Hi guys. Have been driving a standard manual version for ~a week. Below are some of my observations/issues:
1. 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.
2. Engine braking (and its noise) is more noticeable after 3rd day driving.
3. Radio sound will suddenly silent for 1-3 sec at certain area...searching for better signal?
4. 1st pump recorded 6.1L/100km but manual calculation is about 6.8L/100km. ~70% highway.
5. wind noise slightly noticeable above 100km/h
6. no rattling or unusual noise, at the moment.
7. cabin noise, ride and handling is rated from good to great. Car feel solid during cornering and cruising.
By the way, anyone in PJ area looking for a good deal can contact @vincent818.

QUOTE(Boss262 @ Oct 9 2016, 03:28 PM) Not that good pal, Manual Persona is literally 10% out of total booking. Basically we're te rare one, apparently driving with manual transmission can consider insane because everyone thought stuck in jam = rip left leg. They doesn't know the clutch for manual persona light as hell. You should get your engine check out, after the fix, the burst of power is great  Same here. I got a manual persona and my relatives called me Ah Pek (uncle)  waiting to get the 'problem' fixed and start vroommmm  |

QUOTE(Chinifity @ Oct 9 2016, 07:55 AM) did ur car radio will tune to volume 20 everytime whn u starting ur car engine? whn i off the car engine, i always will turn down the volume to 10 or below, but whn i start the car engine again it return to volume 20...  oso the 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  The radio volume can be set to the volume level before it was turn off...under MENU, scroll until VOLUME...its in the radio manual, cant remember whc page. |

SC advice to come back for next service after 10,000km. So should be no problem la.. |
