Its ppl going too slow till they fall asleep.. and cause less concentrate..haha QUOTE(-nana- @ Sep 7 2010, 03:53 AM) erm, just wanna ask around, anyone has done their 20000km service ? wanna know how much is it . thanks. rm346.75 -changed gasket, SP3 ATF, spark plug, brake fluid, oil filter

Uncle Scrooge is back! Senior Member 1,372 posts Joined: Nov 2004 From: Heritage Waterfront City	QUOTE(jasondotcom @ Sep 7 2010, 09:12 AM) dude, could you please state what tire size you are using on 16 inch? Very nice rim design. I can't wait to change mine. I am aiming for 16 inch also instead of 17 inch due to various reasons. AND, do you mind posting bigger sized pictures of it side ways (viewing the whole side of the car). Or mb email me at nhaixin69@yahoo.co.uk ?? I hope you don't mind no problem, im using 16'' due to lot traveling in city..not much for long distance..if using 17" more power to move from static position. using auto with 1.6 summore its depend on user preference though. QUOTE(Beogatts @ Sep 7 2010, 10:24 AM) i believe uve bought both taiwan made rims n tires. m i correct? tire brand KENDA rite? wat size? n wats the wide size of ur rims? 7jj or 6.5jj? got tax?? !!! i dunno since im noob about car accessories its 7jj as far as i know, rim: W961 16'' 8H HB using tyre 205/50X16 KR10..and yes that right..KENDA tyre. workshop said their origin from japan. and i dont mind since my budget really constraint as long my journey is safe.

Senior Member 1,372 posts Joined: Nov 2004 From: Heritage Waterfront City	QUOTE(Kevio @ Sep 7 2010, 11:52 PM) u serious? u filled the tires with nitrogen gas??? this is something new 2 me...is it supposed 2 b better? yeah..me too.. but from my friends recommendations, tried it out and feel quite lighter.. dunno if this just placebo effect QUOTE(Beogatts @ Sep 7 2010, 11:55 PM) yeah..kind of high price like hongzheng said.. but its all good. just like wat uve purchased. dont feel regret.. the weight of ur rims r stated on the in side part.. i dont tthink Kenda is from japan. kenda company itself established in Taiwan. but u can check on ur tires where they were made in.. keep the ori one.. later if u wanna claim warranty, just switch back to ori. will slightly save fuel. that the lowest price i can get in east coast..but im not survey all the places though..ramadhan day very busy on the street..while waiting my car at workshop theres a small accident between viva & saga aeroback. until im going home(about 6.50pm) they dint settle yet btw, my ori tyre already fitted to my dad's wira..hehe err, 1 noob questions, proton give how many warranty to our car? i thought 3 years/50,000km?

Senior Member 1,372 posts Joined: Nov 2004 From: Heritage Waterfront City	QUOTE(wilsonjack228 @ Sep 15 2010, 10:10 PM) Yes there is , next is 6109KM which make me confuse oh cause i thought 5k is 4K + 1K(1st service) its stated in ur bill also QUOTE(jasondotcom @ Sep 16 2010, 01:12 AM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « - in fact anywhere between the low and max line is absolutely fine. anything above the max line is NOT. There is a reason why the max line is there. It is not to be overshot by 1cm or even 1mm. Max line means max. Never exceed it. in fact i prefer my engine to be half filled rather than max filled. why? much lighter engine.... really makes a lot of difference. -yes u are right. more less that kinda scenario.... For over 10 years driving owning couple cars and driving few others.... i always have problems with workshop mechs OVERFILLING the engine oil. It goes from bawah pokok mechs till the soo called "pros" in Service Centres. My ex MyVi....... always overfilled. Screw them all the time. Now my Persona. Same thing. Some more telling me in the face that CAMPRO NEEDS 4L of engine oil SHIT?! Last service i went it goes like this:- Mech: draining the oil... Me: eh, later dun pour all the 4L oil into the engine. Leave out some.... me showing how much to leave out Mech: Oh okay. Me: Observing.... Mech: Time for refilling...and started pouring the oil Me: Eh remember ah dun overfill. Just leave this much out....me showing it again how much to leave out by hand Mech: But Campro engines need all 4L engine oil.....continues pouring...... Me: eh please.... dun gimme that nonsense ok.... who said? It is always OVERFILLED. That i have to go to the trouble of getting it drained the next morning. Mech: Mb u bought the 5L pack? Me: Look.... Campro does not need 4L of engine oil OKAY. It is stated in the book and the last time one of u did that it caused me having to drain it out the next day. And it was way over the max line on the dip stick when checked early morning. Mech: Ok ok.... puts down the bottle.... check dipstick.... noticed that its not max level yet. Me: Its ok... i will refill it later if not enough. I know what i am doing. Mech: Checks again and started engine letting it idle for while before shut down. Rechecks the level.... Me: Keeping a sharp eye.... Mech: Reaches the bottle again.... and started to pour.... Me: eh enough i said.... (after shown the level on the dipstick).... Mech: not enough later ur engine jam.......continues pouring..... Me: Look man, i said enough is enough ok! ENOUGH!!!!!!! me snatching the bottle away from him Mech: Ok ok.... then finish up everything else before passing the keys to me........ What a fing idiot....... CAMPRO needs whole bottle of 4 liters of engine oil BULLSHIT. salute u bro..haha.. This post has been edited by MjMax15**: Sep 16 2010, 09:16 AM

I have installed Pivot VS-1 and some Grounding wire to my family's exora , I can say - Slightly increased in Low-torque pickup - Lower engine fan noise - Increased Headlight brightness - Lower FC Never face such problem lo in the exora .. last time went up genting 5-6 person + luggage also no cut off wao , nicely done .. this should me pin in the first page to let other know what to do in case some of those problem occur hehe..sorry for my poor english i meant my car need more power to move = more FC btw, ericteoh grounding cable so far got good review. ill try install pivot + custom grounding thanks
