Yeah don't hope much for second hand value...

Can tapau 1.5... seriously, wira city all can play... but lose to satria T.T straight road or corner also lose... sad

The dashboard tak tak sound i have it too... i wonder what's tht... really annoying...

I always cheat 1, from traffic light... try to count the traffic light and know your turn... then slowly release your clutch fully... the car will move a little... once green just floor it!!! very nice~~ haha...

This car 5th gear very nice... in normal traffic I always use 5th gear oni... if hardcore races... thn oni will play with gear... always upshift at 5k rpm... dun dare to reach redline... scared blow engine

Myvi OD button is so that the gear change won't exceed 3rd gear... if u're driving manual... try to redline ur gears.. thn u can win myvi d... But I still think myvi feels lighter... my bro has a myvi... and he always use 2nd on standstill... really enuff torque~

Yeah max power rpm 5.5k... shifting at 6200 shud be just nice

Amt pickup slow abit... but i think if myvi auto... can play...

Cornering, cars will understeer or oversteer... It's really hard to overturn a car... and savvy has a small head with wide body... I think he hit something before overturning the car thou~

Yeah and i think it's easier to overturn a myvi, viva, kenari than savvy and kelisa... I mean, among these small hatches... but the most important thing is, do not do a high speed cornering when u're not familiar with the road and the traction level is very low (sloppy areas and raining)

Yeah... cause you're aggressive enough to step on the accelerator while cornering, pressing the rear to the road... so, it's kinda of hard to oversteer... but too much acceleration will cause front to lose grip causing understeer... so, better be careful not to overspeed which cause u to lift off too much or brake, and u will cause the car's weight to bounce to the front, causing overtseer...

Anyway, it's always good to take nice lines and maintain the balance of the car through corners

D4ft sounds good! But isn't there any 'bolt on turbo' kinda things for savvy? Not much performance mod can be done on Savvy, is it true?

Why not Savvy V6, copy of clio V6 hehehe...

I'm actually hoping for a 1.5 liter engine for Savvy ... But, I think the engine bay is too small for something like that...

sad lar... from 150 to 305... more than double...

That 'Starlet powered Savvy' is really cool!

Welcome to the club!
amt or mt? new car or 2nd hand?
What do u mean twin center exhaust?

indeed Savvy is really stable on the road at high speed... I did 150kmh and nothing vibrate.. it just feels like 120kmh except the engine sound and wind sound... Anyway I'm really interested on how it goes on mountain roads... with a good chasis, this should be fun!

Wow... 2k? damaged something inside the hood?

Seriously? damn sad la like tht...
But, like proton wira's mitsu engine, tiara's citroen engine... still proton's mah... can?

owh... nice 1... u bought it from mudah.com?

are you sure you're using mineral? if u're still going to proton sc, u should be using semi syn... did u request for mineral oil when u service?

oh no... just know that mach 5 is mineral oil...
But when i service i comfirm semi syn, and the winscreen sticker also written syntium 800...
Don't tell me.. i got cheated by proton sc~~

Rs auto is very good... renautech also very good...

Not sure also...
Before service, at the counter, he actually told me this is semi synthetic, after service i got the receipt it's written there mach 5... and now i checked that mach 5 is actually mineral oil...

I think that guy don't even know that mach 5 is mineral oil...

Luckily now my car's mileage is 5900++ ... gonna book a service soon!
Engine is so noisy now...


Found this,
5. What are the new PETRONAS API SM lubricants?

PETRONAS markets six grades of lubricants which exceed all existing car engine oil requirements, namely,

6. What are the main differences between PETRONAS Syntium 1000, PETRONAS Syntium 800 and PETRONAS Mach 5 API SM standard?

The three main differences are:

1. PETRONAS Syntium 1000 15W-50 is developed using fully synthetic base oils
2. PETRONAS Syntium 800 15W-50 is developed using special blend of synthetic oils and mineral oils.

Yeah!... I actually saw a blogger bringing Savvy to various mountain roads in Malaysia... Really wanna do wat she does~
Lack of potential, u mean handling or power?
What I think is, too much body roll, and not enough power...
Which means UR bars, and open pod air filter + straight flow exhaust = MONEY

I think if u're using mach 5, better service every 5k... using syntium 800 then can service every 10k

Haha!! Yeah.. i agree about the easy to 'cilok'.. short car, and pillars are not too wide like myvi...
