Wow happy for you. For me I have yet to see any of the updated versions on the road, so looking forward to see how they look like. Anyone with the pre-updated bezza that went for the "product improvement" program? How was it?

not sure, but I think they have a special interface computer at the workshop for that, so unlikely we can do it ourselves.

oh interesting info. must wait two seconds before press start button. first time i heard

Haha I can actually answer this question now. Funny enough, just today, in the same day I saw not one but TWO of the updated Bezza, and one was even sugar brown, my color! Both of them had plate starting VAB (so fast!!) so I knew that high chance it would be updated and sure enough once they got in front of me, they were.

Now that I seen two on the road, I think I can share my early opinion. honestly to me, it didn't look lowered at all because butt still seem to be high. Only thing that change is what I assume is the rear diffuser (black strip right below the tail bumper) is wider (or longer vertically) so it can basically hide the underside of the car which can easily be seen otherwise (as the spare tayar well can be seen on pre-update Bezza). But I've only seen it twice, and hoping to see more of them to form more solid opinion.

Based on what little I've seen,

Does this improve the look of the car from the back? I would say yes, a little.

Is it worth the money to do a gear up product improvement? Really subjective question, but for me I don't think so. The high butt of the Bezzaa is not really a problem for me from the beginning, so not really priority for me to fix it. If there was a cheaper aftermarket diffuser for sale, maybe will consider, but to blow 2000 for gear up "product improvement" is really out of the question for me.

And.. to actually answer your question, when I saw the updated car, the rear still seems as high off the ground as ours, so will it be an issue on industrial area roads? I don't think so. If scared of damage to the side skirts, maybe just opt for the rear diffuser? Can buy it separately?

Done. Welcome to the thread! Sorry to hear about your bad experience. At least u got the updated model!

Ya why does it take 10 seconds for your eco idle to restart the engine. As a few have posted, it should only take 1-2 seconds, quite unnoticeable.

Personally i reverse park most of the time. So to prevent my eco idle from kicking in when I stop to change from D to R, i quickly push the gear into N before I come to a complete stop. That way eco idle doesn't kick in, and from there I just shift from N to R once the car stop moving forward.

Also just to add, yes there is a switch to disable eco idle, but do note that it auto turns on anyway every time you start the car. So as far as I know there is no way to permanently disable it. You will have to press the switch to off it everytime you start your car.

That said, I do think that VSC and traction control, as safety features, definitely make the advance variant the better choice. I mean seriously your safety and that of your family's are at stake.

Lol exactly the same thing happens to me. In addition to the whining sound from the gearbox. A mechanic told me that Bezza gearbox will have problem. See how

good info, thanks for sharing. and indeed alza SE black rim does look good fit for brown bezza. just want to ask, which shop will stock this rim? or must just go and ask around?

Hmm.. my bezza usually runs till 450km and still has two bar left on the fuel gauge. According to "range" it can go another 50+ km , so theoretically a full tank gets me about 500+ km till empty I guess. I get about 17-18 km/l on average. I cruise a lot, and I'm very careful with the accelerator. Also I'm usually on highways.

Really? That's the first time I heard that. Usually have to remove and add again right?

Sure will do! Sorry late reply was away for a while.

Hey, Auto or Manual?

Mine had that too. After I went for first 5000 inspection and mentioned it to the SC, the sound has disappeared and not come back. Now 10,000 km plus de. Went to the Selayang Perodua SC. Now I go to the Keramat Perodua SC.

I'm not an admin, but I am the TS, so yes I am compiling helpful solutions in the first or second post of this thread.

I'd like to remind all who have problems to check the very first post of this thread, under "Known issues and solutions" or "useful information" to see if your problem has been discussed before. You might find a solution there!

I do seem to recall that we have a bit of info on the Android Smartlink set up in the "Useful information" heading , so please do check there. If it doesn't help you , please let me know what does so I can compile it in the first post for future reference.

I will add shinkawa's post to the first post shortly. And thank you shinkawa for your help to compile.

Added, and welcome! My advance is a pre-update (Dec 2016) and it does have a mirror in the passenger sun visor. Maybe the earliest models don't have it. Only thing my wife complains it doesn't have a cover!

Just to share what I do, I wrap the entire jack in one of those a cheapo black rubber mat (you know, the one with lots of holes suppose to put on dashboard to grip stuff) before I place it back under the seat.

I must recommend Segambut sc. when I went there, I felt like they really took my issues seriously and worked with me to find a solution. My sc rep, forgot her name, also had like A really good working attitude. Had ticking noise whenever I went over bumps or humps and after bringing it up, it was resolved. Now I go to Keramat SC coz it's nearer my new home, but comparatively think Segambut is better, so I might revert back to going to them.

I have this too. And also from 2nd to 3rd gear it happens if I don't press enough gas.

My eyes!

that said, as we were discussing idle stop time some pages ago, i want to add that it should be possible to get the maximum 3 minutes of idle stop... i read in the manual that idle stop is capped at a maximum of 3 minutes, and i routinely do experience that .. what i do is once I'm in idle stop, i turn the AC dial to off (AC fan can continue running), and that pretty much negates the cabin temperature aspect of the Idle stop start system.. but nothing else i do can make the idle stop last for more than 3 minutes, once 3 minutes is reached, the engine just starts and the A logo flashes three times. pretty cool. yes i like to sweat.

all this is good info, if ok with you all, I'm gonna post all the above in the first post

Oops I didn't do good market research unfortunately. However, it does seems to me that most companies are posting 35-37 for Premium X and honestly I can't find any other private seller for Bezza on Mudah or Carlist. Anyway I'm bringing my price down to 38 and see how. Thanks tho.

No not buying new Myvi.
