Yes there is a checklist. But I recommend you to check for any paint scratch as my car had a rusted paint scratch when I receive it on the 1st day and I insisted on the SA to repaint for me but he refuses. You can check according to the checklist. And plus, check for any power steering fluid got reduce or not. This happened to my one.

How to check for the power steering fluid? means if it is fall below minimum level then got leakage issue?
Wow just found today got huge discount RM1K + free tinted RM150 voucher. Very great deal indeed icon_rolleyes.gif

1)check engine got sound or not. especially IAFM box.
2)check all the accessories such as power window, steering can pusing or not, etc..
3)steering fluid enough or not.

Just my 2 cents. i also not quite expert in car also biggrin.gif

hi all
juz wanna to share and ask.
for 1st 1000km service, i used petronas synthium 800 for engine oil, and this is wat i feel
- now i heard the engine very noisy compare before service
- sometimes my saga like no power (my car is auto). Before this the rpm when change gear is about 2.4 - 3rpm but

now sometimes only when rpm reach 3.5 - 4rpm, then only the gear changed, dat time aircond is turn off.
- look like FC oso become bad, before this, can get bout 180km for rm 30 but now only 160++km only..haih...

so now for 2nd service 5000km, i plan to change the engine oil to shell helix 7 10w/40w since many ppl said dat the engine oil is good for saga..
im just wonder can or not change from sythium 800 15w/50w to shell helix 10w/40w coz im not too expert in engine oil, just scare will effect something to engine if change the oil.

thanks
*
Yup. i heard alot of using shell helix 10w/40w was good for your BLM engine.
I maybe switch to it in 2nd service. First service plan to use mineral oil for better "break-in".
Let the engine feel the heat first before start using good engine oil smile.gif

Hi all,

my colleague is going to get his new MANUAL Saga this Friday.  his salesman allows him to test the car and choose one!  need advice on what to look for and what to check at the site.

please kindly advice.

thanks all.

remember to check engine sound whether it sound smoothly and without "tak tak tak/" sound of course. ps: IAFM engine issue
Also check for power sterling oil whether it is at full and the mileage of it. the smaller more better.
Else it been test drive by someone else before biggrin.gif
