What's with the double standards of engine oil change intervals? It is stated black and white in the service booklet. After 10k service mark.... it is EVERY 10K interval for servicing. So why SC states the next 5k oil change interval otherwise? I am going to follow the service booklet. To hell with the 5k service. What a rip off. And by it, i am still within the warranty...


hmm...never notice about this in the booklet, if so i guess i will still going service it every 5k. But surely those not in the booklet, i will service it my self...kacang saja ma, flow out & refill back...saving for new facelift tail light...haha...

hmm.. i did my 10k service last saturday... i ask if i can use fully syn.. they say they don't recommend...because sometimes will cause latch to make noise.. not sure what is that.. but then when its time to pay.. they say i can come and service during 20k.. because they already install magnetrap.. they didnt ask but just install..i argue a bit but i didnt ask them to remove cause i want to try and see the difference.. glenmarie sc really like to do this kind of thing...
please do share with us, what is the different with that magnetrap...hehe

I have been servicing at Proton authorized service agent so i do not get all this shit... hehehe... But then when something goes wrong and needed warranty claim.... then i go to SC to do.
Actually main reason i do not go to SC to conduct my warranty services is because, need to make appointment and wait for quite a while to get it done. If i do it at the authorized service agent, i can get to choose a wider variety of oils and also, servicing time is far far shorter / faster compared to SC and some more, i can be up close and personal with my ride when its being serviced

. Another reason was, the service agent i go to... they open even on saturday noon till 6pm. So it suits my timing as i am always busy with work.

in my place here, make appointment & just go and queue up i dont think any different. even thought i have made the appoinment on 8am, i have to wait for min 30 min to register, after that i have to wait another min 30 min to wait for the mechanic to take the car to the services area. that mean i min have to waste 1 hours waiting even i have made an appointment with SC...what the ......

if your is manual, may be is the clutch plate bearing. as that day when i was in SC, the BLM next to me also have such noise which sound like IAFM faulty....but when he hit the clutch, then the sound gone. when he release the clutch, then the sound is back...do try it...

Without any obstruction... i can use the remote as far as around
150 meters. Tested. If in normal parking area conditions... say... ermm... about 8 cars away. But what's the use if can use the remote far2 away... Later accidentally press it while in shopping mall or something.... make u worry only if its locked or unlocked.
150 meters away??????? 1 car width is less then 2 meters, then mean it was 75 cars away.....
