Need to double confirm with your guys who'd done the 1K service. Did they change the engine oil to Syntium 800 or just the mineral oil? if Syntium 800, can anyone provide proof? because later I scared goes to SC they only give mineral oil instead of Syntium 800.

I thought the service booklet states 1000km has to change engine oil?

Thats what buffled me, I can't attend the servicing so I asked my father to send the car. They mention to my father that there is no need to change the oil, only routine check if there is any problem with the car.

QUOTE(pauh @ Oct 7 2016, 03:37 PM)
this is weird..then what dey did to ur service reminder info?
*
Once I'll get back I check, afraid my father misread the receipt.

QUOTE(davidletterboyz @ Oct 7 2016, 03:34 PM)
Cannot be right? That's the reason of going to 1K service...to change the engine oil.

Same like mine, around 15KM/l ~15.5KM/l for a mixed driving, 40% city 60% highway. FC is consider great though for a proton. My Saga BLM even only manage 13 KM/

gud job bro  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif
im looking forward to the FC 5.6l / 100km stated from Proton official site

i think the FC will be improved after driving for a certain time, since the engine is still new and thigh
*
I calculated it manually Distant Travel/Fuel used, getting a reading from the speedo meter aren't accurate enough, my meter shows 6.1l/100KM, supposedly around 17KM/l but in reality it's 15.5KM/l but I don't regret the number though, even with 15.5KM/l for a proton to achieved that kind of figure, i'm impressed. Oh advertised FC is around 18.5KM/l, if can get that kind of figure really untung la.

Unlucky man, probably the engine oil is leaking. Better to happened this at home rather at tengah jalan, if not rather susah. Did they solve it in 1 day or need to wait couple day? did they provide courtesy car for you?

How could this happen? Loosed nuts or oil filter? Fortunately u discover early.. This is very serious as like my colleague's gen 2 last time, the gaskets inside burned as the engine oil ady leaked half empty when his car breakdown at the middle of the road because of the loosen drain nuts.
*
I think this is the second case if engine oil leak. Read from somewhere in facebook, their persona also have leaking. Mine is running great after 1k service, infact far more quieter than before.

Better be safe than sorry, glad they take preemptive measure to check the car. Seems like proton really being careful with their production car right now

QUOTE(pauh @ Oct 12 2016, 11:01 AM)
Yesterday just change the EO from Mach 5 to Syntium 800
Also asked SC to fix the rattle problem and wind noise
So far the rattle is gone but wind noise is still there.. vmad.gif
This is 2nd time already the SC fix my wind noise problem..haish..
*
Living with rattling noise right now, but only in uneven road. I don't really care though, some people are not. Just push the SC to fix the wind noise, i think there is dampening need to be done in the windows area, that's where the wind noise is heard.

hi guys, i have use the engine oil they giving for the 3 years parts which is syntium 800 (semi synthetic oil), do u guys think it can last for 10k interval service ? wat will be the effect if the oil cannot tahan tat long ?any sign tat i can know its time to change the engine oil?
*
Probably the engine noise is much harsher as the oil getting thick, but no worries. Syntium 800 can last up to 10K according to the SC. SO if there is any issues related with the oil used, we just tapau them la.

So right now there is 5 persona owners in my neighbourhood. Everyday see each other, smile with ourselves biggrin.gif.

Hmmm... I also wonder why...

What I discovered today is that the RPM hike is not so smooth...

Like say if I step at certain constant amount of fuel during pick up, after 2k RPM the RPM hike faster but have slight jerk. Its like stepped rpm hike... not sure how to describe the feeling and its weird... it happens on gear 1, 2 and 3... could it be due to air cond compressor kick in? as I realize there is slight jerk when air cond compressor kick in... and when air cond kick in, there is some hissing sound like someone just started snoring....
*
tested with both aircond off and on, still the problem exist.

Which problem? U mean the "stepped acceleration"? like the car push bit by bit when hit rpm around 2k

The sudden power drop when you change the gear from 1~2 & 2~3 while accelerating.

My car radio volume fluctuates. It will be softer sometimes and sometimes normal.
Anyone encounters this problem?

Did you use your radio via bluetooth?
