Hi guys, I would like to ask if my Waja 4g18 can go up to Genting?

I'm very worry that it will overheated or whatsoever during half way up.

It's 4g18, 7 years car, mileage around 110k.

Do I have to switch to 3, 2 or L when going up?

How about going down? I put 3 enough? or 2?

Actually what do you guys mean by proper maintenance? I send for maintenance every 5,000 as requested, does it mean okay?

How do I know if I need to use D or 3, 2, L to go up hill?

When coming down? Use 3, 2, or L? or just put D and step on brake..

every 5k service then it should be ok! make sure ur brakes is in proper condition before going up!

when going up 3 definitely no power... so use 2 until u feel like very high rev then put to 3! When going up hill, you will have to rev to 4k rpm  or even 5 k rpm depending on your drive... when coming down u can use D, 3 or 2 ... not L! the reason of putting to 3 or 2 when goin down hill is to prevent ur brake pads over heat by using engine braking!

Still quite not confidence for driving up to Genting. Worried that the temperature will rise up when you say need to rev up to 4-5k rpm, so does it mean when my temperature rise above the middle line, I have to stop by side already?
