Wah lucky you....
My manual skill is deteriorating by days.... have to get an Evora before I completely become AT overlord.  hmm.gif

By the way, recently I notice new *thing*... when driving up to 140km (or faster)... pressing or letting go the gas pedal will result a clicking sound coming from the console panel (aircond or clarion?)... Has anyone experience this?
*
Clicking sound is when the RPM meter move pass the 3.8k (either when going up and down).

You're lucky because at the sensor there is the metal beam that hold the bumper. So its harder there. thumbup.gif But if he hit you at the bumper edge doh.gif

QUOTE(tebuan @ Aug 13 2008, 02:58 PM)
if i am not mistaken that is VIM mechanism, changing the path way from long to short way. VIM are electronically activated compared to AIFM which vacumm activated. I think it cool to have vim sound activate after 3800 rpm...vrooom..more power to go.
No need to find out, that VIM for sure. Nothing to worry about.
*
Cannot be the VIM as it switch at 4.8k rpm. The sound most probably the CPS activating. But they should be more crative like put an LED indicator at the meter cluster to show when CPS is activated, or better still, make the whole meter panel change from white to red. brows.gif

Believe so, putting CPS into Persona will "accidentally" kill off Waja. Proton have to seggerate their models so that it doesn't overlap each other.
*
Well, they can opt to virtually killed Waja by putting the CPS inside Persona to boost sales as Waja is already an old model.

if anyone else is still having the whistling wind noise when cruising more than 100km/h (after attempting all other possible solutions) then your problem would probably due to a poorly fitted component. What component? It is the one controlling air circulation for air-cond.

Try driving up to the point when you start listening the whistling wind noise (drive full throttle would be even better) and then switch off the internal air circulation (meaning you are now allowing outside air to get in your car). The wind noise disappear immediately. I noticed this when driving home from melaka early this morning (4 am)... and after switching it off, I drove 170km/h without the irritating whistling or howling wind noise)

For those who are having weird smell problem when they switch on their air-cond i think it is because of the same component.

I'll ask SC to fix this next week.  rclxms.gif
*
Better as k the SC to permanently close the 'hatch'. My previous ride done that and the aircond becomes much cooler and no smell comes in from the outside. thumbup.gif

Guys, believe the Campro is on the EMS700 ECU, any idea if it is OBD II standard ?

Been reading around on OBD II scan guages, cool tool to have, but not sure if it is compatible with our ECU.

How to know? Maybe can ask those SC guy. hmm.gif

i went for first 1k service at last friday and really pissed.

i call i-care and booked so i went to cheras tmn connaught behind for first service apparently i had to wait so fine after an hour wait and someone called my car number and after that say do not have any of my records and ask me provide something"warranty or others" i told them i dont have and i only had the purchase receipt and after give to him, he say " oh you from eon, you cant service here, you must go back your service centre" so i told him but how come when i call your i-care they never mention that to me? and my SA inform me that we can service anywhere? and he say "no" to me, so i went out and called my SA and tell him about it, after a while he call me back and telling me go for others service centre -.-"

i just feel really funny when we all using same brand car but just different dealer and how can a service centre not accepting it?. how would malaysia could improve if they always think like that? oh you not from edar so i dont give a damn.

now i had to go all the way to chan sow lin service centre as previously i already let the SA know about i dont want this problem but end up it still having this idiot problem -.-".

as mention by the eon technician uncle that a long long story about eon and edar problem and proton is going to take back the dealership of eon so why edar not accepting any car now if proton really going to take back the dealership?.
*
Let say you bought Honda cars from a grey importers and send it to Handa Malaysia SC for free service. Do you think that they gonna entertain you? When EON bought cars from Proton , they got it cheaper because its exclude all the warranty and service package. Unless they can come up with a solution that benefit both Proton and EON, I think that a merger is quite impossible.

So it mean that I cannot service my car at eon SC? I bought my car from authorized proton dealer hmm.gif  The Seksyen 13 sc, that one is eon or proton edar?
*
Not very sure about normal service, but for warranty claim, usually they will send you to SC where you bought the car. Especially if there is one nearby. I saw this happen myself when I claim warranty for my broken windows. There is one uncle being ask to go to nearby EON SC by the PE SC for warranty claim.

yoyo
finally got my waja cps  rclxm9.gif
can add me 2 the list?
CrisisX - (HT) - Twilight Blue (MT) - 8362 - on 18th August 2008

very satisfied with the car
nice interior, very comfortable
enjoy hearing the "click" sound everytime reach 3.8k rpm  rclxms.gif
can easily reach 150kmph
and i think the handling is very nice, definetely wont better than vios or city

my only disapointment is the bad "noise protection" (forgot the proper term)
i can accept the engine sound, but i the wind sound (when cruising over 120kmph) is very annoying
is this only happening on my car, or other CPS as well?
anyway to reduce the sound? (except from turning the music louder = =)
*
nothing much can be done bout the wind noise. Maybe can try to check the rubber, window and door fitting and make sure they are properly aligned.

do u think the proton service centre can fix this?
*
I don't think so. Unlike tyres and engine noise that can be minimize by using sound proofing/dampening, wind noise are cause by the design flaw, which is quite hard to predict while in designing process, unless done in windtunnel. Maybe you can try to install wider airpress.. nod.gif

so, is your car producing loud wind noice as well?

how much does it cost for soundproof installation?
*
Wind noise only apparent when doing 120km/h++

Soundproof price depend on what material you use, whether bitumen or insuflex or both. And also on the 'brand' of the materials and where you want to soundproof (door, firewall, roof, boot floor..). Search around automotive garage subforum for price.

p/s: Does any waja cps owner here already use open pod..?  brows.gif

I think Campro engine not very suitable for open pod because its a hot engine unless proper heatshield and CAI being used. Furthermore, the standard air ramp is quite good also.

sub 9 second range for your century spin smile.gif

that time at 98km/h, u shifted gear, is it from 2nd to 3rd?

Yeah, but should have done it sooner as it already at rev-cut (7.2k rpm). laugh.gif

Guys, my car got problem. Brake problem to be exact. The rear passengger side brake is kinda 'locking' and produce screeching sound. I examine the the disc and found out that the disc is not very flat at certain place, thus creating the 'locking'. cry.gif

So, should I send it for warranty claim which could takes weeks, or just send it to skimmed. rclxub.gif

But 1 thing for sure, ur 2nd gear ratio very long

My 1.6 Wira 2nd gear can't reach close to 100km/h also

At 1st I also want to drag the 2nd gear till 100, but it already reach 7.2k rpm (rev cut) before 100 (but almost, maybe about 95). So, no choice, have to shift up.
