QUOTE(dARKaNGEl @ Mar 8 2010, 09:40 PM) that's not special feature. It's stated in the car manual clearly. You should read it. I practically read the entire thing after I got my car. You can also set that the alarm don't make any sound and the signal lamp just flash when lock/unlock. also useful is to set your trip meter display to permanently show the mileage/distance to empty etc and make it not go back to the clock display. Added on March 8, 2010, 9:49 pmwhat's with the 3S Mutiara Damansara SC? today been calling total of 5 times at different time want to make appointment, phone been ringing so long but no one answers..

Yesterday I went to glenmarie sc for checking/changing the radio system. I've problem that the cd player cannot read any type of cd. And guess what. Their told me that I need to wait for 3 whole week just to send for waranty. Damn.... Previous sc (when I do first service) say that only take one week. What the **** with glenmarie sc???? Added on March 9, 2010, 11:16 amQUOTE(vson @ Mar 8 2010, 09:06 PM) GUYS! i got somethings interesting info to share out with you all... I had done some search on this thing called MAGNETRAP that SC ask you to install when you go for service... have a look at the following link and judge yourself...Fuel Saving Things That is not what seem to be  and some of the ppl also commented the following: In the unlikely event that an oil filter is thoroughly clogged due to the user not having it changed for a long time, say after 20-30000 km, a safety valve opens to allow the dirty oil to recycle back into the engine. The engine will still run but but it would suffer from extreme damage due to excessive particles reintroduced back into the engine. Eventually the engine will overheat and fail. The magnetrap is meant to trap these excessive particles to stick to the inner walls of the tin can, thus being a second filter for the oil. B U T , Both the pistons and the engine block, which creates the particles due to abrasion caused by the pistons vigorously rubbing up and down the bores, are made of ALUMINUM ALLOY. A Q U E S T I O N ... Since when aluminum can be ATTRACTED by magnets? D O N ' T B E L I E V E? Use a magnet and try to stick it to the engine block. I never install these magnetrap. My friend told me about these nonsense before this. This post has been edited by zhnme523: Mar 9 2010, 11:16 AM

After waiting 1 month+ for the new rear brake mechanical kit to arrive and install, problems with the click/tick sound STILL occur.
Sigh**.. Hopeless SC cant solved the problem at all..
Wonder what else I can do except for keep complaining to SC and claim new parts all over again.
Pls advice fellow members...
Thanks.

I sent mine to be rectified 4 times to date on a 6 months old car. This time around... it lasted longer with no symptoms of the sound recurring. Lets hope.
