Hi guys, i want to ask is the L gear in saga CVT same as the S gear in Preve iafm version? My friend always use the S mode to overtake cars and it really is fast. And i read some post saying that the L in Saga CVT is actually the S mode like in Preve. So can I use L mode to overtake cars while im travelling at about 80km/h?

L gear is Lacing mode sure can use... tongue.gif

L gear is called low ratio if I'm not mistaken, not low gear.
Torque comes earlier on L gear compared to D. And also a whole lot more of engine braking

v12kompressor has gone beyond 160km/h on L few years ago. Got picture proof also ahahah

As for S mode on preve, I can't comment on that as I've never driven one before. biggrin.gif

TS V12kompressor. Mohon include information on 1st page new car checklist.

I have just came to an unfortunate incident from a client, and my company wouldn't pay the claim on the accident. Please reconfirm several things before collect car and sign off the collection contract.

1) Chassis number indicate in the registration card
2) Chassis number indicate on the door ID plate
3) Chassis number indicate on the middle structure beam under driver seat
4) Engine number indicate in the registration card
5) Engine number indicate on the door ID plate
6) Physical imprint engine number on engine block

I don't remember whether our Saga the door ID plate located at bottom of B pillar has engine/chassis number imprinted. If not applicable, please remove from this list. The reason I brought this up was, I just had a big headache when the insurance company refused to pay the claim. According to the investigator report, the only thing the car matches the registration card was the plate number and engine number. The chassis number on the car chassis does not match with registration card. The door plate also not match, worst is its different then the actual chassis number imprinted on the car body. I don't know how this happen. It's not a Proton, but I'd like to address this issue so everyone will take note.

That's really bad.

Did the customer bought the car from new or second hand?

Pity the customer. How is this possible?

Actually those are pre-delivery SOP by SAs before handing over the keys to owner.

The thing is, it happened now. After the owner collected his "NEW" car 7 years ago, first time met an accident and found out shit hits the fan. Just a suggestion, owner should also check it by themself properly. Wouldn't know whether the SA/the francise/dealer have a leg on this? Could the car be a theft loss car from other country? How do they get the registration card up? No 1 knows. Ask me, I have never really read that much of detail other then the engine number and physical chassis number.

If the engine RPM difference not so much from D to L mode, theoretically it shouldn't be any problem right? Overtaking cars on D mode is enough, but sometime really need instant power overtaking on this Borneo single lane "highway". biggrin.gif Whereas SAT mode actually deliver faster response because the transmission no need to search for the suitable ratio all the time, it just need to choose to downshift one or 2 or more programmed gear ratio. But the single "gear" is "running out too fast". Means that when i want to overtake, it downshift 2 gears, but as the car accelerates, the rpm reach red line very fast but I still not yet finish my overtake, so it need to upshift while overtake, which delays some time. hmm.gif

Beyond 90kph, then no need to bother shifting down to L.

Going to 15" won't increase comfort as you'll be running on 195/50/r15 tyre. 50 profile tyre isn't that thick. 195/55 would be better but it'll sagat the fender.

14" is your best bet to maintain comfort.
*
i see. i thought 15" can give better comfort... then i will skip this part... if stock spring 195/55 also will sagat the fender ?


Just lost my car key... went to ask two locksmith nearby both of them quote me RM180 and RM250 for the car key duplicate with chips... anyone can recommend me cheaper alternative ?


How about stiff ring and bar ? izzit front strut bar and anti roll bar is more than enuff ?

Disagree on SAT deliver faster response whistling.gif Put your car side by side with another FLX do the test. SAT may have a train wreck feeling when hitting the gas pedal that simulate by a giant shift shock. However, the actual simulation of shiftshock and torque converter smoothness emulation would take up much more time then when you're in D mode.

Being known as a CVT, the transmission does not need to SEARCH for a best ratio. When you hit the gas pedal on, it simply goes max torque ranged RPM (4~6krpm) and off you go! The only reason you don't get the "RESPONSE" feeling is because you don't have the idiotic hit by a train normal AT characters.

195/50R15 WILL sagat sometimes. 195/55R15 kon9lan7fem sagat siut. Scratch until your tayar burst in to flame. Unless you change to taxi spring.

Strut bar basically can't be feel at all. However, it provide certain degree of safety. Give an take, it may also make more damage to the car in the event of road accident. Anti roll bar will make your rear end even more stiffer. I don't see how STIFF will relate to COMFORT.

The keys is about that price.

Go 175/65R14 Mybi saiz, the best comfortable size I've ever use. Wider does not give comfort. Thicker, yes.

No reply? Call him then. If lansi? Ask him sek si go outside buy.

Stiff ring is a collar that placed at the lower control arms before bolt on the nuts. Reason for doing that is to eliminate as much free space as possible, so your steering feedback become more DIRECT. Again, has nothing to do with comfort AT ALL.

More comfort setups? Go find a set of BLM rear spring, probably cost you less then RM50. It makes your rear end feels like RolceRoyce yo! No it does not jeopardize the handling at all. Only drawback is, the car look butt sag like any other BLM you seen on the road.
