sort of la... my engine now feel smoother... very the quiet one....

my friend engine (he's using gen2 1.6 campro) also feel smoother and can go 170km/h++ without any vibration (thou he really needs to change a new front tayar)

haha same here, full bottle ceratec ma.
max speed 160-165km/h (give/take around proton's advertised speed of 162km/h)

barely any vibration, more towards the cheapo chassis flexing around, not to mention the floaty feel being a light hatchback 1.5l car, severe wind noise/resistance and you know, proton being a proton. lol

at most theres the usual high rpm engine whines (post 5k rpm and still flooring accelerator pedal) which i believe shouldn't be anything to do with the engine/engine oil, i heard its due to the valves or chambers releasing pressure? not too sure on that though.

with new 15" rims upgrade and c.drive 2 tires, the car is a ton more stable, and NVH is also drastically reduced. just a pity i cant do much about the wind noise, and speeding too much too often in my car can be hazardous as it has zero modern safety features

talk about wind noise.... that gen2 also got that... 130km/h and start to hear wind noises....

hehehe yeah... driving kancil at top speed 130km/h++ at highway is not recommended.... feels like want to terbalik any given time lol!

with regards to the gen2, try chasis foaming to resolve the chasis flex.
im currently using only the lm ss 10/40 and i can hit up to 160. my cruising speed is 150.
so. next thing i wanna try is ceratec...

cant be helped, proton aerodynamics can only go so far. i believe the perdana (more towards a much heavier chassis and probably sound dampening) or FL/FLX would be the best in terms of aerodynamics.

anyways i personally recommend that you try LM for 1 OCI, then next OCI try ceratec full bottle. as you will know the before/after much more clearly. and be more convinced (or vice versa) if it is worth it or not

i want to try 10w40 after this. 10w30 is really best while u accelerating but my engine drinks the oil like nobody business... if i can get the 10w40 to at least slow down the oil drainage then i'll try ceratec full bottle....

yeah good call, no point to spend so much just to have it all leaked out lol. (though eventually on your OCI you will need to have it drained. just that by then majority of the ceratec will bond with your engine already

any site provide review abt ceratec?

i think their website got
not sure if got english, only saw their german page lol.

or just google it. additionally can read up some reviews including my review from thundergod_cid's (seller) LM sales thread

hopefully when i already have some money to do full overhaul (thinking of upgrading my kancil engine lol...) and the oil drainage problem is solved i'll be switching back to 10w30.... but in the mean time i have to settle for 10w40 and maybe another round i'll use ceretac full bottle....

if you're not really into performance/modding, can just settle for a complete overhaul/engine rebuild just to restore what is lost (leaks, power loss, color smokes lol) and thats it lo. exactly what i did.

too bad my engine ady specified xw50 and my heavy leaded foot high revving all day erry day, else ill give xw30 a try too LOL

seriously bro u should try..... i can hit 170km/h++ and i know i can go more with my friend gen2 but chickened out since i feel a bit wobbly on the steering wheel... (the front tyres are kindda bald and i was speeding when its raining lol).

chasis foaming yeah? i'll poison my friend to try that one after this....

im driving gen2 2007 edition 1.6 with 38k milleage..mind giving me suggestions on the engine oil to use..

- bang for the buck..?
- cheapest..?
- the best..?

thanks..

what engine and what grade of oil?

Added on February 8, 2012, 10:39 pmif you think magnatec is smooth... (i'll let the otehr forumers finish the rest of the sentence )

---

Added on February 8, 2012, 10:40 pmIf you are driving a campro, that's a noisy engine. Give the 10w40 liqui moly, qmax, torco, or pennzoil a try

Added on February 8, 2012, 10:49 pmhalf bottle sufficient for a kancil

I tot u using 40weight?

-bang for buck --> Any cheapo oil. Pennzoil is well balanced in terms of pricing and results
-cheapest --> Castrol GTX.. dont
- the best --> Liqui Moly, Qmax, Torco, Chemlube, Q8. Mind you, my 200hp 1.3 engine runs only on Liqui Moly's 10w40, and that's SEMI with a bottle of ceratec. No problems so far and I promise that you'll not be able to hear my engine on drive AT ALL

well, if everything is operating optimally, you'd be surprised on how well even our local p1/p2 cars can go. hell, i can go up to around 160km/h with zero modifications and on a 12 years condition car, not to mention having a heavy subwoofer in the trunk and dampened door panels (more added weight lol)

though if you ask me personally, id actually am OK with the weights as it gives my car a lot more solid/stable feel, and not feeling like its going to "lagi best" (lol p2) itself to hell. lol

Added on February 8, 2012, 11:05 pmyeah, as the engine is xw50 so -10 lo. i actually wanna go xw30 since im so rev happy, but since everyone advice against it, might as well not then lol

btw, castrol gtx cheapest? i thought there are many other "brand x" or worse, recycled oils out there. "asal boleh jalan, OK la."

'Fixed..

but can smell your car from far woh.

thanks..thundergod..ill surely consider to try Liqui Moly or Torco for my next service..

Dont remember lols.. Its been awhile.. But im sure its 5k KM.. Definitely not 10-40w.

Hey there...

I'm driving a 660cc kancil (1996 model), what is the recommended oil engine. Currently using 10-30W Castrol GTX...

Is Castrol magnatec good?

poison for lm xw30 semi synthetic?
