There was a Proton mechanic told me to lenjat my car in the beginning therefore can replace the factory faulty parts as soon as possible within warranty period. Its a Proton, there are no "perfect" in their dictionary.

thanks for everyone opinion.
i am getting a kia cerato 1.6sx, i didn't post on the car club coz i want a neutral opinion. i assume it's gonna apply to all 1.6 car. I don't think this car is turbo though. so basically i drive in between 90 - 110 will be ok right? coz the sa told me that if i don't sometimes once a while press the pedal hard hard during the 1st 1000km, the engine lama lama become no so efficient. Hmm... |

If you plan to keep the car for longer duration, better be gentle, if you plan to sell the car within the warranty period, then it doesn't really matter.
Kia give 5 years warranty right? So plan ahead. |

Hmm... read the link i posted and understand why is that, don't just follow any advises from anyone blindly. understand how things work, and make your own decision. of course, pressing pedal hard doesn't mean you simply press it. start slow, light throttle (accelerator pedal) then once you've gone a distance with everything warmed up, pedal hard. |

Anyway, it is dangerous to speed on LDP at that kind of speeds. The late Chua Boon Huat died on the same stretch on LDP when his car hit the plant-watering tanker that was near the divider in the middle.but truth be told i was having cold sweat and goosebumps all over... suddenly having double the horsepower at my disposal... |

Just warm it up and go hard.
No item in the engine will heat up evenly. |

Albeit so many mixed opinions even some said factory also already run in during test bla bla bla SINCE NO ONE has hard facts to DISPROVE running in the car properly after factory... I dont think I have anything to lose if I abide by the TLC driving under 4k rpm for the first 1000km....but everything to gain IF IT WAS TRUE. 1000km very fast la.... few days to 2 weeks only...DOH |
