QUOTE(terryble @ Mar 28 2014, 03:30 PM) Guys~~i sent my car for the 5k service at Section 13 Service Center this wednesday~~ hi bro, if new car also nd to go for ECU re-map?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 data)~~service staff is nice and polite....did not recommend me any other weird stuff (except X1R during the 1st service) |

I am anticipating a better mileage as the car is still new... 2500km mileage only now |

QUOTE(kmhork87 @ Apr 7 2014, 10:51 PM) Need help guys bro, u should go back to sc for further checking ... is unsafe to drive around with a spoofing sound as something may crack....My preve 2012 October Last week, before my service, felt the car sluggish and turbo is spoofing louder than before and sudden lack of power and torque So I thought it was due to time for service After service, the loud turbo spoofing and lack of power and torque still persists Anyone experience before and what's the solution? Thanks a lot in advance!! |

QUOTE(vikneswaranc_17 @ Apr 9 2014, 10:24 AM) to be very sincere with you,i rarely take out my car when rush hour. the mentioned figure was about 80% highway and 20% city with moderate traffic and occasional start stop traffic.. i even done half tank from jalan duta shell to gurun caltex but had to fuel up because going in to thailand. that is why my fuelly figures are very low. Im just almost oppositte your position. 80% city and 20% highway as mostly using it for working although distance to my office is just a mere 15 min drive without jam but if jam will take out 30-45 min if i was lucky. even highway i was in jam too even tried to travel back kampung at night also face jam pack or slow driving around 60km/h - 80 km/h... |
