ah ok i see what you're looking for. Honestly, it would require a person who own the old model, and now owns the new model to really make that comparison.

But from my perspective, i find the cabin noise is not loud, and have not encountered the issues listed so far.( rattling, wind noise, vibrating steering). granted, vehicle still new tongue.gif

two 'complaints' i have only is the horn sounds really 'pondan' and there is no alarm lock sound. Horn the only solution is to replace it but it voids warranty.

The no alarm lock sound they can install the buzzer for rm50+.
*
I replaced the horn about a year into my warranty, but Perodua make no noise about it... Granted that was 2 years ago, maybe there are changes into that effect... sweat.gif

Here's mine for the entire duration I owned my Alza...

Attached Image

Avg RM 0.16/km... mixed of town and highway drive...

If it's purely highway drive, I can reach RM 0.14/km...


This is considering I'm a heavy footer myself...

Your mileage may improve overtime... Let the engine run in first...

Thanks for the reassurance on the FC. I hope so I can get to your level after some time.

Do you have any specific petrol brand that you use eg. Caltex or it's rojak i.e. no specific brand?

Lastly,  please share what app you are using to track your FC.

Thanks :-)
*
Mixed brand, but mostly Petron since there are 2 Petron stations near my place...

App's called RoadTrip, it's a paid app on iOS...

Based on your experience with the app, would you recommend I pay for it if there's an Android version?
*
You can try Road Trip Lite for free...

Downside of Lite version is that it only can input data for ONE vehicle, and not import and export of data...

I have no idea whether they have an app for Android, perhaps you can contact the developer for further details...

no autolock but auto-unlock if i recall. ( when you stop your car, power off the door is unlocked).
also ther is a beep beep if you are over 20km/h and did not have driver seatbelt on.

This one on new facelifted Alza or the one before...? I don't recall mine has that... There are only beeps when my car is moving without disengaging the foot brakes... ph34r.gif

ur city drive 65 % ma.. how much start stop? how long ur jammed and stationary b4 moving again... tat consume petrol u know.. plus how many pax u have on board... is ur tyre nicely inflated? lots of thing can play a role...
one more thing is b4 10k service.. car fuel consumption memang a bit bad punya wink.gif

Calculated on average, 80% city, 20% highway...

00010 - 10000km = 12.64km/L = 7.91L/100km
10000 - 20000km = 12.34km/L = 8.10L/100km
20000 - 30000km = 12.18km/L = 8.21L/100km
30000 - 40000km = 12.18km/L = 8.21L/100km
40000 - 49986km = 12.23km/L = 8.18L/100km

So mine got worst over time... rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

Can't even recall when my engine felt break-in... perhaps there was none...


Welcome to your worst nightmare...

i think those are pretty average ah.. tat mean ur average full tank at least clock u 400km for city, it is pretty decent no?
cant expect a mpv wannabe to be so thrifty when in city right? more weight ma right? it will be cheaper if u think of carpool , i mean think 4 person in a car instead of jus u alone traveling most of the time...

360 - 380km at most on city drive... Above 400km only on highways most of the time...

boss hows ur jazz now? much better than alza? tongue.gif

Drives much better... less steering vibration, less overall vibration, less engine noise... cruising on highway is like gliding on ice... Still early to tell if there's gonna be rattling issues as some reported... well, CKD quality I supposed... sweat.gif

Stock NVH is better than Alza, though I might need to address some external traffic noise... Fuel efficiency better than Alza no doubt...

Only downside is the interior space is not as big as Alza, but that's something I'm willing to trade off...

finaly I got my car~~~~so happy~~~

By the way, I face a problem, not sure it is normal for Alza

When go down the hill, I did not accelerate, I let it move itself speed about 60-70, but I can feel it pull the gear n sound very loud, why like that since I never accelerate?

It's called gear braking… It comes in handy when you descent from Genting...

sound proof, quite satisfy, people can fall sleep easily during my time go into Singapore. And ofcoz, stock tayer is very bad and lousy result big sound when driving, after you change it (I will change to micilin), sure improve a lot. Cheers

Don't be fooled by it... Sometimes they get asleep becoz their ears are tired with all the road noise especially the ones made by the crappy tyres... I get that many times whenever my colls travel outstation with me in my car, they just sleep, and the ride's uncomfortable... Damn kao paiseh driving it... There was once I doze off on the wheels for a few seconds - the tyre noise is just unbearable... rclxub.gif

Today went to SC for 5k service. Did complain there is little bit of noise from the engine, also did feel vibrate went idling. After checking the SC told me MAYBE the power stearing pump got promblem. Have to refer to HQ to see if have to repair back or change a new one.
Now wanting to see how long l have to wait for SC to respond for my complain.

depends on individual preference.  Also please note that some station with same brand has different 'power' as i experienced before.

EG.  Shell in Tmn Desa - OUT. (3 bikes plus 2 cars confirmed.), Shell in PJS 1 near tmn sri manja - OUT.  Caltex - Kesas USJ bound - OUT.
*
To me, all Shell RON95 are out... But I'm surprised you voted Caltex out... sweat.gif

best bucks for ur money spent lor.. pump full tank.. c which give u the most value... not jus in term of ur mileage but power, rebet, points etc
*
good point...

Power Delivery = BHP, Caltex (Alza)
Points = Petron Smiles, credit cards may vary...
Rebate = Maybank AMEX card for weekend pump 5%, other platinum cards may offer higher percentage all week.
Mileage = Petronas (Jazz), have yet to try BHP and Caltex on current car...
Tank = 1st half offers better mileage than second half. This is tested on my Jazz, you guys may wanna try Alza, but since Alza has heavier ass, your mileage may vary.

anyone notice stock alza if go beyond 60km/h during heavy rain, it is most probably going to skid.

what's the issue there ???

1. due to stock tyre 185/55/15 silverstone M5 lousy?

2. due to car weight very light ?

3. due to aerodynamic issue compared to sedan?

4. floor clearance height higher than sedan?

please advise, really worry about alza owner since recently afternoon heavy rain.

my previous car going at 120km/h during heavy rain, no problems at all, no skid nothing.

water pond sure die la sweat.gif
*
1. It has been discussed throughout the entire thread and in fact the previous thread... M5 sucks, and a danger all Alza owners and other road users... Don't save up for the sake of saving money, spend it to change to better donuts...

2. Alza has a heavy ass...

3. No comment...

4. Probably...

And may I add the following...

5. The absence of VSA/VSC/ESP/ESC is one of the reasons I ditched my Alza...

6. Who in the right mind would speed 120kph during heavy rain even with stability control...?


Good luck...
