1) The manual also say that you need to take into consideration the number of passengers and the car boot load. I just pump it to 220 all round and hope the stock tyres can go botak sooner so I can tell wife, wife, tyres already botak, can change or not? smile.gif

2) When on slope, HSA kick-in when the pedal brake is pressed. I read somewhere that hand brake is not counted but I have not tried it. The car won't gostan if you press the gas pedal with 2-3 second after you released the foot brake.

3) Depend on the slope gradient.

4) The 12v socket in front of the CVT should be able to support the phone charger. Brand wise, it all depend on what the shop carried but don't buy cheap, cheap. I intend to go to Lowyat to get one.

5) Can't answer you.

5) any pasar malam phone holder will do. Ive been using mine for like 5 yrs

cheeshong drsmallkid and those who got less than 280km for 1 tank

Care to share your Average speed and total driving time for that fuel up?

For my last fuel up I get around average of 45km/h and somewhere 12 hours drive time, most of other fuel up, I got similar reading as well.

It manage to travel around 460km and still have 2 bars left... the fuel up got me around 31 litre of fuel. total time involved in bumper to bumper traffic is around 2 hours for this fuel up... the rest is mix highway and city drive 50 50

460km with 2 bar left fulamak.... My cvt persona can only manage to go 430km with 70% highway 30% city hahahahaha. Manual persona is so much more efficient than the cvt. Mind telling whats the rpm when u r going at around 100kmh?

Shouldn't cause any problem other than the display keep showing need inspection, you may take it to service centre to get it reset if that's an eyesore

Meanwhile for mine at 1k km service they ter-reset to 20k km/12 months for next service  doh.gif
But I didn't do anything since I don't really mind that...
*
hahaha i guess i'll wait till 5k service. I did my service at sin siang hin ampang and their service is pretty good i must say plus u will get a coupon for a car wash too!

hi sigh,
just bought graphite grey persona premium, 1 month old already, do u all experience proton infotainment hang randomly especially after fail to connect to phone via bluetooth?? and the bluetooth also quite shitty ler... when my infotainment player mood is good then it will connect to my phone, when its mood not good, then it won't connect at all... sometime straight away hang... no matter what i do(off engine also can't resolve the hang problem), it will just hang....

Your fc improves as your mileage grows?

My car's mileage is around 2.3k now and my fc improves significantly as mileage grows. I came back from ipoh during last sunday and it was insane. Highway jammed until trolak but i took the old road from ipoh to tanjung malim and merged onto the highway afterwards. I maintained my speed at around 120kmh for the whole journey (max is 160kmh) and potong a few lorries on the old road with full throttle (it was very dark and scary as f). After reaching KL i kept on driving until my fuel indicator lit and i managed 500km full tank. Quite impressed with the FC on highway. Mine is a persona cvt premium. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Niceee

I also have FC report here for 9k mileage Persona MT

Today I travelled to Tampin with Highway at speed around 140km/h to 150km/h, heavy and spirited driving.
Return trip use old trunk road with some traffic through seremban to nilai and back to KL

Went to fuel up hoping I can get a 12km/l, end up my calculation gave me a 13.6km/l which is pretty impressive!
Last time before 1k km mileage I tried similar road with similar driving style too, but that one return trip also using highway get me only 12.8km/l
But that one with 4 person in car, this round is 2.
*
But fuel consumption is very bad during heavy traffic. I guess this happens to all of the cars also haha bruce.gif bruce.gif bruce.gif

I thought I'm the only one having trouble with this problem, its seems like I'm not alien anymore. When raining, the water gather around the area makes the side mirror view becomes unclear. Seems like the only way to prevent this from happening is to buy the side cover or what the name is called forgot.

Engine no problem. runs like it should. just no idea this rattling coming from engine or other parts.  icon_question.gif

Maybe I'm lugging the engine? I can eliminate this problem if I always rev my car more than 2.5k and shift @ 3.5k. Vroom Vroom.

From the video I'm on a hill in gear 2. Revs are below 2k when I begin to accelerate.

is it the metal sound coming from the engine that is rattling? Ur engine noise is quite similar to mine under load

Yes correct. Its from the engine compartment.

Either its....

1. Engine pre-detonation

2. Exhaust system rattle. this user solved it by tightening his heat shield.

Go for other big proton service centre. I've heard many bad stories about cose. Cant believe they said its normal hahaha
