QUOTE(Fantasia @ Jun 23 2014, 10:07 PM) guys, just a question. i plan to go cameron highland this week with 1st gen persona, auto 1.6. just wondering anyone done it before? i scare not enough power to drive up as my friend's 1.5 myvi is struggling when climbing up genting highland I did it a few weeks back out of boredom. The only time when you're really going to have to rev the car hard (i.e over 4000RPM) is when you're close to the top, otherwise the car should have adequate power to get up.Edit: That's also assuming that you keep your car in a good condition mechanical wise, e.g no extended engine oil usage, performed throttle body cleaning, and et cetera. Edit2: Sorry, I thought you were talking about Genting Highlands with a Persona. For Cameron Highland, my last memory of the journey up there is that it's not that bad. The route's gradient is about the same as Genting, or not as bad as far as I remember. P/S: I used to go up there yearly or so as my relatives live there, but in a Nissan Serena C24, with about 5 people on average and luggage.

QUOTE(Suthesh1301 @ Jun 24 2014, 07:01 PM) Thank you cavino for the info. By the way, about the FC, i'm using Putra with Gsr engine, and it consumes less petrol than my persona do. Thats why I'm wondering. I press on the gas pedal, and there is no pick up at all. So, have to press a little more to selit in when jam time, it consumes more petrol. I was thinking of changing the engine one shot.. I'm a traveler too, so its not comfortable to travel long journey in Myvi or Viva. I guess Persona is just fine. Any more suggestions?? Get the car supercharged / turbocharged? |

QUOTE(dares @ Jul 2 2014, 04:03 PM) If want peace of mind and easy to maintain, kenot lari from P1 P2 T&H geh la. High-class can solve problems yo If you wanna be pragmatic about buying a car notwithstanding all those hoohah with protectionism, Proton is still bang for buck. Rattling is cheaper to fix than DSG kong, and you get full safety kit. Even now new Vios owners are complaining about the poor built quality. |

QUOTE(kinkeet @ Jul 3 2014, 11:30 AM) hey guys, when need to change power steering oil? it's not stated in the service timetable. just back from sc, the mechanic told me that the power steering oil had started to become dark color, ori is in red Supposedly every 20,000KM or so. I would suggest getting a good Dexron III ATF like the Petro Canada D3M ATF. You'll need about 1L or so to fill up the entire power steering tank, and over 2Ls to flush.This post has been edited by TDUEnthusiast: Jul 3 2014, 11:38 AM |

QUOTE(Cavino @ Jul 3 2014, 11:45 AM) My power steering already gives whirling noise way before 40K. After change power steering fluid, recovered, no noise. Go get the Petro Canada D3M. Up to 100,000KM life, and it's only RM30 or less per bottle, slightly cheaper than a bottle of genuine Proton SP3.At 60k service, the fluid become dark again, so change again (very slight occasional whirling noise start appearing beforehand, so agree with the observation).

QUOTE(kinkeet @ Jul 3 2014, 12:17 PM) my car ady 4 years old, and extremely low mileage, only 25k.. haha ya it's not that red, more to dark color, he told me it will started to produce carbon thing like that.. everytime i go for service sure will ask me change this change that.. this time didn't bring enough $, only 200+ in the wallet so i told him lain kalilah You could do the change yourself. You just need a pump, e.g a kerosene pump, and ATF fluid, and perhaps a car jack if you plan to do air bleeding for the power steering system. |
