Yeah, seems a lot of Iriz has this issue. There are steps to fix this DIY, but a bit difficult, since it involves removing the steering air bag.

Most probably ball joint or steering bush worn.

Never really hear stories of modified Iriz with turbo.

Only know this guy: https://careta.my/article/nampak-mudah-tapi...on-turbo-beliau

and he says it's difficult

It should be very similar to this except for orientation:



Basically, unscrew the cap, and remove the bulb. Remember to "wiggle" it out.

Don't think so, since you're just changing the bulbs and not re-wiring anything.

Proton will say void warranty because flew away... no evidence. LOL

For my friend's saga (2011), he just bought it from shopee, and put it himself. need double sided, I think

The main things about rims is whether:
1) the rim width can support the tyre width, I think Iriz is 6.5jj, which means it can support Min 185 ; Ideal 195 or 205 ; Max 215. Let's say u upgrade to 7jj, so Min 195 ; Ideal 205 or 215 ; Max 225,
2) the offset (ET), Iriz is ET46, please stick to this. Increasing will cause the tyre to protrude out of the car and it will impact performance at higher speeds + it looks hideous. ET43 should be fine - 3mm closer to the suspension should be okay, I guess.
Other than that, the tyre height should be okay, usually the shops reduce 10% height per diameter inch increase.

Here's a basic guide, but you need to measure the fender clearances, etc. (https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?wheel1=185-55-15X6.5ET46&wheel2=205-45-16X7ET43&fcl=50mm&wcl=30mm&scl=50mm&sr=0mm) or you could just go to the shop and test it out.

For suspension, I think adjustable coilovers like GAB would be easier.

Michelin PS3 is a really good tyre. I know a lot people recommend them for the grip/performance.

As for the coilovers, I can't say much since I never used them personally; one of my friends is using GAB and he's happy with it, but for me it's a bit "hard". I'm stuck in jam >80% of the time anyway lol

I go to Pesona Mahir SC (Cheras area) for servicing, and beside them is this mod shop called "Speed Mod Motorsport" - try checking them out.

jVIPERs2 I think knows more

Sharing experience on changing to the spare tyre:

After successfully removing the nut covers, loosening the nuts, jacking up the car, removing the tyre (some large screw penetrated my rear-left tyre), and changing to the spare tyre - the ESC (failure), EPS and handbrake light will turn on causing the Iriz to feel like it has standard power steering.

Next morning, went to the tyre shop to tampal (RM6), and put back the original tyre. EPS light goes off, but ECS and Handbrake light still continues - foreman said "just drive, will go off". Since I don't trust any mechanic foreman, I decided to call Proton SC and they said "no, you have it bring it over to us to reset - free within warranty period". Usually vehicle workshops will charge RM30 - RM50 just to plug in the device to your ECU for reset. So, I went back to Proton, did a reset, and everything was fine.

So, basically, if you ever change to the spare tyre, just remember that the lights are normal, and have to reset for the ECS to work again lol

Side note: my car's gear knob centre light is blinking like some kind of disco - Proton SC told me that the part number for that particular light has changed, meaning that they have identified that the previous light was faulty. I'll be changing mine when their stock arrives.

More sharing experience:

Took a trip on Thursday to Camerons, traffic jam like crazy, >3 hours from KL to Tapah; the Iriz displayed this:



Reached heritage hotel or something, but the next morning, car's gear knob got stuck (couldn't from P to R,etc.) - problem is I accidentally left the car's manual at home (I removed the box I normally keep my stuff in for extra boot space). So, since holiday, called SA to give me a number of any Proton tech, she gave one number but the person never picked up (or bothered to call back). So, I decided try a few things (e.g., pressing the release button on the gear knob console, etc.).

What worked was lock/unlocking the car a few times with the key's buttons. Suddenly the gear could move again. Weird, but after that no issues.

you can push it back out for the time being.

I know in sri serdang area got quite a few ketuk shops, quality not bad.

Anybody knows if "Proton Body & Paint" only does insurance claims?

Yeah, if you go to authorized centre, they will suggest to replace the bumper. This happened to my boss' Subaru Forester - some Myvi hit the back of the car, and the bumper cracked open. ~RM4k for replacement + respray at Subaru.

Honestly, it's hard to recommend shops because it might be good when I went, but it might suddenly be bad when you go. Here's the one in Sri Serdang with good Google Reviews: "Empire M Auto Spray and Body Work"

Even authorized workshop does this

The shop will only touch up that area or re-spray whole bumper?

U followed the 60k CVT oil service?

I know some guys who do at 30k because they use the car a lot like u

High FC during first 1000km, moderate up to 3rd service. After the 3rd service, car seems to have better FC. Haven't officially calculated.

Used to get 380KM = 34L; 70% traffic (stop/go)

RON rating does not correlate with effectiveness of carbon cleaning. As what ayamxxx stated, that depends on the additives that are added to the fuel. It so happens that RON97 have more/better additives added resulting in a better engine upkeep. However, with today's standard of RON95, such as from Caltex, even RON95 has quality additives added. If you want to do carbon cleaning, from time to time, just press the accelerator (ramp up the RPM) for effective carbon cleaning.

As for difference in RON95 and RON97 on engine performance for a Campro CPS engine - it's too slight to tell. Maybe need to test with different brands of fuel, e.g., Shell RON95 vs RON97, Petronas RON95 vs RON97. As for Caltex, slight difference when accelerating from stop.

try RON 95 from Shell and report again.

could be a case of bad fuel - I've poured Petronas once, and the car's engine became "jerky" like it was knocking. I have honestly no idea why this happens.

Ah, warranty claims... the worst hassle ever.

But glad they changed their mind... maybe ur SA said this guy active in LYN Forum, better jaga. lol

Claim warranty?

Try put Ron97, floor the accelerator, until 160km/h

If not, most probably needs a tune

I don't wanna say GB might have issues
