This is surprising that we don't see more of this model on the road. Looks good, handles good, adequate power, plenty of torque, very good mileage . Great reviews from many reviewers. Maybe a tad more pricy than other B-segments. So, why don't we see more of this on the road? Surely it's not just the turbo? babisotong liked this post

QUOTE(DS51 @ Mar 15 2023, 12:05 PM) definitely pricy and safety goodies lost to perodua which got way lower price. so pay more for less?. thats explain few nissan almera on the road. That's comparing foreign cars with local cars. It's a value-for-money comparison which is valid by itself.But that's not what I was referring to. A more appropriate comparison is with the Vios and City and Mazda. |

QUOTE(SleeplessEyes @ Mar 15 2023, 07:37 PM) Nope. Applies to all cars. I have owned a turbo car before. There are some precautions you need to take. But that was sometime ago.My standard of practice i) Idle the engine for 30 seconds (roughly) before putting into gear - Let the lubricant circulate properly even though I know its on 0W or 5W viscosity and it should be seconds . ii) Then start driving. Engine oil temperature takes longer to warm up compared to your water temperature. - I have the habit of not turning on the aircond until the water temperature reaches minimum 50C ; This is so that it doesn't place extra load during cold engine, and your radiator fan will cool it down, making it warm up slower. - For cars without Celcius or OBD, its either the Blue light goes off or 2 bars (for my Proton) which indicates around 50C has passed. iii) Drive gently first if possible. Not asking you to drive like a granny and hog the road. GO easy on the throttle. - Even in F1, they heat up the engine block (without engine running) first before start of the race. Technology has improved. I don't believe what you are doing is necessary anymore. |

QUOTE If the engine has been operating at high rpm for an extended period of time, let it idle for a few minutes prior to turn off. Nothing too specific from the Almera manual. |
