QUOTE(afosz @ Nov 24 2010, 03:02 PM) How's the driving ? Got bumpy feeling or not ? If too big, to me better change one pair, for safety. WTA, if ATF due date for service soon, but my engine oil service still got another 4k. If I wait to service ATF along with engine oil later, can ? Or preferable do it now ? Shouldn't be any problem..how long you need to drive the 4k? Your ATF change every year? or 20k KM?

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Nov 24 2010, 05:39 PM) I think ATF fluid change is quite important. Our wira AT transmission is not very robust to begin with in the first place  . But then again if you don't really push your car. My mechanic change my brakes to Ferodo brakes for RM160 per set. Hows the price? But not sure which model is it  . When he took out to inspect my old pads got cracks all over the place  . QUOTE(afosz @ Nov 24 2010, 05:42 PM) Ferodo is a good brand I think. Few months back, my friend got quoted for RM 185 or somewhere near RM 200. Wow..so expensive..is it better then Bendix Metal King Titanium?

QUOTE(afosz @ Nov 25 2010, 01:41 PM) Tires are for your own safety. Don't want the worst case to happen, because you already know the problem but choose to ignore instead. fastreader : For Wira, I don't think there's any particular problematic batch. Just get any, but the condition varies depending on the previous owner. Recommended to get 1.6A, fc way better than 1.3 and 1.5 since your concern is city use. The feeling is more comfortable and safer compared to Kancil, plus you can cruise up to 120-140 kmph without the feeling the car wants to fly  Yeah..driving 140KM/h with no feeling.. For Kancil, you want to drive 80KM/h..you will feel the engine like suffering

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Nov 25 2010, 09:09 PM) Lineage: Its normal loh. The oil will sure change its properties due to getting heated up. I think its fine as long sludges don't start forming. How to check whether the sludge is start forming or not?When I open up engine oil cap, all black colour..lol...

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Nov 25 2010, 09:56 PM) Its normal for it to be black because when combustion happen in the engine, carbon is produced as a by-product. These carbon is then absorbed by the oil. The carbon will be disposed of during oil change. I think if you check your engine oil (especially those mineral type) a week after oil change, its black liao. When you got some solid or undissolved "milk powder", I think you really need an oil change  I went over 4k km before for my oil change, when the mechanic release the stopper below, no oil came out. He had to cucuk the hole a bit then my car started to "lao sai". Oh..I see..Using semi syn engine oil..besides good performance, the oil will clean the engine as well right?
