Hi guise, I just got my 1.3 manual. Is it a new trend to hold the clutch to start your car?

My dad afraid to drive the car now because he can't adapt to the startup sequence and failed few times. 😂

I believe (or hope) it's currently inaccurate, it show 5.5km/l. Car is still new and i do not use it as daily commute yet.

Want to ask, does your engine sometime make knocking noise when idling?

I thought for auto you need to drive below 90km/h untill first service check?

How much tinted cost you guys? Any recommended brand that doesn't hurt your pocket?

That's what i read from the text book they gave you. lol
Manual can go 110km/h on 5th gear.. basically don't exceed 3.5k RPM i think.

He just trying to explain why you need to break in the engine bro, like shown in that video even high performance car need some engine break in. Your sample size of 2 is not enough to apply to millions of new car produced every years.

The speed limit and mileage need for the break in is probably over exaggerated by car manufacturers though.

Anyone use OBD2 Scantool on Iriz or any other Proton car?

May i ask whats working and whats not?

Guys, does handling characteristic between Saga and Iriz similar? Any of you guys have the chance to drive both?

Tall? Yes. Floaty, i don't feel that for this car and i loathe that floatiness on old Myvi.

One thing i'm not fond of with the car is the gear ratio, gap between 4th & 5th is too high for my liking.

Hmm.. maybe because i'm the one driving this time so i don't really feel it?
On old Myvi i could even get a headache because of the bounciness.

::edit::
just calculated FC from my filled up last week.
RM30 for 190+km which is about 13km/l which is a little bit disappointed because my 1.6 waja campro did 240km+ for RM40 which is just over 12km/l.
Dashboard still show 5-6 km/l. I wonder if i should have SC check the calibration..

You're right, i'm blind.
No wonder the number decreased when i drive slower and steady, i was thinking this meter is fuq'ed

In busy city with lots of traffic lights?
I was hoping to get 15km/L as well. lol

I get 310km for RM40 i filled last week. That's about 16km/l.
Meter show 5.3l/100km so still not accurate. Not gonna trust the meter anymore.

Interesting.. is it possible to record this tikus sound? Sometime i don't know i had this kinda problem until other people point it out.

Just over 80km/h to be exact. Lol
I'm not driving on highway anyway.

Small kampung road man, 80+km/h is plenty fast.


I say that was my best case scenario. Minimal road traffics for the whole week and chill driving with steady feet.
I live in kampung near small town with low traffic so you guys can't really compare yours with mine.

Thanks for the video. Sound like some metal grinding.. is it the bushings?

Slightly lower if not similar to my 1.3l manual.

Really? I thought that's quite normal.

Bought the same model and color, i share similar pros and cons as yours except my problem with gear placement is shifting to 1st gear is quite far and sometimes i missed it.
I'm happy with the purchase as well.

I can't find any button to close it as well, maybe it's not possible.

Wear should be minimal if you fully disengage the clutch, many people love to partially disengage it especially at traffic light or hill stop which is a no no.

Quite easy to heel and toe even with stock pedal imo. I feel like Senna every time i did that.

I created an accurate torque/curve graph after driving Iriz 1.3 MT for almost 2 months.

lol

Just kidding bro, that's what i felt when driving the car light footed. Not sure if Eco mode is just an indicator of you driving light footed or there is something going on under the hood.

Sorry. I actually tried to find the torque curve graph online but none available.

Yeah i got read about that, i was just wondering because the moment that eco light went away i can feel more power surging thru.


Just wondering because power delivery is pretty sluggish when that light is on compare to other car that i've driven. Maybe i should check my ECU?
