location: shell petrol pump bentong
date: 3/2/2011
time: around 10pm

i'm entering the shell to refuel and saw an ins*** at one of the pump but with the orange/red cone located at the back.
there is a chinese uncle and his son around the car talking to the phone. at first i want to refuel at a pump far from the ins*** but there is a que and the pump beside it is empty, so i go on. trying to calm myself and then start refueling. later the uncle come near and then start a conversation..

uncle: hello, sudah lama ka pakai ini kereta?
me: sudah lama.. lebih 2 tahun..
uncle: saya punya kereta ada bateri problem la.. you punya ada ka?
me: tak ada.. sudah lama pakai, ok saja.. original bateri tahan lebih 2 tahun tapi sekarang sudah tukar.
uncle: haiya.. saya punya kereta, baru 1 minggu pakai sudah 2 kali ini problem jadi..
me: problem macam mana?
uncle: dia punya power tak ada, lampu semua tak mau hidup.. start engine lagi la tak boleh!
and then come his son..
uncle's son: paa.. ini lancer la, mana ada sama dengan kita punya proton.. abang, ini lancer kan? itu proton tiru ini kan?
me: yupp.. betul. saya punya lancer, pakai sudah lebih 2 tahun pun tak ada masalah..
uncle: bukan ini sama macam kita punya kereta ka? tengok itu bentuk sama saja..
uncle's son: paa.. jangan kacau ini abang la, dia punya lancer.. original.. tak sama macam kita punya kereta..

me just smile while listening to their conversation and later they move to their car..
at a moment, i feel like.. don't know how to say but i'm so glad driving the original..

to the uncle, feel sorry to him.. a new car for chinese new year should bring cherish but now being a nightmare..
and the worse is it happened on the first day of the new year..

so.. to the ins*** owner outside there, please beware.. don't just turn off the car anywhere..
lucky to the uncle that his car broke down inside a town.. if in a deserted area, i dunno laa..

Unquote!

Just the time when i'm back to Kuantan. Really2 wish could see Inspira by roadside especially Bentong  . even on the road here its kinda rare. practically mine alone.    is this source reliable? 

Any inspira owner got that prob..

they cant target anything else like the engine because its the exact same thing, so they went after batteries, next up I guess it would be wipers blades and inspira rims stories for part 2 and 3

erer.... those who got their car.... isit come with floor mat like tis type?

i oso not sure... just do the normal 1st 1000km service, then asked them to check the front absorber (they added a bump stopper), adjust the headlights and wheel alignment...

but there was quite a number of people awaiting their cars at the same time too...

When to service car on last saturday for 1000 km.

Decided to use fully syn

Just wanna share how to adjust the low beam light

The above picture shows a hole where the screw driver (+) need to be inserted. If u look side way, you will see a long piece of metal that the screw driver also needs to go through. Once in, just turn.

U r right but with the screw driver easier.

Its the same assembly with 2 way dial

all bros here, another question, i am planning to retint the ecotint security film, as the IRR is kinda low, and I prefer a cool car.

SA advised me to tear out the original film, and retint it, cause with double tint, warranty will be void for the original tint, as well as the new tint. Is that true?

If yes, what security tint is good? SA recommend Raytech, as Vkool is seriously too expensive for me. Tks.....

Added on February 15, 2011, 9:06 amAnybody knows how to get the parts manual of 4B11?

Need to look at the engine diagram

1) ngek ngek sound in the morning
2) can hear tire sound from inside car when driving
3) sound of air-con compressor clicking every few mins when car idle
4) car very heavy when driving slow..need to tekan minyak more and then the car roar like thundercat and fly past other car
4) high fuel consumption - 9.8km/l (ron 97)

anyway, it's minor issues for me coz with RM 92k, i got a 2.0 litre car with paddle shift

can't afford and don't want to loan so much to get a T or H with 1.8litre.

That's fast for a new car..... Usually should be 30kkm or depending to your driving habits.... May need to do it earlier than 30kkm.... But Mitsubishi's CVT is 40kkm if not mistaken.....

Driving around Cheras bumps, so far no more nyek nyek sound lo 

It depends on how to look after your car lo.

For me, every week after long distance sure wash and if need to wax then will wax it lo.

SG is just a coating to make your cleaning job easy lo, still need to do the cleaning one lah bro 

As for those with the money, itu kita panggil rezeki lah  No need to compare lah.

Masing-masing pun ada rezeki.

For me, I prefer to do research 1st and look around for opinions, then put aside or slowly kumpul

duit to do the upgrade and modding lo.

For those who have the cash go ahead and upgrade lah, after all it's your drive mah.

You will really enjoy your ride if you love to drive in it

Just to share, when I got the car last year, next day went to change the gear oil already.

Flush the old gear oil and you will see a lot of small small silver particles like dust.

Those are tiny metal dust cause it's a new car and will act like sand paper on your CVT system.

So your CVT cepat haus lo.

After second gear oil change, no more or really less dust liao   

Now change to Mitsubishi's Diamond ATF SP III gear oil already 

80kkm? That's long..... Are Mitsubishi really confident on their stuffs or they want to do more business? And this gearbox can cost rm30000 easily....
I think the begining few years, changing it around 30kkm will be better.... If the cost of changing the gear oil is rm300, you drive it for 10 years and every year change once, it is only rm3000. If change regularly can prevent gearbox failure, I will do this.... Spending rm3000 to protect the gearbox will be worth....

i will get my gear oil change every 20k km as well, but it cost around rm 400 right?

erm... lets say if i got my car, and i wanna change the gear oil, where should i go??? any1 puchong here???

Yes, so our friend hopefully didnt go top up ATF or else....
