Today i finally found the sports rim centre cap for less than rm10 per piece(imitation, taiwan made) at spare parts shop !hehe..

If you want to enjoy V-POWER, better do it now..When the monkey boys on top annouce RON95 will be the mainstream..RON97 Vpower price sure gila siaoo. Remember the time where fuel price is @ rm2.70 per litre, Vpower is rm3.15 per litre..Crazzeee doh.gif
Honestly speaking, i feel no difference  smile.gif But if Cupcai pump Vpower, i can feel the Vroom.. laugh.gif

Yesterday i fetch my friends, they said PerSona ride is comfy, somemore praise my machine looks like showroom car(mine already 1year 6months).. wub.gif *syiok sendiri*  laugh.gif  laugh.gif

hi guys, last week i go to my 5 service(major service on 20000km) for my Persona... and i feel like my car engine is noisy..  ohmy.gif then i complain to the mechanic who work at SC.... when he test it and hear the sound, he ask me " are u using shell petrol..??" and im shock  shocking.gif and answer "yes" ... then he say, "the sound come from INTAKE VALVE coz the Shell petrol so 'nipis and halus'.. so, the intake will noise when knock the head....

then i tell him"shell petrol is better than other petrol, how can it will make problem" then he say, "shell petrol is good but the PROTON Engine is not good for Shell" and he laugh... doh.gif  doh.gif  and he say, lot of Persona owner got complain about this and when he ask them what petrol they use.. their answer always "Shell"..

so, he ask me to change the petrol to CALTEX or Petronas... and hear the engine sound....

now, i also change the petrol to caltex and now i feel like the sound is decrease...

so, what your opinion guys..?? hmm.gif  it is really the petrol problem or what..?? hmm.gif
*
hmmm.....how about esso??..is it noisy compare to shell, caltex/petronas??...which petrol give more pickup smoother??

Dark color, great for reflection, color depth is better. My favourite paint for detailing work is RED! , follow by dark blue...
Lighter color, car looks visually bigger.

Already done 25k km..top speed 190kmh. It take miles to achieve 190kmh..after 175kmh, it is very slow. Once i see the needle tick in between 190-200kmh..somewhere 195kmh..BUT that's not true, have change to smaller wheel..so the speedo is faster abit..

My house 100metres behind is SHELL. Within 1km radius, my area have 1 Petronas, 3SHELL, 1Caltex, 1Esso..
I feel Esso synergy F1 give more power..CALTEX is good for mileage. I am not loyal to any fuel brand, take turn to refuel different petrol..haha tongue.gif
*
haha...i see...mine mostly stuck at 180km... smile.gif .....but reached once 190km... laugh.gif abit downhill...haha....i guess will stick to esso/mobil.... icon_idea.gif ...btw u changed ur tires to 55series right?...hows the pickup and fc??...faster? any changes on fc??

same here, but concerned on the FC
hope to know how much is the full tank and what's the distance persona can go before refueling?
my gf's City VTEC less than RM70 full tank can go at least 550km, city and highway drive, average speed is 100-110km/h
*
well....just telling based on my 1year++ onwership, mine was the first batch...erm fuel consumption not a great thing to shout about for this car. as u know city vtec same fuel and much better compare to persona in fuel consumption department. but u can get up to 500km if u drive purely on highway as for me, my full tank can give me around 350km++ with highway-70% (80km-100km) and city 30%( jam most of the time). if pure city with jam and revving ,stop and go traffic, i will get 250km++ only laugh.gif ... full tank costs RM63-35liters....2nd batch persona have bigger fuel tank if im not mistaken...

as for the ride, i can say the ride is smooth/supple, cornering good as well that give u sharp turning and stable, highway cruising stable up 170km slightly modification on tires and suspension will give u more stable ride... sound insulation is good for the price of the car, the ride is quiet and smooth.

problems on the car: erm...not really..just normal tear and wear. there are one weird sound when acceleration, but it is solve due to the metal bar hitting on the other metal....now smooth and quiet...dont have any plastic panels vibrating when going trough rough road/uneven roads...

if u looking in fuel consumption department...then the city is ur choice.... as for me, i dont bother about the fuel consumption...

wah, replied so fast..

humm.. so it's better to apply rain-x, eh? afraid the speed is not fast enough in super-heavy rain.. u know how the weather is nowadays.
*
dont apply rain-x if u wish to put silicone wipers.....as for me, after i put rain-x..and use silicone wipers, the wiping not smooth and freaking noisy/shudder non stop...now changed back to rubber ones quiet and smooth..but sometimes abit vibrating also.....regret putting rain-x... laugh.gif

Izit the sounds coming front FR engine bay area wile turning on uneven road????
it's like metal knocking sound!
*

[/quote]

Problem:1) The sound occur from front suspension (feel like something loose) when running on uneven road (more obvious when free the gear).
2) The metal knocking sound also occur when turning on uneven road too....complaint at SC many time but not solve.....
