty, they will order the latest revision (suprima S version, or you can request for it if they allow, depend on your negotiation skill)

Syn3000 is fully syn, and although expensive, I can really feel significant improvement over before service. The drive is much smoother and the jerkiness at low speed is almost gone.

if normally how much they charge for labor? cos now no more free labor.. 20k service, now 19k+

i tried so many 2.0 car, or 1.6 NA, or 1.8 NA, all cannot beat preve in terms of power and handling. But if cabin refine, NVH, i say preve is 1 class below.
