Proton Iriz turning radius is wide or narrow?

Narrow.. 5.0m.. not as narrow as Perodua though..

Bezza/Axia 4.5m iinm..

Preve/Suprima is 5.5m i think..

Hi..comparing 1.3 and 1.6 engine,is there any significant figure in fuel consumption?for city and highway driving,bcoz wanted to do grab for weekdays and travelling on weekend..

ofcourse there are. but to be exact, i not sure by how much. by logic, 1.3 is much more efficient but need to consider the total weight (car + passengers) too.

if u ask me, for city and highway driving 1.3 will be much more efficient. but 1.6 can be more efficient compare to 1.3 on highway at certain speed. this is due to the capability of the engine ofcourse. 150km/h on 1.3 and 150km/h on 1.6 will have a differences in fc.

Based on what I understand from Proton, 1.3 is more fuel saving as the gb for both are of the same settings...

oh really? didnt know that. so 1.3 is more fuel saving it is.

Err.. Isn't that always in the case of FC, the smaller capacity engine is the winner?

yes for normal situation but if you freq highway, the smaller cc engine might need to work out of its optimal rpm to maintain highway speed, that is where the FC will suffer

For highway cruising I agree though . So for grab/uber it is better on 1.3L

For me, take higher cc better cuz I'm heavy pedal most of the time

hello sifus,
im a 2 mths new owner of IRIZ 2015 1.6 model. I have a doubt on the following questions.. appreciate your feedback ya.
1. Occasionally on the meter display show low battery indicator when im pushing start button. Not every time but occasionally. Is it normal? or its about the time to have it changed?
2. FC, a bit disappointing that the facts the FC recorded (self calculate) just 9.6km/l .. city drive to work every day all the way with heavy traffic. is it considerably fair enough?
3. Auto lock. yes it is auto lock after a distance, but tried to figured out why the door can still open from inside. not just the driver's door but all doors even it is in locked condition. but from outside still cannot open la. Is it by design is like that??

Please enlighten me ans share your thoughts.. tq2

1. Just standby spare battery for remote. Approximate lifespan 2yr+. For car battery 2yr+ since 2014

2. FC monthly for me around RM600 that cover 1.2k km every month mix hw n city. To be precise all jamed road in KL

3. 2x pull it will open. Try childlock

1) Whenever my starter cranks up weakly, the meter display would show either "low battery" or "CVT malfunction" symbol. But it isnt the battery, as the problem remains even after I changed to a new battery. I brought it to proton and they find no faults with the starter nor the gearbox either. It's been like this for 3 years now, so I choose to live with it. I think nothing major.

2) Seems fair if heavy traffic.

3) Pull it 2x then it'll open. Doesnt sound right, but some conti cars are like that too.

1. Low on battery or key? Since it’s 2015, most likely about time...

2. Sounds fair if it is indeed so heavy traffic that you’re not moving most of the time

3. It’s one of the safety features of the car. It doesn’t sound right if you are a kidnapper or have malicious intend...

Hi guys,

My rear-view mirror seems loose, always tilt downwards especially after passing through bumps. Any guide how to tighten it?

I also faced the same problem

Same here

1. No idea.
2. Well, its heavy traffic. It takes more fuel to get ur car moving than to maintain momentum. If its a brand new car, petrol consumption would be even higher but will eventually improve.
3. Iriz door is designed to be unlocked by pulling the handle when locked. Pull once, unlock. Pull twice, opens door. Its just like other cars where pulling the locking lever to unlock and pulling the handle to open. Supposed to copy other continental cars.

When we crank our engine, the starter motor will need massive energy to turn the heavy crankshaft by pulling large current from the battery that make its voltage temporarily drop until under 10v in that split seconds.

My theory is at that brief moment our super sensitive info screen will detect low battery, giving false warning. They should be fine tuned to take longer and consistent reading span before actually popping the warning.

any comment on latest iriz 1.6 (MC)

thinking to get 1 to replace my persona elegances
