Just got my car 2 weeks ago, Preve CFE ANCAP 2014, 2.5k discount.

First week
- Nappa leather seat (2.5k)
- 85% highway + 15% kampung => 8.7L/100km (RM 100 = first 550km)

Second week
- Reverse camera (RM 320)
- 100% city drive => 12.8L/100km (still driving) - mileage about 680 now.

Next will buy some small accessories, coil mat, trunk tray.. and probably get new HU after 2 years, was waiting to see if there's any aftermarket Apple Carplay during that time.

Guys~~i sent my car for the 5k service at Section 13 Service Center this wednesday~~

the Service Agent told me that there is a new version of ECU Mapping just released yesterday (Tuesday) and recommend me to wait an additional 30 minutes for the update...

well im not sure others have problems like this....previously there are some jerking when i drive at slow speed (highly acceptable in my opinion) and the clutch like not engage when stop and go on steep slope...(same goes to reverse up slope when parking)~~

but after the new ECU mapping, the car feels MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE and the jerking is even further reduced (used to jerk mildly for 3 times now...max 1 time)~~up hill acceleration improved significantly....engine break also felt stronger~~

Anyway..the downside is..i noticed the fuel consumption is slightly increased (i always look at the meter for FC changes) i reckon this is a small price to pay for a smoother drive~~

anyway mine is CFE ANCAP~~recommend u guys to update this new ECU Mapping....

Also recommend Sec 13 Service Center...got free white coffee and astro~~plus wifi (i did not use it as i never use up my plan's data)~~service staff is nice and polite....did not recommend me any other weird stuff (except X1R during the 1st service)

at least they recommend you the X1R, I went to puchong YES car care, they never mentioned it to me and direct use it during my first service, when i pay the bill and post up in fb only know the X1R is not necessary for new car.

Complaint for brake helicopter sound but they not entertain me, just said my car still low mileage, let it hit until 2k first. Seriously won't go back again, will go PJ section 13 for 2nd service.

Anyway, are you guys recommend semi or full synthetic engine oil? any specific need to tell the SC If i want use full syn?

Exactly.. wondering why people recommended "YES CAR CARE" except you don't need to make appointment in advance. Other than that, nothing to shout about.

By the way, If my first service using semi oil, the next service should be after 3 months or 6 months? service sticker written next service is 5k, but i don't think I will drive until 5k within 3 months, need to confirm on this...

Proton has confirmed that service interval is minimum 10,000km (Semi/Fully EO)
Note why I mention the word "minimum".
You can service as frequent as you want - if you are rich.

But for severe usage, it's recommended 5,000km.
Same goes for CVT Fluid/Filter - Severe 40,000km, Normal 60,000km

For us, we prefer to stick to Fully Synt EO if for 10,000km.

I'm not a severe user, normally only drink during weekend, the next service is either 10k or 6 months right? Since now I already use Semi (the YES car care didn't ask me whether semi or full as well, i know is my bad didn't told them in advanced I want full synt), do you think I will need to go for 2nd service after 3 months (10k = 6 months, 5k = 3 months)?

the 2nd service will ask to use Full.

going for my 5K service by this two week, planning to make appointment at PJ SS13, and want change to full sync oil, would like to ask is Synthium 3000 good enough for CFE?

and This time I will mention no X1-R, the Puchong YES just use it for my first service without notify me.

so standard 2nd service should be around RM 130++ right? think if use synthium 3000 will be more expensive, anyone has clue how much roughly will cost using 3000 + oil filter etc?
