In actual situation, Shawie can't fetch 20km/l. The most I went was 19km/l only. If I often in PJ, it goes down to 9km/l.

Can't compare with Axia anyways, coz that vinkas is only 3 cylinder

guys .referring this link. It says df4 engine cam is reprofiled.

For the 2010 model year, the size of the D4F’s air filter has been increased by 1.5l to 6l compared with the previous version of the engine; the motorised throttle valve has been revised, and the camshaft re-profiled for less valve lift. These measures have reduced the engine’s idling speed from 750rpm to 650rpm, which reduces fuel consumption by up to three per cent. in urban driving.

i wonder if our savvy have this profile or not

Can be done, provided the ECU is capable to utilize the hardware upgrade. 3% of saving... and the possibilities to do such upgrade can be up to few thousands(if ECU are not included in the said upgrade). I wonder how many years will it take to cover the cost of modification for that 3% of savings, considering our usable petrol volume per tank is about 35litres.

Technically, valve lift can be tighten to save fuel for urban driving. It gets better pickup, and utilize less fuel. On high speed cruising, due to tight valve lifting, u get a counter effect which burden the medium/high speed momentum. On the other hand, my own Shawie tepet is ultra noisy, which greatly benefit on high speed cruising. I can easily do 500km/tank of ROM95. Once challenged 600km for 1 tank But my urban driving FC sucks

eh eh how to clean out the air filter? *smells like sweat*

Can anyone enlighten me on the price of fuel pump for savvy? And where should I get it? Any suggestion? Thx.

RM300

Savvy-ers, I went to RenauTech yesterday to check my car. Just general check up of the engine and the results were timing belt and coolant changed. They also changed the reverse light bulb. Anyway, since then, everytime i open my door (when the machine is on) the emergency indicator also turned on. Before it wasn't like that. Is this normal? Or the technician accidentally "made" it like that?

Thank u in adv for the reply...

ermm...my savvy emergency signal behave like that since I got the car, not all Savvy should flash emergency signal when the door is opened? how much you change the timing belt?

Hi, just wanna ask the dimensions of Savvy oil sump nut.
What is the size of it?
Oil always leaking from original oil sump nut, planning to change into aftermarket ordinary oil sump nut.
Thanks ya

Idk, thats why i asked about the emergency signal.. Hehehe. Our first savvy baby..

Anyway, timing belt around 380RM plus labor charges 140rm

Wow! Your savvy can pump up to Rm70.
While mine can only pump up to Rm60 nia even the price of Ron95 has raised to rm2.30 per litre.
It last me about 480km for 100% urban driving when the fuel warning blinking.

If talk about fuel consumption, engine condition really is a big concerns.
Last time when my Iswalah carburetor healthy tip top condition, I can use 1 tank 34 litres ron95 pergi balik JB --Melaka 650km, and there is still Left 1/5 fuel in the fuel tank.
But now carburetor half dead, full tank 320km nia.

I also have that symptoms, when open door even engine is off, emergency light blinking for few seconds.
But it happens after I change alarm system of my Savvy.

I bought a second hen savvy, the previous owner gave me only one faulty alarm car key.
No choice, bo bian. If wanna alarm systems, have to go accessories shop pasang.

Before that, using car key open door manually, no such emergency light blinking problems.
Gone to proton sc check, says no faulty code.

Now already get used to it. Sometimes if I open door for few minutes, my car will blow whistle also. (alarm sound whee you whee).

TNH Auto (formerly known as RS Auto) will be moving to new place, by next month. Fellow Savvy drivers please take note and give a call to Mr Hoe to confirm

Moving again? careful this one. could be owe people money.

This one has bad service anyway, skip it.

Here you go bro
Original Savvy Fuel Pump

I'm planning to DIY re-gap the valve rocker arms because my valvetrain is too noisy. But looking forward, do you guys know where I can get the items for cheap:-

Valve Cover Gasket x1
Spark Plug Seal x4
[attachmentid=4163515][attachmentid=4163517]

Getting Original from Proton or Renault will set me back RM240 which is too much for a few pieces of rubber.

fb search - AllyAutopart Muhd Jamali MatDesa or Hairey CG. both of them supply car parts and cheaper then normal workshop price but please ask davidke20. he should have contact for cheaper price.
