I spent so many years in KL liao....last time I went back Ipoh makan, I hear the tauke say 50sen "五chian"....I stunned for a while  shakehead.gif
*
My unker² still using traditional word, call it 五錢. Sound like ng5 cin4. According to older generation, when they were "shipped" here during the cultural revelation, they have no idea how to value Malayan currency. Hence, they straight named the 50cents coin as a WEIGHT instead of actual currency phase value. For example:

在武曌亲自监工之下,就在耀州工坊铸造的五钱重的银币

However though, back than Canto fellas are the more lansi fellas, most profession now known as RUNNER, those eat brain fellas that work less, no proper job, but get to earn a decent living due to PANAI(pandai in Malay) CHAT HAI and got skill to deal with the Brits. Most Canto fellas are happily earning their own race money in Ipoh and never leave the town. The Hakkah fellas are usually the tauke of milling work, business owner, Cainis tabib that open medicine shop, tin miner that makes good moolah, but when go to town had to search for a Canto fella, give the canto fella 50cents to help bank in lar, pay bills lar, do all the admin work. So the Hakkah fella will usually say something like:

五 錢 比 開 你 還 唔 幫 我 同 而 只 死 紅 毛 鬼 喊 佢 去 食 屎
Hmm Chian Bin Hoi Ngee Han Hmm Bong Ngai Tong Eh Zhak Si Fung Mao Gui Gong Ham Gee Hee Sit See
Translate: 50cents ady given to you, still not helping me to ask the redhead(calling the Brits back then) go eat crap

From there, the Canto fellas in Ipoh started to adapt their Hakkah boss calling it as CHIAN instead of CIN. Originally, the Hainanese fellas also very pure, but there's just too many Hakkah & Canto fellas going to their shop to drink kopi and eat, so the Hainan fellas also call it CIAN ady doh.gif

Another interesting fact if you keen to know. Have you ever wonder why they call it 五錢, but when ask how much that time will use 幾多looi? Because the LOOI came from our local Malay call it DUIT, and where DUIT came from? DUTCH laugh.gif Supposed to be BERAPA WANG! Not BERAPA DUIT! DUIT is a foreign language. The Belanda bring in their own DUIT(refer WIKI please). And surprisingly, when I check with my Hongkee fren, our Canto dictionary indeed got 鐳 leoi4 recorded as(money/currency). Then only realize, yes HongKong was once filled with Orang Belanda as well, so as Indonesia.

As for 5 bucks, in Ipoh still widely calling 5蚊. Whereas most of other places calling 5 kaw, thanks to the Hokkien influence. 五塊GOH KOH. Then the other fellas try to use it but broken jor, ended up HMM KAW ady doh.gif

Interesting eh laugh.gif

I'm a new Proton owner and new here so please be gentle, I just had to make a first post sometime.
I don't have a SV but mine's a FLX CVT but I'm curious about the EBD? I think it's the traction control thing that has many names around the world, my FLX has a button on the console and lights on the instruments but I've yet to have any success getting the button to light a lamp, I can't help but feel it doesn't actually exist on mine, but it's not something that's important to me.

What I have noticed about the car already is it sits very nicely on the road, I love the way it steers, probably the Lotus influence, I hope others like it too. Also I can't help but think the CVT *is* the transmission of the future and offers naturally the smooth gear changes other transmissions are constantly trying to improve. The SAT button on mine was used once then retired as what's the point of using a retro setting that I wanted to get away from?
*
EBD got no access externally. It's originally equipped together with the ABS system. Safe to said, if you don't have an ABS, you don't have an EBD. That vinkas helps to distribute the brake force equally by assessing the driving environment. For example if the driver side of the road is lower than the passenger side, the brake distribution will automatically put more force on the passenger side to prevent during braking the car skid to the driver side.

All Plotong GaGas FLX Exec/SE came with ABS/EBD.

If your stock wheels is this 1, then you have ABS/EBD

If this 1, you don't have ABS/EBD because yours is Standard/SV spec

Hope this help nod.gif And yes, the steering, the entire dashboard design, the suspensions are mostly injected with LOTUS DNA, not to mentioned the engine block was 1 of the LOTUS race car's power plant. Ayam glad you enjoy the car as much as most of us do. May I have 1 question? nod.gif

After much puzzlement I think your question is about a Toyota Vios, which has the Yaris variant available here in Australia, sorry I didn't mention that but Proton is not an enormous seller here. Anyway I bought the FLX because of features and price but the kicker was opening the bonnet and seeing a lovely open engine bay, since I always do my own servicing that was nice.

Mine has ABS, or at least has the plumbing unit for it, hopefully I'll never need to trigger it. It also has leather interior, CVT and the 1.6 engine. For $2000 more I could buy a base model Yaris with a manual transmission.

What?! U r in Oz?! Sorry for the foul language tongue.gif

And yes, u have our dream SAGA! The Oz spec is the highest range, which not available in Malaysia.

