Guys had been driving my car for 2 years and now its clock at 52k.
1) Can i know how do i check whether my IAFM is still working? 2) I had brought my car out for service instead of proton, changed to 10-40w oil and seems like the car is smoother, that's all 3) regarding nissan clutch, how much would it cost changing them? 4) It seems like for manual transmission the gear vibrates quite alot, is there anyway to fix it?
*thanks for the key hole vibration info, i will get it fix asap.

QUOTE(Vincent_A8fm @ Nov 25 2010, 09:22 PM) stay on with ur blm bro.. 2nd hand is no better than ur blm... new hyundai accent / coupe (1/2 years) seems to be doing really good not in terms of fuel consumption but performance and also handling. somehow i started to feel 1.3M is not anymore a nice ride for 2 hours journey daily. Anyway BLM still pawns Myvi to be honest. haha *that is the reason why i would want to opt for some modification go give me some slight boost of power and energy. Now it seems like once the car hit 120km/h the extreme roaring sound will kick start. need some power to ensure 120km/h is smooth and silky on the road  will be going to go and check my absorber and suspension next month as well for some tuning.

QUOTE(adrianteddy @ Nov 26 2010, 01:36 AM) arghh, my blm 1.3 auto is underpower  low rev tak de power one  how to solve it ? That's why would really be great if someone can feedback on Power Booster Gold Turbo ECO + TURBO AIR BOOSTER (TAB), wonder how good would it be. For Saga i think the pickup isn't really that good but it's still pretty stable driving at 120km/h unlike Myvi.

QUOTE(limping @ Dec 3 2010, 09:50 PM) Alright! if i go for mineral oil 10-30W should it be ok? I am driving heavily 3 months 10k  on highway thus wanting to have a more regular check up on my car instead of waiting for 10k.

Anyway, seems like my back tyre on the back is lowered compared to the one on the left anyone know whether can i adjust the suspension for such case or do i need to change a certain thing? P/S: anyone knows any reliable mechanics in Shah Alam area? would be my 2nd time bringing my car outside of Proton Workshop.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Dec 7 2010, 06:01 PM) Of cos there are alot of non proton workshop who can do the service, i don think you need to worry too much. They back to Proton SC service just to retain warranty, not becos their good workmanship. I know there is alot workshop but is there any recommended. I've met too many cut throat workshop. Take there they ask me change this change that. i hate it when people ask me to change this and that when i know there is nothing wrong with my car. I want somewhere reliable.

hahaha nothing! around the same price rm16x Proton SC rm19x usually. but instead of using 15-50w oil i use 10-40w which is 30 bucks more expensive. oh ya and also change the air filter! which is not suppose to but i paid rm28 just to make sure the next time i service i can see the difference.
Breakdown! rm9x for 10-40w Shell oil rm28 for proton ori air filter rm4 for some getah which is suppose to prevent some minor oil leakage the rest workmanship.
This guy consider quite OK but his in Setia Alam i went to a few shop and ask here and there, say SAGA BLM is not suitable to use semi synthetic.... WTF!!! some bring in say eh your gear abit lose need change spring nah nah nah... fedup with this kind of mechanic. Baru sit in my car already know so much problem... Im driving about 150km per day i feel nothing.

QUOTE(Ped88 @ Dec 8 2010, 01:47 PM) Ya... I would like to know when is the exact date as well... My SA very stupid. I wanted to buy a car from him and so he helped me apply for the loan, now when my loan already approve, he said that the car no more stock and no more discount. I was buying M-Line M/T btw. Now he said I got 3 option, 1) take B-line, pay same deposit, and same monthly installment but I get the lower spec car 2) add RM3400 to get the m-line A/t 3) add RM4200 to get SE I was actually pissed off by this news but then I thought maybe I'm suppose to wait for the facelift?  go for persona then! ask him for discount year 2010 got stock or not. its good to squeeze them now coz year end, they need to clear 2010 stock.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Dec 8 2010, 02:53 PM) Not weird, for pickup is slightly better but FC is no different for me, even with full sync 5-40w now. Even oil manufacturer stated u only can get better FC by using <40w, which is X-30w oil. Anyway, different between full sync and semi sync is quite noticeable. Full sync long lasting, now my car adi 6.5k, the power still same as new oil change, if semi sync, >3k u can feel the engine sound is rough and less power. Added on December 8, 2010, 2:54 pmI will never use Shell 10-40w semi anymore. Worst than Petronas 15-50W semi. AGREE! Shell 10-40w really hopeless. anyway let's wait abang Alien recommend his oil. i really want his milleage! hahahaha.
