Not sure why, find it an akward position (console too low) when elbow is rested on top of console. Then rest right elbow at car door. Haha.. I use non box type. So you can rest your elbox ontop of the tissue as well. Other than that, i see people put on top of dash, think will block view during driving. So up to you to be creative. i had been using sunshade clip tissue box holder.... stable and wont block any view.. http://world.taobao.com/item/525240412867.htm?spm=a312a.7700714.0.0.eOcKlf#detail Edited February 1, 2016 by Redman 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumquat 3rd Gear February 2, 2016 Share February 2, 2016 After refilling the QQ with Esso95 for a few tanks, I switched over to Shell95 to see if there was any difference and as with all my previous rides, there was slight improvement in FC. But what surprises me was that with Esso95, sometimes there is some light jerk and vibration in the engine when I allow it to freewheel to a stop. With Shell95, I have not experienced it. With Shell95, it feels like there is a slightly better response in the pick up too. Anyone with their own comparison results from the other local petrol? SPC? Caltex?

My 2 previous rides register better FC on Esso95 than Shell95 so I'm sticking to Esso95 with my dbs esso card. Esso mart has more variety too, polar n delifrance n dbs atm. Also they don't charge exorbitant prices on hoonkee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caltex? not all RON 95 are made the same. What you experienced with Esson95 seem to be engine knock....especially on mid-lower revs as you mentioned. When engine knocks and you have not modded your car, then it means your RON is too low. is yours 1.2T? my own experience with turbos (subaru HPT and saab LPT) is that they need at least RON98 to perform decently.

So with one company that I know , if you were buying 92 they would up the specs and blended and give you something higher say 94 and you would have thought this petrol is better than the other brand in which case they built your loyalty to their brand (you would swear their 92 or 95 is better than the other ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a 1.2T. Doesn't sound like an engine knock and so far have been almost impossible to replicate. It's almost the same engine shake when starting it on a cold morning. I heard about using at least 98 too but a lot of owners of the 1.2T are on 95 and the manual says min 95 so I thought should be fine.

He claim many drivers had similar issues and after disabling the start/stop they didn't encounter the issues anymore. Headunit is really an absurd excuse! If it's headunit I wound have demand they change another model immediately and UK drivers aren't using our local fitted headunit. sad to say... I still encounter the power loss even when I follow their SOP on switching off the start/stop. sometimes, I feel like a pilot.. turn off this, switch off that.. then can move off.

But in real world especially in our hot weather, pumping 95 gives all sort of sudden engine shudder when the engine is pushed. By the very nature of turbo engine, the engine compression is higher and margin of error is tighter compared to an NA. another way to test is to pump a few tanks of 98...see if the problem exist at all under all engine load and temperature. Anyway, just a suggestion for you to consider when you troubleshoot your problem. Cheers! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stock rim of the QQ1.2T has large triangle and small triangle. In addition, the inner edge has a L shaped lip. See attached photo. The corners are the most difficult to clean with the brush.So this brush does the job well. It has a curve shape and its width fits the small triangle and the inner edge. See how it fits nicely into rim of my colleague's 1.2. You can get it for less than $1.90 at one of those Chinese chain shops selling anything from batteries to pails etc. Edited February 2, 2016 by EricChan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
