Went to SC today complained about the headlamp. They tested by pouring water all over the front part but no sign of water entering the headlamp. So they cant make report. So gonna wait till rainy days and hopefully the mist appear again so that i can take photo of it.

Nothing wrong with my bulbs.. Whats in my mind now is the rusting wheel nuts.. even my 17 years old kancil's nuts never rust before..

want to ask sifus here which tyre is ok? on budget now. ask around Goodyear is kinda expensive RM170. One shop mechanic told me Dunlop is as good as Goodyear because Goodyear only name famous selling for RM125. Falken i read in forum here wear out pretty fast in few months time price RM130. Kinda love Goodyear since it last me 3 years/30k mileage. Silverstone and Sime is the brand to avoid i just read. There's another brand i haven't heard of H15 or something that cost RM125 even the taxi driver at the shop recommends. Hehe, first time replacing my tyres so kinda blur blur here. Thanks in advance for the comment

After my tyre botak, I upgraded the rims to 14" and use michellin tyre  ~ if I still using 12" rims, I will use bridgestone.

hi, am new in this section. pls allow me to intro: - chris - viva AT EZI - 2007 - green color - p.j.
Added on February 4, 2012, 8:49 ambrowsed thru some postings:
- headlamps "water/mist" issue: pls check the rubber seal at the rear of the headlamp. the part where u can remove to replace bulbs. in most cases, water goes in from there.
- tyres. this is the most important part of your car. pls avoid using cheapos.. i've tried GY ducaro - normal but not up to my expectations. 2 months i change liao.. now using kumho ku31 - very good on wet/dry. fyi size is: 165/55/14, got it for rm170 per pc i want can comment is, this kumho is better than sime/GY/A drive & falken ziex. falken tyres are only good from 912 onwards. anything below, pls avoid it..
