hi, have u compare ur choice with other cars? if yes and u still wanna go for iriz, i suggest u take the manual ver. there are no problem with cvt auto but the cvt behavior might give u a bit problem which is delay and jerking. u need some time to "tame" it.

apart from that, u need to:

1. check interior and exterior for any defect
2. check engine bay for any sign of water mark
3. check for any sign of water mark inside interior
4. check all electronics inside the car
5. check the smoothness of the engine. if its too loud, vibrate or if there is any anomaly, then something wrong. iriz are not that loud.

i would love to help but only if its nearby and if im free

The delay and jerky CVT issue has been addressed by the latest CVT update...
If updated properly, our Iriz should feel like the latest 2017 MC version except for the NVH...

need on opinion guys.. im about to buy a showroom unit 2015 iriz 1.6 premium priced at RM36500. The condition i must say about 98% new and still got smell "bau kedai" and the mileage at about just 3.5km.

I know 2017 model is the refined one, it will cost me RM52K (after discount), and i also aware the any model before 2017 has got many minor nyamuk2 problem.

What do you think guys. Really need ur advise.

Thanks in advance.

Damn son. Thats a good deal. If show room car and only 3.5 km then its hardly driven. As some has said, try asking for the battery to be replaced(if possible with the original ramcar brand battery since it kinda last very long[mine almost 3 years already]). Tyres, if they are in good condition, its ok to use it but after getting ur car, I recommend switching them to something better. Showroom cars tend to sit still on the same spot over long periods of time.

Its a great car. Just that ive grown over the power from the engine. Need to upgrade. Keep getting left behind by turbos/higher cc cars.

Hi,

Do you have any idea when this CVT update rolled out?

My car was last serviced at COE on 25th November, not sure if it was updated.

Thanks.

Not too sure when the exact date of the update was done nor the version of the update.

Best is to go test the new Iriz...if it doesn’t feel like your Iriz, bring your Iriz for update in next service

If outside noise is louder than before you changed hour tyre, it means your tyres now are quieter that previous ones.

I can tolerate outside noises more than road noise

Just to share some photos how to change EO, Spark plug, coolant and air filter for S4PH engine or iriz 1.6 cvt premium. Even my mileage still 30k km and still under warranty by proton i got personal reasons and plan to DIY ing. Since fuel filter is out of stocks maybe i will show it next time.

The basic and compulsory tools are 8mm and 14mm spanars, 902-p14-67mm oil filter wrench with 26mm-27mm spannar, 14mm spark plug socket, philips screwdriver and jacks set.

For those who are not familiar with engine system and still under warranty by proton I AM VERY NOT ADVISABLE TO DO IT YOURSELF and iam not responsible for any damage/safety etc.!!!

DIY How to Change Iriz EO and Oil Filter
1. Start and drive your car for 10-15 mins (if morning/cold) to warm your engine. Or, wait at least 30 mins if yr engine already hot to avoid getting burned.
2. Find the flat and solid surface to do your task.
3. Get 2 bricks or any hard materials to put every rear tyres then reverse drive your car onto this ramps to make in horizon and easy leveling later (optional) ...refer pic 7&8
4. Jack up front body on driver side. U must use jack stand to hold the body not the jack alone. and optional jack up front passenger side together with jack stand..refer pic 8&9
5. Open/loose engine oil cap, Locate the oil drain plug (pic.11) Carefully unscrew drain plug using 14mm spanner (pic.6) until loose,…stop.. place the oil pan (min 5 liter liquid capacity) below it. Unscrew the plug by hand …Drain out old EO. ...
6. Optional, it u have extra unused EO just pouring in (pic.12) for extra ‘Flushing’ the remaining old EO inside the engine..300ml-500ml.
7. Then, Locate the EO filter (pic10). Unscrew it by using oil filter wrench size 902-p14-67mm with 26mm or 27mm spanner (pic5). Clean both drain plug and oil filter mount/base by using clean cloth (pic.16). Before put new oil filter, use new oil to coat the oil filter gasket. Optional, pour new oil into new oil filter quarterly to wet the filter paper and remove excessive oil and metal particle (if any)…(pic.13,14 &15)
8. Put new filter by using hand-tighten first until u feel ‘lock’ , then by using wrench make 2/3 to ¾ turn . Then drain plug, replace new oil seal (pic.3) hand-tighten then ½ to 1+ turn by spanner.
9. Pour new EO to engine (pic.18), iris 1.6 require 3.6-3.7 liters EO, start your engine, check any leakage. EO levels ..Done.

Btw, Original Iriz Oil filter is dark blue color with Code Num.: PW811577, another OEM Proton that fit is white color PC121102.

This is how to replace spark plugs :

DIY How to Change Iriz Spark Plugs
1. Remove top Proton engine cover by unscrew 4 corners either by using Philips screwdriver or 8mm socket. (pic.1&2)
2. Disconnect all the ignition coil by removing the clips by using longnose pliers. In my case, I will take out ignition coil first by using 8mm socket then disconnect the clip since very dusty problem.
3. By using 14mm spark plug socket, “L” shape and extension bar unscrew carefully old spark plug then put some clean tissue paper into the hole to prevent the debris falling down to the cylinder .(pic4,5,6,7)
4. Repeat step2 and 3 for the rest 3 spark plugs.
5. Clean, check and re-grease by using lithium grease on end tips of ignition coil spring and connector as well .(pic.8 &9)
6. Clean and remove any debris on engine top (pic 10 &11).
7. Remove the tissue paper. Carefully, put new spark plugs with light hand-tighten first until u feel ‘lock’ , then by using wrench make 1/2 to 2/3 turn . (pic12,13 & 14).
8. Put back ignition coil by push+swing move down and screw back. Re-connect the cable with clips. (pic15)
9. Start your engine, check any weird sound or small blue spark (if any)…don’t touch by bare hand due high voltage!!! Stop engine…if not…put the proton engine cover back. Done.

Btw, Original Iriz spark plug code number is PW812674 LKAR7C-9, cooper core with 30k km lifetime, u can use NGK LKAR7C-9 as well.

Last but not least, air filter (20k km) and coolant. For ori proton coolant should be last for 54months or 90k km. But personally i feel more secure if i do it 36months interval.

Total damage is less then rm300, combination with lazada, proton stockist and sparepart shop. Pesonally, i feel my toyota engine and my previous waja 1.8 renault engine are more easier to DIY then iriz.
TQVM.
