Nope, was a petronas user    When they started the ron95, i was still using petronas. I can felt the lack of power and my engine was noisier. Plus, my engine and hood will normally resonate a bit loudly around 2800rpm on 1st gear. But when using caltex, the resonance sound reduced a bit and gained some power compared to primax95 (but if course can't beat ron97's power). I started to use caltex when saw the advertisement on paultan and also bro loong comment after using it  (despite the nearest caltex station located around 4 - 5km from my house    )

i'm using shell helix hx7 10w-40, provided by sc

erm, at first pump...the effect can felt a bit different...but after 2nd or 3rd tank....i feel its much better than bhp ron95x2......havent compare with shell or petronas so im not sure.... the 10w40 is semi-synthetic......the oil is just nice for FC and also protection for campro engines.....

well using caltex engine oil with caltex fuel.....maybe better...BUT i dont think it effect so much...some may say yes some may not..up to the people view......

loong2020: currently wht 10w40 brand oil are u using? care 2 share?

previously was conti cc1.....went up 2times with my friends......ok..la..i would say BUT...its also easier to lock if the road wet and want to corner...   but never experience it on genting trip..... now with PP2 havent test yet on going up...maybe when holiday... but PP2 on wet even brake harder it wont easily lock.... ......aiya..persona stock tires 195/60.....change it to 195/55 like me....comfort wise still not bad and better handling also...less floaty feel when speeding........

thanks for da info bro!

dude..since ur engine oil is helix hx7....hows the engine performed?....and did felt any differences when u pump shell fuel compare to petronas & caltex..

haha, maybe i went down a bit too fast, since that was my 2nd time in genting, still inexperienced about the corners there 

but if convert to 195/55, the speedometer's accuracy sure affected right?
since i never changed to any other brand of engine oil (yet), so i can't comment on its performance and i never so far use shell petrol for my persona  maybe later i'll try it, but a lot of comments on the new shell95 are bad 

erm....yeap..but not much around 1-2km.........but its ok..la.......... but frm my gps, lets say meter is pointing 100km/h...the gps unit will show around 97.1km/h

using Mobil Super 2000 10w40 semi-synthetic....@ RM93 after discounted frm smiles points..... well i think will just stick to this engine oil as it give lighter acceleration and trusting that Mobil lubes are good....if you want better protection, can go for Mobil 1 0W40 which costs RM245....

can anyone confirm to me speaker size at d back? TQ

ooooo... fine, u managed to poison me    so need to save at least 2k to change new set tyres and rims all together starting now. ad07? re001? pp2? 

ur persona ia MT or AT?

mines is AT....now im in dilemma...dont know which brand oil tht i should use for my 3rd service....

whats the actual price of mobil super 2000? is it convenient to get at every stores?

normally 10w-40 oils can last till how many km's?

thanks again

mine is auto also......RM98...yeah,available at all esso/mobil station......lasting i normally change 5500-6500km....

haha.. but still need to try to find out. Who knows it might bring miracle to our car? 

Just tried mobil. The engine surprisingly quiet (less vibration), but the power is dull.
I wonder those tyres like goodyear eagle F1 or toyo that got V shape thread really good? they look canggih

thanks for the comment & u mentioned that every 1000km u will be servicing ur car right? it is ur time line or the oil's time line?

i mean i'll change every after 5000 or 6500.....

GoodYear F1 GSD3..
V shape tread ribs enhance wet performance, but it is Noisy...somemore dry grip nothing to shout about 

I would go for Gdyear F1 Assy..smallest size is 17" and above.