Good choice in getting the FLX+. It was widely compared a VIOS(Yaris) in Malaysia with the GaGa despite the price is huge difference. Forget about the spec, people in this land are more brand concious then FACT. Hence it became a standard practice to ask newbies on their decision in getting a GaGa instead of a Vios(Yaris) laugh.gif

Welcome and enjoy the stay. I will pay attention & try to use proper Engrish English

No worries David, I think brand snobbery or whatever you want to call it is quite universal.

I'm finding a few things irksome already, I'm a geek who loves to replace steam age incandescent lamps with LED but sense Proton are placing hurdles in my path, as to why is a mystery but today my LED 3rd brake light lamp arrived and I'm saddened that Proton wired the centre pin of the 1156 socket as negative, they must have known what I wanted to do. Also the flasher can has the earth and battery terminals transposed to the common variant, another quirk to overcome, later when I get the new lamps (which naturally it seems use the scarcer BAU15S socket) I'll probably find the wiring is again reversed to normal.

I love going around corners in my new plaything. Previous car was a Hyundai Matrix (naturally to be different known as a Lavita here) it was a lovely car which with the 1.8 engine was actually quite frugal, at least on the highway, but handled like a barge in comparison. I haven't used "Daisy" enough for fuel economy testing yet but thus far it's fairly bad, however it's early and much change can and I expect to happen.

Hi there,

1) The 3rd brake lamp indeed 1156 socket was reversed across all GaGa every since 2008, from your local S16 until now FLX+. You can simply unfold the LED module and reverse the input, and or rewire the socket. HOWEVER! Here comes the problem, 1 of the function in the engine management is to detect voltage abnormal on light bulb's output doh.gif Once you change the socket layout, plot the LED module, it works like a charm and you praise that yourself as a genius, then the CHECK ENGINE indicator(CEL) lite up on your dash because the ECU sense voltage utilization on the 3rd brake light utilize much less current doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif In order to counter this, our friend lhwj & coolkwc had wired up a resistor to the 3rd brake lamp module and managed to cheat the ECU on a regular voltage usage on the 3rd brake lamp.

2) Yes the turn signal lamps are wired reversed. Simply change it back and you'll be able to use LED. The signal blink relay can be exchanged to a common LED use. But the blinking speed will be slower.

Fuel consumption wise, the Campro S4PH is a known fuel monster. However, the CVT is there to help up. Know the wet clutch engagement timing is important as the clutch engagement trigger is the brake pedal. Usually from a standstill, after release your foot from the brake pedal, it take some 1/2 ~ 1seconds until the clutch fully engaged on the flywheel. During/before the engagement time, stepping on the gas pedal is what a Chinese old saying goes "waste gas". If unfamiliar, after release brake pedal, wait for the car to start creeping forward, then gradually increase gas pedal.

By nature, the tall Campro engine is made for high PRM torque. Hence, within 1000~4000rpm is the weakest point of the torque output. Plotong utilize an Air Fuel Module(multiple intake runner) to lengthen the intake runner on lower rpm. Keeping your RPM within 2500rpm range will reduced a lot of unwanted fuel wastage(naturally the IAFM will try to pickup more air/fuel to the engine to counter the low torque within 1000~4000rpm).

Log your fuel ups in http://www.fuelly.com/ to track your petrol consumption. You'll be able to compare your fuel consumption against others, to see whether is there any problem with the car or your right foot laugh.gif

I have a saga blm for 5 yrs, but recently this few month the alarm of the car gone crazy, every time it set on and sound by itself automatically. At first it sound not so frequently, but after one month whenever I lock my car with alarm it will frequently set on by itself. (it set on by itself many many time in a day). Anyone know what happen or any solution to solve it?    rclxub.gif

When the alarm triggered, dun go press anything on the remokontol 1st. Walk to your car, observe whether signal light got blink anot xin.

YES
Look through driver door window, see whether the DOOR NOT CLOSE indicator lite up.

Then open the rear boot, spray plastic friendly lubricant into the lock module, use screwdriver to fiddle with the lock, push the striker in, then go to driver side pull to release. Go to the back push the striker again, and pull to release. Repeat several times. Shut the boot and try. If not, continue check on all 4 door's striker plate, see whether the black color outter coating is still there.

Car got older, things get wear & tear. Replacement of striker plate is cheap compare to the alarm module.

NO
Alarm module faulty

QUOTE(wankel @ Sep 24 2014, 10:56 AM)
Within five minutes of getting my FLX home I'd had the displeasure of discovering it had an alarm, quickly followed by unplugging the noise box under the bonnet. Since then it still decides to quietly lock up and flash lights at whatever whim takes its fancy, I even find that hard to endure but at least happily the car salesman explained one thing to me, how to turn it off. I'm tempted to pull fuses marked alarm but sense that will be a fail.
I too would welcome tales of how to manage the alarm.
*
The module was hot wired with the engine management system, also bind with the immobilizer module. Not advisable to defuse it. I'm afraid disabling the alarm module could affect the immobilizer, yet your key weren't able to send key code via the transponder to the immobilizer module. This happen when you plot your key, turn the switch, the car only crank 3 times and refuse to crank anymore. Sounded like "Wuekekekek........" then silent. Get it back to Plotong ask those fellas to check on your behalf to see what is wrong if you're still under warranty. Or you can try my suggestion posted above.
