let me rate it

so far for me :

if score from 1 to 10
myvi : 7
axia : 6
plan to put some sound insulation? any good price with affordable price?

oh, thanks. So, my take for Myvi is this:
- Noise - 7
- Vibration - 8
- Harshness - 6

That would be Axia:
- Noise - 6
- Vibration - 7
- Harshness - 5

Correct?

Sound insulation depends where it is coming from... if road noise and engine room, that would be difficult. If door panel is easier.
*
Hmm really? I find the Axia to be quieter than the Myvi, at least it doesn't have that roaring sound coming from the rear like the Myvi.

Vibration yes, Axia vibrates more due to it's 3-pot engine.

Harshness, that Axia is more comfortable on badly paved roads. The Myvi feels trashy and bumpy.

Comparing the Axia AV to the 1.5SE Myvi.

I will visit the workshop this coming weekend and find out more then post the detail here later.
The mechanic from Kuching, Sarawak.
According to the mechanic after reprogrammed:
1. Engine is at least 30% powerful then ori.
2. Fuel economy (Most of the reason doing it)

p/s: Sorry I do not have any more detail until I've meet the mechanic sunday.

I might need to re-consider as it will void the warranty!  Thank you for your advice ya  thumbup.gif

Daihatsu Ayla has the same power output as Axia, what Daihatsu Ayla engineering?

If a mere RM350 can increase power by 30%, all tuner shops can tutup kedai dy.

by the way, may i have simple yes/no for these questions below for AT

1 - advisable to go N before car stalls?
2 - advisable to go N when going downhill? re-engage into D when reach flats

i read that while its ok to go N when car is still in motion its damaging when re-engage into D when the car is still moving... hence the answer for the above is 1-yes 2-no correct?

3 - turn off engine when N should be no problem right

sorry noob abt AT engine notworthy.gif
*
1. No
2. NO. It is dangerous and DOES NOT save fuel.

3. Can.

QUOTE(mkmobile @ May 15 2015, 10:40 AM)
In my opinion and logical sense :

1- Yes, better to go N when car stop, like traffic light or waiting. Try open the engine hood and door, start the engine and try switch gear N to D (with brakes), you can hear different sound, like something is spinning, that's the clutch working. The more it works, the more it wears out faster, though it is designed to last longer for normal use.

*
Holding the brakes in D will wear out the engine mounts sooner. Other than that it will not damage the gearbox.

QUOTE(Petre @ May 15 2015, 10:44 AM)
thanks for your reply.

as for Q1, imagine scenario when i approach traffic light - red. while the car is still moving, is it ok to go N?
*
Advisable to shift into N only after the car has completely stopped.

assuming to go into N only after car completely stalls... means car will go to N from 4-3-2-1 instead of lets say jump form 4 or 3 direct to N

this has to do with damaging anything or just for convenience?
*
why so complicated....just shift from D->N that's all.....N will disengage all the gears.

hi dares
thanks for your reply

i previously was driving a manual car, thus i feel the drag imposed by the AT when going downhill or approaching stop at red light a bit uneasy for me... i think those driving manual will understand. its totally not for fuel saving
thanks khai.hunters86
i think so too... at least i hope so too...
just wonder, is it necessary for your car to go from 4th gear > 3rd > 2nd >1st before you complete stop and only then go to N? imagine right before you stall your transmission is actually at 1st gear and you have to push your brakes in order to stop the car from moving, only then you go N. somehow its doesnt feel right or logic to me

well i'm noob in car engineering or engine/transmission related things but i thought AT supposed to be superior to MT in terms of technology advancement, meaning its supposed to make life even easier instead of the other way round...  hmm.gif

sorry for my noob comments
*
The drag when coasting in gear is called engine braking, which means the engine is slowing down the car. For urban roads engine braking is normal and will not harm the engine. But if you say coming down from long steep mountain roads eg. Genting, extended period of engine braking will overheat the engine due to running lean (engine is burning more O2 than fuel) so you will need to use your footbrakes to supplement the engine braking. But coming down from Genting you cannot rely on footbrakes alone either, because your brakes might fade and that is even more dangerous. Just balance the use of both engine braking and footbraking.

for your second question: As mentioned previously, just stop the car and shift into N, no need to concern yourself with what gear it is in.

Hi All,

I want to ask for your opinion based on your experience. My mother want to buy a car (Axia vs Saga) auto. She will use it maybe 80% in town and 20% highway. Which car is suitable for her? In term of fuel consumption, quality and maintenance.

TQ guys for your opinion.
*
80% town, better just get the Axia.

Unless your family has no sedan, the Saga is more practical although fuel consumption will be quite a bit higher.

That said, that 20% of highway is interstate (eg. PLUS) or intra urban highways (eg.MEX, KESAS)? If that 20% is something like a monthly KL->Penang, better get the Saga.
