This morning, weren't many cars tauge. Went to visit TanSreePHD Funker Lim ask for some money. On the way down due to afternoon wanna go clubbing, so a little rush. Ayam not even reising, but I think 1 Wigra got triggered his octane booster in his blood stream. Sardenly drop gear chase 9 me laugh.gif Due to running on eco tyre, plus the injury from Mrs.YAB hitting podhole few days ago wasn't sure yet, I also didn't purposely outrun, just play along and gradually drive as usual. Took him awhile to catch up with me. As we reaches the temple area, he sliced into the inner corner, and I, let the car roll to the outter corner. As the Wigra passed, I also didn't bother much about it continue my journey.

As I reach pulis checkpoint, saw the Wigra stopped by the road side(after the checkpoint got a stretch of zebra line. The idiot is pouring water from a mineral water bottle into his front wheel doh.gif I looked at the vapor, as if I saw this => moneyflies.gif

Question to all AT/CVT citizens.

When you wanted to do reverse parking, you're at a stopped, steering angle is fully lock to the turning radius. You've engaged R gear, what next?

hmm.gif now I know how it happened. Yesterday night when I was throwing rubbish outside, saw a blank spot beside my GaGa. A MyBi came home to found a spot to park. If you know already, right opposite of my house is a small jungle hill. Refer old camwhore foto.

user posted image

I saw the MyBi ady stopped at a 45' angle. I believe most AT/CVT driver would have simply release their foot brake and let the car roll backward until a full stop. The moron hit the gas pedal and conquered that hill with it's turtle butt doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif Scared the crap out of my pee hole! It's lucky that it didn't hit any car, cleared the parking space and drive the rear half of the MyBi on the hill.

I was just thinking, gonna help him out since I'm already outside. I was still thinking how am I gonna help, the MyBi act faster than I can imagine. Engaged D and slam on the gas pedal. With the butt hanging high up, the nose dive position. The driver hit the gas pedal again! The MyBi crashed it's front lip and stopped right at the parking box.

The best part is, the owner got out of the car, didn't even inspect what kinda damage. As if this happened all the time, can never bother rclxub.gif

Back to the topic, SAGA.
Which one is good and worth to buy?

For 36k to own a sedan, yes the SV is worthy.

Because I ABS (Aku Berak Sendiri)
Because I EBD (Elak Bentuk Dugong)
Because I like my own alloy rim instead of Plotong ori rim
Because I like R3 bodykit

Hence, there's no need for me to spend so much more to get the exec or the SE.

Talk about YOU. Do you really need the above? If yes, then please get the EXEC. If you THINK the 1.6 engine is going to give you an edge(which not really that much faster than a 1.3 anyways), please go for the SE nod.gif

Sorry if other member sounded sarcastic. They've been always like that, more like troll sweat.gif

On the side note, if Plotong, and if butt is not a concern, can consider Iriz.

EWP extended warranty matter:

Just incase if you're interested to know, here's some idea on how those vinkas works. Extended warranty is a special coverage by insurance/broker that allowed new vehicle to have extended coverage of their warranty period for a specific amount of premium rating. That however, subjected to terms & conditions as any other insurance policy.

Basic terms:
1) Vehicle must be serviced under authorized service centre on time/specified mileage in the factory warranty coverage. This means if any 1 of the service u have exceeded the service period/mileage, your extended warranty is automatically void.
2) No unauthorized modification/replacement of parts on the vehicle. Any unauthorized additional accessories/equipment being installed may render to extended warranty void
3) Its vehicle's owner obligation to continue service their vehicle at authorized service centre/panel workshop of your insurer.
4) Only certain parts are covered under extended warranty, namely engine & transmission. Some company will give u extra coverage of alternator & aircon compressor.

Basically these are the terms clearly stated in your policy(if u have it, which I doubt). If u meet the above BASIC requirement, they have no choice but to indemnify u.

Cheers

hi guys..

just wondering about 2 thing while driving. i see one blm with rear disc brake. lets say that car have abs, will it work after the owner change rear disc brake?

http://www.mudah.my/Disc+brake+Proton+Saga...r+-30071149.htm

btw, not inted to do so due warranty issue

do u all believe decarboniser your car?

http://youtu.be/V2l1yFMGVf8

As far as I know, GaGa ABS only cover the front wheels, shouldn't affect. As for the rear disc brake installation, need to cut & paste with welding. Reliability wise... No comment.

