Need advise from ayamxxx because expert in ISO, what is Iriz ISO windscreen?

Any recommendation shop for these 3 issue in area Sentul/KL/Selayang? - Is it can be same shop or

Windscreen - car mirror shop
Left Side Mirror & Fog Lamp - car accessories shop?

for windscreen, I send all my cars for windscreen replacement under insurance at Jalan Klang Lama. I suggest u claim the windscreen under windscreen coverage (not effect NCD). The rest, Side Mirror, Fog Lamp (both I prefer buy pair), buy from shopee and send to any workshop for installation.

i usually buy side mirror parts from TS Pro Auto on shopee/lazada.

bought few times before for various missing side mirror parts..

yours the mirror seems intact, just that the bracket broken.. maybe can just change bracket enough instead of changing whole side mirror

After 6 months of using the Iriz, here are my top 3 complaints. These are just personal picks. I previously drive local Proton and Perodua cars, so it's safe to say that the comparisons are based on cars of the same price range. Don't get me wrong, it's still one of the best cars for the price, but some gripes makes me questions the design team.

Wipers are annoying AF. If you set to normal continuous wipe, it tries to be intelligent by increasing the interval when your car is stopped. I get it. The design team wants to be cool with wiper preservation methods. It made me wonder if they ever tested this method while it's raining during traffic jam. Can only see the glowing tail lights of the car infront. And don't get me started when you wanna cross a t-junction during rain. Maybe there's a button to disable it, I didn't explore.

Second would be the central lock. The most dangerous design flaw. And I did check with Proton, it was designed that way. In normal central lock situations, backseat passengers cannot open the doors once the central lock kicks in. For Iriz, if the passenger pulled the handle once, central lock for that door is released. Pull it again and it opens. They say it's for emergency. Last week, my child was able to open the door twice. Maybe they design it as solely central lock in mind, not safety lock.

Ok, let's get into something common. Fuel consumption. They marketed VVT as fuel efficient. The lowest I've clocked is 4.3L/100km. Not bad. However, this is only possible at 3:00am. During rush hour, expect an average of 8L/100km. I'm staying in the old parts of Cheras, can say the Iriz is not built for that area. Old Cheras areas consist of slopes, humps and jam. I did clocked 11L/100km before. VVT engines are a torture during traffic jam and slopes.

Yours is 1.3L or 1.6L? my biggest complaint was the range (I usually put range as my standard view at the speedometer), and once the range left 70km, it would miss and blink. This thing piss me off more cz I know when to refuel at which station, and other manufacturers don't even put this as standard. For example Honda can even put its range till 0km, same goes to X70, X50.

Related to FC, the 1.6L engine, thanks to less efficient Campro, Im getting an average of 11km/l or 9L+/100km, this with my eco pattern drive, city + highway, Kajang-KL-Kajang. 11km/l. While my other car with the routes and tried to drive a similar pattern, getting 13km/l but that car is a 2.4L engine.

Ask buddies, all said welcome to the Campro engine for FC. They own Campro CPS, which are even higher fuel consumption at city drive

i drive persona (mostly same car as iriz anyways) i feel all your pain.

another thing i find annoying is when the car is running and you close the door to, god forbid i throw something or go adjust my child's seats, the car will horn loudly 4 times. if you hear 4 loud beeps in a shopping mall parking, thats probably me trying to adjust my child seats. laugh.gif

and this car's fuel consumption is just funny to me. i drive city 90% of the time, short distances so i expected horrible mileage. but i drive other cars same distances, same pattern. this car only getting slightly better (like 2km/l better) economy than my aging leaking camry 2.4.

the funniest thing about this car is the meter. i calculate my economy manually via odo and dividing the fuel. the meter keeps saying im getting 15-20kml, when it's nowhere near that. confused.gif

but oh well. its a car. gonna use it till it dies or if i strike gold and can afford something better.

I drove an old oil burning 2.4l camry for years before getting a new iriz this year. Iriz is just slightly more fuel efficient in city drive. I dont think it can come close to my old camry if I want to drive long distance. The fuel consumption meter is a joke. Yesterday it showed 19km/l (yes, i avoid traffic jam at all cost and drive like a snail), turned out to be 13km/l after doing manual calculation. Gosh, I missed my camry so much cry.gif

Another thing is the punch cvt, I am still trying to get used to it. 1 thing I enjoy in this car is its handling which managed to put smile on my face multiple times. 50k only, I cannot complain much la.

The mechanical tech probably would be about the same era... Rmb Campro started late 90s... Safety and body build would be a bit better than the Camry I would think

Think of it more of an AMT box...lift, wait a sec then only accelerate...that should give enough time for the clutch to engage and when accelerate, just keep the rpm at about 2k...any higher and it's just fuel burned making noise, not any faster...

yeah engine tech is 90s + vvt

safety in terms of airbags and modern crumple zones yes and with vsc huge plus
but body build id doubt that

What I do normally is to gently tap on the accelerator after I let go of my brake for 1 second. RPM will then raise to above 1k and stay there which allow me to accelerate the moment I step on accelerator again. But it does not work all the time however. I am extremely stressful when I am the first car at the traffic light😵

Old tech engine with cast iron for engine block, vs rival all using aluminum alloy for greater weight. Plus outdated VVT tech, and not understand for CVT Punch brand but RPM at 110kmh is similar as using 4 gear auto. All not helping for FC

Salam..nak tanya

Untuk Iriz 1.6 model 2014, apa part number original untuk absorber depan dengan belakang?

Dua tahun lepas saya ganti semua original tapi part number dia PW924159 (depan kiri), PW924160 (depan kanan) dengan PW924165 (belakang). Dekat resit tulis untuk Persona VVT.

Dari hari pertama ride quality memang hilang terus, terlalu harsh, keras dan melantun. Bila pomen check, absorber punya travel sikit sangat. Walaupun takde load (orang duduk), absorber tu dah sangat rapat dengan bump stop / stopper.

Pomen tu adjust potong bump stop baru kereta jadi selesa dan ride quality ada balik. Dia kata ada beza antara part number walaupun absorber untuk kereta yang sama. Dua tahun merana bawak kereta macam takde absorber 😅
