something sound like cable ticking the metal skin? did you put any tin drinks in the cup holder? i put a tin in the cup holder and something like that appears.

what clip is loosen that cost you that price?

whoa, i have to check mine then....

i heard they will not extend it for you adi? some member (IIRC) say the new car have a piece of metal sticker on the steering rack that protect it from aircond water drips

bro, any idea on the treadwear of the Ecopia? M5 is 280, while XM2 is 420. I think since M5 able to take 60k, so ecopia could easily last longer than M5. Same to XM2.

thanks bro. perhaps by the time i need tyre replacement, you might be almost wanna replace your tyres, by then i will have a better idea on how "tahan" the Ecopia tyre is.

wow bro.... i'm more interested on how you pump your petrol, must be slowly pumping it in, coz shell fuel gun have a slowest setting which can easily take ages to fill up the fuel tank, but this do make sure the fuel tank fully filled.

you are "skillful"! can slam in another 5 liter after first click require lotsa patience! I tried once pump it to the max, was like 34 liter or something, still 7 liter shy from yours.

but yours is fuel to the max of the max, if your trip comp is right, it's at least 2 liter of fuel in the tank, plus your 41l, it makes 43l minimum, i can imagine there's no air bubble in the fuel tank. i gotta find one day to fill up alza to the max, just to try it out. i done on myvi once, 35l (out of 40l), the fuel display is blinking for some time, it's 1st gen myvi so i have no idea how much exactly it left in the tank.

interesting! it should be same ECU for myvi 1.5 and alza due to the same engine and the output, at least the protocol is the same, you mod the protocol of the OBD reader?

doesn't seems to be cheap....

seems like proride pads last longer a bit albeit the cost is slightly higher?

i agree to this. with good pad, it should come with good disk, vice versa. There's one time I was driving Saga BLM (manual), Ori brake rotor with Proton Ori pads (mintye brand), encounter brake fade when there is prolong braking down from Gohtong Jaya to Genting Sempah. have to drive slower and use engine braking to make the brake cool down to regain brake force.

is this the EDGE junior thingy that gives the OBD reading?

Yea i knew that, i thought the EDGE thingy is a OBD reader.
I'm more interested on the OBD reader for Alza, For me, usually VS wasn't help much unless the car have plenty of electric stuffs to run.

bring the sc mechanic together with you, reproduce the noise to them. if cannot fix, show them again

thanks for the update bro, perhaps should observe the FC as well if it's not too big a trouble for you.

you have a good FC reading bro.... the FC reading on my alza is hovering around 8.5L region, it went to 9.5L when i used it for daily town commute where there's jam (5km route that takes 20 - 30 minutes of commute), then drop back to 8.5L after highway drive.

ALza FL May 2014, clocked 32k km til today, i believe it's most likely due to factors like traffic jam and colder air cond setting. hence the fc soars to 9.5L, after a trip on highway back to ipoh, it back to nominal 8.5L as it used to be, and then climbing up recently due to daily commute of stop go traffic... overall i would say it's normal.
A tip for you bro, if you wanna achieve fuel saving, make sure you drive above 70kph while cruising coz the shift lock kicks in ONLY above 70kph with not heavy throttle. I heard Mazda skyactiv drive able to achieve shift lock as low as 30kph, which is quite impressive. Hopefully upcoming gearboxes able to have earlier shift lock (kinda dream on judging by how toyota / daihatsu / perodua tech offerings, they might just slams in CVT instead.... ).

bringing in the cosmetic gap, nice to the buyer, save cost for P2 to use common part over 3 models, now the RIM is the only external thing to differentiate a model S from SE/Advance.
