If you are using an Evo4 servo, make sure you practice emergency braking and get used to the increase in braking power.

If brake servo very powderful but you lock up your tires during emergency braking, no use liao.

my petrol consumption calculation always show around 7l to 8l /100km which the data is kind of good. However, in actual calculation, i always pump my car around 35l and the distance i go only around 300km... slightly better with highway which can goes to 400km.
do any of you guys facing this "lier" fuel consumption calculation from the board of meter?

The meter only calculates average FC. It is not instant calculation. It will only a bit accurate after you reset it every time you fill up.

If you can replicate the sound, then it's worth checking.

mine is persona standard, 15 inch stock rim, budget possible below 200/tyre, rm150 would be better

as long its ok durable, comfort, not to noisy and safe it will be ok

Persona Standard tak ada ABS right? hmm.gif Better keep around your current budget of RM200 or increase it instead of buying cheap tyres cause it's really not fun to lock the wheels every time there's a need to do hard braking, especially in the wet. Ask nestum for recommendations on the best tyre to take smile.gif.
*
Agreed. RM150 per tyre will most likely get unknown brand of tyre.

yeah no ABS, I am not a heavy foot driver. but also willing to pull the budget up to rm200/tyre. any recommended shop around Ampang/ Cheras..

Falken Ziex 912, is it gooding? i heard Falken tyre is a bit hard but last long
*
At 170/175 per piece, I would say it is the best all rounder tyre in the 'under RM200' category. Last quite a distance, good dry and wet grip. Quite difficult to make the tyre squeal during touge sessions. But a bit noisy.

Persona 1.6MT Tranq Black rear drum with 15" Alloy reporting  flex.gif

Hi all, got this car from my brother as he went to work overseas. I actually didn't want to inherit the car, because I already got another and one 'under consideration for restore' vehicle.

But after driving the Persona for half a year, i noticed that the quality of the car as a whole is unlike the Protons of my generation (Iswara/Satria/Wira/Putra). Things that are broken or need to be replaced are;

-Aircon panel switch (On/Off ikut suka)
-Central locking module (Going crazy with lock unlock lock unlock)
-Crankshaft oil seal needs replacement (Need to check engine oil regularly, cant high rev, dirty underside)
-Rear wheel bearing needs replacement (Right side)
-Water in the cabin floor (thanks to the door plastic film seals being so crappy and the water outlet from cooling coil under the dash came loose and allowed the dripping to happen directly on top of the AIRBAG module)
-Rear door rubber seal ALWAYS comes off
-Bushes that holds the steering rack need to be replaced (Can't achieve a good alignment result)

And the car is end 2013 with 30k on the mileage and just 1 time renew roadtax yet all these happens....maybe got a lemon sad.gif

Feel like selling the car if it continues to make problem.  hmm.gif But maybe, just ignore standard and go with mods  brows.gif

Looks like you got a lemon. Mine has 115k mileage and I dont have those problems *touch wood*

is it normal if the fan (not sure which fan, radiator maybe) still on after engine is off?
After a few minutes it will off, but not immediately after engine is off?

Normal. Mine happens after spirited driving. The engine is cooling itself. Its best to let the engine run for 1 or 2 minutes before shutting off, especially after high speed run.
