-rattling sound from Head Unit, dash board panel and aircond (most right hand side)
-power window for driver side doesn't automatically go down
- incorrect petrol remaining meter
-radio signal is nt strong enough , results in the sound quality comes out from the speaker is not clear compared to CD/AUX playing. dunno is antenna or the CD player itself problem

QUOTE-power drop,whn Shifting gear from 1 to 2, 2 to 3 often resulted in immediate drop in power. Have to press more to move the car. However once above ~2000rpm power delivery is good -QUOTE

some solved some nt yet

Now I wonder if my MT will suffer the power drop issue... hopefully mine were fixed like what they did to boss...

Anyway didn't they do anything for your unit like how boss got from them?

From Iriz thread, Iriz has both auto up and down. So I thought it will be the same for Persona. It's understandable other variant doesn't come with auto up, but even premium...

wow.. no auto up is weird man... especially MT driver

What a busy night...

Just got my Grey 1.6 MT

The SA is very friendly and efficient named Alvin Tham from Atiara.. Signed loan at Monday night and tonight got car already bruce.gif

I'm not used to the throttle setup and brake also because the brake almost same height as the fuel pedal... so when I try braking I will raise my right foot higher due to my current car setup all have significant distance between each other... however its good for heel to toe braking anyway.

The throttle respond you really need to step on more to get the expected pick up... compared to Iswara and Myvi

Last week FC : 15.5KM/l

FC current update (Manual) Drop a lil bit this week
Petrol Used : Ron 95 (RM50 at RM1.80 (27.7l)
Distance Travel : 401KM (40% city 60% highway)

Fuel Consumption : 401/27.7 = 14.5KM/l

Probably traffic jam due to Deepavali. Looking forward for next week. Trying my best to get 16Km/l

By the way, after they fixed the power drop, did your car experience higher fc?

Sooner or later the problem came back, i don't know why though. Gonna go to SC again to get this checked out.

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....

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

Update of my car dashboard rattling problem. Found and solved with accessories shop in the sunday afternoon. Its a small gap near passenger A pillar and windscreen, everytime go through bumpy road the dashboard will hit the windscreen and create rattling noise. Solution is sumbat in a sponge to hold the gap, a bit ugly but acceptable better than the annoying 'tuk tuk' sound. Found a good accessories shop with a very nice guy worker. Hard time to find the rattling area, bring the acc guy sit beside me to round and purposely go through bumpy road. What he did was removed the glovebox and use his handphone to take picture inside the dashboard with flash. Slowly minimize the problem area by using fingers to press the possible area, if press hold the right place and the rattling stop then that was the problem cause area. Mr nice chatty guy talking about all sorts of car problem all the way and charged me rm10 only for the sponge tape and the problem solved.  shakehead.gif Sigh proton..famous iriz problem still no improvement, there are sponge originally at the gap but not thick enough to insulate.
*
Sounds like it can be solved on our own if rattling noise are commonly from that area... so far mine no rattling yet, but I do find the slight wind noise at driver door a bit annoying, it wasn't loud, but a bit tickling my ears. Maybe the car is too quiet to begin with tongue.gif

The sudden power drop when you change the gear from 1~2 & 2~3 while accelerating.
*
I started to get used to the fuel pedal... the fuel pedal is less sensitive compared to my other drive by wire car, hence you need to press down more to get my desired power... however my drive still new only 15Xkm.. so can't totally say I'm completely used to the car yet sweat.gif there might still be occasion where I feel the power drop

What I can comment about this MT is very smooth, passenger may not realize you're driving a MT without looking at the gear knob...
And the acceleration is also too smooth until I don't have those acceleration feeling... so there's time I may not realize I've gone too fast or too slow(uphill)... because the feeling is so identical

QUOTE(Imagination *-* @ Nov 2 2016, 12:21 AM)
Hi guys, I'm having the saga 2016 manual and is very convinced that I'm having the lack of power delivery for gear 1 and 2.

I don't know why but when the engine is cold and idle rpm is at 1.1k power delivery in gear 1 and 2 is so snappy and responsive.

But when the engine is at operating temperatures.. With idle of around 900 rpm... It is sluggish as hell. It's a constant struggle trying to move from standstill and getting into speed from gear 1 to gear 2. When pushed the accelerator hard in gear 1 (rpm to 3.5k), then shifting to gear 2, the engine breaking jerk is so strong due to the delay in power delivery.

Also sometimes in gear 1 or 2. There is a sudden jerk when revving up. Trying to launch hard from standstill is near impossible as it is nearly impossible to obtain smooth gear changes by trying to rev match. So many things to concentrate on when accelerating with frequent constant eyes on rpm meter (since nvh is so good, I like this)

Seriously this is pissing me off as I assumed that manual will be the way to go as I've enjoyed my old iswara manual. Now it feels like a struggle. Reeaaaaaally slow pickup from standstill it embarrasses me sad.gif

Feel like investing in a accelerator booster in the near future (it's damn costly)

In addition to this (not minding much) fuel consumption is at around 9-10km/litre. 100% city Drive with around 12 traffic lights? It's pretty low (ok I do mind)

But When let SC technical test drive he says its ok. Don't know what to do d... But I'm dead serious that the car feels good on cold engine running. So snappy. Most enjoyable 5mins before the engine gets hot.
*
Seems like the Saga is having similar feeling with the throttle respond here...

How long have you drove the car? I do agree Iswara power delivery is more immediate, even compared to persona, but 1 thing I do realize is that the comfort and stability of the persona really masked the feeling of acceleration, what's more the sound and engine vibration on the steering is almost none-existence...
Because for my case, when I look at the meter, I do get the acceleration I want (mind that I have feather-like right leg), but I just don't feel it... haven't gone through much hard acceleration situation yet so can't comment much... and yes, I do need to pedal down more to reach the amount of power compared to other car, in other words, I can also reach very minimal power at minimum effort as well, thanks to the less sensitive pedal, like in a situation of seeking for parking with 1st gear, atleast I can manage the power smoothly without jerking

For FC, if you get 9 - 10km/l for full city drive with tight engine, I think it is pretty good. FLX MT that I drove before only manage 8-9km/l for full city drive even after engine run in... some Bezza owner also reporting around 11km/l only for full city drive

Isn't that like very high fuel consumption. Saga don't show average fuel consumption so its quite hard to get "solid"  readings. But on average on 1 bar of petrol is 60km. Thus 60 x 6 = 360km city drive

Not bad eh if see it this way.

*also hope ya'll don't mind me bring in saga stuff as I assume engine and transmission is similar? Only capacity different. Can't seem to find new saga official thread here
*
Sure no problem, its also good for us to share any problems and possible fix even it wasn't the same car, but power train is quite similar in my opinion...

360km for full city drive is quite good in my opinion... but this also highly depending on how you drive and the average speed as well..

Some say engine mileage will get better after 1st service, and after 10k service, it should be much better as well

Stock tyre are noisy as hell but I take it yours is premium seeing the sport rim in silver and it should be Goodyear right? I might change mine when it's due. Right now gonna have to embrace the road noise, use it until it's gone.

Almost involve in accident today, took a corner at 110km/h at kota damansara plus exit. Usually can took the corner pretty easily without any problem but today didn't notice it was raining, road condition were wet. Almost hit the divider, thanks god for the ESC. If not my persona would be hitting the workshop right now. Had it all recorded, but my upload speed are shitty 50KBps  bangwall.gif

Kasi share link... did the ESC light on ? mayb too nervous to notice that...
