QUOTE(burning @ Sep 11 2016, 12:40 PM) Done Service 1K Very sincere and honest review by you. Thanks atoneEngine is much smooth. Since labour and engine oil are free. Upgraded to fully synthetic engine oil for RM85. Pump RON97 and felt the engine power kick in. Blast at 183kmj at Bukit Jalil to Putrajaya highway.Before, do survey no police from Bukit Jallil to putrajaya then Uturn and blast the car. My experience. 1. 0 to 40. Steering feel light 2. 55 to 90. the steering different from light 3. 110kmj to 183kmj bit heavy. Believe the car setting. can anyone comfirm this If you blast from 110 to 160. Engine felt kick in slow. But when you stomp aggressive from 50 to 183kmj it does move on. I dont dare to exceed 183kmj but i'm sure Persona can reach more. (not racer or wanabe) Noise engine 1. below 90kmj quite. 2. about 110kmj (rpm about 2800rpm at 110kmj) engine can hear roar a bit. 3. about 183kmj about 5K rpm. Unfortunate Leg shaken. but cornering at 160kmj is stable. I know the car can push more. Migrated from MyVi 1.3 (A) 2014. Cornering are stable at 160kmj. It does not wobbling side to side due to car heavy. Pick up.. traction control does help. rpm gone up to down but tyre grip to move on. Engine roar loud when you reach 4.5K rpm. So dont expect much there. To end this. for driving below 110kmj rpm reach almost 3K rpm. Probably proton should rexduce it to 2.7 or 2.6K rpm. CVT ratio needed to change. Stability. I have no issue. It beat Myvi clear cut. Brake. it grip. But when the ABS kick in... you can hear the brake hammering. Not sure other car do the same. Log record - Proton do download the car performance record. I guess i'm the guinea pig for their next action plan. Body and engine rattling. I dont hear any. But cant expect much at 1K km car. I'm not going to blast 180kmj anymore. Leg shaken, eyes open widely. Early 4 series age. youngster will able to beat that records anytime. Enclosed the persona dashboard fuel economy record. As for the steering tension , because its electrical P.S maybe it could tightened the steering wheel As speed increases |

QUOTE(homerthewhopper @ Sep 8 2016, 02:13 PM) Test drove the persona last friday. Have to agree, the cvt is much smoother now. A very significant improvement. Very nice! My wife loved it too, so much that she said she won't mind changing her 1.3 cvt exec to this... The new persona is giving me something to ponder upon, either to continue buying the best value for money car which is an iriz std, for my kids as their first car, manuals for sons, cvt for my daughter, or buying the new persona std instead.. |

Does it make a difference in terms of fuel saving if I off the traction control? On the meter for consumption. What is the norm consumption values ? On my manual, engine feel like not very smooth.

Ok Guys...
Here are the results for fuel economy Persona 1.6 CVT premium Total Distance:293.4 km Fuel : RON 97 (rm2.05 per litter) Total fuel : RM 49.43 (24.112 km per litter) Passenger : Driver with spouse and 2 Kids (Healthy one) Range: From Pandan Indah to Bukit tinggi. (Climbing hill ) Then back to Pandan. (Genting sempah) Go to work through Cheras Traffic jam Coming back from work Then go to work in KL again (traffic) then come back home. Then pump fuel at Cheras Shell. (Mcdonald) It's 0.168 per km So.... Since the test were tested on Highway, climbing hill and downhill and going to work through traffic. Does it economy? Well nope ... But surely I felt comfort and enjoy driving it. Compare with my MyVi 1.3 (A) 2014. Perodua is more economy. But I felt safe while driving persona, probably due to stability and less fatique for long distance. Nothing wrong with my Myvi, just different practical used for each car. Encloed the persona dashboard mileage and Bukit Tinggi Mosque as prove. Tak Percaya? Attached thumbnail(s) |

QUOTE(Zoxoque @ Sep 15 2016, 06:32 AM) Did not calculate that Sir. I was concentrate on the road.I wont get that speed from idle 110kmj. I have to ramp it up from 50kmj to 183kmj. Probably while on high rpm, you can get that speed. Not sure though someone have done it at 202kmj. To me, reaching 183kmj is like flying already. And engine is crying out loud. Just to show whois the boss. BTW- 183kmj I was alone. Fuel tank is quater RON97. @sgshuhu Free service are come with Semi Synthetic oil. If you upgrade to fully synthetic. Just add RM85 only. |

Encloed the persona dashboard mileage and Bukit Tinggi Mosque as prove. Tak Percaya? However being a new engine, and heavy climb up, traffic jam, its typical to have that kind of mileage. To get a better fc reading is after at least 10k to 20k mileage (and several time of eo replacement/service). Next maybe u wanna try win ron95? Most of the engine is tuned for ron95, being our lowest grade. |
