Yeah. For me, I was thinking of Bardahl. RM90 for 4l is kinda tempting.
You can gauge it for yourself. As some here have mentioned, different tires, etc. But based on my own experience with the stock Silverstone tires in town driving, I normally need to maintain it every 3 - 4 weeks. If you notice that when you pump the tire, there is a lot of pumping needed and if your FC increases, then you probably need to pump the tires earlier.
I have the same sound as well. Planning to go tell the SC during my upcoming service.
Do you mind listing the items in your bill? It seems quite a lot for a 30K service. 20K is the major service, normally.
Same here as well. Every now and then, the car is just difficult to start. So I wind up having to keep pulling the ignition until it starts. Will complain to the SC as well.
Thanks for the input. Will try and make up my mind by the time the service is due.

I no longer servicing my car at the Proton Edar SC. Currently at those shop out there located near Sri Rampai. Basically the items and services included in the total billing are as listed below :-

1. 2 units x Front Tyres - Silverstone *the ordinary model been used with the car
2. Engine Oil (Hi-Rev SM600 SAE20W - 50)
3. Oil Filter
4. Air Filter
5. Tyre and Alignment Balancing (Front Left side) Change a new metal rod to re-adjust the alignment
6. Installation & Labour Charge

That's all I guess .. smile.gif

no point of complaining to SC...they would just change the spark plug for u
but the problem isn't on the spark plug
it's just going to cost u money only

Well, my spark plugs are due for changing anyways. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(omara86 @ Jan 30 2011, 05:38 PM)
My personal tips to avoid that:

1) when stopping, left engine idle for at least 10 sec b4 turn off engine

2) when wanna start, put the key to on for at least 10 sec let the fuel pump pumping 1st then start engine

I never phailed to maintain that.. 1 yr alrdy no prob...

I do (2) all the time. I do (1) only if the fan is running and only if I have time. hmm.gif

Mind listing the prices too?

I think the tires sorta explain it. And I suspect those metal rods, are a rip off.

And a word of advice. Don't use those Silverstone tires. They suck.

I'll need to look for the receipt inside my car .. The kinda metal rod that fix the tyre alignment cost me about RM40 and as for the tyres both cost me about RM200 with installation charges.
What makes you said they suck ? They do recommend me other brand as well .. such as Falken and Sime Tyres .. I got no idea which to choose but I do have some bad issues with Falken with my Old Proton Saga as it doesn't really have a firm grip when emergency brake that time. Got accident twice ..

Any of you guys encounter the engine hard to start up randomly, doesnt matter if its cold or warm? Car is only 7 months old, battery going to kong? Usually it can start up with 1 crank though.

Happened to me yesterday. But i turned off the engine, and tried again after that and it worked. And i always switch to ON first for a few seconds before starting the engine. :/

I wanted to use that too but after some search on the web, i don't really want to try that.
RM90 for a 100% synthetic oil + lotsa fakes out there?
No thanks.

Especially during hot day, after turn off the aircon, if here the fan is spinning, let the fan stop 1st before switch off the engine. Noticed alot of ppl straight turn off engine, let the fan cool the engine 1st. wink.gif

it's all abt the brand
go with those reputable brand
dn't go to those brand name like very funky name...dn't even care it's made in japanese, germany or USA...many are fake oil...cuz they just print it there....all actually are local
usually fake oil is cheap
and those reputable brand oil are a bit expensive than usual