Decarbonize most said it works. I personally think its some sort of gimmicks to make u see smoke blowing out of exhaust pipe, that gave u placebo effect. Engine so new, I doubt there'll be much carbon inside anyways. Provided fuel injection system nowadays is extremely efficient. Take it with a pinch of salt. My going to be 5 years old BLM still working at its optimal condition, proven on dyno machine. Hence there's no need for me to consider decarb at all. nod.gif

Hi David, which type of LED bulb is this? Jagung type or 2 piece of LED type?

Does Savvy use reflector or projector? How is the heat like from your LED?

Hot enough, but not as hot as halogen. Use Reflector as you can see from the 1st picture

I'm talking about H7 main head lights. CORN type LED module is very useful to emit close range, or to give enough lumi for the surrounding reflectors.

Paking lamp is very useful if use CORN type. For 1, I totally disagree to CREE the parking lamp as the FOCUSED light is very annoying. CREE parking lamp the problem is, due to too focus, it doesn't lite up the lamp casing/reflector. At most of the angle, as if no light at all. The trouble is, when the angle is right.... "ARGGHHHH!!! MY EYES!!!!" it blinds me. I got make comparison between CREE and CORN, the result is extremely significant. CORN type, people will notice you from far, but they don't get shined by; whereas CREE type, people might not notice you until they get blind by your CREE focused light doh.gif

You wanna guess which is CREE/CORN? laugh.gif

Anyone with manual gear, how is the clutch pedal engage position. Mine sometime feel like a little too late like 60 or 70% then felt the clutch start to engage.

Went to SC ask them for help they said that position ok, better don't adjust coz can cause the reverse gear cannot masuk.
*
Not reverse gear kenot masok, it's the problem with the clutch plate premature wear off if the pedal action being adjusted. When clutch action adjusted too low, then it post risk to premature wear in gears and final drives. Sometimes before fully declutch, you ady hit the shift sticks, then "creakkk".

Set those all aside, the SC you asked clearly do not know how to adjust clutch action, because our GaGa came with Hydraulic pump. There's nothing for them to adjust other than the clutch pedal actuator itself blink.gif I'm not sure whether the secondary pump can be adjusted at the clutch fork position, until I have a chance to dismantle the transmission for clutch change, then I'll take not on that yawn.gif

Being hit from behind negates most safety measures. I'd say the truck driver was smoking since it appears to have a burn mark on the door, also not wearing a seatbelt as the windscreen was broken.
Love the colour of the FLX, sadly nearly every car on our Aussie roads are only available in the blandest shades possible, usually merely varieties of grey.

I'm in the insurance industries. Vehicle safety is our priority! Paying claims is the pain in my butt because it affects my bonud doh.gif There was once we've been paying too much the company wants us to sit down and talk to the manufacturer in improving safety equipment of the vehicle.

There's a vast of brilliant idea flooded in to our doorstep. Would like to share a few that worth a laugh, not to mention cost of fabrication that will greatly affect the profitability of car manufacturer. So here we got:

1) Rear air bag at the head rest.
Arguement: could render serious injuries/fatal when the balloon popped out and drive the occupant to hit the dash/steering wheel. There's worry of reverse parking that minor accident caused of air bag deploy laugh.gif
Cost of equipment: RM3000/bag, exclude R&D phase expanses

2) Rear kangaroo bar
Arguement: Chassis not strong enough to survive impact that hit the bar. In the event of accidents, the bar could become a killing weapon that penetrates in the cabin & injure/kill its occupant(s)
Cost of equipment: RM1000/bar, exclude mounting points/chassis reinforcement/redesign of rear crumple zone & other R&D related expanses

3) Fighter jet eject seats
Arguement: many!!!
A) roof has to be made with detachable canopy. Structural integrity affected
B) during ejection occupants could hit the canopy like Goose(Anthony Edward) in TopGun.
C) could lose a limb or many during ejection.
D) could hit other road vehicle/fence/wall or worse if vehicle was in a closed environment such as car park/tunnel.
E) occupants must wear parachut & safety helmet, or they're gotta get killed in the event of eject.
F) weight issue of the equipment & its supporting equipments
G) expansive professional maintenance involved
Cost of equipment: expected to be around RM10k/eject seat, aside from supporting equipment/R&D expanses.

So in the end, there aren't any contribution from the general public/professional from insurance company. Most of the ideas are either totally useless, or worse. Instead of saving lifes in the event of accidents, they actually endangered the vehicle occupants laugh.gif
