characteristic of campro
it high rev engine

i've tested this out.

1. Car is stationary in neutral gear.
2. On air-conditioning (A/C on)
3. Place feet on accelerator lightly (around 5% depression) and not moving my feet as hard as i can. RPM stays @ 2500 rpm.
4. Wait for air-cond compressor to turn on.
5. Air- cond compressor comes on.
6. RPM drops 500 to 2000 rpm while feet still constant at the accelerator.
7. Compressor turns off. RPM goes back to 2500 rpm.


Now the question is, is it supposed to be like this? Isn't my ecu supposed to tell my engine to compensate that loss of 500 rpm??? Something is definitely not right here.

My car really drives good when air cond is turned off and sucks significantly when it is turned on.

ini air con compressor HP high so watever campro engine with IAFM la VVT ar or watever is..sure got this kind of problem..
turn off aircond and drive wont face this issue lo

yes it is. my case is maintain 2000rpm constant and it drops 1000rpm when the compressor kicks in and it will back to normal if your compressor keep on kick in long enough. you can imagine how much fuel you can save if there's another lower output compressor can be used (at the drawback of not so cold aircond), nothign is free though.

woah VVT with Turbo

any sifu can give me a tips for saga VVT drive to genting highland?

feel little bit scare due to Campro engine VVT + CVT on genting road since ayam biasa bawak old manual wira on genting road back then

appreciate any tips .... TQ

I've never driven the Saga up to genting, but the corners at highway Kl-karak, that is before genting sempah tunnel (uphill from KL), my Saga can reached 120kph cornering speed, even a Honda Jazz also give way.

Put the gear at L position, the power is more immediate, but the downside of it is higher fuel consumption.

no problem for saga BLM to climb up, albeit it's manual but i don't think it's very different to CVT + VVT combo.

make a go will do.

maybe people buy old saga plus more since it cheaper compare to new VVT

Hello.. new saga vvt user here..
just got my new car last Saturday..

is new saga vvt slow pick up is common ?

ya maybe, not in this forum.
But in facebook got a lot. I bet they are not forum kinda user.


BTW, just wanna share a bit about the gluk2 sound when crossing speed bump.


This one is called bump stopper. Just go to SC and ask for replacement. Dont forget to apply grease on the part. Mine will do next week after go back to KL.

its common for cvt clutch. It is the clutch engage makes it a bit lag.
I was really bothered at the first time but after a month of driving i can get used to it.
some other user taught me to let the car move a bit before step on the gas and increase gradually. Dont hit to much. just like how you drive a manual car.

just now i call my SA say that car pick up slow, then she suggest me take to SC redo setting.
In this case now, do i still need go for SC ?

Thanks in advance

Are u sure from dealer? it is from Proton i confirm with my SA.

Slow pick up when moving from stop, Yes. You had to let the car to roll a little before you step on the throttle.

Keep on eye on the RPM meter, above 1k rpm, it's okay to step on the throttle.

Below 1k rpm, don't step on the throttle. It will slingshot your car to the front.

Pick up when the car is already moving, it's excellent.
Loved the cvt more than conventional auto. Conventional auto is rough, and not smooth at all.

thanks for the advice.. in that case i no need drop by to service center d right?

they can do clutch adaptation for you. you might notice a little different. If they want to redo the setting and you find it useful, then share to us also. hehe
