Anyway, besides, talking about the aesthetic of Viva and the version and model and what not.

What about the technical parts? Maintanence? Etc?

I've been into my Viva for months, and notice quite a few things and manage to learn it.

Anyway, lets start first as what is your preferred engine oil for your Viva and notice any difference when using it? Currently, I'm using a 1.0 Auto and Castrol Magnatec 10-40W for my engine oil which is so much better, comparing to the previous Mineral shit that Perodua gave made by Petronas.

Difference?

CASTROL MAGNATEC 10-40W:

- Recommended change interval is 5K-8K. Or, within 8 months.

Smoother engine performance and less noise. Don't notice any fuel consumption difference overall, gives you more confidence when it comes to high revving your engine on highways or when overtaking. Even quiter when it is stationary. Doesn't give out that loud noise.

PETRONAS PERODUA (Don't know what line):

- Recommended 5K. Or withing 8 months.

Rough noise to the engine, sounds like a god damn proton. Just feel that my engine has to give more effort when accelerating and rough feel to it when it revs.

My mileage is still below 30K, so about gear box oil. Still waiting for its time to be change. Guys and girls, when it comes to car, its not always about aftermarket hardwares. Its what making it running better.
