So thts confirm that, persona alarm is like that? anyone have any idea how to adjust or need to tell sc is it?

Ya but mostly I will use my phone to take a picture when i park at the place that I not familiar and is easy to find back which floor I park.

Wow u all pump up till 190 or 210kpa only ar?? I pump up till 280kpa and only feel the car is normal. Because the 1st time I pump 260kpa and the result is, the air didnt goes in and it keep coming out..... so I increase it until 280kpa and it only can pump in....

Last time I pump my kelisa also use 260kap

initially i actually try to follow the 210/190 pressure. but i find the tyre look a bit flat. So i added 10kpa each.
i don't really dare to pump much higher cause i'm afraid it explode like what we see in the cartoon.

so anyone pls advise wht is the standard pressure for persona cars.... its follows the standard given by proton in order to maintain fuel efficiency and performances too.....

overinflated can make ur car improve fc, the standard is nvr been following by most ppl... try go to tyre shop, most of them will pump more than recommended... the standard i think is the min it takes to move ur car wth if using recommended, my car seems like not enuff air

agree.... if follow the standard seem like not enuf air to move my car.... like pulling a cow to move foward

ok fine.. another thing i need to ask u guys... my fc drop to 9.0 from 10.3. havent service yet.... now only 330km..... whats usual fc before service???

fc depends on ur golden leg bro... basically, after ur 2nd n 3rd service, then u can c there is improvement in ur fc

btw, if u alwaz on city driving, ur fc will b hi, its normal...

mine after 4th service, the fc is between 7.0 to 8.0, good enuff for me as an auto user

ya....campro love high rev...
u feet step abit...3k adi...abit more 4k adi..
but for my opinion...since the SC told me 3.5k is wher power comes...
but what i have found out is...ur 3rd gear around 4.5k is very powerful adi..
5.5k-7k is just wasting ur petrol and sound pollution..
unless u have change ur exhaust system...the sound sure Powderful..."Power+wonderful.." HOHOHO

well if urs r manual, u can say like tht..

us, auto users, juz hav to drive where the tranny leads us

can lah~
swift ur gear into 2nd lo

i knew u can do that

aww, tht thing were not meant to do like tht ler

i rather stay at d then using tht 'l','2','3' thing...

the gearbox is freaking exp u know

i got questions.. maybe repeated question. lazy to find back.

i want to use fully-synthetic oil. maybe bardahl one..

1. can we bring our own engine oil? SC accept or not?
2. 1st(1000km), 2nd(5000km) and 3rd(10,000km) services are close. isit worth if i use all fully-synthetic oil?
3. Do i need to do 15,000km for the 4th service? or i just follow the recommended one, 20,000km for 4th service(major)?
4. normal or not after turn off the engine, got sound like heavy machinery is turn off.. dunno how to describe.

thanks!

my 1st service i use fully-synthetic oil. It is recommended by the SC. He said it will make ur engine feel lighter n better fc.
He oso said that i don't need to change oil during the 5000km service cause fully-synthetic oil is for 10,000km.

So can u feel that ur engine is lighter after u change full synthetic oil?

means that for 2nd service no need to change engine oil? if so, that's great! but i dun want to buy the engine oil from SC.. better i buy from outside n bring there.. cheaper. but SC accept or not?

Frankly, i'm not sure.
What i can tell is RM179

Wow very expensive..... I prefer use semi synthetic, becoz after 5000k still need to change the oil filter and etc.... no matter u use full synth of semi synth.

1. u can bring ur own engine oil, SC can accept. But be sure u bring an engine oil which is suitable for Persona as too thin de engine oil don suite Persona
2. not sure, i only start use fully syn at 10K service, but can feel the dif
3. i do service my car at 15K, but i din change engine oil, just change oil filter, balancing, alignment n normal checking
4. it is normal, should be air con compressor. u can try, if din on the air con, the sound won be so loud

p/s: fully syn engine oil can last for 10K, but semi syn engine oil is recommended to change at every 5K

i think i'll use Bardahl Fully Synthetic 5w-40 engine oil. isit suitable for persona..not too thin?

so at 1st service u change semi-synthetic oil. 2nd service also semi-synthetic. 3rd one u change to fully synthetic eh?

i want to use fully synthetic becoz want to service every 10k just like recommended by proton.
