Is it okay to change gear (D/S/L) while pressing the accelerator? How about the steermatic?

- cant comment on the wind noise tho coz b4 this i was driving daily a charade espree > kancil > kelisa, then city... when i drove the ct for the 1st time i was like.. omg.. so quiet one... but yea, when u reach abt 120 i hear heavy wind noise, but at 90.. hmm.. maybe its not air.. maybe your tyre bearings are out..?

-i presume ure kelisa is also auto? imho.. its because of the weight of the CT compared to the kelisa, weight to engine ratio maybe smaller for the kelisa to the CT.. thats why motorbikes zoom faster at traffic lites also rite? anyways there is a way where you can out-accelerate your city way past even a manual car at a stop go situation (i.e traffic lites etc).  when your at a full stop, go in s-mode, then turn on the 7-speed and shift down to put in manual mode, i.e gear 1. after trafic lite is green, push the pedal until acc to 5.5kRPMS and disengage 7speed mode to enter S-mode. the high rev of the 1st gear will get you moving real fast. Take note that you must disengage the 7speed before it reaches the redline at 5.8kRPMs, if u dont the 1st gear will go in to 2nd and you loose momentum. If you do it right, you will maintain the 5kRPM, and you feel a boost like nos (tongue.gif).. seriously ive tried it plenty of times.. and its damn great  thumbup.gif

-This one i have to agree.. the door seems a little rough.. you need quite some force to shut it..  the proton neo has a nice door closing feeling.. far better than the CT.

start from 90 km/h you can listen to the wind noise edi. not loud, but very soft noise.
the engine is quite, this is damn good.
but the wind noise is very significant once above 100km/h

yes, the kelisa is an auto. i can feel the power once i step on the accelerator.
for city, have to change to S in order to feel the ommphhh
i don't really play with the gear, i bought mine 2nd hand. warranty until next year Feb.
gearbox rosak then i can sell the car edi shakehead.gif
so, have to be gentle with it and not simply abuse it if not provoked

lol.. first car is the problematic toyota corolla.. after sell that toyota, then bought iswara. iswara had serve me well for 13 years. then buy kelisa, then sell iswara for city thumbup.gif

U be careful dude.. i only try the 'stop-go' boost when the road is clear (i.e no imminent traffic ahead). the CT WILL REALLY accelerate very fast if you use the method i told b4. Be safe ok! tongue.gif

try it out at laaate night after u come back frm mapley brows.gif

Ya.. me too, I own a 2nd hand CT also.. warranty just kaput this month sweat.gif..

ive read in a few performance forums regarding whether the CVT kong if use this method.. actually its quite safe, the only drawback is on the engine only.. higher FC.. ure not straining the g/box that much, as youre just making the engine rev higher to achieve better torque. but I also dun use this that much.. just when i want to outrun those pesky revving evo-rally-high rear-big tyre- Proton Wiras at night thumbup.gif

Go ahead dude, Try.. thumbup.gif but for the 1st time b4 you get used to the technique, better do it on empty roads ok? safety first icon_idea.gif really shiioookk wooo! brows.gif

But better practice 1st, coz quite hard to prcisely release the 7speed at 5.5K RPM as you hv to keep youre eye on the road and also your meter at the same time... sweat.gif

soo sorry, wrong words.. mapley = mamak stall lorr.. smile.gif

Mine is of idsi wooorr... icon_rolleyes.gif

i think the vtec accel a bit slower coz the i-dsi engine has max torque at low RPM (2.7K RPM?).. so it accelerates a little faster, but lacks top speed like the vtec.... when the vtec hits 100++km/h youre in another dimension cool2.gif

YES! I hate those 'tonggek' cars very much shakehead.gif

BUT NO.. i dont hate proton.. In fact, i like the Neo very much.. Not to brag but FYI, I designed the testing system/procedure for the Neo's ABS and braking system and I made occasional trips to their factory in Tjg Malim to reprogram the Neo's ABS back when I was working for a proton OEM vendor.. its Proton's QC 'tak-kesah' attitude i despise..

I think it means that at high speed, the engine let more air to go in, so it have sudden boost in power and you feel the engine like kicking. biggrin.gif

My city still face the jerking problem.

I sent it to Honda SC a few weeks ago and they wired the car to a laptop and configure the engine settings. This was when i told them my car RPM goes up and down even when i didn't move the accelerator pedal.

Note that this only happens if i try to accelerate, like from 60 to 120 - so i simply step once and leave it - but the RPM kept going up and down like mad like jerking the car - felt no power.

So they tuned the engine.. after that i felt much better driving on D mode. S mode is ok as well, but i still feel underpowered.

A few days later i tried going to high speed, cruising at 110km/h and shifted to S gear and floored (just to test) and it was jerking AGAIN!

It's so noticable when i shifted to S gear, and more noticable if i shift to S and turn on the 7 speed mode.

What the *tut* is wrong with my Honda.

I'm going to send this baby again to SC after next month salary. Cheh!

However, FC drops now, before if i fill RM70 can onli run up to 380km. Now RM50 can go near to 400km thumbup.gif

at least i can save money there. But i dont dare to step on it anymore, later rosak more money liaw sad.gif
