Miss those time when petrol is 1.92 per litre..

Went for my 1st service on last Friday.
Reached Mutiara Damansara at 8.30am- walk in...told me fully booked..come next morning at 6.30 am..crazy...
Then realised CPS thread got something bout new SC in DJ. Drop in to starbuck at curve.Start up WIFI via laptop (I am a Software Engineer btw..laptop like my second ehem). Go back to CPS V1 thread..found it.Drive there (DJ Petronas Station). I am 1st customer
Good Service! Nice mechanic, chatted alot but the car. He suggested want more power he will increase my idle enginee *something* to 900 instead of default 850.
But FC also tinggi la.
Get to see what ever he doing to my car.
Everything done less than 1 hour
RM 100.69 - change engine oil, windscreen washer, oil filter

Then,steer to Atria - send my baby to polish with sealant. RM 128.
Now..every morning i smile when i see my car shining. Even mom and gf are impressed.

Bro,..seems that we got same experience..hehe.i too went to SC at M Dmnsara on tuesday last week only to found that need to book 1st to make service..huhu..cannot just 'Terjah' like that..hehe.
finally i go to SC at Batu Caves on wednesday morning..good service also i think, service finished within 2 hours...although in waiting queue that morning already 20 cars...

Err, I thought the new smartag system( or gantry) can detect car speed up to 180km/h. read in newspaper.0

Yup, at Mutiara Damansara SC, you need to book atleast 3 days before you send the car.

Supposed to detect up to 180km/h as the detection range is further. But who will be brave enough to go through the narrow uneven toll lane at 180km/h

You can try, bro. coz we all know cps can speed to 185km/h.

the other day i was at proton carnival day... i asked the engineer whats the campro cps higher profile cams duration and lift...

he said, "the lift is higher.... the duration.... erm... err.... wait a minute..."

den he vanished into the crowd...

what if u pass the toll at 185kmh??... i dun need to pay toll??...

hahahhaa, a special skill "demonstrated" by the engineer
Yesterday, at cps site, the engineer show me how does the cps work, the low lift and high lift. got picture but still couldn't upload

at that speed, the system cannot detect your car anymore. So, either no deduction made from the "smarttag" or you end crashed after the toll

Maybe the engineer cannot reveal that because its a trade secret.

Please don't speed at toll booth. One of my friend crack his rims because the metal drain cover at the lane are stolen.

Yup, dangerous to speed at that location. becoz anything can happen, if you know what I mean.
BTW, yesterday, I also saw a twin exhaust campro 1.6e( I think waja 2007, not cps).

Isn't previous Waja Campro uses single tip exhaust. The only dual tip Waja is the 1.8x.

Yes, i know that. But that car has twin exhaust. Actually, there are quite many "special" waja that you can see at proton tech week. Maybe most people miss it becoz all looks the same if not carefully examined the car.

One of it is the same as the prototype waja cps version(the one with navigation system and 16 inch rim). waja logo also the coloured one, not the chrome.

The FC starts to go down from the 5k service onwards... mine is around RM0.22/km for 50%city 50% highway
100% highway can go RM0.19 maybe.... or even less... not tried yet after 5k service

Too many Waja Ver. already..

Your FC is really good.

normal lah.... a little bit facelift, they launch it as a new car....

sounds good, where is this place?

Very good FC, bro

Damansara Jaya 2 Petronas Station.
Erm..On the LDP to Kelana Jaya.Take the left lane until you see a board sign to Damansara Jaya (its a U-turn)
Make the U-turn. You will see the Petronas station after BHP.
Its somewhere around Atria but not the petronas station near KDU

my latest FC... RM0.23cents/km~!! ho ho ho
60% highway 40% city drive.. total travel 541.5km - rm126, 46L... so i guess i still got 14L left in the tank (waja tank 60L)... which can even go further~! but don dare la.. light already showing for few KMs d

*my car still waiting for 5k service~!! means i only did my 1st service~!

I'm frequent highway user, currently my FC is at 5.8 L/100km

it is about 0.058 per km, and convert it to current petrol price ~ my FC is at RM 0.1566 per km..

p/s: actually i have a tip how to save fuel, i don't know it is true or not but actually proven on my cps.

- make sure your tank always full. if u drive around with half full or almost empty, fuel inside your tank will form into gas. (shaking around).
- so, this gas will leak through your fuel tank cap (if the pressure high enough). you'll lost your fuel for nothing.
- make sure your tank always full, no chance for fuel to shake around.

for current price, i only use RM 20 per 115km or 120km...try my tips..it is worth it...
